Entry knowledge

Acknowledgement from course Calculations and Simulation in Machines Design (GKV). Furthermore, basic knowledge of electric drives.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

The course is evaluated by clasified credit.
Credit is awarded and evaluated on the basis of the simulation model, which will be elaborated during the term announced in the examination period.

The students’ participation and activity in seminars shall be checked. 100% participation in seminars is required; in case of absence, the student is obliged to substitute for the missed tuition in a way determined by the teacher.

Aims

The aim of the course is to acquire basic acknowledge of simulation software usable for simulations in the field of production machines (ADAMS, Matlab / Simulink).
The graduates will acquire and extend their knowledge of simulation methods in the field of production machines.

Study aids
