Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:

  • Discuss safety and environmental concerns in engineering design.
  • Analyse and study the interaction of assembly components.
  • Implement tolerance analysis/stackup seamlessly in engineering design process.
  • Simulate mechanical mechanisms and output the numerical data of important kinematic and dynamic design parameters.
  • Apply a wide variety of static and dynamic loads to accurately evaluate the design performance.
  • Determine the size of the actuators required for mechanical mechanisms under static and dynamic loads.
  • Optimize design alternatives and determine the best design option by comparing measurable design parameters.
