Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

The objective of this course is to introduce students with basics of testing in mechanical engineering. Additionally with the help of experiments the major manufacturing processes, strength of materials, structural analysis, additive manufacturing etc. are explained and discussed considering their applications in industry. Moreover, the basics of engineering materials, their properties, and material selection procedure for the manufacturing is discussed.

Course Content:

In this course several experiments will be conducted considering the mechanical properties of materials, manufacturing, strength of materials and design of an assembled mechanism beside with the cutting, drilling processes.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Understanding the problems encountered in testing procedure.
2) To select the test for the specific properties of the materials.
3) Perform welding, cutting, polishing.
4) Design a mechanism using additive manufacturing.
5) Be aware of various engineering tools commonly used in manufacturing and design.
