MAVE3620 Dynamic structures and applications Course description

Håndholdt kalkulator som ikke kommuniserer trådløst og som ikke kan regne symbolsk. Dersom kalkulatoren har mulighet for lagring i internminnet skal minnet være slettet før eksamen. Stikkprøver kan foretas.

The course is based on MAPE1300 Mechanics and MATS1500 Materials Technology.

En intern sensor. Ekstern sensor brukes jevnlig.

After completing this course, the student will achieve the following learning outcomes, defined as knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

Students can:

• understand the underlying principles of dynamics and control
• critically assess the feasibility of a dynamic system for a specific application
• apply the methods of analysis and design of systems for motion control
• explain the most commonly used components for such systems
• demonstrate understanding of the principles of mechatronics and dynamic structures monitoring
• demonstrate the knowledge of modern sensors and actuators used for monitoring of dynamic parameters

Skills

Students can:

• Apply the knowledge on dynamic structures’ behaviour to propose an efficient control method for a given application
• Propose a design of a robotic system to perform a specified task, commenting on critical aspects of the design and system performance
• Assess the type and range of parameters that needs to be measured for a safe operation of a dynamic structure.

General competence

Students can:

• Suggest methods for assessing structural integrity of a dynamic structure subjected to a short-term or a long-term loading, considering materials and purpose of the system.
• communicate about course related topics with others from the field.

Lectures, tutorials and project assignments.

No requirements

New exam spring 2020:

1. Portfolio (counts 40%). The portfolio consists of:

• 2 individual assignments
• 2 group assignments, 3-5 students per group.

The portfolio is graded as a whole and given one grade.

2: 3-hour home exam (60%)

Exam results can be appealed.

For the final assessment, a grade scale from A to E is used for passing (A is highest grade and E is lowest) and F for failing.

A combination of internal and external examiners is used regularly.
