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.

No requirements

No coursework requirements.

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.

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

The candidates for this subject are doctoral students in library and information science but the course is also relevant for doctoral students in cultural studies, cultural sociology, and political science.

Aiming primarily to cover the needs of PhD students admitted to the PhD program in library and informations sicence at OsloMet. Doctoral candidates from other institutions and other subject fields as mentioned above, are also welcome to apply. The course is also to the extent there is room, open to applicants who have completed either 'hovedfag' or a master's degree (120 credits) within a relevant academic area.
