Students get to know the most important methods und elements of

construction in mechanical engineering. Overview about relevant

mechanical functionalities, resonance systems and mechanics based

mathematical algorithm, also for forces, torques, power and

kinematics.

They

- get to know basic proven mechanical concepts and solutions (man-made and natural) by means of explanations, photos, laboratory and samples focusing on energy and mobility.

- receive the basic mechanical knowledge enabling them to understand advantages and disadvantages of artificial and nature's creations

- learn to talk to mechanical engineers and to express themselves even in English

- be able to understand a technical drawing and BOM

- understand how a design process takes place and what boundary conditions we have to follow (strength, reliability, environmental aspects, costs, weight, production, maintainability, safety, noise, laws and standards, ...)

- get a feeling which tools / partners are adequate for specific problems (CAD, FEM, MKS, testing, ...)

- be aware about the basic mechanical manufacturing technologies
