Gearing Devices of Motor Vehicles (FSI-QRU)

Academic year 2019/2020
Supervisor: doc. Ing. Zdeněk Kaplan, CSc.  
Supervising institute: ÚADI all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The course provides an overview of modern gearing systems of motor vehicles. Attention is oriented on theory, construction and employment.
Learning outcomes and competences:
The course provides knowledge from area of transmission mechanisms. Obtained knowledge creates conditions to self-contained solution construction project in next semesters.
Prerequisites:
The student needs to have knowledge appropriate courses of theoretical basics of master study programme at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Technology, Brno

Links to other subjects:
compulsory co-requisite: Driving Mechanisms [QHL]
compulsory co-requisite: Tractors [QT]
Course contents:
Students are acquainted with basic gearing devices of motor vehicle, their design, function and actual state of development. There are emphasised aspects theoretical, constructional and functional.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures. Teaching is suplemented by practical laboratory work.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
The credit is suspended by active participation in exercises and correctly elaborated acts. The exam checks the knowledge from lectures and exercises, consists of written and oral parts.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Seminars are obligatory, checked by a teacher. The way of compensation of missed lessons (in justified cases) is solved individually with the course guarantee person.
