Machine Design Fundamentals (FSI-1K-K)

Academic year 2019/2020
Supervisor: doc. Ing. Pavel Mazal, CSc.  
Supervising institute: ÚK all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of the course “Fundamentals of Design” is to introduce the requirements of component drawing. The students should be able to apply these requirements.
Emphasis is placed on ensuring function and interchangeability. The goal of the subject is to explain that creation of component drawing is a kind of synthesis of its appurtenances and that creation of technical documentation is the fundamental communication instrument of mechanical engineer.
Learning outcomes and competences:
The subject “Machine Design Fundamentals” provides students with knowledge of imaging, dimensioning, accuracy of size and geometric accuracy, surface quality, material selection, semi-finished materials, and standardized functional and technological elements.
Students learn how to apply such knowledge taking into account function and interchangeability on the drawings of parts manufactured from wrought semifinished products.
Prerequisites:
Students are expected to have only knowledge acquired at secondary school.
Course contents:
Reading and working out of an engineering (especially drawing) documentation from the viewpoints of imaging, dimensioning, accuracy of size, surface quality, geometrical accuracy, function and interchangeability, selection of material quality and semi-finished product. Overview of standardized functional and technological elements. Selected machine parts and assembly units from the point of view of function and drawing documentation.
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.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Course-unit credit requirements: attendance at seminars, drawing of graphic projects (programs), elaboration of tests and exercises. Student must obtain min. 2 points (of 30) for graphic projects (programs) and tests. Student must fulfill all four conditions. Exam includes a multiple-choice PC test with 70 points as maximum. Final evaluation reflects student’s work at seminars (max. 30 points) and the exam (max. 70 points). Final classification according to ECTS.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Attendance at seminars is mandatory and controlled. It is not necessary to compensate for absence from max. two seminars.
Type of course unit:
    Guided consultation in combined form of studies  1 × 13 hrs. optionally
