Introduction to Design of Scientific Instruments (FSI-TKK)

Academic year 2023/2024
Supervisor: Ing. Zbyněk Dostál, Ph.D.  
Supervising institute: ÚFI all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The goal of the subject is to provide students an overview of the construction of mechanical assemblies for the optical devices.
Learning outcomes and competences:
Students will acquire skills in technical drawing. They will acquire knowledge of basic machine parts, normed parts, and construction materials. In addition, they are familiar with the static design of structural components for optical systems.
Prerequisites:
Fundamentals of mathematics and geometry
Course contents:
Introduction to Design of Scientific Instruments gives a basic overview of mechanical design for optical devices. Students are introduced into the computer design of mechanical systems particularly.
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:
Student designs optical system. A short report will be classified.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Final report is controlled.
