5 LP / 4 SWS

Type of assessment:

Written examination (3 attempts)

Learning outcomes / competences:

The students are able to

• recognise machine elements in complex constructions and derive the requirements for design and layout
• apply the basic specialist knowledge of selected machine elements in order to achieve their logical and sensible interaction for functional fulfilment
• apply the scientific state of the art of design methods and thinking to machine elements
• recognise calculation documents and methods as well as their application limits for machine elements and be able to work out alternative solutions
• differentiate between and utilise elements of rotary and linear motion

Contents:

• Calculation of axes, shafts and journals, roller and plain bearings, shaft-hub connections, couplings

The contents of the lecture Machine Elements 2 are deepened by self-calculation tasks in the exercises. Students can also intensify the tasks in the tutorials offered under expert supervision.
