Course objectives are designed to meet the needs of the 21st Century automotive industry for graduate students with the necessary skills and understanding in mechatronics. Students should be able to deal with a wide range of activities that include research, design, development and testing of mechatronic systems in motor vehicles.
Students obtain the following general ability: - analysis, synthesis and forecast of solutions and consequences - mastering the methods, procedures and processes of research, - application of the acquired knowledge in practice. Students also acquire subject-specific skills: - through introduction to vehicle mechatronic systems, - by solving concrete problems by using scientific and engineering methods and procedures, - development of the skills for the use of knowledge in the field of mechatronics within the vehicle.
The four main teaching blocks include following areas: (a) Introduction to mechatronics and basic mechatronic systems, (b) vehicle mechatronic systems - general (control systems and automation, dynamics, sensors, micro-electronics, actuators, central computer unit), (v) specific characteristics of mechatronic system within the vehicle (braking system, suspension system, power transmission system, integrated vehicle systems) and (g) examples of vehicle mechatronic systems.
