Lectures

Goal

• introducing students to the problems of advanced modeling of more complex machine parts and assemblies, as well as their presentation in the appropriate technical documentation • gaining insight into different types of technical documentation used in mechanical engineering • basic training for creating appropriate simulations of parts and assemblies

Outcome

After completing the course, students acquire the necessary knowledge for modeling more complex machine parts, assembling them into a functional assembly, simulating that assembly in order to check the appropriate characteristics, creating technical documentation, analyzing the data obtained by simulation and creating an animation that shows the working process of the appropriate assembly.

Theoretical teaching

The theoretical teaching consists of several units. The first part includes the improvement of knowledge in the field of engineering graphics, modeling and production of technical documentation. In this part, students are introduced to the principles of parametric computer modeling using appropriate CAD software. The approach shown here requires constant creation, modification, analysis and optimization of the assembly or machine design in order to achieve the given initial parameters. The second part of the course presents the processing of special types of drawings used in mechanical engineering. Depending on the field of mechanical engineering where they are used, presentations of different types of supporting documentation that are used in the requested fields will be given. The third part shows the process of setting up appropriate simulations for testing parts of structures as well as simulating the operation of certain mechanisms. For these simulations, the appropriate reports obtained from the simulations of the mechanisms are generated.

Practical teaching

Exercises include making 3D models of more complex machine parts, making technical drawings for parts as well as for the whole assembly. Then the assembly of the parts is carried out in an appropriate way to obtain a functional assembly and check whether the assembly corresponds to the given parameters and whether the finishing of the parts is needed. After determining that the assembly meets the requirements set at the beginning, the preparation of the necessary technical documentation for the assembly, the creation of a report with the results of the simulation, is started. Creation of different types of drawings used in mechanical engineering and finally, a film is made about the operation of the assembly using appropriate, suitable software packages.
