To familiarize students with the latest developments in the theory of machines and mechanisms related to the analysis and synthesis of mechanisms, mechanisms of variable structure, spatial mechanisms, cam mechanisms, gear and cloc mechanisms.

Students acquire the necessary knowledge and skills required to design and construct mechanisms and machines. Also, students are trained in the use of appropriate programs for analysis of kinetic mechanisms of different size structures.

The formation of the theory of machines and mechanisms. Mechanisms and their classification. Structural analysis of the mechanism. Kinematic analysis of mechanisms. Analysis of the force. The process of constructing a machine.

Accomplishing the project work whose theme is closely related to doctoral student works.

No conditions

Individual determination of the required literature from Theory mechanisms and machines. Literature in foreign languages, Internet content.
