TMHP03 Engineering Systems Design, 6 ECTS credits.
/Tekniska system/

For:   AER   DPU   M  

 

Prel. scheduled hours: 48
Rec. self-study hours: 112

  Area of Education: Technology

Main field of studies: Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering

  Advancement level (G1, G2, A): A

Aim:
The course is aimed at tools and methods for systems engineering and design. The course should give an ability to use different methods for engineering design later in projects with industrial applications. After the coruse the student should be able to:
  • Understand the dynamics of innovation
  • Formulate requrement specifications
  • Apply methods for functional decomposition, requirements management, and concept generation
  • Apply morphological matrix for concept selection
  • Generate models based on statistical data regarding relations between different system/component charateristics
  • Produce sensitivity analysis of a system and be able to draw conclusions regarding robusteness and the degree of coupling.
  • Apply "falure mode analysis" FMEA, and "fault tree analysism, FTA.


Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Three years of studies in mechanical engineering

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Organisation:
Lectures and group exercises

Course contents:
The lectures deals with systematic design tools, including requirement specification, problem formulation, functional analysis, koncept generation, configuration methodolog, morphological matrices, axiomatic design, design structure matrix (DSM), QFD, sensitivity analysis, robustness, statistical methods of existing products to find initial relations for dimmensioning, estimation of power, force, torque and weight, and volume. In addition, methods for system safety such as "faliure mode effect analysis", FMEA, and "fault tree analysis" FTA are dealt with.
