/Aircraft Structures - Project Course/

For:   AER   M  

 

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

  Area of Education: Technology

Main field of studies: Mechanical Engineering

  Advancement level (G1, G2, A): A

Aim:
This course is aimed at developing skills for product development and/or computational analysis relevant to aircraft structures. Previously acquired skills are consolidated when applied to problems of interest to the aircraft industry. After the course the student should:
  • be able to apply previously acquired skills in the mechanics of structures to integrated problems with relevance to the aircraft industry.
  • have consolidated their knowledge in engineering science.
  • be able to formulate, implement and update a project plan.
  • have experience from working in a team with product development related to aircraft design.


Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
The project work requires knowledge in Mechanics, Solid mechanics, Engineering materials and Machine components. Knowledge in Flight mechanics is preferred, but not necessary.

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:
The course is carried out as a project with regular project meetings. The result from the project is a written report and an oral presentation.

Course contents:
The course is based on a project that is inspired by a real problem in the aircraft industry. The students work with modelling, design and analysis of aircraft structures. There are also activities in project-specific technology.
