Aims

This module aims to develop the knowledge and understanding of advanced mechanical engineering systems and practically integrated complex engineering systems. The students are to be given in-depth knowledge and practical exposure on industry level engineering simple to moderately complex real applications.

Learning Outcomes

1.
Analyse designs of simple to moderately complex mechanical engineering systems and demonstrate an understanding of how different areas of engineering are integrated in these engineering systems.
2.
Apply and solve complex problems of engineering systems using theoretical calculations and finite element modelling.
3.
Apply modern CAD, CAE (Computer aided engineering) to carry out complex engineering analysis. (Finite Element Analysis).
4.
Analyse designs and produce cost estimation and cost optimisations.
