BSME - IC 4 - First Semester

The first phase of mechanical engineering project study involving writing and defense of the project proposal.

After completing this course, the student must be able to perform the following:

1. Prepare a written project study proposal including problem statement, objectives, significance, scope and limitations, literature review, theoretical framework, and methodology.

2. Present the project study proposal orally to a panel using appropriate structure, visual aids, and professional communication techniques.

The course deals with various mechanical properties of engineering materials in lieu of the determination of design factors and design stresses. It includes the analysis of simple, variable, and combined stresses applied to different mechanical elements, such as shafts and mechanical springs.
After completing this course, the student must be able to:
1:  Apply the principles of machine elements and materials engineering in the design of machine elements.
2:De termine the design factor and design stresses, and be able to apply these in the design of machine elements.
3: Solve problems involving different types of stresses.
4: Apply the various codes in the design of machine elements.

Introduction to linear control systems, modeling of physical systems, feedback control systems, time- and frequency domain analysis of control systems, and stability of control systems.
