1. Understand the purpose and principles of experiments and be able to carry out experiments based on the instructed experimental methods.
2. Understand the principles of the experimental apparatus, and be able to handle it correctly and make appropriate measurements.
3. To be able to organize and analyze the results of experiments and compile them into a report using a PC.
4. To be able to assemble and drive an autonomous robot car using mechatronics technology, and summarize the results in a report using a PC.
Outline:
Students will confirm the theory of each field of mechanical engineering through experiments, understand the necessity of the theory, and master the principles of measurement to obtain experimental values (physical quantity to be measured). They will also acquire general technical writing skills.
Using mechatronics technology, each group will assemble and drive an autonomous robot car, and write a report on the results.
In the power transmission experiment, the instructor, who was in charge of designing snowmobile engines, uses his experience to teach the students how to evaluate the power transmission performance of gears and belt drives and the transmission characteristics of gears and belt drives through experiments.
Style:
A proficiency examination will be given at the end of the first semester, so students should have a good understanding of the content of each experimental topic.
This course is a credit course, so students are required to submit reports as pre- and post-learning. Students will be required to submit a report on CAD/CAM every week.
[121 hours of class time + 60 hours of self-study]
Notice:
Failure to submit an experiment report will be treated as an absence, and even one absence from each experiment topic will, in principle, result in a failing grade. If you are going to be absent due to a special absence or an unavoidable circumstance, be sure to notify the school in advance. In the event of an unexcused absence, strict instructions will be given.
Please note that each theme requires different attire and preparations.
