Teaching Method

Outline:

※Relation to work experience : This subject provides students with the rudiments of mechatronics and specific application examples, which are based on the teacher's work experience as a developer of mechanical design at a manufacturer. The teacher is qualified as a professional engineer.
General or Specialized : Specialized
Field of learning : Energy・Measurement and Control

Foundational academic disciplines : Engineering / Mechanical Engineering / Mechanical Dynamics ・ Control

Relationship with Educational Objectives :
This class is equivalent to "(3) Acquire deep foundation knowledge of the major subject area".

Relationship with JABEE programs :
The main goal of learning / education in this class are "(A)" , A-2

Course outline :

The subject integrates a fresh technology field of Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Information Engineering, which is essential to incrasing the sophistication of machines. In this subject Basic Technology and application which are essential to mechanical engineers will be explained.

Style:

Course method :
The subject explains the introduction to mechatoronics, actuators, mechanism,s sensors, information processing of analog sensors, application of electric circuit elements, controller and peripheral equipment, control engineering, software and specific example of mechatronics.
Grade evaluation method :
Exams (80%) + Report (20%).
Regular exams is conducted 2 times and evaluated equally.
Retaking exams will be carried out for the students who get under 60% in total score.
The retaken exams are equivalent to the term exam. Studens can use writing materials and calculator as nesessary.

Notice:

Precautions on the enrollment :
This is a "class that requires study outside of class hours". Classes are offered for 15 hours per credit, but 30 credit hours are required in addition to this. Follow the instructions of your instructor for these studies. Students must take this class(no more than one-third of the required number of class hours may be missed) .

Course advice :
This subject is based on mechanical engineering and electrical engineering, and basic study of mechanics and electric circuits is very important.

Foundational subjects : Electrical and Electric Circuit (2nd year), Integrated Science and Technology Practice (2nd year), MechatronicsⅠ (3rd year)

Related subjects : Introduction to Robotics (4th year), Control Engineering (4th)etc.

Attendance advice :
The students are advised to solve the problems of textbooks of mechatoronics. You should prepare and continually.
Reports should be submitted by the deadline.
If you are more than 25 minutes late for the start time, it will be regarded as 1 absence.
