1. Understand the purpose and principles of the experiment and be able to carry out the experiment based on the guided experimental method.
2. Understand the principles of the experimental apparatus and be able to handle it correctly and make appropriate measurements.
3. Be able to organise and analyse the results of experiments and summarise them in a report using a PC.
4. Have an autonomous robotic car assembled and driven using mechatronic technology, and summarise the results in a report using a PC.
Outline:
The students confirm the theory of each field of mechanical engineering through experiments, understand the necessity of the theory and learn the measurement principles for obtaining experimental values (physical quantity to be measured). They also acquire general technical writing skills.
Using mechatronics technology, have each group assemble and drive an autonomous robot car and write a report on it.
In the power transmission experiment, teachers who were in charge of snowmobile engine design use their experience to teach the power transmission performance evaluation method of gears and belt drives and the transmission characteristics of gears and belt drives through experiments.
Style:
A proficiency test will be given at the end of the previous semester, so students should familiarise themselves with the content of each experimental topic.
As this is a credit course, students are required to submit reports as pre- and post-learning.
In addition, an assignment for CAD/CAM is due each week.
【121 class hours + 60 self-study hours】
Notice:
Failure to submit an experimental report will be treated as an absence, and even one absence from each experimental topic will, in principle, be treated as a failing grade. If you are going to be absent for special or unavoidable reasons, you must inform us in advance. In the event of an unauthorised absence, strict instructions will be given.
Please note that the attire and preparations are different for each theme.
