Teaching Method

Outline:

Mechanical engineering experiments are practical demonstrations of concepts learned in the classroom. This lecture aims to understand the mechanisms behind mechanical phenomena related to mechanical engineering and the performance testing of machinery through manufacturing, thereby acquiring experimental techniques. During the experiments in weeks 4 to 6, a faculty member who was responsible for the research of design standards for boilers used in power generation at a company will utilize their experience to teach stress and strain measurement and analysis methods in an experimental format.

Style:

Experiments will be conducted in five fields related to mechanical engineering, followed by report writing. As this course is a credit-bearing subject, report submission is required as pre- and post-study activities.
【Lecture hours: 30 hours + Self-study hours: 60 hours】

Notice:

Interest begins to emerge as one understands the content of the experiment themes. Therefore, it is advisable to research the related fields in advance before the experiment and understand the content. While carrying out the experiment and organizing the data is important, pre-experimental contemplation is particularly crucial. In addition to literature research, students are encouraged to use their creativity in writing the report. Completing the report within the deadline is also one of the tasks. Details of the schedule and course registration method will be distributed in a separate document, so please check it carefully.
