Course detail
Machine Design - Machine Elements
FSI-5KSAcad. year: 2010/2011
The course is focused on analytic strength computations of statically and dynamically loaded mechanical components and joints and also on tribology. The following problems will be also dealt with: threaded joints, welded joints, bonded and riveted joints, shafts and axles, bearings and springs.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
-written solution of all assignments (maximal number of points is 5)
-two check tests (maximal number of points is 15).
Maximal number of points obtained from seminar is 20. Minimal number of points necessary for course-unit credit is 10.
Examination requirements:
-electronic testing system. Test with possibility of answers selection is based on lectures and tutorial topics. (maximal number of points obtained from test is 80, minimal number of points for passing the test is 40.)
Total number of points is sum of points obtained from tutorial and points obtained from exam test. Minimal number of points is 50 and maximal number of points is 100. Resulting classification is made according ECTS.
