INGEGNERIA CIVILE E ARCHITETTURA (DICAR)Mechanical EngineeringAcademic Year 2022/2023

9796119 - MACHINE DESIGN

Teacher: Guido LA ROSA

Expected Learning Outcomes

Based on the concepts acquired in Structural Mechanics and Applied Mechanics, we will provide the basis for the design of components and simple mechanical systems.

Course Structure

Frontal lessons and exercises on the topics of the course. The course will deals with study and design of mechanical components either on static or dynamic conditions.

Required Prerequisites

Fundamental of Resistence of Material and Applied Mechanics are required.

Attendance of Lessons

According to regulation, compulsory attendance for 70% would be required. However, due to the protracted restrictions for COVID, the attendance of the course will follow the instructions given by the Rector on this topic.
