Study Guide

Objective

You are able to use the thematic general laws to solve simple problems mathematically. You know how to use SI units and derived units. You are able to use the laws learned to design simple laboratory measurements and to carry out those measurements, as well as related invoices and analysis of results.

Content

- Kinematics
- Thermodynamics
- Pneumatics
- CAS for mechanical tasks (optional)
- Laboratory exercises (mandatory presence)

Materials

All material needed will be provided on Moodle or during the lectures or laboratory sessions.

Exam schedules

The course assessment is based on the laboratory reports from laboratory work and a final exam.

Assessments of this course can not be done on EXAM-environment.

Completion alternatives

There are no alternative completion method on this course due to the laboratory work.

Student workload

Lessons, laboratory sessions and assessment 30 hours and 30 minutes.

Self-learning about 50 hours

Total 81 hours

One academic credit equals about 27 hours of work for student.

Further information

The laboratory sessions are mandatory due to the final assessment method.

Evaluation scale

H-5

Assessment methods and criteria

Assessment is based on the laboratory reports, specified exercises and assignments announced by the teacher on the lessons and on Moodle.

If the student's total amount of points is
- less than 40 % of maximum: grade 0 (fail)
- 40 - 51 % of maximum: grade 1
- 52 - 63 % of maximum: grade 2
- 64 - 75 % of maximum: grade 3
- 76 - 91 % of maximum: grade 4
- more than 91 % of maximum: grade 5.
