Overall aims of course
The course on Theory and Machine Design helps the student to learn how to select the material and best suited shapes, computing the dimensions on the basis of strength , and specifying the manufacturing requirements. The course of theory of machine provides the student with the necessary knowledge of engineering of motion , the nature of speed an acceleration , the analysis of static and dynamic forces , friction forces in addition to study the method of reducing the vibrations .
The student at the end of the courses of theory and machine design should gain the knowledge of :
· To give students an appreciation of the fundamental principles, design and operation of machine elements design and mechanisms.
· To provide with knowledge of the applications of different famous mechanisms in construction and industries machines.
· To instill within each student a positive safety attitude with regard to the design, operation, and maintenance of mechanisms for machines.
· To provide students with an understanding of the machines components utilized in conventional industrial systems.
· To describe the purpose and operation of mechanisms and its components.
· Development and utilization of a design review system specifically emphasizing failure analysis, safety considerations
· Recognize and calculate the different methods of force analysis, stresses and deflection calculations during machine design.
