MARZIA ROMANO

First Semester 9MATH-03/Aita

Learning objectives

The objective of this course is to acquire the basic knowledge of Mathematical Analysis. In particular, the objectives, expressed according to the Dublin descriptors, are the following:

Knowledge and understanding:
the student will learn the fundamental notions relating to integral calculus for real functions of a variable and to differential calculus for functions of one variable. He will also learn the notions related to the study of numerical series and linear algebra.

Ability to apply knowledge and understanding:
Through targeted examples, the student will be able to verify the need to resort to Mathematical Analysis in the scientific field and not only as a discipline for its own sake. He will be able to use the calculation tools learned to solve problems applied to reality or to other disciplines.Making judgments the student is frequently assigned exercises to be carried out independently by stimulating the skills acquired. Furthermore, simulations of exam tests are periodically carried out.

Communication skills:
The student is constantly stimulated during the course to interact with the teacher; he will acquire the ability to communicate by expressing himself in a correct language applied to the mathematical context. This will stimulate the acquisition of a mathematical language useful for communicating clearly in the scientific field.

Learning skills:
The student will be guided to perfect their study method also through exercises carried out regularly, will be able to autonomously deepen their knowledge and tackle new topics by recognizing the prerequisites necessary for their understanding.

examMode

A written exam, with 6 theory questions and 3 exercises, those answers determine the passage to the oral examination. Who receive a positive evaluation, at least 15 of 30, is admitted to the oral examination (required for passing the overall exam).
The oral examination starts with the discussion about the writing, with a subsequent assessment of the preparation on all program parts. Normally, the oral exam takes place two or three days after the positive evaluation of the written exam.
The exam tends to check that the student has become familiar with the manufacturing processes of metal components and, for this purpose, there are questions about hypothetical manufacturing cycles of real mechanical components, which are not necessarily treated in a specific lesson. In this way it is possible to evaluate the degree of obtained familiarity with the manufacturing processes and the mechanical characteristics deriving from production cycles.

Learning objectives

"Learning objectives (according to the Dublin descriptors): The teaching of ""Complements of Kinematics and Dynamics"" will introduce student engineers to the principles and methods of Applied Mechanics of Machines in order to acquire knowledge of the fundamental laws governing the operation of mechanical devices and machines.
The objective will be to provide students with the ability to decompose machines into elementary components made up of rigid bodies, to give them the tools to be able to describe and critically analyse kinematics, static and dynamic actions acting in mechanical systems and the resulting motion. To provide knowledge of how to test and design plane and space mechanisms for understanding the functioning of the main machine organs. Equip student engineers with the basic elements that constitute the theoretical minimum for modelling and analysing the operation of a machine.
Expected Learning Outcomes - Knowledge and Understanding: The course aims to provide the knowledge of Kinematics and Dynamics aimed at setting up, simulating and evaluating the design and modelling of mechanical systems. - Ability to Apply Knowledge and Understanding: The student will be able to: a) Propose and interpret the results of design solutions. b) Perform the analysis of the kinematic structure and degrees of freedom of mechanisms, identifying the constrained kinematic chains incorporated in larger engineering systems.
c) Calculate velocities and accelerations, by means of kinematic analysis, in articulated mechanisms through analytical and numerical-computational methods recognising direct and inverse problems. d) Apply analytical and numerical-computational procedures in order to solve kinematic design problems (kinematic synthesis) of mechanisms.
e) Set up and simulate mechanical models knowing how to plan, implement and correct computer-aided design tools for the analysis of kinematics and dynamics of constrained mechanical systems using numerical integration and solution methods. f) Know how to synthesise and analyse linear models with multiple degrees of freedom for the analysis of vibrations in mechanical systems.
- Autonomy of Judgement: The student will be able to carry out the setting up and critical examination of models and related simulations. - Communication Skills: To be able to present the results of the development of models and their analysis inherent to mechanical systems using verbal, written and electronic methods (calculation software).
- Learning ability: The learning ability will be developed through the active involvement of students through oral discussions in the classroom and guided design exercises on specific topics inherent to the course. Furthermore, this ability will be stimulated and verified through the assignment of design exercises, to be carried out also through the use of the computer, which will solidify the learning of the fundamental concepts by encouraging student engineers to try their hand at the verification and dimensioning of real mechanical systems."
