General Information

Overview

This project-based learning unit examines the behaviour of mechanical systems. You will apply knowledge of engineering science and mathematics to model and analyse mechanical systems and consider the nature of engineering assumptions, and the effects of uncertainty on modelling and analysis. You will apply vibration and control theory, design and analyse linear and non-linear mathematical models and use simulation software to predict the behaviour of mechanical systems in the industry. You will have opportunities to work individually and in teams to complete projects and to develop interpersonal and technical communication skills. You will prepare professional documentation of problem solutions and project reports. Online students are required to have access to a computer. In this unit, you must complete compulsory practical activities. Refer to the Engineering Undergraduate Course Moodle site for proposed dates.

Attendance Requirements

All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes - in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).

Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from SUTE Unit comments.

Feedback

Extremely high workload and many assignment questions follow on from other questions making it hard if the first question is unsolved.

Recommendation

Strategies to support students commencing the team assessment earlier in the term should be developed to properly distribute the work and begin cooperation among the team members.

Feedback from UC reflection.

Feedback

Most students do not look at the assessment items until the last minute. Hence, they have trouble working as a team keeping some busy and some idle raising dissatisfaction.

Recommendation

Authentic practical engineering examples relevant to the theoretical contents should be provided throughout the term.

Feedback from Course committee meeting feedback.

Feedback

The unit received low score in useful knowledge/skills category.

Recommendation

Authentic practical engineering examples relevant to the theoretical contents students learn need to be repeated throughout the term.
