Specific course objectives

To give the basis of the mechanical engineering design

Course programme

Machine Design is a fundamental tool for the mechanical engineer to design reliable and safe machines and parts of mechanical systems. This course gives the basic knowledges on stress and strain in rigid bodies, on the mechanical strength of materials, on the fatigue behavior of metals, and on the design of some simple structures.

Mechanical behavior of materials

Load and stress analysis

Stress concentration

Deflection and stiffness

Failure prevention and strength criterion

Fatigue behavior of materials

Design of mechanical elements
- Beams, shafts and axles - Pressure vessels - Bolts and welds
