| Course Objectives: |
Machine Elements course is a branch of Mechanical Engineering that focuses on the design and selection of mechanical components, such as gears, bearings, springs, shafts, and fasteners, used in mechanical systems. The course covers the principles and applications of these elements and how they impact the overall performance and reliability of the mechanical system. The subject covers both theoretical and practical aspects, including materials selection, manufacturing processes, and design analysis and testing. The course aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills to design and select machine elements for various applications. |
| Course Contents: |
This course offers a thorough exploration of the fundamental concepts and design principles in mechanical engineering. Students will gain insights into mechanical engineering design, manufacturing processes, stress analysis, axial loading, torsion, bending, and transformation of stress. The course also covers failure resulting from static loading and fatigue, as well as the design of essential components such as shafts. Combining theoretical knowledge with practical application, this course aims to equip students with the critical skills necessary for mechanical engineering design. |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit (LO): |
- 1- Understand and apply the fundamental principles of mechanical engineering design.
- 2- Perform stress analysis and understand the concepts of axial loading, torsion, and bending.
- 3- Analyze and transform stress in various mechanical contexts.
- 4- Evaluate failure mechanisms resulting from static loading and fatigue.
- 5- Design and assess the mechanical integrity of machine elements.
- 6- Integrate theoretical knowledge with practical skills for effective problem-solving in mechanical engineering design.

| Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods: |
This course will be conducted through two main activities: lectures and lab sessions. During the lectures, we will closely follow our textbook to cover theoretical aspects of the course content. The lab sessions will provide a hands-on approach, allowing students to discover learning materials through practical tests. Additionally, we will learn and apply Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis in the lab sessions (Using Solidwork Simulation), comparing the results with the analytical solutions discussed in lectures. |
At Kadir Has University, a Semester is 14 weeks; The weeks 15 and 16 are reserved for final exams.
