Educational Aims
This module aims to explain how electricity and electronic principles can be used to achieve practical tasks in mechanical engineering, measure mechanical quantities and provide mechanical power. It also aims to give students an understanding of the importance of electrical and electronic subsystems in mechanical designs. A further aim is to prepare students for the use of electrical and electronic approcahes within their individual and group project work.Learning Outcomes
