Summary
This module includes further development of modelling and analysis techniques within CAE (Solid Works or similar) introduced in MMME1035 (MM1DM1/EDP) and MMME2034 (MM2DM2/DMP) to enable the student to create, display and analyse complex forms and assemblies. Various elements of CAE will be covered including, solid & surface modelling, rendering and analysis. Review of the CAE software.
Target Students
Restricted optional for BEng/MEng Mechanical Engineering
Classes
- One 3-hour practicum each week for 11 weeks
Assessment
- 40% Coursework 1: Advanced modelling assignment (approx 25 hours work outside timetabled.
