Courses

  • Engineering from Principle to Practical (30133)
  • Development Challenges in the Automotive Industry (30338)
  • Course summary:

    Abstract:

    the challenge will be defined by performance goals and requirements and constraints.

    the students will experience and implement "real" life multi-discipline teamwork.

    the students will learn and work in between classes. classes will be focused on
  • Driving Lab Dynamics of Vehicles (30342)
  • Course summary:

    Abstract:

    The course is constructed of classwork, workshop activity, and road and track testing. in class we will review the theory and plan the experiments.

    The students will predict the vehicle handling and performance. in the workshop, we will perform measurements.

     

    Then we will move to full days of testing on road or track depending on the experiment. The students will receive data recorded while they drive. they will analyze the data and compare it with their prediction and submit the final report.

     

    Note: the experiments and timeline may change based on the vehicle used weather track availability etc.
  • Vehicle Structure and Strength (30343)
  • Car Design (30344)
  • Course summary:

    Abstract:

    vehicle design is the implementation of engineering principles via design and calculation of the vehicle systems and layout to meet specifications. While being based on mechanical engineering it includes almost any other engineering field.

     The challenge is in the integration of all into a vehicle in a modern competitive market while considering a variety of aspects including environment and safety. The study method will be of Project-based learning which the students will perform along the semester.
  • Vehicle Development1 (30357)
  • Course summary:

    Abstract:

    The students will work on their assignments in coordination with the other interfacing parts of the solar car project, They will present their work to the team from time to time according to the conduct of the project, will participate in professional discussions and will carry out the design work and the preparation of the documents individually.

    The individual goal will be defined by objectives and necessary technical performance while understanding the requirements of the full-scale project and constraints such as space in the vehicle, availability of electric power, price, weight, production technologies, safety, regulations, supply chain and more.

    The students will experience and internalize the proper way of working in an industry where engineering must adapt to a complex set of constraints.

    When appropriate, it will be possible to define a task suitable for working in a team.

    The car club will hold periodic work meetings in which student participation will be mandatory.
