Abstract:
In this course students will study practical issues in mechanical engineering. In addition, the students are required to build engineering projects in groups, where each project will be accompanied by an appropriate report (including presentations, poster, video etc.) At the end of each project, an engineering competition will be held between the students; the grade of each project will be affected by the results of the competition.Abstract:
The main topics of the course are vector algebra, static particles,
the equivalent system of forces, the equilibrium of rigid bodies, the analysis of frames and machines,
the analysis of trusses, distributed forces and the center of mass, the moment of inertia and friction.Abstract:
The main goal of the course is to understand the end-to-end systems engineering process as a foundation for deeper exploration in core courses later in the degree program. The course presents the principles and methods of systems engineering, essential for navigating complex engineering projects. Students will gain comprehensive familiarity with the system life cycle, from needs analysis to system retirement, integrating practical applications in modern high-tech and startup environments.Abstract:
This course offers an advanced exploration of planning and executing Integration and V&V as an evidence-driven technical management system. Students will examine how to lead complex integration processes and ensure the quality of engineering deliverables through the lens of data-driven decision-making, based on requirements, interfaces, constraints, and risks.
Key Core Topics:
Integration Strategies (Sequencing): Determining the integration sequence of components and subsystems to mitigate risk.
Environment Management: Defining and operating test infrastructures, simulations, and laboratories.
Maturity Gates: Implementing critical control points throughout the project lifecycle.
Test Design: Planning comprehensive test suites and professional management of anomalies and deviations.
Configuration Integrity and Readiness: Ensuring configuration integrity and formulating recommendations for readiness decisions (for delivery or deployment).
