It assumes that students already have basic skills in technical drawing. The aim of the course is to introduce the elementary knowledge necessary for the mechanical design of the elements that compose a machine. It is thus the basic course before a specialization 'design and manufacturing' and will contribute to prepare students to a future job as R&D engineer in the technical department of a company. |\n| Main themes | Functional analysis of machines and their components\u003Cbr>Properties of component\u003Cbr>Elements of calculus of machine components. |\n| Learning outcomes | At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to :\u003Cbr>Specific learning outcomes of the course\u003Cbr>• Write functional specifications for a machine\u003Cbr>• Identify the functionalities of a machine (actuation, bearing systems, transmission, sealing, ')\u003Cbr>• Estimate the installed and maximum power, the energetic consumption and the efficiency of a machine\u003Cbr>• Design a simple machine following an adapted methodology\u003Cbr>• Identify the basic hypotheses of elements dimensioning\u003Cbr>• Dimensioning following various criteria (yield strength, elastic compliance, fatigue) of usual elements (e.g. shafts)\u003Cbr>• Dimensioning while taking into account the effect of dynamic loading, stress concentration and residual stresses\u003Cbr>• Choose machine components (bearing, gasket, transmission) Read and interpret the drawing of an existing machine\u003Cbr>1 • Hand drawing of machine components and overall drawings\u003Cbr>• Placing tolerances for a mechanical system\u003Cbr>• Machine component design : threaded fastener and power screws, rivet and welding rolling bearing, sliding bearings, clutches and brakes, power transmssion components (gears, belt, chains, etc.. ), shaft and assocated part (key, pin, coupling, ')\u003Cbr>In consideration of the reference table AA of the program \" Master's degree civil engineer mechanics \", this course contributes to the development, to the acquisition and to the evaluation of the following experiences of learning:\u003Cbr>• AA1 . 1, AA1 .2\u003Cbr>• AA2 . 1, AA2 .2, AA2 .3, AA2 .4, AA2 .5, AA2 .6, AA2 .7, AA2 .8\u003Cbr>• AA4 .3, AA4 .4\u003Cbr>• AA5 .1 |\n| Evaluation methods | Students will be evaluated based on the two projects and a written exam that includes exercises, theoretical questions, and at least one technical drawing to be completed.\u003Cbr>The written exam assesses critical skills in sizing and technical drawing, which are essential for passing the course unit. Therefore, the weighting between the exam and the projects will be calculated as follows:\u003Cbr>• A score below 6/12 on the exam indicates insufficient mastery of these skills, justifying failure of the course unit. In this case, the exam score will be scaled to a 20-point scale and will constitute the final grade for the course.\u003Cbr>• If the exam is passed (with a score of at least 6/12), projects 1 and 2 will each count for 4 points toward the final grade.
