Course description and aims
This course aims to become a bridge between general education at high school and specialized education in the subjects of No.200 or higher. This course also aims to cultivate not only basic knowledge of engineering but also sense and attitude for problem solving so that the freshmen of School of Engineering can learn actively specialized subjects after sophomore.
By taking all Engineering literacy I-IV, the students experience the following all seven subjects in Engineering Literacy.
【Manufacturing process 】
【Mechanical Design (Steamship)】
【Mechanical Design (CAD)】
【Control】
【Wireless electric car with microcomputer】
【Communication, Computation, and Intelligent Information Processing】
【Management Technology (Industrial Engineering and Economics)】
Student learning outcomes
By completing this course, students will be able to:
【Mechanical Design (Steamship)】
1) Understand the basic knowledge of thermodynamics and fluidmechanics, and apply them to actual problems.
2) Design mechanisms based on its principle, and improve it based on understanding actual phenomena.
3) Discuss and solve the problem in their group.
【Manufacturing process 】
1) Practice various manufacturing processes and machine tools.
2) Do basic works yourself.
Keywords
【Mechanical Design (Steamship)】
thermodynamics, fluidmechanics, problem solving, design, manufacturing
【Manufacturing process 】
manufacturing process, machine tool, safety, measurement, lathe, milling machine, drilling machine, bending machine, band saw, shearing, grinding
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
【Mechanical Design (Steamship)】
Principle of steamship propelled by energy of a flame of a candle is discussed and the ship is designed and manufactured by each student. Using sold steamships, principle of propulsion for the steamship is examined by group discussion. Next the results of discussion are presented by all groups, and discussion as a whole is conducted. A steamship is designed by each student based on the results of discussion. The steamship is manufactured based on the design result. The manufactured steamships compete with each other through group heats and final tournament.
【Manufacturing process 】
Students will practice how to operate machine tools and measuring instruments for produce machinery in order to learn fundamental knowledge and technique on manufacturing processes. In addition, safety training program will be given to ensure your safety on work. Guidance on practical works, safety training program, and fundamentals of measurement technique are given for all at once. Then, the students separate into four groups, and each group takes two practices among the following four practices in rotation.
A. Fundamental operation of lathe
B. Fundamental operation of milling machine
C. Fundamental operation of scribing and drilling machine
D. Fundamental operation of band saw and bending machine
Attendance is taken in every class.
Course schedule/Required learning
| Course schedule | Required learning | |
|---|---|---|
| Class 1 | 【Mechanical Design (Steamship)】 Guidance and experiment using commercially available steamship, discussion about the principle of steamship 【Manufacturing process 】 Introduction to machining practices, safety training, fundamental knowledge on machining. | 【Mechanical Design (Steamship)】 Make a commercially available steamship perform correctly and explain the principle of propulsion. Conclude the principle of propulsion for steamship in the group. 【Manufacturing process 】 Review the general precautions on work. |
| Class 2 | Explanation of the principle of steamship and competition rule, manufacturing steamship. | Understand the principle of steamship and the competition rule correctly. Manufacture a steamship using tools correctly. Enhance performance of the steamship by trial and improvement. |
| Class 3 | Manufacturing and improving steamship. | Adjust steamship correctly and enhance its performance. |
| Class 4 | Group heats, final tournament, consolation match, awarding ceremony, overall discussion | Consider what was necessary to enhance performance more. |
| Class 5 | Guidance on practical works, Distribution of work clothes and safety shoes，Safety training on machining practices, Fundamentals of measurement technique | Review the dress code on work. Explain the procedure and precaution of measurement with a caliper and a micrometer. |
| Class 6 | Practical work 1 | Explain the basic procedure of the operation of the machine used in practical work 1. |
| Class 7 | Practical work 2 | Explain the basic procedure of the operation of the machine used in practical work 2. |
Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
