Prerequisites
This course is taught in the first year of the master MECA and ELME mechatronics. 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.
Main themes
Functional analysis of machines and their components
Properties of component
Elements of calculus of machine components.
Properties of component
Elements of calculus of machine components.

Teaching methods
Part of the course is taught as lectures and by problem and project based learning (PBL) within groups of 6 students. Two projects are proposed:
- Project 1 : design of a machine
- Project 2: Digital manufacturing of the solution
Evaluation methods
Students will be evaluated on the basis of the two projects and a written exercise exam.
Project 1 and 2 will be assessed on 3 points each in the final grade . The note for the two projects are acquired once and for all (there is no second chance in September).
The written examination in session will be worth 14 points in the final grade. Students must score at least 7 out of 14 on the exam to receive credit for the entire course.The written exam will contain exercises, theoretical questions and at least one drawing, the book Juvinall and the bearing catalogue are authorized, the book on technical drawing is not authorized.
