Content (course unit)
In the course, the main principles of systematic mechatronics design approach while taking into account the customer and user requirements, cost-effectiveness, quality and safety are studied.
Also, the main components (sensors, actuators, micro-computers) of mechatronic systems and the integration to an operative system are studied. In the course, modeling and simulation tools are applied for designing dynamic electro-mechanical systems. Also, the basics of servo systems and control engineering are studied.
During the course, the student works as a part of a design team, of which the goal is to design and realize a mechatronic device according to the design methods supporting the sustainable development.
