课程简介

This unit develops methods for analysing complex problems. The basics of statics and material properties are introduced and used to analyse structures such as beams, cantilevers and truss sections. This knowledge is used to design, analyse, build and test a structural component. Simplifications are implicit in the methods used in this analysis. These simplifications will be examined carefully and scrutinised in a broader cross-disciplinary context through problems related to the system being designed. The methods considered will include: the use of simplifications, assumptions, constraints, boundary conditions and levels of required precision.

The outcome of the structural analysis and testing will be compared and the suitability of the simplifications used will be scrutinised. You will gain knowledge about the methods engineers use to address complex problems across disciplines. Alongside this “engineering thinking”, you will also gain insight into the role of different specialisations of engineering in society. Communication and teamwork skills will be developed through teamwork tasks.

ULO1 Determine reactions and internal member forces in simple truss and beam systems and carry out limit state design to select appropriately sized members.
ULO2 Determine the strength of structural materials to inform engineering designs with considerations to performance, cost, sustainability and societal impact.
ULO3 Determine the steady-state performance of simple systems involving levers, gears, springs and pulleys using appropriate engineering problem-solving methodologies.
ULO4 Propose concept designs that solve engineering problems and justify finalised design with considerations of key variables, assumptions and system boundaries.
ULO5 Identify appropriate engineering tools and techniques to develop, validate and convey designs and solutions.
ULO6 Identify roles and responsibilities within a team and reflect on self and team behaviours that contribute to the successful conduct of a project.

教学方式与预期工作量

教学方式

Active learning - Teaching and learning method In this unit, formal contact hours consist of weekly workshops and practical classes. Learning in the unit is through multiple methods, consisting of:

• Pre-workshop work with online quiz assessments

• Workshop and practical class engagement

• Completion of an in-semester content test

• Completion of a major project

• Completing the worksheet and practice questions throughout the semester

Practical class allocation Weekly 3-hr practical classes begin in Week 1, and are enrolled through Allocate+. You are required to attend the assigned practical class you are allocated to, as work in these sessions is undertaken primarily in project teams.

Teaching approach In a typical week, you are expected to:

• Watch online videos before attending the workshops.

• Attempt the workshop-related assessments.

• Attend the workshops, which focus on applying the weekly discipline-specific topics and examples.

• Undertake self-study by completing the worksheet and practice questions, and attempting optional related practice quizzes.

• Attend weekly practical classes and complete individual and team tasks based on workshop material, which will be reinforced through the major team design-and-build project.

预期工作量

The minimum total expected workload to achieve the learning outcomes for this unit is 144 hours per semester typically comprising a mixture of 3-6 hours of scheduled learning activities and 6-9 hours of independent study per week. Scheduled activities may include a combination of teacher-directed learning, peer-directed learning and online engagement. Independent study may include associated readings, assessment and preparation for scheduled activities.
