Drawing tools: computer graphics tools, characteristics of computer-aided drawing, autocad. Geometric constructions. Projection methods. Cad 3D. General and functional aspects of the main electrical and mechanical machines. Electrical and mechanical machine drawings.

Readings/Bibliography

Teaching materials deemed useful for preparation and supplementation will be available from the instructor and provided directly to students.

Teaching methods

Classroom lectures and computer-based practical exercises.

Assessment methods

The examination in "Mechanics, technology and design" consists of an oral test.

All tests are in-person. Please note that the online mode will be activated in case of emergency by communication from the University of Bologna

The tests can be taken on the same data, or in two different data (January-February; June-July; September: December).

The final test consists of an oral interview on the topics covered in the course syllabus.

The examination will also include questions designed to test:

- the level of depth of the topic presented;

- the knowledge of the other contents of the program;

- the ability to make logical-deductive connections between different topics;

- the degree of organic understanding of the topics covered during the lectures.

For the assessment of the student's/student's preparation, the lecturer may use additional questions aimed at analyzing aspects related to the main topics. The following will be assessed: the ability to expound correctly, completely and critically on the required topics; the clarity of exposition and the ability to use the specific language of the discipline.

Criteria for awarding final grade:

• 18-19: preparation on a very limited number of topics; ability to analyze present only with teacher support; overall fairly correct use of language.
• 20-24: preparation on a limited number of topics; ability to analyze independently confined to executive issues; correct language.
• 25-29: preparation on a wide range of topics; ability for independent critical analysis; good command of specific terminology.
• 30: Comprehensive preparation on all course topics; critical autonomy in analysis and connections between contents; full command of disciplinary language and argumentative and reflective ability.
• 30 cum laude: organic and integrated view of the topics covered; critical and informed use of knowledge; ability to make articulate connections; excellent mastery of expression and language, including specific terminology.

Students with learning disorders and temporary or permanent disabilities are invited to contact the dedicated office (https://site [https://site/] .unibo.it/students-with-disabilities-and-dsa/en/for-students) as soon as possible so that appropriate compensatory measures can be agreed upon. The request must be submitted in advance (15 days before the date of the exam) to the teacher, who will assess the appropriateness of the measures taking into account the teaching objectives.

Attribution of the overall mark for the Integrated Course (CI): The final mark will be determined by the weighted average of the marks obtained in the individual modules, based on the number of credits (CFU) attributed to each of them.

In order to take the exam, registration is required through the Almaesami registration, in strict compliance with the deadlines. Lists on Almaesami close two days before the start of each appeal.

Teaching tools

During the lessons, PowerPoint presentations and educational videos will be shown.
