Knowledge about correct design and calculation of different machine elements. Theoretical background of different design and calculation methods.

Correct design and calculation of the following machine - and design-elements: Journal bearings and HD-theory, radial and axial-bearings, antifriction bearings-Hertzian pressure, theory of ball- and roller bearings, materials and strength, design and mounting of bearings, shafts calculation and design, critical speed and torsional vibrations, hubs, keys, seals, lubrication.

Lectures will be held in the Lecture room GM1 Audimax (building BA, ground floor).

Start of the lectures: Tuesday, October 2nd, 2018, 4 pm

Application for examination solely via TISS. Examination of this course is written and oral.

Oral examination will be held approximately two weeks after written test; exact date will be fixed at the beginning of the written test. Electronic handheld calculators for the test are available from the institute at the beginning of the test. Programmable calculators are not allowed for the test. For the test a non-programmable handheld calculator, pencils, rulers compass with extension and a passport are needed. 
At the moment many places for the tests are requested. Therefore we have extended the number of participants to the maximum we can handle There please deregistrate in TISS as soon as you have decided not to participate in a test after application.

Written test is held from 8.30 h till 10.30 h in Radinger lecture room (GM2).

Written and oral examination mit design tasks, artihmetic problems and small freehand sketches

It ist not necessary to enroll into the course itself. However an enrollment is mandatory if you want to participate in the TUWEL-lectures
