About the course
Aim
The course is aimed at tools and methods for systems engineering and design. The course should give an ability to use different methods for engineering design later in projects with industrial applications. After the course the student should be able to:
- Understand the dynamics of innovation
- Formulate requirement specifications
- Apply methods for functional decomposition, requirements management, and concept generation
- Apply morphological matrix for concept selection
- Generate models based on statistical data regarding relations between different system/component characteristics
- Produce sensitivity analysis of a system and be able to draw conclusions regarding robustness and the degree of coupling
- Apply Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA).
Content
The lectures deals with systematic design tools, including requirement specification, problem formulation, functional analysis, concept generation, configuration methodology, morphological matrices, axiomatic design, Design Structure Matrix (DSM), QFD, sensitivity analysis, robustness, statistical methods of existing products to find initial relations for dimensioning, estimation of power, force, torque, weight, and volume. In addition, methods for system safety such as Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) are dealt with.
