Mechanical Engineering

Short theoretical lectures and lab activities on: - Surface modeling and 3D Reverse Engineering: to experimentally acquire surfaces and provide their CAD post-processing - Topological Optimization and Generative Design: to assess lightweight design and learn how to manage CAE optimization of complex shape (also lattice structure and compliant structure) - Virtual Prototyping through Hyperworks: to learn basics and also how coupling together structural and/or kinematic/fluidodynamics simulations or performing numerical optimization via stochastic modeling. -Virtual and augmented reality: use of devices and software to create virtual environments and scenarios.

For proper enjoyment of the course, it is recommended that the student possess knowledge about: - the fundamentals of mechanical engineering (machine building, technical drawing, applied machine mechanics, mechanics of solids, design methods for industrial engineering); - the methods and technologies of reverse engineering; - programming languages (C++, Matlab, Phyton); - CAD-CAE software for 2D and 3D modeling, finite element analysis, optimizations.

Lecture notes, slides, references and other needed material given by the lecturer

Classes will be delivered in-person unless specifically directed by the Consiglio d'Area, the Faculty or the University. Attendance is not mandatory but strongly recommended.

The student will have to carry out assigned project activities and write a short report on them. The oral test, following the delivery of the report, will involve the presentation and discussion of the activities carried out.

Lecture notes, slides, references and other needed material given by the lecturer

The entire set of lectures, held in english, will be composed of lectures of theoretical recalls, lectures explaining the methodologies to be applied and the expected results, practice lectures, and lessons of review of the assigned design task. The lecturer will promptly communicate any need for computer equipment and will endeavor to provide all resources necessary for proper use. Lectures will be scheduled as determined by the Consiglio d'Area at the beginning of the semester, and any additional exercises will be scheduled in agreement with the students and their needs.
