Description
Creativity combined with practical well engineered design is the fuel for innovation .
Mechanical design engineering - the profession of creating and analyzing systems which do useful physical work is based on the "Conceptualization of Systems" . Problem solving skills are most sought after in engineers beyond just CAD and tool focused skills.
This course is all about the conceptualization of mechanical designs.
Focusing on the Design Process and elaborating a thought process which can be applied in action during solving Mechanical design problems.
Multiple projects are covered which give a wide and also in depth look at Concept development activity .
Who is it for?
- Mechanical Design engineers working in industry , to improve their conceptualization skills and problem solving skills
- Engineering students to work on challenging projects going beyond the basics of Engineering to Practical problem solving.
Pre-requisites ?
- Familiarity with usage of CAD packages (any)
- Familiarity with basic engineering concepts
What are the Learning outcomes?
- An action focused procedure to breakdown a design problem and define it for developing a solution
- Develop a Concept generation skill through practice
How best to utilize the course?
- Practice and more practice - There are multiple projects included in the course which challenge thinking and with deliberate practice will improve conceptualization skills.
This course focusses on "conceptual problem solving" rather than the accuracy and precision of complete product design . The concepts developed may not be optimal . The reason why input files are provided are to encourage alternative concepts and ideas.
Who this course is for:
- Practicing design engineers who want to upskill and enhance their conceptual skills
- Aspirant mechanical engineers looking to get a headstart
- Product developers or designers who want to design mechanical systems to solve problems
