ModuleDescription/Aims:

The student should develop a more advanced knowledge of the factors

affecting machine component design, with particular reference to situations
involving complex stress and strain and more advanced Kinematic problems.
This knowledge should aid in the technical analysis and sizing of components
thatmayberequiredinlevel7finalprojects.
