Course outcome (Course Skill Set)
At the end of the course, the student will be able to :
1. Apply codes and standards in the design of machine elements and select an element based on
the Manufacturer’s catalogue.
2. Analyse the performance and failure modes of mechanical components subjected to combined
loading and fatigue loading using the concepts of theories of failure.
3. Demonstrate the application of engineering design tools to the design of machine components
like shafts, keys, couplings, welded and riveted joints, brakes and clutches
4. Design different types of gears and simple gear boxes for relevant applications.
5. Apply design concepts of hydrodynamic bearings for different applications using the
manufacturers, catalogue.
Internal Assessment Test question paper is designed to attain the different levels of Bloom’s
taxonomy as per the outcome defined for the course.
SemesterEnd Examination:
Theory SEE will be conducted by University as per the scheduled timetable, with common question
papers for the course (duration 03 hours).
1. The question paper will have ten questions. Each question is set for 20 marks.
2. There will be 2 questions from each module. Each of the two questions under a module (with a
maximum of 3 subquestions), should have a mix of topics under that module.
3. The students have to answer 5 full questions, selecting one full question from each module.
4. Marks scored shall be proportionally reduced to 50 marks.
