Prerequisite for this course

Elements of Mechanical Engineering
Materials Science and Metallurgy
Mechanics of Solids

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

Course Objectives
The objective of this course is to help students apply
concepts learned in the mechanics, structure,
material and manufacturing courses. This course
offers working knowledge in the use of proper failure
theories under steady and variable loading, design of
mechanical elements, such as shaft, coupling, power
screws, and detachable, permanent and welded
connections.

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

Learning Outcomes
The theory will be taught and practical should be carried out in such
a manner that students are able to acquire required learning
outcomes in cognitive, psychomotor and affective domain to
demonstrate following course outcomes:

Identify appropriate analytical models to describe and predict the

behaviour of standard machine components;
Apply stress analysis theory, fatigue theory and appropriate criteria
of failure to the design of simple machine elements;
Analyse and evaluate forces and stresses within machine elements.

Evaluation Scheme cont...

Continuous evaluation will be conducted for 30 marks. It is continuous and spread
throughout the course.
Component I- Home Assignment (5 marks)
Home assignments provide the students, useful pre selected reading material and
problem sets. Carefully selected assignments encourage the students to put in
independent work in the course and highly conducive to learning.
Guidelines:
1.Logical and descriptive questions will be given.
2.Programs may also be given for practice.
3.It will be compulsory to submit promptly and properly all the Home assignment
on time.
Component II- Mid Term Test(15 marks)
This is an individual activity which test students basic knowledge in the given
subject and by this component we can assess student- instructor performance.

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

Evaluation Scheme cont...

Component III Quiz (5 Marks)
This is an individual activity to test students basic concepts and knowledge for
each topic.
Guidelines:
1.The objective type questions and short questions will be asked in quiz.
2.Fill in the blanks , True / False questions may be asked in quiz.
3.There will be no negative marking.
Component IV- Attendance(5 marks)
Guidelines:
1.It is expected from all students to be present in all lectures and lab sessions.
2.But due to some unavoidable circumstances, he/she may be exempted for
25% lectures/lab sessions.
3.Medical leaves will be counted in rest 25% leaves only.
4.A student must normally maintain 75% attendance in each of the course
5.If a student does not maintain requisite attendance (75%) by the end of the
semester, he may be debarred.

Amity School of Engineering & Technology

General Guidelines for Students

1. It is expected from all students to be present in all lectures/
labs.
2. Entry in the classroom or lab will not be entertained after 5
minutes of commencement of lecture/lab.
3. Teaching notes may be provided on
hardcopy or
amizone.net as and when required.
4. Home assignments need to be submitted on time.
Assignments accepted after the scheduled date will lead to
deduction in internal marks as it is an internal evaluation
criteria.
