TALAT Lecture 2102.03: The Transmission Housing of an Inboard-Outboard Engine, Special Study: Castin
This lecture offers an example of product development. It imparts knowledge about different ways of casting aluminium and criteria for selecting casting methods; the heat treatment of aluminium; corrosion-proofing and surface treatment of cast alloys used in a saline environment and choice of alloy. It provides insight into how to develop a product using the general specificiations and the interaction between form, material and processing chain and ?the importance of being thoroughly familiar wi
TALAT Lecture 3710: Case Study on Can Making
This lecture gives a background of the design and manufacturing processes of food and beverage cans, which are produced by drawing and drawing & ironing of rolled aluminium alloys. It draws attention to the challenge for materials and production engineers to fulfill contradicting demands and requirements for the production of cans and easy-open lids in a very competitive market. It demonstrates that optimization of all parameters, i.e. design, manufacturing and materials, has resulted in sheet m
Researching Skills for Practical Course Students
This course is for use by Academic staff to adapt for their under-graduate students. Originally designed for Art, Media and Design students the idea behind these resources is to address the perceived discrepancy between what students on ‘creative’ courses do in the studio - hands on making - and the academic skills they have to master in order to develop graduate attributes. The approach makes use of the straight-forward delivery method of a lecture, something the students usually expect and
TALAT Lecture 2102.01: A Floodlight for an Offshore Oil Platform, Special Study: Extruding Aluminium
This lecture offers an example of product development. It imparts knowledge about the design possibilities inherent in aluminium sections and the choice of alloy. It gives insight into how to develop a product using the general specifications and the interaction between form, material and processing chain; the importance of being thoroughly familiar with the different design materials, their processing possibilities and properties. The lecture is recommended for those situations, where a brief,
ABC defence : engineering ethics case study project
This is an Engineering Ethics case study from the IDEA CETL. The scenario, which examines the ethical issues around working for the defence industry, is aimed at students who have some experience of ethics. It raises issues about defence; ethics of war; conscience and integrity. It is recommended that this be taught to students at level 3 or 4 due to the sensitive nature of the subject and the fact that the issues addressed are relevant to those students about to enter work. The planned teaching
Advisory board : engineering ethics case study project
This is an Engineering Ethics case study from the IDEA CETL. It examines how membership of an advisory committee might lead to a conflict of interest. It considers integrity and public duty. The session is aimed at students who have not studied ethics before. The teaching format is a one hour session with small group discussions.
CV Joints: A case study for use in teaching in Engineering Ethics
