Engineering Design

basic knowledge of object oriented programming and CAD modelling

• Fundamentals of Knowledge-Based Engineering
• Knowledge-based product configuration
• Integration of object-oriented techniques (based on C#) for the realization of knowledge-based systems.
• Integration of CAD, Knowledge-Based Engineering and product lifecycle management

The students

• know an alternative approach to engineering design that relies on automation of design tasks in order to reduce time required and cost.
• understand the basic concepts of Engineering Knowledge and Knowledge-Based Engineering and will be able to gather the Engineering Knowledge required to implement knowledge based configuration models for basic to complex products.
• obtain general competence in the human aspects of using KBE, how KBE effects engineering work processes, as well as an overall understanding of the whole engineering process.
• are able to find engineering alternatives and improved functional design solutions, and to evaluate and select these, based on varying criteria.

• Lecture with integrated practical work
• Supervised and independent exercises,
• Project work
• Project presentation
• Guest lectures by external experts on the use and development of KBE

• Written exam
• Project results
