Credits 01 Exam Hours 03
* Additional one hour may be considered for instructions if required.
Course objectives:
The students will be able
 To understand the concepts of natural frequency, logarithmic decrement, damping and damping ratio.
 To understand the techniques of balancing of rotating masses and influence of gyroscopic couple.
 To verify the concept of the critical speed of a rotating shaft.
 To illustrate the concept of stress concentration using Photo elasticity.
 To appreciate the equilibrium speed, sensitiveness, power and effort of a Governor.
 To illustrate the principles of pressure development in an oil film of a hydrodynamic journal bearing.
 To visualize different mechanisms and cam motions
Modern computing techniques are preferred to be used wherever possible.

Course outcomes (Course Skill Set):


At the end of the course the student will be able to:

of shafts.
 Carry out balancing of rotating masses and gyroscope phenomenon.
 Analyse the governor characteristics.
 Determine stresses in disk, beams and plates using photo elastic bench.
 Determination of Pressure distribution in Journal bearing
 Analyse the stress and strains using strain gauges in compression and bending test

Assessment Details (both CIE and SEE)
The weightage of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) is 50% and for Semester End Exam (SEE) is 50%. The minimum
passing mark for the CIE is 40% of the maximum marks (20 marks). A student shall be deemed to have satisfied the
academic requirements and earned the credits allotted to each course. The student has to secure not less than 35%
(18 Marks out of 50) in the semester-end examination(SEE).
Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE):
CIE marks for the practical course is 50 Marks.
The split-up of CIE marks for record/ journal and test are in the ratio 60:40.
 Each experiment to be evaluated for conduction with observation sheet and record write-up. Rubrics for the
evaluation of the journal/write-up for hardware/software experiments designed by the faculty who is handling the
laboratory session and is made known to students at the beginning of the practical session.
 Record should contain all the specified experiments in the syllabus and each experiment write-up will be
evaluated for 10 marks.
 Total marks scored by the students are scaled downed to 30 marks (60% of maximum marks).
 Weightage to be given for neatness and submission of record/write-up on time.
 Department shall conduct 02 tests for 100 marks, the first test shall be conducted after the 8 week of the
th

th
semester and the second test shall be conducted after the 14 week of the semester.
 In each test, test write-up, conduction of experiment, acceptable result, and procedural knowledge will carry a
weightage of 60% and the rest 40% for viva-voce.
 The suitable rubrics can be designed to evaluate each student’s performance and learning ability. Rubrics
suggested in Annexure-II of Regulation book
 The average of 02 tests is scaled down to 20 marks (40% of the maximum marks).
The Sum of scaled-down marks scored in the report write-up/journal and average marks of two tests is the total CIE
marks scored by the student.

Semester End Evaluation (SEE):


SEE marks for the practical course is 50 Marks.
SEE shall be conducted jointly by the two examiners of the same institute, examiners are appointed by the University
All laboratory experiments are to be included for practical examination.
(Rubrics) Breakup of marks and the instructions printed on the cover page of the answer script to be strictly adhered
to by the examiners. OR based on the course requirement evaluation rubrics shall be decided jointly by examiners.
Students can pick one question (experiment) from the questions lot prepared by the internal /external examiners

jointly.
Evaluation of test write-up/ conduction procedure and result/viva will be conducted jointly by examiners.
General rubrics suggested for SEE are mentioned here, writeup-20%, Conduction procedure and result in -60%, Viva-
voce 20% of maximum marks. SEE for practical shall be evaluated for 100 marks and scored marks shall be scaled
down to 50 marks (however, based on course type, rubrics shall be decided by the examiners)
Change of experiment is allowed only once and 15% Marks allotted to the procedure part to be made zero.
The duration of SEE is 03 hours
Rubrics suggested in Annexure-II of Regulation book
