9. Course Objectives (CO):
The course objective of Machine Design-II is to provide an overview of machine parts
used for power and rotary motion transmission, such as gears, bearings, clutches, brakes,
ropes and chain drives. Attention is paid particularly to impart understanding of the
functions of the power transmission components and learn the methods used in their
design process. The course teaches students how to apply the concepts of stress analysis,
theories of failure and material science to analyze, design and/or select commonly used
machine components. The lab work attached to the course integrates the knowledge of
Mechanical drafting, CAD and design validation using Finite Element application
software. Students will work on problem solving and their projects during the laboratory
classes. This course will develop the technical competence capability and at the
conclusion of this course, students should be able to demonstrate:

1. The ability to apply the fundamentals of stress analysis, theories of failure and
material science in the design of machine components.
2. Knowledge of the principles of design, selection, operation and application of the
mechanical drive components.
3. The ability to invoke appropriate assumptions and select elements and
subsequently develop and validate the same.
4. Be able to communicate effectively in reporting (both textually and graphically)
the design and its validation.

Lab Objectives are as follows:

1. To impart ability to apply gained knowledge to the design process of new
machinery and equipment.
2. To impart knowledge of the FEM as applied to design and validation of the drive
components.
3. To impart the ability to use existing as well as develop new computer-based
techniques and algorithms for the analysis, selection, and synthesis of mechanical
components.
