Course Objective:The project will introduce students to the challenge of electronic systems
design & integration. The project is an example of ‘hardware and software co-design’ and the
scale of the task is such that it will require teamwork as a coordinated effort.
Syllabus
To provide a basis for the technical aspects of the project a small number of lectures are
incorporated into the module. As the students would have received little in the way of formal
engineering instruction at this early stage in the degree course, the level of the lectures is to be
introductory with an emphasis on the physical aspects of the subject matter as applied to the
‘Mangonel’ project. The lecture series include subject areas such as Materials, Structures,
Dynamics and Digital Electronics delivered by experts in the field.
Thismoduleisdeliveredusingacombinationofintroductorylecturesandparticipationby the
students in 15“activities”. The activities are executed to support the syllabus of the course and
might take place in specialised laboratories or on the open ground used for firing the
Mangonel. Students work in groups throughout the semester to encourage teamwork,
cooperation and to avail of the different skills of its members. In the end the students work in
sub-groups to do the Mangonel throwing arm redesign project. They assemble and operate a
Mangonel, based on the lectures and tutorials assignments of mechanical engineering they
experiment with the working, critically analyse the effect of design changes and implement the
final project in a competition. Presentation of the group assembly, redesign and individual
reflection of the project is assessed in the end.
