1.1. Aims of the course
The course and its expected results respond to the following approaches and goals:
Ÿ Knowledge and application of CAD / CAM / CAE programs and their use as a
2 and 3D representation tool.
Ÿ Knowledge of design, simulation, analysis and manufacturing-assembly software.
Ÿ Making and printing of blueprints in accordance with current regulations regarding
Industrial Drawing.
ŸDevelopment of independent work and decision-making based on technical criteria
using graphic solutions.
1.2. Context and importance of this course in the degree
CAD systems are used in product design engineering to obtain a precise geometric model.
These systems allow to validate the solution from the dimensional and assembly point of view.
CAE systems consist in the use of software to evaluate the geometric model obtained as a numerical model of the graphical solution, from the functional point of view and physical behavior in boundary conditions defined by the designer.
CAD / CAE systems are essential in any industrial sector in the field of engineering.
1.3. Recommendations to take this course
For the acquisition of knowledge and procedures in a sequenced and adequate way of this Subject, it is recommended to have passed the subject of Graphic Expression (Course 1)
2.1. Competences
Upon passing the subject, the student will be more competent to ...
C07.- Ability to use the engineering techniques, skills and tools necessary for the practice of the profession
C09.- Ability to work in a multidisciplinary group and a multilingual environment
C11.- Ability for lifelong learning and development of independent learning strategies
C14.- Basic knowledge about the use and programming of computers, operating systems, databases, and engineering application software.
C16.- Ability for Spatial vision and knowledge of graphic representation techniques, using both metric and descriptive geometry traditional methods, and computer aided design applications
C21.- Knowledge of the principles of machine and mechanism theory.
C29.- Knowledge and skills for the design, management and organization of production and logistic systems in business
C33.- Knowledge of automation basics of and control methods.
2.2. Learning goals
Students, to pass this subject, must produce the following results ...
1. Model or solve environments focused on the design of optimized factory drawings to achieve efficiency, quality and flexibility.
2. Size elements/machines according to technical specifications and functionality.
3. Understand, order and transmit the information obtained from different sources.
4. Design or analyze, using computer tools, the behavior of parts, subsets or
systems-processes, in accordance with given operating requirements or requests.
5. Analyze the design to get a flow of materials, machine usage, and energy consumption
in the early stages of the design.
6. Present both orally and in writing the work done in a coherent way.
7. Motivation and self-learning ability
8. Preparation and interpretation of plans and diagrams according to the regulations and
appropriate symbols.
2.3. Importance of learning goals
This course will provide the student with a comprehensive set of mechanical, 3D and Plant design CAD tools, to produce, validate and document complete digital prototypes. The model obtained will be a 3D digital prototype and will help us display, simulate and analyze the operation of a product or a component in real conditions before manufacturing. This helps engineers reach the market faster using fewer physical prototypes and create more innovative products.
3. Assessment (1st and 2nd call)
3.1. Assessment tasks (description of tasks, marking system and assessment criteria)
The student must demonstrate that they have achieved the expected learning outcomes through the following assessment activities
1.- Continuous Assessment System
Ÿ Participation (20%) .- Activities and tasks suggested in class; Attitude and direct
observation of subject skills and abilities. Group work skills.
Ÿ Individual work (80%): Production of individual final project-like work for the course.
2.- Final Assessment Global Test
Following the regulations of the University of Zaragoza in this regard, in courses that offer continuous assessment, a global evaluation test will be scheduled for those students who decide to opt for this second system.
4. Methodology, learning tasks, syllabus and resources
4.1. Methodological overview
The organization of teaching will be done following the guidelines below:
Ÿ Theory / practical classes: The concepts and procedures of the subject will be explained and developed simultaneously, developing illustrative practical examples as support (in class and in individual and / or group tutorials), requiring a high level of student participation monitored by the teacher. Computer practical application activities will be carried out for the production of digital prototypes applying the different tools and obtaining as much information as necessary for their design, analysis, manufacturing and / or assembly. In the non-classroom mode, adapted audio-visual teaching material and specific software will be used for independent monitoring of the course.
Ÿ Individual and / or group tutorials: Tutorials concerning any issues of the course face-to-face or virtual in streaming at the scheduled timetable or through messaging and Moodle virtual classroom forum
"If classroom teaching were not possible due to health reasons, it would be carried out on-line."
4.2. Learning tasks
The program offered to the student to help them achieve the expected outcomes includes activities that involve the active participation of students
ŸTheory-practical classes (60h): The theoretical concepts of the subject will be
explained and l illustrative practical examples developed to support the theory when
necessary. Concepts and procedures of computer tools, particularly those of CAD-
CAE, will be applied.
ŸMonitored practical work-Tutorials: Monitored practical tasks, work and exercise
follow-up, which includes assistance and individualized or group attention, as
appropriate, during tutorial timetable.(Posted on the EUPLA website)
