MEB_24_A_5.02.MTE (P241-0435, P241-0436) Mechanical Engineering, Bachelor, SO 01.10.2024 , semester 5, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 150 hours (equivalent to 5 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 105 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jochen Gessat
Lecturer:
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jochen Gessat

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will be familiar with the measurement methods for measuring displacement, strain, force, acceleration, speed, torque, pressure, flow, temperature, current, voltage, resistance and will be able to assess their properties. A brief insight into electronics will enable students to handle measuring amplifiers and simple filter circuits safely. Students will be familiar with the possibilities of modern signal analysis technology. They will be able to apply the measurement techniques they have learned in other disciplines.
