Subject module project (Fagprojekt) (Spring 2005) |
|||
| Course code : | EFPK3A-U1 | ||
| ECTS Credits : | 10 | Status : | Compulsory |
| Revised : | 25/02 2005 | Written : | 25/02 2005 |
| Placement : | 3. semester | Hours per week : | 8 |
| Length : | 1 semester | Teaching Language : | English |
| Objective : | To learn mathematical modeling, including analogies between electrical and other technical systems. | ||
| Principal Content : | Description of models for technical systems, such as electrical systems and other mixed systems. Analogies. Experimental modeling using frequency characteristics. Solution methods for mathematical models, including Laplace transformation. Simulation and verification of mathematical models. | ||
| Teaching method : | Class teaching + project work. The project must deal with a mixed technical system including analog electronics. The project is documented by a report and a presentation at the examination (see "Exam:") | ||
| Required prequisites : | A degree as IT- and Electronics Technologists, with knowledge about: Concepts and theory: Independent and dependent generators, resistance, capacitance, inductance. Ohms law. Voltage division. Kirchhoff´s current and voltage law. Node- and mesh-equation. Thevenin and Norton equivalent. Power and energy. Complex frequency ("s"): Transfer function, poles, zeroes, frequency response, Bode plot, natural response, time constant, resonant frequency, quality factor. Impedance. Components and methods: Resistor, capacitor, inductor, operational amplifier. Computer-based math tools. Time- and frequency domain circuit and simulation. Time- and frequency domain measurements. |

| Recommended prerequisites : | - | ||
| Relations : | FPKRA3A is a prerequisite for all the following study modules in the field of analog and power electronics, and TVP4E control theory. | ||
| Type of examination : | Oral examination based on assignments | ||
| External examiner : | External | ||
| Marking : | Scale of 13 | ||
| Remarks : | The project work is carried out in groups of 3-5 students. Under special circumstances, the teacher may allow smaller group sizes. A supervisor will be assigned to each group. The supervisor follows the group and is in charge as examiner. If more teachers are involved in the course, the groups are divided among the teachers, by the teachers. If a group member several times fails to fulfill agreements made by the group, the group may recommend exclusion. If a student doesn"t contributes to the project-work, the teacher may refuse to enter the student for the examination. Examination: At the examination each student is allocated 20 minutes. The examination is a group examination but the marking is individual. The evaluation is based on a general impression of the level achieved by the student relative to the objective of the course. The evaluation is based on the reports, the oral performance and the functionality of the project. The group presents the project by giving well-prepared presentations - ~10 minutes per student. The group is required to coordinate the presentations in such a way that the major aspects of the project are covered, that the presentations are different and that each individual presentation has a good technical span. After the presentation the supervisors and the external examiner pose questions inspired by the presentations and the report. The questions are a priori individual but may - if found relevant by the supervisors or the external examiner - form the basis of a more general group discussion. During the evaluation by the supervisors and the external examiner, the project group leaves the room. Afterwards the group is summoned and the individual marks are explained. At the exam there is only short time for these explanations - Therefore the students may request (by email) a consultation after the exam, where the exam and the project report can be discussed with the supervisor. At this consultation, students that have not passed the exam, will be guided on how to work purposeful towards passing a new exam. The consultation will normally take place in the beginning of the following semester. |
