Eligibility:
In order to be eligible for a second cycle course the applicant needs to fulfil the general and specific entry requirements of the programme that owns the course. (If the second cycle course is owned by a first cycle programme, second cycle entry requirements apply.)
Exemption from the eligibility requirement:
Applicants enrolled in a programme at Chalmers where the course is included in the study programme are exempted from fulfilling these requirements.
Course specific prerequisites
BSc in Mechanical engineering
Aim
The overall aim is that the student shall understand:
The vehicle as a system of technological solutions
The requirements on a complete vehicle from the customer, the vehicle manufacturer and the society
The break-down to verifiable requirements on parts of the vehicle system
Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)
Explain the different requirements on a complete vehicle based on the customer, the vehicle turer and the societal perspective Formulate requirements within transport efficiency, energy efficiency, safety Explain the Load Carrying & Protection Systems, Chassis Systems / Motion Control Systems, Propulsion Systems / Energy Management Systems of a vehicle Break-down and balance complete vehicle requirements to above mentioned systems. Verify some alternative system solutions with respect to above mentioned, using advised verification methods and select between above alternatives. Describe some methods to validate some complete vehicle requirements
Content
Requirements on a complete vehicle from the customer, the company and the society, examples: transport efficiency, energy efficiency, safety, cost, quality, legislation, product message, platform efficiency The vehicle as a system of technological solutions, examples of subsystems: Load Carrying & Protection Systems, Chassis Systems / Motion Control Systems, Propulsion Systems / Energy Management Systems. The break-down to and balancing of verifiable requirements on subsystems and components. Verification of technical solutions and validation of requirements Usage of product development methods (ex modelling, optimisation, FMEA) . Assignments
