Training objectives

The course provides the knowledge and methods for the functional synthesis of machines; in particular it deals with lubrication, gears, planar linkages and cam systems.
The course takes into account both the theoretical and the applicative point of view and includes numerical exercises.

Prerequisites

Courses of Mathematics, Physics, Theoretical Mechanics and Mechanics of Machines

Course programme


LUBRICATION: Lubricant viscosity and properties. Elementary theory of hydrodynamic lubrication; technical applications. Journal bearings: theory and design (use of Raimondi-Boyd diagrams). Hydrostatic lubrication; technical applications. Performances and applications of bearings.
GEARS: Spur gears: properties of the involute, velocity ratio, static analysis, manufacturing processes, contact ratio and interference, dimension standards, non-standard gear teeth, gear measurements. Helical gears. Bevel gears. Worm gears.
KINEMATIC SYNTHESIS OF PLANAR LINKAGES: Graphical and analytical methods for the functional design in the case of motion generation, path generation and function generation.
CAM SYSTEMS: Types of cams and followers. Design of a cam according to a given law of motion. Kinematic and kinetostatic analysis. Selection criteria for motion law.

Didactic methods

Theoretical/practical lessons.

Learning assessment procedures

Written/oral examination.
