Learning objectives
This Ph.D. course provides an overview on modelling and design of sustainable mechanisms, machines, and robots using the embodied mechanical intelligence approach.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Basic knowledge of Mathematics, Physics, and Control.
Program
• An Introduction to Embodied Mechanical Intelligence and Sustainability
• Fundamentals of Mechanics and Mechanical Intelligence
• Functional Design of Sustainable Machines
• An Introduction to Mechanism and Machine Theory
• Elements of Dynamic of Machinery
• Examples of Sustainable Embodied Mechanical Intelligence Projects
Didactic methods
The Ph.D. student will learn basic methodologies to adapt the mechanical system to external input (using variable stiffness sensors and actuators) and to control its physical interaction (human-machine, machine-machine, machine-environment).
The Ph.D. course is divided in two parts:
• First part – simplified mechanical models of real robots and machines will be studied, underlining critical points in mechanical design;
• Second part - each Ph.D. candidate will conclude a small Sustainable Embodied Mechanical Intelligence Project (SEMIP) studying the behaviour of a sustainable machine (or robot) proposed by the teacher.
Learning assessment procedures
Discussion on the Personal Project.
Assessment
Evaluation of the sustainable embodied mechanical intelligence of a system.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
Minimum score score to pass the exam: 18; Maximum Score: 30.
