Program description

Content

Today one can find mechanical engineering in practically all industrially made goods of everyday life like cars, electronic devices or tools. Mechanical engineering incorporates technologies and develops market ready products from basic developments. Accordingly the field of activity of mechanical engineers is wide: Planning and calculation of plants, devices and machines, selection and development of materials, design of mechanical devices taking into account economic manufacturing and planning of production plants are examples. Developments in micro system technology, mechatronics and microelectronics extended the field of work during the last years. In addition, subjects outside the field of technology become more and more important for engineers.

The aim of the mechanical engineering programs at TUHH (bachelor and master) is to successfully prepare young people for their career start in this wide and always varying field. Mechanical engineers work in industry, medium-sized companies, public facilities, colleges and engineer's offices. Their activities can include various areas like research, development, production, project management, distribution, marketing and quality assurance.

The variety of applications within this occupation demands a high degree of specialization. Consequently, the professional training of mechanical engineers must balance the wide range of knowledge to be acquired (to offer diverse applications in the future) and the profoundness of training (for up-to-date technical competences). In the course of the consecutive bachelor’s and master’s program in mechanical engineering at the TUHH, the wide range of knowledge is taught mostly during the bachelor’s program while specific skills are developed during the master’s program. In any case, a profound understanding of the basics as well as a proficiency in common methods are part of the education. The course of study leading to the “Bachelor of Science” degree in mechanical engineering is designed with this aspiration. The fundamentals necessary to solve tasks in mechanical engineering are taught. Additionally, skills in an area of focus are taught during the bachelor’s degree course. The degree qualifies students to work professionally in typical fields of mechanical engineering:

  • Product development and production (production technologies, materials, lightweight design),
  • Aircraft systems engineering (aircraft systems, simulation product development),
  • Energy systems (thermal power plants, piston engines),
  • Mechatronics (simulation, semiconductor technology),
  • Biomechanics (medicine, implants),
  • Materials in engineering sciences (materials sciences, structural materials)

In reality, the transitions between the individual fields of mechanical engineering are blurred. The listed fields of application can be further pursued on in one of the master’s programs in mechanical engineering. 

In addition to the technical basics, an education in non-technical areas such as business administration, patent law, humanities as well as law and philosophy is pursued that fulfills the demands made on modern day engineers.

In addition to the foundational curriculum taught at TUHH, seminars on developing personal skills are integrated into the dual study programme, in the context of transfer between theory and practice. These seminars correspond to the modern professional requirements expected of an engineer, as well as promoting the link between the two places of learning.

The intensive dual courses at TUHH integrating practical experience consist of an academic-oriented and a practice-oriented element, which are completed at two places of learning. The academic-oriented element comprises study at TUHH. The practice-oriented element is coordinated with the study programme in terms of content and time, and consists of practical modules and phases spent in an affiliate company during periods when there are no lectures.


Career prospects

The courses’ graduates are able to work responsibly and proficiently as mechanical engineers. According to the laws of the states of the Federal Republic of Germany, they may use the professional title engineer. Possible employers are for example manufacturing companies in the mechanical engineering sector as well as engineering and planning offices. The degree allows for further studies in a masters’ program, e.g. the consecutive programs corresponding to the areas of focus.

In addition, students acquire basic professional and personal skills as part of the dual study programme that enable them to enter professional practice at an early stage and to go on to further study. Students also gain practical work experience through the integrated practical modules. Graduates of the dual course have broad foundational knowledge, fundamental skills for academic work and relevant personal competences.

  • The students are able to acquire knowledge and skills of topic areas and problems in a self-organized and self-motivated manner (lifelong learning in engineering).

By continually switching places of learnings throughout the dual study programme, it is possible for theory and practice to be interlinked. Students reflect theoretically on their individual professional practical experience, and apply the results of their reflection to new forms of practice. They also test theoretical elements of the course in a practical setting, and use their findings as a stimulus for theoretical debate.


Program structure

The course of studies consists of the core qualification in the extent of 180 credit points, a specialization in the extent of 18 credit points and the final work intended in the sixth semester in the extent of 12 credit points. 

Specializations are: Energy technology, airplane-system technology, materials in the engineer's sciences, mechatronics, product development and production, as well as theoretical mechanical engineering. 

The structural model of the dual study programme follows a module-differentiating approach. Given the practice-oriented element, the curriculum of the dual study programme is different compared to a standard Bachelor’s course. Five practical modules are completed at the dual students’ partner company as part of corresponding practical terms during lecture-free periods.

Core Qualification

Within this block "Kernqualifikation" of the Bachelor of Science program the students get the basics knowledge, basic professional skills and methods as a base for the further development of their competence up the ability to work qualified and responsable and to apply their skills on the job. Scientific principle-base education in mathemetics and the basics of engineering science are the essential topics of this block. First field applications, basics in business administration and nontechnical complementary courses are an important complement to these fields.

Content

The content of experiment 1:

Accuracy testing of a delta robot: In the course of the experiment, the accuracy of a delta robot is tested through 3 tasks. The first task focuses on the online/offline programming of the robot. The second task deals with sensor calibration. In the third task, the radius of a sphere is determined using three different measurement methods (manual measurement, manual measurement with a sensor, automatic data acquisition and data processing).

The content of experiment 3:

The aim of the task is to enable the parallel kinematics to find objects, grasp them and place them on a static target position For this purpose, the end effector of the kinematics is equipped with an optical sensor (camera), whose characteristics are to be defined. The measuring range of the sensor is to be identified and, based on this, a movement strategy for finding the objects is to be developed and implemented. Once the objects have been found, they are to be picked up with a magnetic gripper and transported to their destination.

The content of experiment 4:

The aim of the task is to enable the parallel kinematics to find objects, grab them and deposit them on a moving platform. For this purpose, the end effector of the kinematics is equipped with an optical sensor (camera), the properties of which were worked out in experiment 3. Based on this, the parallel kinematics should now be able to follow the moving platform. For this purpose, a position control must be developed and implemented. Once the controller has been appropriately configured, the objects can be placed on the moving platform.

Specialization Biomechanics

Due to the ever increasing demands on the health system of an aging population, mechanization is of great importance. Both individual implants and instruments as well as large appliances used for diagnostics and therapy, medical and engineering science staff must work increasingly close together to meet the new requirements. For engineers, this means that they can understand and influence project management, and development and research have what they learn in this specialization in addition to specific engineering fundamentals and medical and business aspects of patient care.

Recommended Previous Knowledge

It is recommended to participate in "Implantate und Frakturheilung" before attending "Experimentelle Methoden".

Educational Objectives After taking part successfully, students have reached the following learning results
Professional Competence
Knowledge

The course deals with common experimental methods used in biomechanics. For each topic an overview and some basic practical knowledge is provided.

1. Tribology
2. Optical Methods
3. Motion Analysis
4. Pressure Distribution
5. Strain Gauges
6. Pre-clinical testing
7. Specimen Preparation and Storage


The students can describe the different ways how bones heal, and the requirements for their existence.

The students can name different treatments for the spine and hollow bones under given fracture morphologies.

The students can describe different measurement techniques for forces and movements, and choose the adequate technique for a given task.

Skills

The students can describe the basic handling of several experimental techniques used in biomechanics.

Personal Competence
Social Competence

Students are able to organize themselves as a group to solve simple experimental tasks together. On the one hand, the division of tasks must be organized during the experiment as well as during the short written elaboration, but on the other hand, the knowledge acquired must be available to all participants of the group afterwards. The challenge here is that the topics change quickly because fundamentally different measurement principles are taught. In addition, a strict time management is expected.

Autonomy

Students perform simple experimental tasks in small groups or create simple sensors (e.g. strain gauges). The preceding lecture serves as a basis for these experiments. As preparation or follow-up, the theoretical knowledge has to be worked up and related to the experimental result. In particular, independent transfer performance is necessary to clarify why experimental observations can show deviations from the theoretical values and how these deviations can be compensated.

The environmental impact of acidification, fine particulate or CO2 emissions and the resulting climatic effects are a special focus of the lecture and the lecture hall exercise. The challenges in plant operation from interconnecting conventional power plants and renewable energy sources are discussed and the technical options for providing security of supply and network stability are presented, also under consideration of cost effectiveness. In this critical review, focus is especially placed on the compatibility of the different solutions with the environment and climate. With this, the awareness for the responsibility of an engineer's own actions are emphasized and the potential extent of the different solutions presented clearly.

Within the framework of the exercise the students learn the use of the specialised software suite EBSILON ProfessionalTM. With this tool small tasks are solved on the PC, to highlight aspects of the design and development of power plant cycles. The students present their results orally and can afterwards ask questions and get feedback. The course work has a positive effect on the students final grade.

Module Responsible Prof. Norbert Huber
Admission Requirements None
Recommended Previous Knowledge Fundamentals of mathematics (differential equations, integration), materials science (classes of materials, structure, properties, tensile test) and engineering mechanics (stress, strain, elasticity, deformation).
Educational Objectives After taking part successfully, students have reached the following learning results
Professional Competence
Knowledge

The module deals with the production and properties of engineering materials. Particular attention is paid to material selection, material processing, the associated microstructure and the achievable mechanical properties. In conjunction with the costs, these are decisive for the applicability and economic efficiency. Metallic materials are in the foreground. Ceramics and polymers are also covered in the sense of a broad range of available materials.

In parallel to the material-technological consideration, the modeling of material behavior by means of phenomenological material laws for plasticity under monotonic and cyclic loading is worked out. In addition to the evaluation of component behavior, plasticity also plays a major role in manufacturing processes and thus provides the basis for process simulation. Process models and simulation methods for selected manufacturing processes, such as rolling or forming, are presented for this topic area.

Skills

Students are able to

  • analyze the material behavior of metallic materials for general load histories with respect to elasticity and plasticity as well as the associated velocity-dependent material behavior and describe it with corresponding material laws
  • to relate the deformation behavior to the underlying microstructural mechanisms
  • to assess how processing procedures affect the chain microstructure - process - properties
  • understand how the mechanical properties of metallic materials can be tailored by the processing due to microstructural design
Personal Competence
Social Competence

Students are able to

  • actively enrich and shape the course by contributing to the discussion.
  • develop solutions to given problems and explain them in English in the plenum and discuss them with their fellow students.
Autonomy

Students are able to,

  • assess their own strengths and weaknesses
  • concretely assess their respective learning status and define further work steps on this basis
  • abstract given tasks and then apply them to new problems by transferring the taught material.
