DEPARTMENT & PROGRAM: B.S. Mechanical Engineering
COURSE CODE-COURSE NAME: 214801 Machine Design I CR: 3-0
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This is an advanced course on modeling, design, integration and best practices for use of machine elements
such as bearings, springs, gears, cams and mechanisms. Modeling and analysis of these elements is based
upon extensive application of physics, mathematics and core mechanical engineering principles (solid
mechanics, fluid mechanics, manufacturing, estimation, computer simulation, etc.).
PRE-REQUISITE: 114201 Statics
CO-REQUISITE:
214204 Mechanics of Materials-II
214202 Dynamics
211104 Engineering Materials
TEXT AND MATERIALS:
Textbook:

1. Machine Elements in Mechanical Design, 4th Edition, Robert L. Mott, Pearson-Prentice Hall, 2004.
PROGRAM LEARNING OUTCOMES:
The course is designed so that students will achieve the PLOs:
1. PLO-01: Engineering Knowledge: An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and
engineering fundamentals and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering
problems.
2. PLO-02: Problem Analysis: An ability to identify, formulate, research literature, and analyze complex
engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural
sciences and engineering sciences.
Course Objectives:
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to:
1. Describe/Define the basic concepts of machine design and failure theories.
2. Estimate/Explain the endurance limit of a material with correction factors.
3. Analyze/Investigate the durability of material and parts by applying failure theories on mechanical parts.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS:
This course is an advanced engineering subject and serves as a link between Breadth and Depth Engineering
Courses. The successful development of technologies/products requires knowledge of mechanical design
principles, their application, and new technology emerging from research efforts. This course provides an
overview of the fundamentals of mechanical design.
