Dear Students,
This course is conducted by lectures and laboratory experiments. For the first seven weeks, students are exposed to the experimental method theory followed by laboratory works for the next seven weeks. The lectures shall cover the fundamental or experimental method and the basic principles in measurements, instrumentation and analysis of results. It shall focus on the design of mechanical experiments, selection of sensors and tranducers, estimation of errors and display of results. It shall also cover the analysis of the results and proper report writing. Student comprehension will be tested by two written examinations. During the practical sessions, several groups of 5 – 6 students will be formed to conduct several experiments. The students are expected to apply the theories thought earlier in the first part of the semester in designing the experiments, recording the data and displaying the results. The students will also conduct statistical analysis of the results and present the experimental outcome in a report.
