Teaching processes
The engineering design course is conducted through a project-based approach, with a focus on vehicle design, and students will create a high-pressure air racing car to experience the engineering design process firsthand. The activity process includes problem definition, information gathering, concept development, prediction and analysis, testing and correction, and optimization. The course meets weekly, with guidance on key issues to explore the application of engineering design concepts, with a focus on the application of vehicle dynamics in vehicle design to deepen students' engineering design thinking abilities. The key technical skills involved in practical activities include the integrated use of 3D modeling and digital processing technology, finite element analysis of digital models, engineering experimental measurement technology, diverse processing technologies, and the organization of learning process files.
