Predicting performance in any of the systems referred to in Systems. Students will be expected to use calculations, simulations and modelling either manually or with Computer Aided Design (CAD) to:
• design and test electronic circuits
• calculate hydraulic/pneumatic forces. Exam questions will not examine complex systems with more than four major component parts.
Calculate:
• area
• volume
• stiffness
• density
• Young's Modulus
• factors of safety
• forces within/applied to a component or a system
• conversion of load/extension to stress/strain (when investigating tensile strength of a material)
• resistance in series and parallel, current or voltage.
