Summary

The graduate will be able to identify individual types of drives and transmissions. They will be able to describe the properties and characteristics of individual types of engines and motors (electric motors, internal combustion engines, hydraulic motors, pneumatic motors) and transmissions (mechanical, hydrostatic, hydrodynamic, and combined) and explain the basic principles of their operation. They will be able to compare individual types of drives and transmissions. They will be able to apply the acquired knowledge to basic calculations involving drives and transmissions and select suitable types of engines, motors, and transmissions for individual applications. The graduate will be able to independently solve basic technical problems related to drives and transmissions and use the acquired professional knowledge in solving them.
