Profile of the Branch |
---|
The specialization "Hydraulics and Pneumatics" is part of the bachelor's study program "Mechanical Engineering". The main objective of this specialization is to acquaint students with elements and systems for energy transmission through fluids and with principles of fluid systems control. During the first four semesters, students will gain a common technical background in the field of rigid and elastic body mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermomechanics, elasticity and strength, machine parts and mechanisms, engineering technology and automation basics in the common part of the study. The third year of study is focused on hydraulics and pneumatics. The basic professional subjects are Hydraulic Mechanisms and Pneumatic Mechanisms, which are complemented by other field subjects. Students apply the acquired knowledge and skills in the field of hydraulic and pneumatic components, mechanisms and circuits. They will also get acquainted with modern CAD systems for construction work support. The graduates are thus ready to become a designer in mechanical engineering with special knowledge in the field of hydraulic and pneumatic mechanisms. |
Key Learning Outcomes |
---|
Key Lerning Outcomes are Expressed in following Structure: Knowledge, Skills, General competencies |
---|
Knowledge: |
---|
Graduates of the course "Hydraulics and Pneumatics" will gain knowledge about the design and function of hydraulic and pneumatic elements and the composition and control of systems using pressure fluid or compressed air to transfer the energy. In the framework of vocational subjects, students will broaden their knowledge of theoretical subjects. Graduates then master the laws of hydrostatics, laws of fluid flow and can use them in practice in the design, analysis, synthesis and diagnostics of hydraulic and pneumatic systems. |
Skills: |
---|
Using professional knowledge, the graduates are able to solve practical problems in the field, to find and organize the information needed to solve a given problem using computer support (CAD, etc.). They can design parts of hydraulic and pneumatic systems. They can read and draw functional diagrams of hydraulic and pneumatic circuits. Based on practical tasks, they are able to assemble hydraulic and pneumatic circuits, propose methods of their control, calculate the parameters of a steady-state circuit, and perform basic dynamic calculations. They can write a technical report, process specifications of used elements and devices, elaborate assembly, operation and maintenance guide of equipment. They can develop a diagnostic procedure and perform diagnostic measurements on components and systems. They also know the basic research procedures and methods of the field and can use them to solve practical problems. |
General competencies: |
---|
Graduates are able to present their results to the lay and professional public, defend their solutions, propose technical solutions with regard to economic, ecological, occupational safety requirements, etc. They are able to acquire professional knowledge by studying theoretical background from professional literature, but also on the basis of practical experience. They can search for the necessary data on the Internet. They can design technical solutions on the basis of a framework assignment from areas they know only partially. They prove this ability by solving individual projects in professional subjects, solving yearly projects and especially by processing and defending their bachelor thesis. They can work in a team and, to a certain extent, they can coordinate the work of a team. |
Occupational Profiles of Graduates with Examples |
---|
Graduates will find employment as designers or planners of hydraulic and pneumatic systems, or as technicians providing operation, diagnostics and repairs of fluid systems. |
Examination Regulations, Assessment and Grading |
---|
Examination regulations, assesment and grading are described in the Study and Examination Rules. |
