Title: Introductory Mechatronics
Hours: 16
Credits: 5
Teachers: Alberto Parmiggiani, Nikolaos Tsagarakis, Emanuele Guglielmino, Traveler Hauptman
Course Objectives:
This short course is intended to present graduate students
the basic concepts about mechatronics, mechanical components, and production
technologies. Given the relatively short duration of the course it will not be
possible to cover in details all the topics. Nevertheless the course will
provide essential notions regarding the hardware aspects of mechatronic devices.
Coherently with the institute’s interdisciplinary approach the course has been
tailored to needs of students whose background is different from mechanical
engineering.
