2. Pre-Requisites
Not established
3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
This subject is part of the second module (common to the Industrial branch). It is closely related to the "Materials in Chemical Engineering" and "Design of equipment and instalations" subjects. This subject provides the basic background (Materials resistance and Machine Science) required for the mechanical design of the main equipment used in the Chemical Industry

5. Objectives or Learning Outcomes
| Course learning outcomes | |
|---|---|
| Description | |
| To understand the dynamics of the mechanisms, either alone or integrated in machines. | |
| To learn the basics of static and material resistance. | |
| To learn the basic concepts about the operation of machines and mechanisms, as well as being able to distinguish their different types. | |
| To be able to perform the kinematic analysis of the mechanisms, understanding the basis of the kinematics of the solid in the plane and being able to extrapolate it to the case of mechanisms. | |
| To recognize the different types of efforts that can act on a team and establish the criteria of resistance (tensions and admissible deformations) that allow designing it with reliability. | |

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Assessment of active participation | 15.00% | 0.00% | Resolution of problems and tasks during the seminars |
| Assessment of problem solving and/or case studies | 15.00% | 0.00% | resolution of practical cases and tasks |
| Mid-term tests | 70.00% | 0.00% | Resolution of applied theoretical questions and basic problems. The average mark of the partial tests must be equal to five or higher whereas the minimum mark in the mid-term tests must be greater than four. |
| Final test | 0.00% | 100.00% | Final exam that includes evaluation of all the content and training activities of the subject |
| Total: | 100.00% | 100.00% |
According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).
Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:To succesfully pass the subject a minimum mark of 4/10 in each part should be obtained by the student and an average mark above 5/10.
The students who have not succesfully passed some of the mid-term exams will be examinated of that part of the subject, keeping the mark of the mid-term that has already succesfully passed (for this call) -
Non-continuous evaluation:The student will examine all the material taught and all the activities carried out in the subject, through an exam in the corresponding call, whose grade must be equal to or greater than five
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
To succesfully pass the subject a minimum mark of 5/10 should be obtained.
If the student has obtained a mark of 5 or more in some mid-term exam, he/she has the option to take the exam only of the mid-term part not succesfully passed.
If the student has obtained a mark of 5 or more in some mid-term exam, he/she has the option to take the exam only of the mid-term part not succesfully passed.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
To succesfully pass the subject a minimum mark of 5/10 should be obtained
