Learning objectives

Laboratory activities have the main purpose to teach how to properly conduct scientific experiments  with a systematic and meticulous approach.<br />
<br />
Moreover, student will learn modern systems for acquisition and processing data.

Prerequisites

None.

Course unit content

 The laboratory is organized as a bespoke activity for each student.<br />
<br />
The real content depends on the test rigs used for the time being in the Department laboratories and on the student and research time constraints.<br />
<br />
Typical activities are:<br />
<br />
1) Designing and building a test rig.<br />
2) Write a LabView application for data acquisition<br />
3) Perform a test campaign<br />
4) Write software in C language for motion design and control applications<br />
5) Modelling a mechanical system with FEM or multibody software
