M.Tech in Machine Design
About the Course
The Department of Mechanical Engineering started a PG course on M. Tech in Machine Design in the academic year 2006 with the intake of 18.
Machine Design occupies a prominent position in field of Mechanical Engineering. It deals with the analysis of a machine component subjected to Static and Dynamic loads under given boundary conditions, for a particular application.
The task of the machine designer has never been easy, since he has to consider a number of factors which are not always compatible. Today designer is required to account for many factors and considerations, which are almost impossible for one individual to be thoroughly conversant with. This has resulted in a need for advanced education at Masters Level in the field of Machine Design.
M.TECH in Machine Design deals with subjects like
- Theory of Elasticity and Plasticity
- Theory of Mechanical Vibrations
- Finite Element Methods
- Experimental Stress Analysis
- Advanced Material Technology
- Fracture Mechanics
- Theory of Plates and Shells
- Numerical Methods
Machine Design Engineers find placement in Aerospace Industry, Automobile Industry, Marine Industry, Machine Tool Industry, etc.
R. V. College of Engineering with its rich history of imparting excellent technical education is ideally suited to offer the M. Tech. programme in Machine Design.
RVCE has excellent infrastructure and experienced faculty to run the Masters programme.
