Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Imagine, design, carry out and operate solutions (machines, equipment, processes, systems and units) to provide a solution to a complex problem by integrating needs, constraints, context and technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental issues.
    • Identify complex problems to be solved and develop the specifications by integrating needs, contexts and technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental issues.
    • Optimally design and calculate the dimensions of machinery, equipment, processes, systems or units, based on state of the art, a study or model, addressing the problem raised; evaluate them in light of various parameters of the specifications.
  • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out mechanical engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
    • Identify and discuss possible applications of new and emerging technologies in the field of mechanical engineering.
  • Adopt a professional and responsible approach, showing an open and critical mind in an independent professional development process.
    • Exploit the different means available in order to inform and train independently.
  • Contribute by researching the innovative solution of a problem in engineering sciences.
    • Adequately interpret results taking into account the reference framework within which the research was developed.

Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of the course the students will be:
- Familiar with the key methodologies used for flow simulations with multiphysics coupling (Fluid-Structure Interaction, Aeroacoustics...) and with the concepts used for single and multi-objective shape optimization driven by CFD simulations.
- Able to judiciously use CFD and multiphysics simulation and optimization software.
