Design of a Kinematic Device: Report Writing Assignment

Internal Code: MAS1048

Report Writing Assignment:

Objective: You are to design a kinematic device that you can later manufacture (using technology at Deakin – laser cutting, 3D printing etc.) and test. Your design must have a central rotating part that causes periodic motion elsewhere in the device (ideally this motion will not be symmetric). Your design must allow for subsequent testing if it is manufactured – i.e. you must design it with space to place sensors in mind. The deliverable for this assessment item will be a report (max. 10 pages) which covers the design of the device. This report should also cover all of the dynamics and demonstrate that the device meets the design criteria (manufacturable (at Deakin), testable, central rotating part and have at least 1 component that has subsequent motion). You are required to submit an individual report.
