Course Description
This course introduces Industry 4.0 and its application to modern manufacturing and business, Internet of Things and cloud environment, Internet of systems, additive manufacturing, automation and robotics.
Objectives/Learning Outcomes/Capability Development
This course contributes to the following Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs):
1.1 Descriptive, formula based understanding of the underpinning natural and physical sciences and the engineering fundamentals applicable to the practice area.
1.2 Procedural level understanding of the mathematics, numerical analysis, statistics, and computer and information sciences which underpin the practice area.
1.3 In depth practical knowledge and skills within specialist subdisciplines of the practice area.
2.2 Application of technical and practical techniques, tools and resources to well defined engineering problems.
On completion of this course, you should be able to: 1. Explain the basic concepts of Industry 4.0 or latest technology and its impact on manufacturing 2. Define the principles of Internet of Things (IoT), cloud environment and its application to modern manufacturing needs of business 3. Demonstrate an understanding of the additive manufacturing practices 4. Configure and optimise automation systems, sensors, feedback and control 5. Demonstrate applications of automation systems, sensors, feedback and control 6. Demonstrate applications of Industry 4.0 technology into manufacturing
Overview of Learning Activities
Face to face teaching: to obtain an introduction to electrical fundamentals, electronic devices and circuits, and an introduction to application of these principles to basic problem solving. Personal reading (e.g. prescribed sections of the textbook: to reinforce/strengthen your understanding of principles and applications. Test(s): assessed during semester. Solutions will be discussed in the class to provide you with the feedback that helps to improve the for final examination. Simulation, Videos, Lab sessions: to understand the key concepts, practical applications, analyse results. You are encouraged to watch videos on special topics available in the RMIT library. The lab work/simulations allow you to develop skills in understanding the application of the concepts of Industry 4.0. Problem based learning: practical problems given to solve both individually and in smaller groups to strengthen team-based learning.
Overview of Learning Resources
Learning resources will consist of recommended references and class notes which may be accessed through CANVAS. The set of references is deliberately broad, including books, journal publications, government reports, industry standards, handbooks, and web-based resources.
