Experimental and development work in the automotive industry
Description: The discipline studies experimental and development work in the automotive industry. Development work, its purpose, and stages of implementation are considered. Students analyze methods for creating models and full-scale mockups, prototypes and pre-production samples. Students learn methods of testing them in laboratory conditions and at test sites. Students acquire vehicle testing skills, learn methods for identifying erroneous design and technological solutions, and methods for fine-tuning the design.

Goal
- obtaining new knowledge of a search, theoretical and experimental nature, in order to determine the technical feasibility of creating new equipment within a certain time frame.
Objective
- Study of modern principles, methodological approaches, methods, algorithms in the field under study, as well as prototypes of various technical solutions to applied scientific and technical problems in the automotive industry;
- Research of materials for the development, modeling, prototyping and experimental research of individual technical (design, software, technological) solutions, production of models, layouts, experimental samples, prototypes of new types (types) of products, technological processes, equipment
- development (formulation) of technical requirements for the implementation of work to create new (improved) types of products and technologies.
Learning outcome: knowledge and understanding
- knowledge of modern principles, methodological approaches, methods, algorithms in the field of experimental and development work in the automotive industry
Learning outcome: applying knowledge and understanding
- application of knowledge and understanding in the development, modeling, prototyping and experimental research of individual technical (design, software, technological) solutions
Assessment of the student's knowledge
Teacher oversees various tasks related to ongoing assessment and determines students' current performance twice during each academic period. Ratings 1 and 2 are formulated based on the outcomes of this ongoing assessment. The student's learning achievements are assessed using a 100-point scale, and the final grades P1 and P2 are calculated as the average of their ongoing performance evaluations. The teacher evaluates the student's work throughout the academic period in alignment with the assignment submission schedule for the discipline. The assessment system may incorporate a mix of written and oral, group and individual formats.
| Period | Type of task | Total |
|---|---|---|
| 1 rating | development of technical proposal | 0-100 |
| development of a preliminary design | ||
| 2 rating | development of technical project | 0-100 |
| development of a working draft | ||
| Total control | Exam | 0-100 |

Evaluation form
The student's final grade in the course is calculated on a 100 point grading scale, it includes:
- 40% of the examination result;
- 60% of current control result.
The final grade is calculated by the formula:
| FG = 0,6 | MT1+MT2 | +0,4E |
| 2 |
Where Midterm 1, Midterm 2are digital equivalents of the grades of Midterm 1 and 2;
E is a digital equivalent of the exam grade.
Final alphabetical grade and its equivalent in points:
The letter grading system for students' academic achievements, corresponding to the numerical equivalent on a four-point scale:
| Alphabetical grade | Numerical value | Points (%) | Traditional grade |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | 4.0 | 95-100 | Excellent |
| A- | 3.67 | 90-94 | |
| B+ | 3.33 | 85-89 | Good |
| B | 3.0 | 80-84 | |
| B- | 2.67 | 75-79 | |
| C+ | 2.33 | 70-74 | |
| C | 2.0 | 65-69 | Satisfactory |
| C- | 1.67 | 60-64 | |
| D+ | 1.33 | 55-59 | |
| D | 1.0 | 50-54 | |
| FX | 0.5 | 25-49 | Unsatisfactory |
| F | 0 | 0-24 |
