Goal
  • It is correct technically and economically justified to choose means of transport, taking into account mining conditions, to carry out calculations of transport vehicles in order to select their optimal or rational parameters and modes of operation; carry out pre-project work on transport vehicles for the technology adopted at the enterprise and for mining operations.
Objective
  • Creation of students' theoretical foundations in the field of transport vehicles; - obtaining knowledge about the designs of existing types of transport vehicles and their technical and economic characteristics; - the ability to calculate the productivity of machines and justify their choice for a given technological process; - acquisition of skills in the analysis of kinematic schemes and features of transport vehicles, in the operation of the main and auxiliary equipment.
Learning outcome: knowledge and understanding
  • Knowledge and understanding of: - theoretical foundations in the field of transport vehicles; - designs of existing types of transport vehicles; - determining the performance of transport vehicles; - design of transport vehicles in accordance with the norms of technological design, the requirements of safety rules and technical operation.
Learning outcome: applying knowledge and understanding
  • Understanding structures and definitions, the ability to apply knowledge of the features and procedure for calculating, selecting and designing transport vehicles.
Learning outcome: formation of judgments
  • Formation of judgments: are able to integrate knowledge and deal with complex issues and formulate judgments based on incomplete or limited information on the application or development of new designs of transport vehicles, taking into account the social and ethical responsibility associated with the use of their knowledge and judgments.
Learning outcome: communicative abilities
  • Communication: can communicate their conclusions and the knowledge and rationale used to formulate them on the operation of existing and the development of new designs of transport vehicles to specialists and non-specialists clearly and consistently.
Learning outcome: learning skills or learning abilities
  • Learning skills: have the ability to use transport vehicles in the field of mining, selection of equipment and machine parameters for the productive work of a mining enterprise

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 An individual assignment is given to each student for the rating. 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
