ME 4182 / GT 4823 You are part of an experiment to create the most high-profile, rewarding, expensive, hard-working course at Georgia Tech and a model for mechanical design education at engineering schools worldwide http: //mecapstone. gatech. edu/ Individual Section Intro ALL-Sections Intro 1 st 2 nd 1
Section Introduction 2
What is ME 4182 and GT 4823 all about? Application of the design process: 1. To solve an engineering problem… 2. Which includes interdisciplinary parameters… i. ii. Materials, controls, fluids, structures, heat transfer, …. Human factors, engineering economy, safety, etc. 3. In a team structure… 4. To design a solution… i. iii. iv. A mechanical device A machine A system An app, 5. That performs the functions established by a project description derived from the problem. Each team produces detailed drawings, detailed specifications, presentations, and a proof-of-concept (virtual or real) of the proposed design solution. 3
What is ME 4182 and GT 4823 all about? Goals for the course: 1. Identify an unmet need WHAT”S THE PROBLEM? 2. Invent/design something useful CREATIVITY, INNOVATION 3. Apply your analytical knowledge to design it ANALYTICAL SKILLS 4. Prove it will work (Simulate it, build it, test it, virtually, physically) MODELING AND HANDS-ON 5. Document everything (design notebooks, reports, presentations) 6. Demonstrate it at the Expo 7. Give to sponsor for use or patent it and start company 4
Main Lecture Topics 1. Course Overview, Projects, Teams and Bids, Communication 2. User needs / Engineering Design Specifications 3. Industrial Design & Human Factors 4. Ideation, Concept Generation, Design Process 5. Market research and Prior Art 6. Risk, Liability, Codes & Standards 7. Analysis 8. Social, environmental, sustainability considerations 9. Mockups and prototypes; why and when 10. Intellectual Property Protection, Filing Patent Claims 11. Forming a company 12. Communication to non-technical audiences Associated deliverables and reports are due in your section meeting during the semester 5

But what’s the problem? • Your own. . • . . or sponsored… – projects. gatech. edu/projects 7
Project overview A variety of projects for teams of 4 -6 people: – Industrial (big and small) – Research lab – Developing country/sustainability – NAE Grand Challenges – Your own idea! • Sponsored projects. gatech. edu/projects 8
How are teams matched to projects? • Two avenues – Bid for a sponsored project – Propose your own • Teams are matched to projects and to faculty (see the FAQ here) • Even if you plan on bidding for sponsored projects, should have a “Plan B (C, and D)” project idea of your own 9
What is a Good Bid? Basically, convince us that you are the best group for the project. Tell us: • What is your understanding of the project? • Why do you want the project? • What are your skills, talents, experiences relevant to the project? • Anything else that is relevant 10
Elements of a Good Student Project 1. What’s the problem? 2. Creative/Innovative - not just an assembly of off-the-shelf parts (room for novelty) 3. Lends itself to analysis 4. Sufficient scope for senior design 5. Team should have or acquire the skills to complete the project. 6. Produce a proof-of-concept and learn from it § Design revisions § Validate design decisions 11
Section meetings • ~ 30 min/wk with your team and your instructor • Your instructor provides weekly mentorship, receives deliverables, assigns grades, etc. 12
Section meetings GT 4823 • Students in GT 4823: – All BMEs need to attend BME 4602 lectures – All ECEs need to attend ECE 4012 lectures – All MEs and MSEs should attend lectures on TR 3 -3: 50 pm in Arch (East) #123 – First common studio for all disciplines on Thursday, 23 rd August at 12: 00 pm in Co. C #53 13

Role of the Capstone Advisors • Advise the design process – – – Map the expectations & outcomes to each unique project Ask good questions To require alternatives and implications To require analysis To be a resource Challenge you • Sponsor scoping, advice, expectation management • Not designers; not decision makers – Help guide you to answer the questions yourselves • Subject matter experts – But you’re to try to answer/solve the problem first!
