MATLAB
EG-264
Computer Aided Engineering
Dr Mike Clee
College of Engineering
Swansea University
Semester 1, 2014-2015
General Information
• Lectures and Computer Laboratory Classes
– Two 1-hour lecture slots allocated to these courses in the timetable
• These slots will be used in weeks 2-4
– Throughout term a PC lab session is available every week • Students should attend lab sessions when possible
Semester 1, 2014-2015
Structure of EG-264
• Two components
– MATLAB – Revision, Numerical Integration, Root
Finding
• Dr Mike Clee
• Lectures – Weeks 2-4, Labs – Weeks 3-5
• 50% 1 assignment
– CAD – Solidworks
• Dr Chengyuan Wang
• Lectures Weeks 5-6, Labs – Weeks 6-12
• 50% – 1 assignments
Semester 1, 2014-2015
General Information
• MATLAB lab slots
– There will be demonstrators in each lab to help with MATLAB worksheets – Each student has the opportunity to complete the assignment during the lab sessions
– Remember - MATLAB labs will be held between Week 3 and Week 5 this is where help will be available.
• Every year, over 40% of level-3 research projects involve the use of MATLAB
– The only way to master MATLAB is to practice!
– Revision worksheets are available on Blackboard for practice in your own time during weeks 3-5
– Should also put the examples from the lecture notes into MATLAB
– Try to understand what each command is doing
Semester 1, 2014-2015
Assessment – MATLAB 1 component
• You will be asked to submit your MATLAB solutions to specific problems
– Worth 50% of total marks for the module
– Assignment will be made available on Blackboard this week ready for labs next week
– Deadline for Submission – Friday 31st October 2014
Semester 1, 2014-2015
Academic Honesty
• Read sections on unfair practice and plagiarism in College of Engineering and University handbooks
• Students encouraged to work together on course examples – Help each other learn the material
• However……
– Your coursework submission must only contain work that represents your own
