    Thank you for the course!

    Topical: (19.12.2021 update)

    The total course has been GRADED and the information should be in SISU now.

    If you notice any issues, please, contact jyrki.kajaste@aalto.fi !

    See also feedback files for

    Simscape Simulation assignment 2 (GROUPS) is GRADED -> feedback files available!

    Assignment 2 HERE is GRADED -> feedback files available!!

    The total grading is simply like this:
    boundary 90 points -> 5
    boundary 80 points ->4
    boundary 70 points ->3

    Happy holidays and  New Year 2022! See you later!

    BW,

    ..... old material below .....

    We will have to skip the "group discussions" and "laboratory visits" this year. Sorry!

    Some information still to come!

    ... older material below ...

    Deadlines this week ... and Group discussions ...

    Assignment 2 HERE (deadline 7.12.2021)

     Simscape Simulation assignment 2 (GROUPS) (deadline 10.12.2021)

    Lecture on Tuesday 7.12.2021 ONLY IN TEAMS

    Group discussions ... the next week
    The initial idea was to organize laboratory visit and dicussion with the research groups. However ... because of some "challenges", the laboratory visits are not possible this autumn. However ...
    - discussion with the groups in TEAMS (the next week, suggestion 14.12. or 15.12. lecture/exercise times)
    - points a) for the GROUP and b) for the individual students
    You can reserve a time for your group today during lesson. Otherwise we will have discussion by using emails, for instance.

    Attention!

    With the new and better(?) Matlab (R2021b) version it is possible that all the Simscape applications do not .... converge.

    The problem might be related to Phase 4, at least.

    New and quick solutions, how to tackle this issue can be found under Simscape Simulation assignment 1 - link HERE

    Course:

    You can see the schedule on the right side -> AND also as a Table 100 mm below.

    Most of the sessions will be in TEAMS. However, we still try to ... at least

    - visit the laboratory

    - have a "group discussion"

    In our Fluid Power courses we will use …

    • Matlab
    • Simulink
    • Simscape Fluids (in this Systems course)

      As you have Aalto's IT license, you can download Matlab and some other useful software to your personal computers, if you like from web page .... https://download.aalto.fi/index-en.html

    • We will use also Mathcad, but you can’t download it from Aalto’s pages.
    Preliminary schedule

    "See you!"
