1. Hydraulics laboratory works (GROUPS) are now over.1.1 Pneumatics laboratory works to start soon- Do not have your best clothes on! There is mineral oil in the lab. Protective gloves and overcoats available.- Check the MAPS (<- LINK)- Read the Instructions (<- LINK) before entering the laboratory, you will discuss the its topics with the teacher before the actual session starts- Only one member of the GROUP has to enroll.- See the schedule below or on the TOOL page.- The time window for this will be weeks 6-8 (including the examination week).- Earn some points by attending: 1. GROUP's points and 2. personal points.- If you personally can't attend the laboratory exercise at the same time as the other members, choose another time slot, join another group just for this session.- If problems, please write an email! (jyrki.kajaste@aalto.fi)More information soon!2. Simulation session on Monday in Maarintalo, (Maari C-D).On Thursday the classroom is again R102 (<- link, page includes a link to map!) in Väre building, Aalto School of Arts, Design and Architecture.However, the room has capacity of 31, only!- Check the MAPS (<- LINK)- Materials now available under Simulation assignment (<- link)- If you attend to use Matlab with your own computer, you can download the software from Aalto Download (<- link). Install Matlab, Simulink, and Simscape with Isothermal Liquid library.- On Thursdays the classroom is R102 (<- link, page includes a link to map!) in Väre building, Aalto School of Arts, Design and Architecture. The room has capacity of 31, only!Note: Matlab is in "Classrooms, All except ARTS and BIZ specific". Have to check what that means!3. Some "hints" added for Research Assignment 1. (5.2.2024)4. Research group selection time window expanded! Plese, enroll ASAP!5. Calculation exercises materials available (exercise 2)6. Lecture slides added7. Hints for literature and videos down below. Please, check!Most of the points in this course come from Research Assignments which are made by Research Groups.Materials for the Research Assignment 1 are available now (Saturday 20.1.2024).Calculation exercises (starting on Friday) are voluntary sessions during which you can practice your skills in calculations.We will use Mathcad as the calculation tool in a) exercises and in b) Research Assignments.Materials available for the 1st session. Equation collection and Template 1.Mathcad Instructions:Mathcad should be available in Aalto's workstations (also remotely), check course's Calculation exercises (later) page for instructions.
