Introduction
Shafts: Function, design, manufacturing, dimensioning, strength analysis
Hub-shaft joints: shrink fit, conical seat, feather and multiple spline joints
Roller bearings: contact stresses, types and construction of roller bearings, dimensioning, lubrication and design of seats, sealing problems
Journal bearings: lubrication theory and design
Welded joints: dimensioning and design
Gears: functions and types
spur and bevel gears: kinematics of gears, stress analysis and design
Worm gears
Belt and chain drives, CVTs of belt or chain type
Couplings, clutches and breaks: simple thermal analysis of clutches and breaks

Criteria for evaluation |
Written and oral exam. The written exam consists of two problems; both problems concern the assessment of a small machine assembly by calculations. In total, 50 % must be accomplished in order to be allowed to take the oral exam. Exception: in the 3rd attempt, an oral exam is always included. The oral exam consists of two questions, which are mostly rather general. The examiner typically asks interim questions to check the mastering of the subject.
