Experimental Methods and instrumentation

Description

This course introduces the principles, techniques, and tools used in experimental measurements within mechanical and multidisciplinary engineering fields. Students will study the fundamentals of measurement systems, error analysis, calibration, data acquisition, and signal processing. The course covers a wide range of sensors and transducers for measuring physical parameters such as temperature, pressure, flow, displacement, strain, force, and vibration. Emphasis is placed on experimental design, instrumentation selection, uncertainty analysis, and data interpretation to ensure accuracy and reliability in engineering applications.
