INTRODUCTIONRapid strides in science and technology make it imperative that the educationof professionals be continued over their entire career rather than be confinedto a single stretch. What is needed is a complete integration of education withwork during their productive life span, which will be adequate to help them copewith new demands. Continuing Education embraces all the processes ofeducation that one undergoes throughout a working life and which have arelevance to the practical problems likely to be encountered in one’s career. Itmay be realised through formal and informal modes of teaching, or throughmass media. In recent years, there has been a growing awareness on the partof Universities that imparting knowledge to people beyond their boundaries isan equally important part of their service to the community. With this broadperspective of their function in society, Universities have begun to seek waysof reaching out to professionals. The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) hasevolved several mechanisms to make the expertise and facilities available toqualified technical people in industries, Universities and research establishments.The need for forging links between academic institutions and industries andR&D organisations has been a goal set for the IISc by its illustrious founder,J.N. Tata.

PROFICIENCEwas established with the objective of providing a sustained andrigorous continuing education program offering courses on subjects of topicalinterest to scientists and engineers in and around Bangalore. This program,believed to be the first of its kind in the country, is a joint venture between IIScand several Professional Institutions/Societies in Bangalore. The program namesignifies the coming together of Professional Institutions and the Indian Instituteof Science. It was started on an experimental basis in 1980 and has proved tobe extremely popular and has attracted wide attention in academic andprofessional circles. The demand for some courses, especially on computers,microprocessors and management is so overwhelming that it has not beenpossible to admit all the eligible applicants. Every year, there has been a steadyincrease in the number of students as well as the types of courses offeredindicative of the growing popularity of this Program.

IISc is the custodian of the academic standards of all PROFICIENCE courses.It has the responsibility of evolving appropriate teaching norms, providing thevenue and facilities for conducting courses, organising the tests andexaminations and issuing certificates to the successful participants. These tasksare coordinated by the Centre for Continuing Education (CCE).

2PROFICIENCE

COURSES

The continuing education program organised under PROFICIENCE offers semester long coursesin areas of topical interest. The courses are organised during evening hours so that workingprofessionals can participate without getting their normal work affected. All courses are normallyat the postgraduate level and many of these are in fact offered to the IISc students regularly.Participants in certain selected courses are provided practical training in computer and otherlaboratories, as appropriate. The course contents are regularly upgraded on the basis of feedbackfrom the faculty and the participants. Courses are offered during the period AUG-DEC andJAN-MAY and around 15-20 courses are scheduled during each semester.

Each course has lectures at the rate of two or three hours per week depending upon thenumber of course credits. Tests and examinations are conducted according to the IIScnorms. A series of courses leading to different specialisations are offered in a sequentialmanner, especially in the area of Computer Science and Engineering. This would enablethe participants who start with the entry level courses progress towards more advancedones and specialise in one of the streams.

EVALUATIONThe total marks for assessment will be equally distributed between the sessional workand end semester examination. The sessional work consists of class tests, midsemesterexamination, homework assignments etc. as determined by the instructor. The participantswho maintain a minimum of 75% attendance both in the theory and computer/laboratoryclasses will be evaluated based on the combined performance in the end semesterexamination and sessional work and assigned a letter grade.

NO RE-EXAMINATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

The letter grades carry a qualitative assessment as indicated below:

S-Outstanding; A-Excel lent ; B-Very Good; C-Good; D-Sat is factory; F-Fai l .

CERTIFICATES

Certificates will be issued only to those who get at least a ‘D’ grade. Attendancecertificates shall not be issued to any one. This being a continuing education programmeant especially for self improvement, the credits accumulated cannot be equated withthe credits earned through formal education. There shall be no claims for PROFICIENCEcredits being counted towards partial fulfillment of credit requirements towards any degree/diploma or other formal recoginitions offered by IISc.

Formal Course completion certificates will not be issued under any circumstances to anycandidate.

FACULTY

The instructors for the courses are mostly Institute Faculty. However, competentprofessionals from other R&D organisations and industries are also involved in teachingsome of the courses.

FACILITIESComputer Lab: A Computer Laboratory with 32 Intel-Pentium machines,4 Celeron machines,2 Unix PC-Servers and a Silicon Graphics work station with a variety of latest software hasbeen set up for the PROFICIENCE program. All these machines have been locallynetworked. A good collection of video cassettes pertaining to several courses is also availablefor viewing at the Centre for the participants. The Computer Laboratory is located at theCentre for Continuing Education (CCE) Building.Library: PROFICIENCE participants can avail of the facility of IISc Main Library and theycan also make use of the books in CCE.

Schedule:

FRIDAYS - 6.00 p.m. to 8.00 p.m.

ObjectivesAdvanced research in material science to enhance the life with reduced cost resulted in metalalloys, plastics, composites. Structural design and optimization of components with unusualshapes became possible with current available finite element software such as ANSYS, NISA,NASTRON, ABACUS, SYSNOISE, LSDYNA etc. The fundamental knowledge of stress, strain,shear, torsion in relation to the structures and S-N curves in relation to the material becomesimportant. The interpretation of the FEM software output calls for the knowledge of analysis anddesign optimization of mechanical systems. This course essentially trains an engineer in theindustry to optimally design various mechanical systems and sub-systems for technically superiorand commercially viable value added product.

SyllabusStrength of materials, concept of stress, strain and fatigue. Constitutive laws. Engineeringmaterials and their properties. Structural analysis concepts, tension, compression, shear, torsionand S-N curves. Stability of elements of structures.

Principles of optimization, formulation of objective function and design constraints, classificationof optimization problem. Single and multivariable optimization. Optimization with equality andinequality constraints.

Optimal design of mechanical elements – fasteners, springs, gears, bearings, belts, clutches,brakes, shafts and axles. Procedures for product design, development and testing.

Case studies in structural analysis and optimal design of industrial products (Rail-coach-couplers, Car door window regulator, satellite tracking antenna, Doppler weather radar antenna,hydraulic crawler driller, Bike brake system, Box- culvert, thermally insulated box, IP turbineblade failure analysis, design analysis of super pump impeller, Hydraulic jacks with intermediatesupports etc).
