Control Systems are ubiquitous. Each discipline of
engineering need to understand the concept of control
systems in one form or the other. This course introduces
mathematical modeling of systems, stability analysis,
stabilization and techniques of making systems work as
desired. This course makes the students appreciate the
inherent similarities in the working principles of
electrical and mechanical systems. The concepts of

HS 301 is a unique course that aims to provide the
BTech students an understanding of philosophy and
history of ideas. Through this course they are
expected to develop philosophical analysis and
critical thinking which will enhance their engineering
imagination as a skill and profession with the training
in epistemology, logic, philosophical speculation and
creativity. The ethics-module of the course will help
them to think and act ethically in their profession with
relation to the societal expectations of their fellow
humans in India.

xii Justification/ Need for

Robotics are being used in the industries for more than
two decades now. With decreasing cost of Electronics,
computational resources, now a day's robots are being
used, now a day, by not only in industries, but also in
the fields of medicine, prosthesis, home assistance,
agriculture and so on. Even after the wide-spread use,
the challenges in the field of Robotics are far from over
and a wide range of problems demanding research in
this field are still open. Due to the blend of immediate
applications as well as scope of research, a course on
Robotics is useful for students who will join the
industries as well as those who wish to pursue research
in this field.

xii Justification/ Need for introducing
the course
The science of mechanism kinematics is roughly divided
in two divergent topics: analysis and synthesis. Analysis
(Theory of Machines) typically involves a defined
mechanism and predicting how either the coupler or the
follower will react to specific motions of the driver. A
fundamentally different problem is that of kinematic
synthesis. By kinematic synthesis, it means the design or
creation of a mechanism to attain specific motion
characteristics. In this sense, synthesis is the inverse of
analysis. Synthesis is the very essence of design because
it represents the creation of new hardware to meet
particular requirements of motion: displacement,
velocity, acceleration; individually or in combination.

xii Justification/ Need for
introducing the course
Theory of elasticity (TOE) is a course which investigates
effect of external loads on deformable bodies. Unlike
mechanics of materials, TOE is more rigorous as it relaxes
many assumptions of mechanics of materials. Thus, it paves
way to analyse solids beyond structural elements like beams,
trusses and shafts. This approach for generalization invokes
more rigor mathematically. In this course, we linearize
strains and stress-strain relation to attempt problems from
mechanics of materials in the new perspective i.e. from TOE
approach but not limited to it. Thus, it aims to appreciate the
need for experimental mechanics techniques like
Photoelasticity, Thermoelastic stress analysis, DIC and the
need for computational tools like FEM.

This course would focus on the Modernist period in

between this ‘hero’ and the ‘Anti-Hero? How has the
figure of the Hero evolved?

The languages that programmers use are constantly
changing, and the
popular languages of today will surely be replaced by
new ones. The
objective of this course is to provide students with a
working
2016 Batch ME 101
knowledge of the basic principles underlying the
design of all
computer programming languages. Students
completing this course should
be able to quickly learn to effectively use new
computer programming
languages. In particluar, after taking this course
students should be
able to do the following:
Evaluate programming language features and
designs.
Solve problems using the functional, object-oriented,
and declarative
paradigms.
Describe the strengths and limitations of the
imperative, functional
and object-oriented paradigms for solving different
kinds of problems
(or in different application domains), especially in
relation to each
other.
Explain and answer questions about specific
languages that illustrate
different paradigms, including questions about
relevant concepts and
major features.
Design, define, and evaluate parts of programming
languages or similar
systems and justify your design decisions.

CFD is an integral part of the design process in
mechanical, aerospace, and chemical industries, as well as
a topic of active research. Training at the undergraduate
and early-postgraduate level will enable students to take
advantage of opportunities in these areas.
The course aims to provide an introduction to
discretization and solution of the equations of fluid
dynamics and heat transfer. Students will gain an
appreciation of the principles of the finite-volume method,
experience in writing and debugging scientific codes, and
solving and analysing a problem using a commercial/open-
source package. Students should expect to devote
significant time to learning via coding assignments and
project.

xii Justification/ Need for introducing the

Accounting is the language of business. The
basic function of language is to serve as a means
of communication. Accounting also serves this
2016 Batch ME 130
function. It communicates the results of business
operations to various parties who have some
stake in the business viz., the proprietor,
creditors, investors, Government and other
agencies. Finance covers any decision made by
firms which have financial implications. Thus,
there is finance aspect to almost every action
taken by a firm, no matter which functional area
claims responsibility for it.
Knowledge of management, particularly
accounting and finance, is an important value
addition to engineering graduates .It enhances
their placement opportunities.
