基于MATLAB的机械优化设计课程数字化教学改革

Digitalized Teaching Reform of Mechanical Optimal Design Based on MATLAB

针对目前机械优化设计教材普遍存在课程内容理论化过强、数学基础要求太高、公式推导繁琐、难于实现计算等问题,严重影响教学效果的现状,本文从教学内容、教学方法、实验环节及考试方式等方面出发提出相关的改革措施,引入MAT-LAB优化工具箱解决具体优化实例,充分体现经典理论与现代计算手段相结合,将抽象概念形象化,使一些复杂的计算问题得以实现,激发学生学习的兴趣,培养解决问题的能力,提高教学质量,实现机械优化设计课程数字化教学。

Measures of teaching reform of teaching contents, teaching methods, experiment configuration and examination methods are presented in this paper to cope with some common problems in the current mechanical optimization teaching materials, such as the excessive theofization in content and requirements in mathematical foundation, the tediousness in deducing equation, the difficulty in calculation,etc. MATLAB optimization toolbox is adopted to solve the concrete optimization problems by visualizing the abstract con- cept. This combination of classical theory and modem calculation tool overcomes some complicated problems, which has a positive effect on stimulating students ＇ interest,improving teaching quality and digitallzation of mechanical optimization courses.
