基于学科竞赛的机械优化设计课程教学改革研究

机械优化设计是把机械设计与优化设计理论及方法相结合,借助电子计算机,自动寻找实现预期目标的最优设计方案和最佳设计参数的一种有效的设计方法。应用机械优化设计方法,不仅能使设计周期大大缩短,计算精度显著提高,而且可以解决传统设计方法所不能解决的比较复杂的最优化设计问题。机械类本科生学科竞赛旨在培养大学生的创新思维、创新能力及科研实践能力,将机械优化设计课程教学与机械类学科竞赛相结合,为机械类学生参加机械设计学科竞赛提供理论支撑,对学生高质量完成学科竞赛课题具有重要的指导意义。

Optimization of Mechanical Design is the course that combines mechanical design with theories and methods of optimization design.By the aid of electronic computer,it is also an effective design method being able to automatically seek and realize optimized targets with effective design schemes and suitable design parameters.By the application of optimization method of mechanical design,the design period is greatly shortened and the calculation accuracy is significantly raised as well.Moreover,it can solve complex optimization design problems that traditional design methods cannot solve.Academic competition aims to cultivate creative thinking,innovative ability and practical ability for undergraduate students from mechanical major.By combining the teaching reform on the course of Optimization of Mechanical Design with academic competitions of mechanical design,theoretical support can be provided for attending academic competitions of mechanical design for students in mechanical major,which is meaningful for guiding students to finish the work of academic competitions in high quality.
