Course Objectives: To develop design skills according to a Conceive-Design-Implement- Operate (CDIO)
compliant methodology. To apply engineering sciences through learning-by- doing project work. To provide a
framework to encourage creativity and innovation. To develop team work and communication skills through
group-based activity. To foster self- directed learning and critical evaluation.
To provide a basis for the technical aspects of the project a small number of lectures are incorporated into the
module. As the students would have received little in the way of formal engineering instruction at this early stage
in the degree course, the level of the lectures is to be introductory with an emphasis on the physical aspects of the
subject matter as applied to the ‘Mangonel’ project. The lecture series include subject areas such as Materials,
Structures, Dynamics and Digital Electronics delivered by experts in the field.
This module is delivered using a combination of introductory lectures and participation by the students in 15
“activities”. The activities are executed to support the syllabus of the course and might take place in specialised
laboratories or on the open ground used for firing the Mangonel. Students work in groups throughout the semester to
encourage teamwork, cooperation and to avail of the different skills of its members. In the end the students work in
sub-groups to do the Mangonel throwing arm redesign project. They assemble and operate a Mangonel, based on the
lectures and tutorials assignments of mechanical engineering they experiment with the working, critically analyse the
effect of design changes and implement the final project in a competition. Presentation of the group assembly,
redesign and individual reflection of the project is assessed in the end.
Project: The Project will facilitate the design, construction and analysis of a “Mangonel”. In addition to some
introductory lectures, the content of the students’ work during the semester will consist of:
1. the assembly of a Mangonel from a Bill Of Materials (BOM), detailed engineering
drawings of parts, assembly instructions, and few prefabricated parts ;
2. the development of a software tool to allow the trajectory of a “missile” to be studied as a function of various
operating parameters in conditions of no-drag and drag due to air;
3. a structural analysis of certain key components of the Mangonel for static and dynamic stresses using values
of material properties which will be experimentally determined;
4. the development of a micro-electronic system to allow the angular velocity of the
throwing arm to be determined;
5. testing the Mangonel;
6. redesigning the throwing arm of the Mangonel to optimise for distance without compromising its
structural integrity;
7. an inter-group competition at the end of the semester with evaluation of the group
redesign strategies.
