1. For a passenger automobile, partition the principle parts into four subsystems and their components. For the subsystems, group together components concerned with each primary function. For defining the components, use the principles of significance, singularity and commonality. Indicate where you may have doubts. Draw a block diagram relating the subsystems and components to the system and to each other. 2. List the test interfaces and built-in test indicators in an automobile that are available to the user (do not include those only available to a mechanic).

The rapid progress of engineering design and information technology has caused difficulties in analyzing system reliability. Because of the increased complexity in system reliability structure (component/subsystem interfaces), many unexpected failure modes could occur, and their behaviors are interdependent. At a system’s design and development stage, the main challenge in analyzing a complex system is the failure uncertainty introduced by the incomplete knowledge of the system. This makes it hard to decompose system reliability into subsystem/component reliability in a deterministic manner, such as series or parallel systems. As a result, some common reliability analysis tools such as fault tree (FT) and reliability block diagram (RBD) become inadequate. Do you agree, why or why not? Are there any other approaches to system reliability assessment beside these tools at the early system’s design and development stage (what are these approaches)?
If the outcome of a test was suspected to be dependent on the ability to control the test operatingconditions, what strategy should be incorporated into the test plan to estimate this effect?
First read Section 2.14 of the Kaminski & Jensen text entitled, The “Pizza” Procedure for Problem Solving (silly name maybe, but it underscores the need to break large problems intomanageable parts). In describing the major parts of the procedure for solving engineeringproblems, an analogy is made to a stool with three legs. Name and describe in a few words the3 “legs” of the procedure for solving engineering problems:
Consider the basic EOQ model. We want to know the sensitivity of (1) the optimal order quantity, (2) the sum of the annual order cost and the annual holding cost (not including the annual purchase cost cD), and(3) the time between orders to various parameters of the problem. a. How do (1), (2), and (3) change if the setup cost K decreases by 10%? b. How do (1), (2), and (3) change if the annual demand doubles? c. How do (1), (2), and (3) change if the cost of capital increases by 10%? (For this part, assume that the storage cost s is zero.) d. How do (1), (2), and (3) change if the changes in parts a, b, and c all occur simultaneously?

Thermocouples are devices used to measure temperature of a given sample or the surroundingmedium. These devices feature a “bead”, which has a spherical shape, and produces voltage upon changein temperature. For an engineering application at a pharmaceutical company, thermocouple devices arebeing tested for their responsiveness, i.e. how fast it can detect temperature changes in the environment(surrounding air). The engineers at this company have specified design constraints for an idealthermocouple: it must detect temperature changes no later than 1.5 minute, and the reportedtemperature value must be reasonably correct: at most %3 difference between measured and actualtemperature values is allowed.Four thermocouples from different vendors are being tested. Relevant properties of these devices arelisted below: The experiment involves placing the thermocouple from air at 20 °C to air at 150 °C, and monitoring thetime it takes for the measured values to reach 150 °C, which is the…

Simulation Accuracy and Typical Faults When modelling systems, many assumptions have to be made. These can lead to erroneous results, affecting accuracy. Determine the likely faults that can arise from the application of simulation techniques. By evaluating modelling methods, discuss these methods and evaluate the data accuracy, both in terms of model development and results analysis. Looking at the CFD model of the electric car in Assignment 3, explore in detail the relevant information from one of the simulations undertaken. By tracing potential faults in the application of the simulation technique undertaken, discuss what these could be and how improvements could be made to improve the model and simulation.
