Abstract
Development of a Modular Didactic Laboratory Set for the Experimental Study of Friction
Highlights
The role of laboratory exercises in engineering education is to confirm theoretical knowledge, design and conduct experiments, analyse measurement results, and improve skills in equipment handling
The paper presents the results related to the development of a modular didactic laboratory set for the experimental study of friction and its implementation in engineering education
A newly developed module is presented for investigating the kinetic coefficient of friction based on the differential equation of motion on an inclined plane
Summary
The role of laboratory exercises in engineering education is to confirm theoretical knowledge, design and conduct experiments, analyse measurement results, and improve skills in equipment handling. Validate, refine, and upgrade those sets over time, developing them from educational tools to equipment that is successfully implemented in laboratory exercises and scientific research. The examples are: a vibroplatform model [7], a device for determining elastic modulus by bending [8], a high-stiffness tool for ball burnishing [9], a novel modular fixture for a flexible manufacturing system [10], small laboratory tensile testing device [11], tribometer for experimental determination of the kinetic friction coefficient [12].Work on designing the educational and research devices generated the idea of developing didactic sets based on a modular principle
