subject – wise with a maximum of 100 marks for theory and 75 marks for
practical subject. In addition, Industry oriented mini-project, seminar and
project work shall be evaluated for 50,50 and 200 marks respectively.
ii. For theory subjects the distribution shall be 25 marks for Internal

carriers 3 marks each.
o Part-B consists of five questions (numbered from 2 to 6) carrying
10 marks each. Each of these questions is from one unit and may
contain sub-questions. For each question there will be an “either’
“or” choice (that means there will be two questions from each unit
and the student should answer any one question)
iv. For practical subjects there shall be a continuous evaluation during the
semester for 25 sessional marks and 50 end examination marks. Out of the
25 marks for internal, day-to-day work in the laboratory shall be evaluated

COURSE OVERVIEW:

To provide a basic understanding of the wide range of activities encompassed by


personnel working in standards and calibration laboratories. It covers the measurement
process, types and correct use of measurement and test equipment, and measurement
standards. It provides an opportunity for students to learn about measurement
uncertainty and risk analysis. The course includes the procedures necessary to set up
and to have knowledge on calibration.

At the end of this subject the student is expected:


It is expected to enforce, validate and verify predefined standards for traceability,
accuracy, reliability, and precision. All of these are factors that would affect the validity
of measurement. Although these standards vary widely, these are mandated by the
government, the agencies, and some treaties. Consequently, these standards are verified
and tested against a recognized quality system in calibration laboratories

12.0 INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL SYSTEMS(57025)


12.1 COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Course Name : INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL SYSTEMS


Course Code : 57025
Class : IV B. Tech I Semester
Branch : Mechanical Engineering
Year : 2015 – 2016

Mr. D. Prakash, Assistant Professor


Course Faculty : Mr.S.Phaneendra, Assistant Professor

COURSE OVERVIEW:
Presentation of fundamental measurement concepts and methodologies including the
control system concepts and the instrumentation loop drawing, principles of pressure, level,
temperature, calibration, deviation, errors. Basic principles of open and close loop control
system, controllers, benefits, block diagrams, types of control, and dynamic response
criteria of good control system, process stability, and response to disturbances.

This course covers the terminology, concepts, principles and computations used by
engineers and technicians to specify, analysis and maintain instrumentation and control
systems. It emphasizes practices in industry concepts, so that students learn what aspects of
plant design and control are critical. Practical examples have been used for many common
pressure, level, temperature and flow measuring systems. Approaches are presented for
measurement selection, process/modification, and control structure design.

COURSE OVERVIEW:
Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation,
and application of robot as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback,
and information processing. These technologies deal with automated machines that can
take the place of humans in dangerous environments or manufacturing processes, or
resemble humans in appearance, behavior, and/or cognition. Many of today's robots are
inspired by nature contributing to the field of bio-inspired robotics.

COURSE OVERVIEW:

The objective of this course is to introduce the student to mole advanced topics in
the machining processes. The concept of material removal by an edged tool, involving
plastic deformation and formation of chips, has been known to man for several hundred
years.

In recent years on increasing demand for the machining of components of


complex shape made hard, difficult - to - machine materials with exacting tolerances ad
surface finish has resulted in the development of a number of new machining processes.

The subject includes, the study of modern machining processes like ultrasonic
machining, electro chemical machining, electric discharge machining, electron beam
machining, laser beam machining & plasma for machining. All there machining
processes are used for the machining of complex shapes made hard difficult to machine
materials.
