Faculty and research in Engineering Design

The Department of Machine Design coordinates the programme and supplies a majority of the courses. The research at the department is largely directed towards supporting the transition to a more sustainable society. The unit in the department which is responsible for this master programme is the Systems and Component Design unit.

Department of Machine Design

Systems and Component Design

In the Systems and Component Design unit the research focuses on essential areas for future green transports such as; Ecodesign, the development of new components for robust and durable wave energy harvesting, components and lubricants for drivelines for electric vehicles and reduction of particle emissions from vehicles and transport systems. Each of these areas is led by a professor;

Machine Elements

Research in lubricants for electric drivelines

Tribology

Research in tribology, friction and particle emissions

Machine Design

Ecodesign
