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.
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
