Materials strength laboratory
The Materials Resistance Laboratory is one of the essential laboratories for conducting experiments on materials resistance for the second stage in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, including examining the yield stress, flexibility, rust resistance, hardness, and other materials to determine the necessary specifications for preparing designs.
Laboratory control and measurements
It is one of the Department of Mechanical Engineering laboratories and is for the fourth stage only. It represents the field for applying some experiments on the subject of automatic control so that students understand and understand the subject of control through practical experiments, which are directly concerned with implementing some of the controls on the systems in the laboratory.
Control systems are those in which the controlling part is used to improve the system’s performance in complex closed systems, where the controlling part works to protect the accuracy, reliability, and timeliness of the system’s results by ensuring early detection of results or measurement errors and procedures for correcting them.
