When the student finishes the lectures he or she should be able to:
¿ R1. Understand and use the fundamental principles of Mechanics and Thermodynamics in the analysis and solution of problems related with subjects of upcoming courses.
¿ R2. Identify and evaluate those physical aspects related with Mechanics and Thermodynamics in problems and activities in the engineering context.
¿ R3. Use and relate the different measurement units of the main physical magnitudes of Mechanics and Thermodynamics.
¿ R4. Use the appropriate instruments for the determination of relevant physical parameters in Mechanics and Thermodynamics.
¿ R5. Acquire the experimental skills to test physical laws and to determine physical parameters.
¿ R6. Conveniently document the measuring process regarding its basic principles, instrumentation and limits of applicability. .

Ordinary evaluation.
For the ordinary evaluation of this matter, three different facets will be considered: (i) continuous evaluation, (ii) work done in the Laboratory Sessions and (iii) final written exam. The marks of these three tasks will be weighted according to the table below.
The Laboratory Sessions are mandatory and their marks cannot be compensated in the Make up exam.
Learning outcomes | Evaluation | Weight (%) | Make up exam |
R1, R2, R3 | Continuous Evaluation | 30 | Yes |
R1, R2, R3 | Final Written exam. | 55 | Yes |
R4, R5, R6 | Laboratory Sessions | 15 | No |
Make up Exam.
The make up exam will consist of a single written exam of all the contents of this matter.
The mark from this make up exam will be 85% of the final mark of this matter.
The remaining 15% will correspond to the marks obtained in the work previously done in the Laboratory Sessions.
