Test. Asynchronous motor. At least two short theoretical questions and at least one asynchronous motor calculation task. At least half of the maximum score must be for the positive evaluation.
Part time extramural studies:
All topics specified for full time studies are accomplished, but the number of contact hours is one half of the number specified in the calendar
Requirements for awarding credit points
Written theory test. The student is admitted to the test only if the laboratory works have been developed and passed in time and the independent work has been positively evaluated. At least half of the maximum possible score must be obtained.The exam consists of three questions:
1. The question about EM theory;
2. The question about practical work (EM calculation);
3. The question about laboratory work.
Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work
The student prepares a 15-20 pages e-report or oral presentation on a freely chosen theme in an area of EM including control schemes, diagrams and examples of engineering-technical solutions and calculations. At least half of the maximum score must be for the positive evaluation.
Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes
The positive evaluation of the study course exam consists of the sum of points obtained for each answer of the examination question:
- Full comprehensive, broad answer: 3 points
- Correct answer with minor flaws or errors: 2 points
- Answer that contains only basic concepts without explanation or contains significant errors: 1 point
- There are no answers, the answer is false, and the answer is very gross material errors: 0 point.
At least half of the maximum score must be for the positive evaluation.
