Equipment Design: Mechanical Aspects

This is a well structured course about the subject of equipment mechanical design. It starts with the basics and advance towards more detailed aspects of design. The main parts of a process equipment were studied, along with the design procedures of each. However, this is an ample subject, which comprises a lot of other information not given in this course, and also necessary to be considered during the design of a process equipment, but for an introduction, is a very good course. Indian code is used, so, if you work in the western hemisphere, like I do, some ASME code revision on your own should be done, because there is no reference to the formulas and procedures of this code whatsoever in the course, but the important thing is that the theory is the same, no matter the code used, and the procedures and formulas of the Indian Code are very similar to ASME´s (some tables and graphics are even the same). The instructor does a very good job. She´s very clear, friendly and presents the material in a way easy to understand.
