2. Final Year Project (FYP) A final year project (FYP) is the confluence ( سنگم ) of mechanical engineering program. Undertaking a FYP is a compulsory requirement . The FYP is spanned over two consecutive semesters, i.e. semester 7 & 8, totaling 6-credit hours . The FYP can either be proposed by advisors, a group of students, or an industry/sponsor.

3. Final Year Project (FYP) Each FYP should be undertaken by a group of 3 students. Not more than 3. Each FYP should be supervised by a group of 1-2 faculty members. The tasks of each student must be well-defined at the beginning of the FYP. The FYP duration is two consecutive semester of 15 weeks each. All project work should not be done in isolation by individual students; team efforts are encouraged where appropriate.

4. Final Year Project (FYP) The main aim of the FYP is to provide students with an opportunity to practically apply concepts, rules, methods and techniques learned in their undergraduate education to a real world mechanical engineering project. FYP shall include complex engineering problems and design systems, components or processes integrating core areas and meeting specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations. The FYP must satisfy the OBE requirements .

5. FYP OBE Minimum Requirements FYP must involve the solution of complex engineering problem . A problem which can be broken up into several non-trivial sub-problems . It should integrate the knowledge of several learned courses in BS-ME. An FYP based on only one course is not acceptable . An FYP must involve use of at least one engineering software (ANSYS (Fluent, CFX etc.), Creo , CATIA etc.). MS-Excel is not an engineering software. A project of interdisciplinary nature will be encouraged. Student must acquire the skills that will be used for their employment as engineer.

6. Complex Engineering Problem Engineering problems which cannot be resolved without in-depth engineering knowledge , much of which is at, or informed by, the forefront of the professional discipline .

7. Complex Engineering Problem Problems having one or some of these characteristics

9. Title Defence Identify the project objectives: There may be one or more project objectives. The objective(s) should be precise, clear, achievable, and well defined. The list of objectives should be presented in point form. Write a clear technical specification. Identify the equipment and critical resources needed. Decide on the programming language(s) you would use. Identify milestones. Milestones should be clear, concrete, demonstrable achievements. Prepare a project planning schedule. Have periodic meetings with faculty supervisor. You should take the initiative to arrange meetings.

12. Role of Supervisor They will NOT do the project for you. You should solve assigned problem under their guidance. They are NOT expected to spend large amount of their time solving problems that should be solved by you.

13. Amount of effort required It is expected that you spend an average of at least 8 hours /week on the project.

20. Method and Materials Provide sufficient detail to allow the work to reproduced the FYP. Methods already published should be indicated by a reference and only relevant modifications should be described in this case.

21. Results, Discussion and Conclusions Results should be clear and concise. This should explore the significance of the results of the work, not repeat them. A combined Results and Discussion section is often appropriate. Avoid extensive citations and discussion of published literature in this section The main conclusions of the study may be presented in a short Conclusions section, which may stand alone or form a subsection of a Discussion or Results and Discussion section.

22. Future recommendations Based on your results and conclusion, what do you recommend? What are the limitations of your research? What else could be done? What do you recommend for future research based on your findings?

23. Appendices If there is more than one appendix, they should be identified as A, B, etc. Formulae and equations in appendices should be given separate numbering: Eq. (A.1), Eq. (A.2), etc.; in a subsequent appendix, Eq. (B.1) and so on. For tables and figures: Table A.1; Fig. A.1, etc.

24. Acknowledgements List here those individuals who provided help during the research (e.g., providing language help, writing assistance or proof reading the article, etc.)

25. Overall layout of FYP

26. Units and Maths Formulae Follow internationally accepted rules and conventions: use the international system of units (SI). If other units are mentioned, please give their equivalent in SI. Present simple formula in the line of normal text where possible and use the solidus (/) instead of a horizontal line for small fractional terms, e.g., X/Y. In principle, variables are to be presented in italics. Powers of e are often more conveniently denoted by exp. Number consecutively any equations that have to be displayed separately from the text

27. Foot Note Footnotes should be used sparingly (using very little). Number them consecutively throughout the article. Do not include footnotes in the Reference list. Table footnotes indicate each footnote in a table with a superscript lowercase letter.

28. Art Work Make sure you use uniform lettering and sizing of your original artwork. Preferred fonts: Arial (or Helvetica), Times New Roman (or Times) Number the illustrations according to their sequence in the text. Use a logical naming convention for your artwork files Font Size 12

29. Graphics EPS (or PDF): Vector drawings. Embed the font or save the text as 'graphics'. TIFF (or JPG): Color or grayscale photographs (halftones): always use a minimum of 300 dpi. TIFF (or JPG): Bitmapped line drawings: use a minimum of 1000 dpi. TIFF (or JPG): Combinations bitmapped line/half-tone (color or grayscale): a minimum of 500 dpi is required.

30. Figure captions and Table graphics Ensure that each illustration has a caption. A caption should comprise a brief title (not on the figure itself) and a description of the illustration. Keep text in the illustrations themselves to a minimum but explain all symbols and abbreviations used. Number tables consecutively in accordance with their appearance in the text. Place footnotes to tables. Below the table body and indicate them with superscript lowercase letters. Avoid vertical rules. Be sparing in the use of tables and ensure that the data presented in tables do not duplicate results described elsewhere in the article.

31. References Ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference list (and vice versa). Reference Formatting (author(s) name(s), journal title/book title, chapter title/article title, year of publication, volume number/ book chapter and the pagination must be present) Text: Indicate references by number(s) in square brackets in line with the text. Example: '..... as demonstrated [3,6]. Barnaby and Jones [8] obtained a different result ....' List: Number the references (numbers in square brackets) in the list in the order in which they appear in the text.

40. Point To Be Noted While proposing projects for your batch please keep these requirements in mind. Projects involving "studies", "reviews" etc are not encouraged . Projects with a narrow focus are also not desirable . ( This is a major difference between an undergraduate project and a graduate project ). Also please review the FYP CLOs and ensure that your project does cover all of them.
