Catapult Challenge: Mastering Mechanics with Medieval Machines

inPhysics

Background

Dive into the mechanics of motion with the “Catapult Challenge,” where students use physics and engineering principles to design and simulate virtual catapults. This project combines concepts of projectile motion and energy transfer, allowing students to creatively and competitively apply these principles

Learning Outcome (LO)

  • LO #1: Gain a deeper understanding of projectile motion, energy transfer, and mechanical design through hands-on application.
  • LO #2: Engage in the engineering design process, from conceptualization to testing and refinement, fostering problem-solving skills and creativity.

What is on offer?

  • 1-on-1 sessions with Ph.D. Scholars
  • Supervision and Guidance from Global Faculty
  • Assistance in Publishing Research
