L2 - Electronics, Electrical Energy, Automation (EEA)

Provide students with a working knowledge of the C language in an approach combining low-level aspects (hardware) and abstraction (operating system), based on basic knowledge of another high-level computer language (imperative programming), typically python.

The first-semester course reviews the grammar essential for oral and written communication(tenses and aspect, asking questions, comparisons and superlatives, passive voice) as well as essential general vocabulary(numbers, measurements, shapes); it also includes an introduction to technical vocabulary(basic building materials, plane engine, bike parts, electronic device) through themed lessons and videos in the field of mechanical engineering.

Finally, numerous activities are offered to promote oral expression skills (presentation vocabulary, simulations, role-playing and board games), so that students are able to describe the specific features, functions and uses of a piece of technical equipment of their choice in an oral presentation by groups of two.

Grammatical aspects are limited to a review of modal auxiliaries.

The vocabulary is much more focused on the various elements involved in the design and operation of different types of heat engines, and on emerging technologies(drones, driverless vehicles, 3D-printing).

Students are also expected to produce a CV in English and practice writing emails in a formal style, so as to be prepared for internship or job-seeking situations where fluency in English will either be necessary or an additional skill.

The practice of expression is always the main objective, with an individual oral presentation at the end of the semester of their second-year project in mechanics.

The aim of this course is to enable students to acquire or consolidate language skills that will be indispensable in their professional lives. Today, English is the language of international communication in the scientific and technical world, both for scientific publications and for conferences and meetings between professionals.

The aim of this tutored project is to synthesize previously acquired knowledge, but also to force the student to work on new knowledge. At present, the project concerns the construction of a meteorological acquisition station. This involves the installation of various sensors measuring characteristic physical quantities such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, pressure, illumination and pollution. These sensors generate an electrical signal that synthesizes the information to be conveyed. The information is selected and coded. It is then transmitted by fiber optic or wireless means until it is decoded and formatted for display.

The two most common aspects of digital electronics:

  - Combinatorial logic and logic gates: Combinatorial and sequential aspects (flip-flops, counters, frequency dividers, registers).

 - Microcontroller programming. Implementation of the usual functionalities in C language (learned in the first semester): bus communication, sensor and actuator interfacing, and time-sharing management.
