12	Recommended optional programme components:	Some important points to be considered in the machine theory course are as follows: Mechanism Analysis: It is important to gain the ability to analyse position, velocity and acceleration of mechanisms. Degrees of Freedom: Being able to determine the degrees of freedom of mechanisms plays a critical role in the design and analysis processes. Force Analysis: Understanding how forces are distributed in mechanisms and the effects of these forces is of great importance in engineering solutions. Gear Systems: Learning the working principles and design of gear trains is one of the fundamental topics of machine theory. Vibration and Dynamics: Vibration and dynamic analyses of machines are vital for the reliability and performance of the systems. These topics form the basic building blocks of the machine theory course and a strong knowledge in these areas is necessary to be successful in engineering applications.
