Abstract
The trend towards active learning is increasingly apparent in modern engineering curricula. It may take several forms such as a problem, project-based learning, or reverse engineering (RE). The principle of RE is to work via the reverse approach of a typical design process, starting from a finished product and moving backwards through its design sequence. RE can be applied to software as well as hardware products; its objectives are to investigate specifications, cost, operation, manufacturing, reliability, function, … This paper will present a case of reverse engineering in a mechanical design curriculum.
