Simulation computer modelling in the training of students majored in agri-engineering

The paper describes the experience of teaching a course of computer simulation of undergraduates and postgraduates in the field of Agri-engineering in Krasnoyarsk State Agrarian University. Besides, the paper presents an approach to the improvement of farm machinery using simulation models. It also considers the examples of computational experiments, which were carried out to optimize the design parameters of farm machinery elements using vibration while working with granular materials.
