-
0.00 Credits
Studies the fundamental concepts of the mechanics of materials, including stress, strain, and deformation due to tensile and compressive forces, torsion, bending moments, transverse shear, and temperature changes. It also studies statically indeterminate problems, power transmission, stress concentration factor, beam design, columns, and buckling. The laboratory demonstrates the above concepts. Prerequisite: EN-2211; Corequisite: SM-2214 STCW: None
-
2.00 Credits
This laboratory reinforces the basic concepts of normal stress, shear stress, torsion, beam bending and defl ection, and beam design as taught in the Strength of Materials course. Formal engineering reports are required with emphasis on writing and spreadsheet skills. Corequisite: EN-3112 STCW: None
-
1.50 Credits
Covers the design, construction, and operation of steam generators (boilers). It also considers fuels and their combustion, combustion equipment, combustion control, feedwater regulators, air heaters, economizers, superheaters, reheaters, boiler water treatment, and auxiliary boilers. A laboratory aboard the Academy's training ship is included, emphasizing boiler external fi ttings, safety valves, fuel oil systems, and main and auxiliary steam systems. Prerequisite: None STCW: Practical
-
0.00 Credits
Covers the application of the basic laws of thermodynamics to open and closed systems including refrigeration, air conditioning, and various power cycles with special emphasis on the steam power cycle. Prerequisite: SM-3125 STCW: None
-
0.00 Credits
Theory of basic solid-state electron devices. Power circuits. Use of analog and digital integrated circuits in control systems for logic, interlocks, and automated machinery control. Laboratory component includes analog and digital circuits. Prerequisite: SM-2224 STCW: None
-
2.00 Credits
This laboratory supports the Electronics course (EN-3212). Participants learn to use electronic instruments by taking measurements on analog and digital circuits constructed during the lab period. The measurements are then used to verify the analytical relationships developed in the classroom. Corequisite: EN-3212 STCW: None
-
1.00 Credits
An in-depth study of refrigeration, air conditioning, domestic heating and lighting; and the design, operation, maintenance, and repair of environmental control systems. Prerequisite: SM-3125 STCW: Practical
-
6.00 Credits
The co-op experience requires a student to work a minimum of six weeks, during the summer or winter session, in industry for academic credit. The student will be exposed to "real life" experiences through these co-ops.He/she will gain fi rsthand knowledge of practices and technology presently being used today by the facilities professional. The co-op requires a technical report to be submitted at the conclusion of the experience. Also required is an evaluation by the supervisor. Prerequisite: Junior standing STCW: None
-
6.00 Credits
Provides an opportunity for cadets to obtain sea service and engineering watchstanding experience in a structured shipboard training program which is compliant with Chapter III of STCW and the requirements of 46 CFR. The training uses a building-block approach bringing the cadet up to an acceptable level of profi ciency in each area of required competence. Shipboard training is closely integrated with the shore-based academic curriculum at the Academy which includes a range of simulation and practical laboratory experiences. All phases of training are conducted by STCW Qualifi ed Instructors and Designated Examiners. Prerequisite: EN-2231 STCW: None
-
6.00 Credits
Replaces Sea Term III or Sea Term IV. Qualifi ed cadets are afforded opportunity to train aboard a commercially-operated vessel in an engineering capacity for a maximum of sixty days in lieu of sailing aboard the Academy training ship. The student must have had junior status during the previous academic term. Prerequisite: SM-2224 STCW: None
