4.00 Credits
This subject includes a study of the fundamental laws governing the transfer of heat by conduction, convection and radiation, in both steady and unsteady state. It will also cover extended surfaces and heat exchangers. Analytical, numerical and graphical solutions will be presented. Prerequisite: MECH255 Thermodynamics, or equivalent, and MECH270 Fluid Mechanics. Corequisite: MATH620 Applied Differential Equations I or equivalent. Day Course.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to methods of statistics is presented for the dimensioning and evaluation of tolerance and clearances. Failure theories, deformation criteria and fatigue are considered. Deflection and stiffness are investigated concentrating on the methods of superposition and integration. Prerequisite: MECH375 Machine Design I. Day Course.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed to allow the student to become familiar with and use CAD systems to their full advantage. It will allow for the development and use of advanced and custom features of AutoCAD. Topics included will be AutoLISP programming, customization of menus, and attribute definitions and their use. The use of data base management and control will also be covered. Prerequisite: MECH143 Computer-Aided Design or equivalent. ACPE Course.
-
4.00 Credits
This course intends to draw upon the student's knowledge of engineering graphics to employ industry-standard computer-aided design software such as AutoCAD to generate various engineering drawings. Customization of menus, data base management and control, and 3-D solid modeling techniques will be explored. Rotation, scaling, translation and part specification methods will also be investigated. Prerequisite: ELMC110 Engineering Graphics. ACPE Course.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces classical control theory. The Laplace transform will be used in analyzing and designing mechanical, electromechanical and thermodynamic systems. Transient and steady state response and system stability will be investigated with the aid of root locus diagrams and Bode plots. Prerequisite: MATH620 Applied Differential Equations I. Day Course.
-
4.00 Credits
This is an introductory course into the structure and properties of materials. Subjects include the processing of materials, crystal structure, miller indices, composition, alloying, electrical properties, phase diagram, corrosion, diffusion, heat treating, inspection and testing of materials utilized in the electromechanical field. The laboratory activities will reinforce the classroom theory. Prerequisite: Junior status; MECH302 Mechanics of Materials. Day Course.
-
4.00 Credits
This course covers the complete planning of an engineering experiment, from formulating the objectives, searching the literature, and preparing the procedure, through instrument selection, data acquisition and recording, to the analytical methods, error assessment, and presentation of results. Model scaling, environmental control, and cost, schedule and workforce requirements are considered. Prerequisites: MECH190 Mechanics and Strength of Materials; MECH240 Thermodynamics and MECH480 Engineering CAD. Corequisite: MECH568 Engineering Fluid Mechanics. ACPE Course.
-
4.00 Credits
Thermodynamics properties, work and heat interaction are defined. The First and Second laws of thermodynamics are introduced. Conservation of mass and energy and the entropy and the exergy balance relations are applied in analyzing thermodynamic systems. Alternative energy sources and fuel cells are discussed. Psychrometric applications in the air conditioning processes are covered. Laboratory experiences reinforce the classroom theory. Prerequisites: Junior status; MATH290 Calculus II; PHYS320 Engineering Physics II. Day Course.
-
3.00 Credits
This course considers how structure, mechanical working and heat treatment of materials affect their mechanical and environmental behavior. Microstructural analysis will be used to correlate structural and physical properties. Ferrous and nonferrous metals and plastics are covered. Theory is correlated by pertinent laboratory experimentation for which oral and written technical reports are required. Reinforced materials such as fiberglass are also studied. Prerequisite: CHEM360 Chemistry I. Day Course.
-
4.00 Credits
This course investigates the structure and properties of ferrous and nonferrous metals, ceramics, composites and plastics. Various testing procedures for materials will be explored in the laboratory to correlate structural and physical properties with mechan-ical behavior. Additional topics include microstructural analysis, heat treatment, materials processing and engineering design applications. Prerequisite: CHEM110 Chemistry A. ACPE Course.
