Water supply availability and quality. Theory and design of conventional potable water treatment unit processes. Design of distribution systems. Also includes regulatory analysis under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Prerequisite: EGGN/ESGN353, or consent of instructor. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides an introduction and overview of the engineering aspects of solid and hazardous waste management. The focus is on control technologies for solid wastes from common municipal and industrial sources and the end-of-pipe waste streams and process residuals that are generated in some key industries. Prerequisite: EGGN354. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
A critical examination of the experiments, calculations and assumptions underpinning numerical and narrative standards contained in federal and state environmental regulations. Top-down investigations of the historical development of selected regulatory guidelines and permitting procedures. Student directed design of improved regulations. Prerequisite: EGGN353. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course describes the engineering principles and practices associated with the characterization and remediation of contaminated sites. Methods for site characterization and risk assessment will be highlighted while the emphasis will be on remedial action screening processes and technology principles and conceptual design. Common isolation and containment and in-situ and ex-situ treatment technology will be covered. Computerized decision-support tools will be used and case studies will be presented. Prerequisites: EGGN353, EGGN354 or consent of instructor. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to the use of numerical methods in the solution of problems encountered in engineering analysis and design, e.g. linear simultaneous equations (e.g. analysis of elastic materials, steady heat flow); roots of nonlinear equations (e.g. vibration problems, open channel flow); eigen-value problems (e.g. natural frequencies, buckling and elastic stability); curve fitting and differentiation (e.g. interpretation of experimental data, estimation of gradients); integration (e.g. summation of pressure distributions, finite element properties, local averaging ); ordinary differential equations (e.g. forced vibrations, beam bending) All course participants will receive source code consisting of a suite of numerical methods programs. Prerequisite: CSCI260 or 261, MATH225, EGGN320. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Techniques of subsoil investigation, types of foundations and foundation problems, selection of basis for design of foundation types. Open-ended problem solving and decision making. Prerequisite: EGGN361. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
The focus of this course is on soil mechanics for unsaturated soils. It provides an introduction to thermodynamic potentials in partially saturated soils, chemical potentials of adsorbed water in partially saturated soils, phase properties and relations, stress state variables, measurements of soil water suction, unsaturated flow laws, measurement of unsaturated permeability, volume change theory, effective stress principle, and measurement of volume changes in partially saturated soils. The course is designed for seniors and graduate students in various branches of engineering and geology that are concerned with unsaturated soil's hydrologic and mechanics behavior. Prerequisites: EGGN461 or consent of instructor. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Investigate fundamentals of fuel-cell operation and electrochemistry from a chemical-thermodynamics and materialsscience perspective.
