-
3.00 Credits
The development of rotating-wing aircraft and the helicopter. Hovering theory and vertical flight performance analysis. Auto-rotation, physical concepts of blade motion and control, aerodynamics and performance of forward flight. Blade stall, stability, and vibration problems. Design problems. Prerequisites: AE 302, MA 441.
-
3.00 Credits
A review of spacecraft equations of motion and state variable representation of the equations of motion. Automatic control theory, the classical approach as well as the modern control approach. Attitude control with throughsters, attitude control with reaction wheels, and attitude stabilization with spin. Attitude control during throughst maneuvers. Control of translational motion. Prerequisite: MA 345. Corequisite: AE 426.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is concerned with the preliminary design, subject to specifications, of an air-breathing engine for aircraft propulsion. A complete engine is designed and presented with proposed engine layout, cycle calculations, installed performance, and engine sizing information. Calculations demonstrating that the proposed engine satisfies requirements are also presented. Corequisite: AE 408 or permission of the instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is concerned with the design of the various components of an air-breathing engine, starting with the general layout. The students are grouped into teams and each team is charged with the design of a major component (inlet, fan, compressor, combustor, turbine, nozzle, support systems). The components are then integrated to verify that they function together. Prerequisite: AE 435 or permission of the instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
Principles of spacecraft detail and subsystem design, analysis, modeling, manufacture, and test are covered and incorporated into projects to give actual experience in the detail design and integration of spacecraft subsystems and systems. Integration of multiple subsystems into a single functional model is a key component of the course. Prerequisites: AE 304, AE 426, AE 427, AE 430, or consent of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
A technical study of airborne pulse systems to include distance-measuring equipment and secondary radar to include their operation and support. Prerequisites: EL 301, EL 303, and EL 307. Corequisite: AEL 313.
-
3.00 Credits
(3,0) 3 Credits A technical study of communications and navigation systems to include their operation and support. Prerequisites: EL 301, EL 303, and EL 307. Corequisite: AEL 313.
-
0.00 - 6.00 Credits
2 Credits A practical application of theory to the test, evaluation, and support of airborne electronics systems. Prerequisites: EL 301, EL 303, and EL 307. Corequisites: AEL 311 and AEL 312.
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
3 Credits An intensive study of linear electronic circuits and signals using practical, theoretical, and mathematical approaches. Topics include time and frequency domain analysis of discrete and continuous time systems, and the use of the Fourier, Laplace, and Z-transforms to analyze and design these systems for communications and aerospace electronics applications. Prerequisites: EL 307, MA 245, and PS 250.
-
2.00 - 3.00 Credits
3 Credits This course is intended to familiarize the student with various theoretical and empirical design procedures including CAD/CAE to translate these designs into laboratory breadboard hardware and to observe and practice acceptable laboratory investigative procedures. The student will be required to provide and use an engineering laboratory notebook throughout this course. Project documentation will include a final, scholarly, written engineering report. Prerequisite: EL 307. Corequisite: AEL 315.
