3.00 Credits
Presents the thermodynamic principles of heat, work, non-flow and steady flow processes, and thermodynamic cycles. Stresses the fundamental principle of energy conversion and the use of thermodynamic data tables and charts. Three hours of lecture / two hours of laboratory. Prerequisite: MEC* 104. Corequisite: MAT* 187.
-
2.00 Credits
Covers the principles involved in the analysis of stresses in machine and structural elements under various types of loads. Analyzes these stresses in thin-walled cylinders and spheres, riveted and welded joints, beams, columns, cast sections, couplings, and shafts. The laboratory portion investigates material strength and the intelligent use of existing references. In the lab, students work in small groups to conduct their own measurements of the mechanical properties of common materials. Uses microcomputers to analyze experimental data and prepare final reports. Two hours of lecture / three hours of laboratory. Prerequisite: MEC* 104. Corequisite: MAT* 175.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces the internal structure of metallic, polymeric, and ceramic solids and their physical, mechanical, electrical, and chemical properties in engineering applications. The laboratory portion investigates the reactions that take place in materials subjected to a variety of tests. Introduces students to ASTM standards and procedures. Three hours of lecture / two hours of laboratory. Corequisite: PHY* 121.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces fluid mechanics, basic fluid characteristics, hydrostatics, pressure, center of pressure, and pressure measuring devices. Demonstrates the application of the general energy equation to fluid in motion. Also demonstrates the modifications necessary to analyze the effect of viscosity and friction of fluid flow, pressure heads, and pumping calculation. Three hours of lecture / two hours of laboratory. Prerequisite: MEC* 104. Corequisite: MAT* 187.
-
3.00 Credits
Presents the concept of Mechanical Design, from concept to specifications. Covers the procedures, data, and techniques necessary to design such mechanical components as gears, springs, bearings, belt and chain drives, clutches, brakes, fasteners, shafts, and screws. Emphasizes the use of computers in the design process. The laboratory portion combines all previous study dealing with machine elements.
