Theory and practice in the analysis and measurement of sound and vibration as applied to noise control. Basic concepts of vibration and acoustic theory are developed, and a variety of sound and vibration measuring equipment is used in laboratory experiments. Practical aspects of noise control as applied to products, machinery, buildings, vehicles, and other systems. Topics include sound propagation; sound in small and large enclosures, and design of enclosures, ducts, and mufflers; isolation and damping. Prerequisites: ENGM 330 Fluid Mechanics and ENGM 350 Machine Dynamics and Vibrations.
-
3.00 Credits
Several different vehicle systems (automotive, truck, railway freight vehicles, and passenger transport systems) are described analytically from road/track to passenger/load. Topics include tire/wheel construction and modeling, contact mechanics, suspension design, power transmission, steering mechanisms, braking, vibratory causes/effects, and safety requirements. Vehicle system modeling with ADAMS (ADAMS/Car and ADAMS/Rail) computational dynamic analysis software is introduced. Prerequisite: ENGM 400 Mechanical Engineering Design.
-
3.00 Credits
Fundamental principles of energy engineering with applications to both fossil fuel combustion and alternative energy systems. The first half of the course is dedicated to a quantitative understanding of fossil fuel combustion and its applications. Stoichiometry, flame temperature, chemical kinetics and applications of both premixed and diffusion flames, as well as sources of emissions and emission control strategies are presented. The second half of the course is focused on alternative and renewable energy systems, from a technical, economic, and environmental perspective. Students will study the basic theory of fuel cells, wind turbines, photovoltaic devices, biomass and nuclear energy generation and determine component and system efficiencies. Additionally, students will become familiar with the relationship between ethical issues and the quality of our environment, and the complex interplay between engineering systems and society. This course builds on previous studies in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer. Additional course fee is required. Prerequisites: ENGM 312 Applications of Engineering Thermodynamics and ENGM 380 Heat Transfer.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Supervised experience in the discipline including internships and practica required for professional programs. This advanced experience must have an on-site supervisor and/or a departmental instructor overseeing, designing, and evaluating the content of the course. Prerequisite: instructor's permission.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers various aspects of control system engineering including dynamic system modeling, control system stability and performance analysis. Special attention is given to compensator design by PID and lead-lag algorithms. Principles of closed loop mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and thermodynamic systems are considered. Laboratory experiments include both MATLAB simulations and PLC programming with applications. Two lectures and one laboratory per week. Additional course fee is required. Prerequisite: MATH 310 Differential Equations with Linear Algebra.
-
2.00 - 4.00 Credits
Occasional special courses chosen to fit the interests and needs of engineering students and faculty. Additional course fee is required.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to the concepts and methods of engineering problem solving and design. Topics include the following: analysis and design methodologies, structured computer programming, basic principles of engineering graphics, the visualization and modeling of real-world systems, and an introduction to the history and ethics of the engineering profession. Computer-aided-design (CAD) tools, solid modeling and simulation software, and mathematics software applications are presented. Students work on numerous team design projects, communicating their results through oral and written reports. Meets twice weekly in a lecture/lab environment. Additional course fee is required. Prerequisite: MATH 190 Precalculus Mathematics or equivalent.
