  • 3.00 Credits

    A combination of analytical and computer methods in the kinematic and kinetic analysis of mechanisms and machines. The analysis and design of cams and gear trains is included. CAE applications and open-ended design projects give students the opportunity to link course topics with real-world machines. Prerequisite: ME 240, 353 Offered: Spring semester Staff
  • 3.00 Credits

    The basic laws of physics and thermodynamics are applied to the study of fluid phenomena. Topics include conservation of mass, momentum, and energy. Basic laws are applied to hydrostatics, external and internal incompressible flow, and fluid machinery. Prerequisite: ME 350 Offered: Spring semester Staff
  • 3.00 Credits

    Design and analysis of mechanical systems considering theories of static failure, material selection, fatigue, finite element analysis, impact loading, and statistics/reliability. Prerequisite: ME 353 Offered: Spring semester Staff
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course provides an introduction to Bioengineering Design. Engineering designs are developed through processes that have a number of stages, beginning with conceptual design and culminating in detailed design. At the heart of this course is the completion of a major coneptual and embodiment design project for a specific client from clinical medicine or the bioengineering industry. Student teams will produce a prototype of their design and document their process with a written report and presentation. Rossmann
  • 3.00 Credits

    An opportunity for selected students to undertake independent study/research projects during the junior and/or senior year. Projects are selected based on the background and interests of the student, and the availability of staff. A proposal is submitted to a faculty member who serves as the adviser, and to the department head for approval. Each student is required to submit a final paper embodying the results of the study/research. This is a Technical Elective. Staff
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course considers recent advances and/or subjects of current interest to students and members of the staff. Topic(s) for a given semester are announced prior to registration. This is a Technical Elective. Staff
  • 3.00 Credits

    A study of the basic phenomena of heat transfer which includes treatment of steady and non-steady state conduction in one and two dimensions, natural and forced convection, and thermal radiation. Prerequisite: ME , 362 Offered: Fall semester Staff
  • 3.00 Credits

    A study of vibrations of mechanical systems that includes the treatment of the free and forced vibrations of lumped mass and continuous systems. The physical behavior of these systems under steady state and transient vibration is investigated. Matrix methods are utilized in the treatment of multi degree-of-freedom systems. Prerequisite: ME 240, 352, 353 Offered: Spring semester This is a Technical Elective. Staff
  • 3.00 Credits

    A capstone course in which students conduct experiments to reinforce the concepts of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer using modern instrumentation and data acquisition systems. Typical experiments include steam power generation, refrigeration, fluid viscosity, wind tunnel measurements, flow meter performance, piping losses, boundary layer measurements, heat transfer by conduction and convection, heat exchanger performance, and internal combustion engine performance. Prerequisite: ME 331, 470 Offered: Spring semester Staff
  • 3.00 Credits

    The application of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and other engineering principles, to the design of interior environmental control systems. Consideration is given to the total energy concept of environmental control in light of present energy concerns. Prerequisite: ME 350, 362. Pre- or corequisite: ME 470 This is a Technical Elective.
