-
3.00 Credits
One hour lecture and five hours of lab per week. Focus of the lecture is on engineering project management, including communication, collaboration, project tracking methods, cost estimating, overhead, direct labor, time value of money, depreciation and return on community based sponsors. Detailed evaluation of the Product Realization Process focusing on conceptual design, embodiment design, final design and prototyping. Analysis of the design criteria for safety, ergonomics, environment, cost and sociological impact. Periodic oral and status reports. Culminates in a comprehensive written report and oral presentation. Prerequisite(s): MEE 425 or 427.
-
1.00 Credits
Introduces students and teams to project management, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Topics include project management,cost estimating, time value of money, patent law, marketing, finance, and business plan development.
-
3.00 Credits
Emphasis on the integration of sensors, micro-controllers, electromechanical actuators, and control theory in a 'smart' system for a semester long design project. Topics include: sensor signal processing, electromechanical actuator fundamentals, interfacing of sensors and actuators to micro-controllers, digital logic, and programming of micro-controllers, programmable logic controllers and programmable logic devices. Equal mix of lecture and laboratory. Prerequisite(s): ECE 323.
-
3.00 Credits
Ground, air, water, and space vehicles. Development of force, moment, and kinematic equations. Advanced applications including stability, control, and performance evaluations. Vehicle simulation. Analog computation. Prerequisite(s): MEE 308 or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Overview of industrial robots; physical configuration, operation, and programming of robots; actuators, drive mechanisms, sensors, vision systems, controls, and control methods for robots; economic considerations; and automated factory concept. Prerequisite(s): MEE 321.
-
4.00 Credits
Dynamic systems modeling with special emphasis on mechanical systems (one and two degrees of freedom). Covers both transfer function and state space modeling techniques. Analogues drawn between mechanical, electrical, fluid, and thermal physical domains. System nonlinearities and model linearization methods are discussed. Analytical solutions of linear ordinary differential equations using Laplace transformation and state space theory. Feedback control theory, including root locus and frequency response techniques. Prerequisite(s): EGM 202; MTH 219.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is intended to introduce the student to the flight mechanics of aerospace vehicles. Some familiarity with aircraft performance, static stability and control is assumed, but not required. We will use modern analysis methods to develop the topical details including: 1) a study of aerodynamics involved in-flight vehicle motion to obtain an understanding of influence coefficients; 2) use of linear algebra to develop a rational approach to modeling aircraft dynamics; 3) an introduction to modern control theory methodology; and 4) problems and examples that illustrate the use of desktop computational tools currently available. Prerequisite(s): (EGM 202; MEE 401, 225; MTH 219) or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Case study approach to engineering problem solving. Emphasis on breaking down problems to tractable parts, modeling physical systems and selection of solution techniques. Problems related to thermal, fluid, structural, and dynamic systems. Problems typically involve solution of ordinary and partial differential equations, Fourier analysis of periodic behavior, simulation, optimization and/or statistical analysis. Analytical and numerical solution techniques, with an emphasis on selecting the most appropriate technique and understanding the limitations of the analysis. Prerequisite(s): MEE 410.
-
3.00 Credits
This course integrates thermodynamics, heat transfer, engineering economics, and simulation and optimization techniques in a design framework. Topics include design methodology, energy analysis, heat exchanger networks, thermal-system simulation and optimization techniques.
-
3.00 Credits
Emphasis on design for environment over the life cycle of a product or process, including consideration of the mining, processing, manufacturing, use, and post-life stages. Course provides knowledge and experience in invention for the purpose of clean design, life cycle assessment strategies to estimate the environmental impact of products and processes, and cleaner manufacturing practices. Course includes a major design project.
