-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
1 to 3 credits. Prerequisite: Permission of instructor. Student should have obtained permission of an instructor in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science prior to registering for this course. Directed independent study of a topic or field of special interest. This may involve readings, research, laboratory or fieldwork, and preparation of papers, as agreed to in advance, by student and instructor. May be repeated to a total of six credit hours.
-
6.00 Credits
1 to 3 credits. Lecture course or seminar on a topic or field of special interest, as determined by the instructor. May be repeated to a total of six credit hours.
-
2.00 Credits
(1-1) 2 credits. An introductory course for incoming mechanical engineering freshmen which will introduce the student to the profession they have chosen. Topics to be covered include: Solid modeling, CAD lab, professional development, engineering design, technical communication, personal development, and academic success skills.
-
3.00 Credits
(3-0) 3 credits. Prerequisites: MATH 125 and PHYS 211. An introduction to the basic concepts of energy conversion, including the first and second laws of thermodynamics, energy and entropy, work and heat, thermodynamic systems analysis, and the concepts of properties and state. Application of these fundamentals to energy conversion systems will be presented.
-
3.00 Credits
(3-0) 3 credits. Prerequisite: EM 214. This course covers the fundamental concepts of solid mechanics including the definition of stress, transformations and states of stress; plane stress, plane strain, octahedral stresses, three dimensional stresses, and principal stresses in two and three dimensions. Additional topics include strain analysis, strain measurements and rosette analysis, generalized Hooks law, and orthotropic materials. Specific applications are an introduction to composite materials, analysis of thin and thick cylinders, statically indeterminate members, torsional loading of shafts, power transmission and the shaft analysis, torsional loads in noncircular components and thin tubes, stress concentrations, and combined loads.
-
3.00 Credits
(3-0) 3 credits. Prerequisites: PHYS 211, EM 214, MATH 125. Brief review of dynamics of a particle. Kinetics and kinematics of two and three-dimensional mechanisms. Emphasis will include free body diagrams, vector methods, and various coordinate systems. Newton's law and energy methods will both be used.
-
2.00 Credits
(2-0) 2 credits. Prerequisites ME 110, MATH 123 and sophomore standing. The course presents in a detailed fashion useful tools and structured methodologies that support the product development practice. Also, it attempts to develop in the students the necessary skills and attitudes required for successful product development in today's competitive marketplace. The cornerstone is a semester-long project in which small teams of students conceive, plan and design a simple physical product. Each student brings his/her own background to the team effort, and must learn to synthesize his/her perspective with those of the other students in the team to develop a marketable product. An introduction to manufacturing aspects that must be taken into consideration during product development is provided in the context of the project.
-
2.00 Credits
(1-1) 2 credits. Prerequisite: Sophomore standing. This course focuses on the design process including project management and teamwork; formal conceptual design methods; acquiring and processing information; design management tools; design for manufacturability, reliability, maintainability, sustainability; design communication: reports and presentations; ethics in design; prototyping designs; case studies. This course is cross-listed with EE 264/264L.
-
3.00 Credits
(3-0) 3 credits. Prerequisites: ME 211and ME 221. Thermodynamic power cycles using vapors and gases. One-dimensional compressible flow. Energy analysis. Refrigeration cycles. Mistures and psychrometry. Maxwell's relations. Combustion and thermochemistry.
-
3.00 Credits
(2-1) 3 credits. Prerequisites: ME 211 and MATH 373 (concurrent). A study of the transfer of heat by conduction, convection and radiation. Application to thermal systems.
