Prerequisite(s): Sophomore standing in engineering. Corequisite(s): MEAM 210 (Fall) and MEAM 203 and 211 (Spring) are strongly recommended. This is a sophomore level laboratory course that students will complete over the fall and spring semesters. The course teaches the principles of experimentation and measurement systems as well as design. The fall semester follows closely with MEAM 210, doing experiments to explore the principles taught in statics and strength of materials. The spring semester follows closely with MEAM 203 and MEAM 211 with project based design projects in thermodynamics and dynamics.

Prerequisite(s): MEAM 203, 302, MATH 241. Corequisite(s): MEAM 333. The objective of the course is to teach the principles of design, with emphasis on components and systems involving the flow of fluids, heat and mass transfer, air conditioning and refrigeration, energy conversion, power generation, and propulsion. The topics covered include introduction to engineering design, economics, modeling, creativity, thermal/fluid equipment and components, reliability, liability, saftey, optimization, and materialization of the design as a market product. At least one team design, construction, and testing project is included.

Prerequisite(s): MATH 241 and MEAM 211. This course teaches the fundamental concepts underlying the dynamics of vibrations for single-degree of freedom, multi-degree and infinite-degree of freedom mechanical systems. The course will focus on Newton's Force Methods, Virtual-Work Methods, and Lagrange's Variation Methods for analyzing problems in vibrations. Students will learn how to anlayze transient, steady state and forced motion of single and multi-degree of freedom linear and non-linear systems. The course teaches analytical solution techniques for linear systems and practical numerical and simulation methods for analysis and design of nonlinear systems.

3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): MATH 241 and MEAM 302. This course is a required course for all MEAM undergraduates. It covers fundamentals of heat and mass transfer and applications to practical problems in energy conversion and conservation. Emphasis will be on developing a physical and analytical understanding of conductive, convective, and radiative heat transfer, as well as design of heat exchangers and heat transfer with phase change. Topics covered will include: types of heat transfer processes, their relative importance, and the interactions between them, solutions of steady state and transient state conduction, emission and absorption of radiation by real surfaces and radiative transfer between surfaces, heat transfer by forced and natural convection owing to flow around bodies and through ducts, analytical solutions for some sample cases and applications of correlations for engineering problems. Students will develop an ability to apply governing principles and physical intuition to solve problems.

3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): MEAM 203 or CBE 231. To introduce students to advanced classical equilibrium thermodynamics based on Callen's postulatory approach, to exergy (Second-Law) analysis, and to fundamentals of statistical and nonequilibrium thermodynamics. Applications to be discussed include advanced power and aerospace propulsion cycles, fuel cells, combustion, diffusion, transport in membranes, materials properties, superconductivity, elasticity, and biological processes.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): Junior standing in engineering. This is a junior level laboratory course. The course teaches the principles of design and measurement systems including basic electromechanical systems. It follows MEAM 302 and MEAM 321 including experiments in fluid mechanics, and vibration in the design of mechanical systems.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): Junior standing in engineering. This course is a junior lab which follows MEAM 333 Heat Transfer and MEAM 354 Mechanics of Materials with design projects based on those topics. In the broader context of design/independent skill development, this course also introduces open ended topics, wider design options, and introduces project planning and management.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): MEAM 210 or equivalent, BE200 or permission of instructor. This course builds on the fundamentals of solid mechanics taught in MEAM 210 and addresses more advanced problems in strength of materials. The students will be exposed to a wide array of applications from traditional engineering disciplines as well as emerging areas such as biotechnology and nanotechnology. The methods of analysis developed in this course will form the cornerstone of machine design and also more advanced topics in the mechanics of materials.
