-
3.00 Credits
A critical analysis of the phenomena governing the flow of a compressible fluid; introduction to flow in two and three dimensions; Prandil-Meyer expansions; small perturbations in subsonic and supersonic flows; method of characteristics. Prerequisite: Mech Eng or Aero Eng 331. (Co-listed with Aero Eng 431)
-
3.00 Credits
General theory of stress analysis of shells based on topics in differential geometry and general elasticity theory. Theory is applicable to studies of the elastic behavior of flat plates and shells, buckling and post-duckling behavior of shells, and provides a basis for all shell theories which account for anisotropy, plasticity, creep, thermal strains, internal reinforcements, and transverse shearing deformations. Prerequisite: Math 325.
-
3.00 Credits
Navier-Stokes equations; statistical description and mean-flow equations; behavior of free shear and wall bounded flows; the energy cascade; turbulence spectra and Kolmogorov hypothesis; measurement techniques: PIV, hot-wires, LDV; turbulence modeling for transport processes and closure schemes for RANS equations; evaluation of model constants, introduction to LES, DNS and hybrid-RANS. Prerequisite: Mech Eng 331 or Aero Eng 331 or Mech Eng 339 or Aero Eng 339 or equivalent. (Co-listed with Aero Eng 435)
-
3.00 Credits
Mathematical theories of equilibrium cracks and brittle fracture, mathematical analysis of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics, COD, R-curve and J-integral analysis. Prerequisite: Aero Eng 336 or Mech Eng 336.
-
3.00 Credits
Features of high temperature gas flows including the development of the necessary background from kinetic theory, statistical mechanics, chemical thermodynamics and chemical kinetics. Equilibrium and non-equilibrium gas properties and gas flows are included. Prerequisite: Mech Eng or Aero Eng 331. (Co-listed with Aero Eng 437)
-
