-
3.00 Credits
Provides an introduction to water resources infrastructure designs using hydrologic information, such as frequency analysis, peak discharge, hydrographic, and design-storm computer methods. Students learn to apply statistical methods and hydrologic models (e.g., HEC-HMS) to quantify hydrologic information for design studies of a wide variety of problems in water resources engineering. Preq: CE 3420.
-
3.00 Credits
Extension of the concepts of fluid mechanics to applications in water supply, water resource assessment, water transmission, water distribution networks, pump and pipe selection, pipe networks, and analysis of open channel appurtenances. Preq: CE 3410 with a C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Study of flood hazards and methods of protective design of the built environment; floodplain mapping and delineation; methods for determining base flood elevations. Discusses flood-resistant construction, flood proofing, and governmental regulations. Includes case studies and design projects. Preq or concurrent enrollment: CE 3420.
-
3.00 Credits
Evaluation of peak discharges for urban and rural basins, design of highway drainage structures such as inlets and culverts; stormwater and receiving water quality; best management practices, detention and retention ponds, and erosion and sediment control. Preq: CE 3420 with a C or better. Preq or concurrent enrollment: EES 4010.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides an overview of environmental fluid mechanics and the role of fluid flows in pollutant transport in natural systems. Environmental flows covered include momentum driven flows (e.g. turbulent jets), buoyancy driven flows (e.g. smoke plumes), and advection and diffusion. The course includes several visits to the environmental fluid mechanics lab where students observe these flows at small scale. Preq: CE 3410.
-
3.00 Credits
Provides a comprehensive review of the subject and covers electrochemical reactions, thermodynamics and kinetics of corrosion, different types of corrosion, corrosion monitoring techniques, and corrosion prevention through materials selection, design, cathodic and anodic protection and coatings. May also be offered as MSE 4520. Preq: CH 1010.
-
3.00 Credits
During non-destructive evaluation, scientists or engineers use a range of techniques to probe the properties of a material or system without causing damage. This course gives an overview of common techniques, including but not limited to liquid penetration, acoustic emission, eddy currents, x-ray, magnetic and ultrasonic testing. In addition, the course provides insight into the limitations of these techniques and identifies how they are currently used by engineers and other professionals in a variety of applications. May also be offered as MSE 4530.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to various concepts related to the impact of construction materials such as Portland cement, aggregates, asphalt materials, steel, wood, polymers and ceramics on environment and sustainability. Field visits to LEED and Green Globes certified buildings on campus showcase various practices in the industry to improve sustainability. Oral and written communication skills are an integral part of this course. Preq: CE 3510.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to design methods, construction practices, maintenance strategies, and decision making process related to pavements. Other topics, such as environmental considerations and special pavement types and materials, are also covered. Preq: CE 3110 and CE 3510, each with a C or better. Preq or concurrent enrollment: CE 3210.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to the role of testing and inspection professionals in civil engineering projects. Uses a practical approach to applying concepts to real-world situations through the completion of several team projects such as material characterization, construction QC/QA, forensic evaluation, and proposal development. Preq: CE 3210 and CE 3510, each with a C or better.
