-
3.00 Credits
Methodology of selecting the right equipment of the right size for each task of the construction job on the basis of power-train characteristics, crew size, terrain conditions, and job requirements. Cycle time, cost, specifications, maintenance, replacement policy, monitoring.
-
3.00 Credits
Investigation into merging renewable energy resources, including detailed study of solar, wind, and bioenergy alternatives. Also includes principles, technologies, and performance evaluation of components for these technologies and an introduction to tidal, hydro, geothermal, and other energy; energy conservation; cogeneration; financial, economical, and other issues related to alternative energy sources. May also be offered as BE 6400. Coreq: CE 6401.
-
0.00 Credits
Non-credit laboratory to accompany CE 6400. May also be offered as BE 6401. Coreq: CE 6400.
-
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: Graduate standing.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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. It is expected that students have a solid understanding of engineering fluid mechanics, including hydrostatics, energy and momentum, conservation of volume, and dimensional analysis, before enrolling in this course.
-
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 6520. 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 6530.
