-
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
Student teasm develop mecanical or interdisciplinary design projects, or continue projects begun in ME 4671. Work includes mechanical engineering design, and could possibly include fabrication and testing. Projects can involve efforts by interdisciplinary teams. Written and oral presentations are required.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of casting, welding, plastic forming, and machining of materials; analysis of forces, energy requirements, and temperature effects; design specifications economically obtainable in terms of dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and material properties, functional characteristics of equipment. Two lectures and a laboratory.
-
3.00 Credits
Physical and mechanical behavior of unreinforced and reinforced (composite) polymeric materials in relation to their applications in modern technology. Emphasis is given to the design considerations with these materials in contrast to those with metallic materials. Time-dependent properties, such as creep and stress relaxation, are considered. Manufacturing methods are covered. Three lectures/recitation.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will consider the manufacturing processes for production of plastics and composite parts. The emphasis will be on manufacturing principles that are based on rheology, polymer flow and transport phenomena. Design considerations and quality control techniques for manufacturing plastic and composite parts will also be covered.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Design project involving not only design but also analysis, fabrication and/or testing. Topics may be chosen from any of the areas of mechanical engineering. Students who have taken ME 425 and ME 464 will be encouraged to take this course. The student will submit a report on his or her project and give an oral presentation at the close of the term. (F,W,S).
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Special problems selected for laboratory or library investigation with intent of developing initiative and resourcefulness. (F,W,S).
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Individual study, design or laboratory research in a field of interest to the student. Topics may be chosen from any of the areas of mechanical engineering. The student will submit a report on his or her project at the close of the term. (F,W,S).
-
3.00 Credits
This course will introduce the advanced energy conversion systems in automotive vehicles and cover the fundamentals, characteristics, and design consideration of the energy systems. The topic includes using alternative fuels in internal combustion engines, advanced power train systems in hybrid, electric, and fuel cell vehicle, and exhaust energy recovery systems.
-
2.00 - 3.00 Credits
Comparison of characteristics and performance of several forms of internal combustion engines including the Otto and diesel types of piston engines and the several types of gas turbines; thermodynamics of cycles, combustion, ignition, fuel metering and injection, pollution from engines and modeling techniques. Lectures, theory demonstrations, and experiments.
-
4.00 Credits
Analysis of vehicle performance in terms of acceleration, gradability, speed, fuel economy, ride comfort, stability and safety. Engine-transmission compatibility and matching. Fundamental vehicle dynamics. Computer modeling and simulation of vehicle systems by numerical techniques. Transmission ratio and torque analysis. Design of vehicle systems such as brakes, suspensions, drive line components, steering mechanisms and other subsystems. Four hours lecture. (F,W).
