3.00 Credits
The course is primarily concerned with the determination of the rate of heat transfer due to the transport of energy to or from surfaces by both molecular conduction processes and gross fluid movement inside channels and over external surfaces. Emphasis will be placed on basic understanding of the convection heat transfer phenomena and the necessary mathematical techniques for the solution of such problems along with engineering applications. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).

3.00 Credits
Thermal radiation processes. Physics of monochromatic and total radiation. Emission and absorption. Exchange factors for black and gray surfaces and enclosures. Radiant exchange involving: absorbing and emitting media, including gases and flames. Properties of solar radiation. Significance of coatings on radiative interchange. Emphasis on basic understanding of the radiation heat transfer phenomena along with engineering applications and methods of solution of such problems. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).

3.00 Credits
This course is intended to give the overall knowledge of energy sources, their conversion and utilization in the most efficient way. The course will stress both the theoretical and practical applications of efficient conversion mechanisms of conventional and alternate energy systems.
-
3.00 Credits
A second course in materials which expands the philosophy that all materials possess common traits which allow: (1) interchange of classes of materials to perform the same function, e.g., metals, polymers, ceramics, composites, etc.; and (2) understanding of the mechanisms of property controls in new materials. There is an attempt to provide equal representation of the science and the phenomena of engineering materials. Greater emphasis is placed on thermodynamics, stress-strain relations, multicomponent phase equilibria, and such other areas as received minimal exposure in the first course in materials. As a result of present technology trends, more time is spent on composites and achievement of design specifications through synthesis. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).
-
3.00 Credits
Life cycles of materials. Selecting engineering materials for use in product parts, for protecting products, and for use in factory. Processing ceramic and polymeric materials. Controlling quality of materials. Using preformed and decorative materials. Operations with hazardous materials. Computer-aided material selection. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).
-
3.00 Credits
This is an in-depth course on injection molding processes, which include the conventional injection molding process, low pressure injection molding, structural sandwich molding, gas assisted injection molding etc. Material, process and tool design parameters are emphasized. The roles of rheology and flow modeling are discussed. Design issues for injection molded products are also discussed. Injection molding applied to other materials, such as ceramics, is also described. (YR).
-
3.00 Credits
Mechanical behavior of materials are covered in relation to their structures, deformation characteristics and failure mechanisms. Means of improving strength, fracture toughness and other mechanical properties are discussed. Environmental effects on mechanical behavior are also included. The emphasis is on metals; however, polymers and ceramics are also covered. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).
-
3.00 Credits
Mechanical behavior of polymers and ceramics are considered in relation to their structures, processing and applications. Emphasis is given on their deformation, fatigue and fracture characteristics. Strengthening mechanisms for both materials are discussed. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).
-
3.00 Credits
An understanding of the properties of the most important cast metals is obtained by melting, casting, and testing. In addition to measurement of mechanical properties, resistance to heat, wear, and corrosion is discussed. The application of these properties in the design of critical parts in the aircraft, automotive, chemical, mining, and railroad industries is presented by case histories and examination of castings. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).
-
3.00 Credits
Manufacturability of materials and influence of processing variables on the properties of manufactured products are important considerations in materials selection and product design. These issues are addressed on the basis of mechanical deformation and thermal characteristics of materials during processing. Test methods to measure formability, castability, machinability, etc., are critically discussed. Defects in manufactured products including their origin and detection are also discussed. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).
