2.00 Credits
The course is about the analysis and design of machines and machine elements under tensile, shear, torsion, flexure, combined stress, impact and fatigue loading. Emphasis is on the design procedure, sizing of parts, use of strength of materials and the use of manufacturers catalogs in design and in the selection of standard parts. Typical elements studied could be keys, gears, belts, chains, fasteners, springs, bearings, welds, linkages, shafts, columns, couplings, clutches, brakes and cams. Prerequisites: MT 121 or MT 125, DF 104. Concurrent registration in ME 318, or permission of instructor. S (N)
-
1.00 Credits
Several machine design projects will be completed to review the subjects covered in the machine design course. A few stress analysis cases will be carried out using Algor software. Concurrent registration in ME 317, or permission of instructor. S (N)
-
2.00 Credits
Instruction in the theory and application of design fundamentals for drill jigs, fixtures and press tooling. Principles of proper location, support, tolerance computation and related factors in jig and fixture design. Strip layout, press capacity and selection and design requirements for punch press applications. Prerequisites: MT 121 or MT 125, DF 104. Concurrent registration in ME 322, or permission of instructor. F/S (N)
-
1.00 Credits
Course includes student design of tools required for parts production in areas of study, as selected from typical industrial problems and examples. Students will use CAD software to complete their projects. Concurrent registration in ME 321 or permission of instructor. F/S (N)
-
2.00 Credits
An approach to the basic principles of fluid mechanics including hydrostatic pressure, Bernoulli equation, continuity equation, friction in pipes and ducts, pressure loss in fluids, conservation of momentum and flow devises.

Laboratory work involves fluid mechanic experiments, the related calculations, utilization of computer analysis and writing reports. The lab activities complement the course topics and enhance the learning process. Concurrent registration in ME 343, or permission of instructor. F (N)
-
3.00 Credits
Basic principles of thermodynamics as applied to the analysis of prime mover power cycles, refrigeration, air conditioning and heat exchanger equipment. Topics include the definition of heat, work, energy, power, first and second laws of thermodynamics, properties of sub-cooled liquids, saturated and superheated vapors, use of steam tables and ideal gases. Prerequisites: MT 121 or MT 125, or permission of instructor. F (N)
-
2.00 Credits
An introduction to heat power cycles and equipment, which includes understanding of heat transfer and heat exchangers. The course starts with heating and cooling load calculation of buildings. Power cycles such as Rankine (steam power plants), Otto, Diesel and Bryton (gas turbine) are discussed and analyzed. Also included are the topics of reversed cycles, psychrometry, refrigerants and refrigeration systems. Prerequisite: MT 125 or MT121. Concurrent registration in ME 347, or permission of instructor. S (N)
-
