3.00 Credits
Discussion of basic concepts in the analysis and design of bridges using current American Association of Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) specifications. Presentation of common types of bridges, types of bridge loads, load distribution, design of bridge structural components. Techniques for bridge inspection and load rating. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 433 and 434 must be taken prior to or concurrently with this class.
-
3.00 Credits
A quantitative account of elements of the hydrologic cycle, including precipitation, evapotranspiration, snowmelt, infiltration, and surface runoff. Basic laws from such various disciplines as physics, chemistry, meteorology, astronomy, fluid mechanics, and thermodynamics, combined into simple mathematical descriptions used in the hydrologic design process.
-
3.00 Credits
A rigorous mathematical study of flow in open channels, including uniform, gradually varied, rapidly varied, tidal, and flood flows. Analytical and numerical solutions to the governing conservation equations developed with the aid of the computer, and stable channel design addressed. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 357.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to municipal solid waste management and hazardous waste management. The relationship between the properties of wastes, the techniques and hardware used for waste handling and processing and the ultimate disposal (containment) of waste and other residual materials will be emphasized. Remediation of contaminated areas is also covered. The design of systems for the management and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes subject to economic factors, safety, reliability and ethical and social implications will be examined.
-
3.00 Credits
Evaluation and control of water quality in streams, lakes, and estuaries. Mathematical analyses of patterns of water movement and their relation to water quality. Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) allocation design.

Introduction to finite element method in engineering science. Derivation of element equations by physical, variational, and residual methods. Associated computer coding techniques and numerical methods. Applications. Prerequisites: programming ability, ordinary differential equations, basic matrix algebra. Same as M&I-ENGIN 605.
-
3.00 Credits
Advanced topics in transportation planning and analysis, including a review of linear regression, discrete choice model theory, estimation and applications, and traffic assignment model theory and applications with a computer programming component. Topics covered vary across semesters. Supplemented by scholarly publications that reflect the current research development in travel behavior modeling, transportation demand forecasting, traffic network modeling and optimization.
-
0.00 Credits
Fundamentals of soil behavior, soil mineralogy and structure, soil stresses, stress-strain-strength behavior of cohesionless and cohesive soils, consolidation behavior of saturated soils, and determination of consolidation and strength parameters in practice. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 320.
