3.00 Credits
The principles of dynamics as applied to the analysis of the accelerations and dynamic forces in machines and machine components such as linkages, cams, and gears. The effect these dynamic forces have on the dynamic balance and operation of the machines and the attending stresses in the individual components of the machines. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: ENGR 2090 and MATH 2400. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
The displacement, velocity, and acceleration analysis of planar mechanisms, four bar linkages, slider, cranks, cams, and gear systems. Some synthesis techniques. Explore the use of existing large and small computer graphics programs. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: ENGR 2090. When Offered: Spring term annually . Credit Hours: 3
-
4.00 Credits
Topics in flight dynamics generic to rotorcraft (e.g., helicopters and tilt-rotor VTOLs). Lift and propulsion systems, hovering, and forward flight characteristics. Dynamics of flapping rotors. Longitudinal and lateral trim. Dynamic flight stability, controllability, and basics of automatic control requirements. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: MANE 4070 or equivalent. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
3.00 Credits
Students work in teams to continue design and development work on approved projects that started in other courses such as Introduction to Engineering Design. New projects can also be proposed by students. Emphasis will be on completing the design, building an improved prototype, applying for patent protection, and licensing the design. Open to undergraduate and graduate students. Oral and written presentations are required. This is designated as a writing-intensive course. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: ENGR 2050 or permission of instructor. When Offered: Fall and spring terms annually. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
Conceptual and preliminary design of manned and unmanned air vehicles to satisfy given mission requirements and aircraft specifications. Includes elements of initial sizing and weights, geometry selection, aerodynamic design, propulsion integration, stability and control, loads, structural design, materials, manufacturability, and cost analysis. Writing-intensive assignments help develop communication skills. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: MANE 4060 and MANE 4090 and MANE senior standing. When Offered: Spring term annually . Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
An introductory course in use of the Finite Element Method (FEM) to solve one-and two-dimensional problems in fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and elasticity. The methods are developed using weighted residuals. Algorithms for the construction and solution of the governing equations are also covered. Students will be exposed to the use of commercial finite element software. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: ENGR 2250 or ENGR 2530 or ECSE 4160 and senior standing. When Offered: Fall and spring terms annually. Cross Listed: Cross-listed as CIVL 4240. Students cannot obtain credit for both this course and CIVL 4240. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
Mechatronic system design principles, modeling/ analysis/control (continuous and digital) of dynamic systems, control sensors/actuators and microcomputer/microcontroller interfacing, control electronics, and real-time programming for control. Lectures and weekly homework exercises; student teams complete two projects, each with required oral and written presentations; reverse engineering of a successful mechatronic system and a design-build-test exercise based on one of the laboratory systems of Mechatronics. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: MANE 4490. When Offered: Spring term annually . Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
This course acquaints students with all the phases of the design process from recognizing the need through a detailed conceptual design. Students work in teams on a semester-long project with the assistance of faculty consultants. The design projects require students to draw upon their engineering background, experience, and other pertinent resources. Oral and written presentations are required. Writing-intensive assignments help develop communication skills. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: senior standing When Offered: Fall and spring terms annually. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
Dynamic analysis and control of multibody mechanical systems. Review of dynamic analysis using Newton-Euler and Lagrange formulations of equations of motion. Introduction to dynamic analysis using Kane's Method. Comparison of the methods for formulating equations of motion. Computer-aided control system analysis and design using root-locus, frequency-response, and statespace analysis and design methods. Introduction to linear quadratic control and robust/H control. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: MANE 4050, MANE 4170. When Offered: Offered on availability of faculty. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces the student to the theory and use of numerical design optimization methods, with a major focus on the algorithms and problem formulations relevant to engineering design. The lectures concentrate on the algorithm development while the exercises emphasize correct problem formulation and evaluation of the results. Topics include methods for unconstrained nonlinear problems, constrained linear and nonlinear problems, sensitivity analysis, multiobjective optimization, and mechanism optimization. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: MANE 4030 or equivalent. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 3
