-
3.00 Credits
Mechanical design techniques based on the finite element method, using machine design background as the starting point. Techniques for modeling machine elements will be shown in relation to the basic FEM theory. Emphasis will be on quantifying loads, the resulting stress and deflection, and relating them to design allowables, leading to an acceptable design solution. Prereq or concur: ME 344 and ME 205; or graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction of the fundamental concepts for production improvement utilizing lean manufacturing principles and practices. This course will consist of lectures, manufacturing simulation laboratory, plant tours, design projects, and assigned problems drawn from industry. Prereq: Enrollment restricted to junior-level or above students. (Same as MFS 503.)
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the major manufacturing processes and equipment. Emphasis on mathematical and computer models of these processes, as used in automated manufacturing and control of these processes. Lecture, two hours; laboratory, two hours. Prereq: EM 302, EM 313, and engineering standing; or graduate standing with instructor consent. (Same as MFS 505.)
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the structural advantages of composite materials over conventional materials, considering high strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios. Fiber reinforced, laminated and particulate materials are analyzed. Response of composite structures to static and dynamic loads, thermal and environmental effects, and failure criteria are studied. Prereq: EM 302, engineering standing or consent of instructor. (Same as EM/MSE 506.)
