-
3.00 Credits
Course makes students aware of the various ways in which engineers can contribute in the field of medicine. Students are introduced to the mechanics of the human body's physical movements and are given an overview of physiology and anatomy as applicable to mechanics and kinematics of joints. Focus is on sensory organs, mechanics of load-bearing, dynamics of human motion and the causes and effects of the failures of joints. A major component is the design of engineering artifacts to assist in motion and/or replace limbs. In addition, students design measurement techniques for assessing the performance of sensory organs. Prerequisite: junior standing.
-
3.00 Credits
Course covers theoretical and practical design of machine parts and simple systems. Includes the integration of the basic engineering disciplines necessary for proper analysis, synthesis and design of structures, simple machines or processes, including screws, springs, bearings and gearing. Establishment of design criteria based on stress and fatigue analysis and on experimental results, statistical considerations, materials, steady and variable loading. Prerequisite: ME 370.
-
3.00 Credits
Course deals with some limitations imposed on the design of dynamic systems due to vibrations. Course covers single and multiple degrees of freedom systems; free and forced vibrations; spectral analysis of forcing functions and system response; vibration resonance and damping; wheel and rotor balancing; vehicle suspension system design; protection of delicate and sensitive instruments from environmental vibrations; design concepts in seismometers and accelerometers. Students conduct a paper design of an instrument employing the principles of vibration theory or resolve an actual vibration problem in a machine or equipment. Prerequisites GE 205, MTH 322.
-
3.00 Credits
Course introduces students to the subject of engineering measurements, placing special emphasis on the fundamental aspects of engineering measurements, experimental techniques, sensors and measurement systems, computer-aided measurement systems, research methods and design of experiments and measurement systems. Course includes open-ended design project of mechanical parameter measurement systems, experimental testing, data analysis, uncertainty analysis and error propagation, report-writing and final presentations.
