3.00 Credits
A brief review of thermodynamics and an introduction to fluid mechanics with the specific goal of developing the theory of equilibrium combustion and the fluid mechanics of Nozzles. Other topics associated with chemical rocket systems. Final project that will include a complete analysis of a particular existing chemical rocket engine.
-
3.00 Credits
Assessing risk and predicting the effects of failure is an important part of engineering. These are influenced by the manner in which engineers develop, evaluate, and use information in making decisions. Engineering decisions are also influenced by ethical and legal considerations in the forms of codes, regulations, and standards. This course will address selected ethical, legal, and technical issues related to the failure of engineering systems and include specific case studies.
-
3.00 Credits
This is a one semester course that surveys topics from nonlinear analysis with emphasis on applications to controls. Topics include nonlinear phenomena, describing functions, linearization, nonlinear stability, Lyapunov stability, Lyapunov control functions, adaptive control, stability of nonautonomous systems, boundedness, center manifold theory, bifurcations, feedback linearization and hybrid systems.
-
1.00 Credits
This course requires attendance at a series of Engineering and other Universtiy seminars on a weekly basis and students are required to submit short reports on each seminar attended. Course credits can not be used to fulfill any graduation requirements in either the Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering programs.
