2.00 Credits
A required laboratory course taken concurrently with 0304-347. Illustrates the mechanical behavior of common engineering materials. Students investigate a material's response to axial, torsional and bending loads. In addition students are introduced to statistical analysis of data, basic experimental techniques, and effective report writing. (0304-336; corequisite 0304-347) Lab 2, Credit 1
-
3.00 Credits
This hands-on laboratory course introduces students to the proper use and application of basic machine tools. Students will learn about machine capabilities and capacities, verifi cation and setup procedures, and the system of operations necessary to achieve the required part specifi cations. Students will also be introduced to CNC machine tools and their applications. This course may be used towards free elective credit. (0304-343) Lab 2, Credit 1
-
5.00 Credits
A basic course in the kinematics and kinetics of particles and rigid bodies. Newton's Laws and the theorems of work-energy and impulse momentum are applied to a variety of particle problems. Systems of particles are employed to transition to the analysis of rigid body problems. Absolute and relative motion are used to investigate the kinematics and kinetics of systems of rigid bodies. Newton's Laws and the theorems of work-energy and impulse-momentum are also applied to a variety of rigid body problems. (0304-336) Class 5, Credit 5
-
4.00 Credits
A basic course introducing the classical theory of thermodynamics. Applications of the fi rst law of thermodynamics are used to introduce the student to thermodynamic processes for closed and open systems. The Clausius and Kelvin-Planck statements of the second law are then correlated with the concept of entropy and enthalpy to investigate both real and reversible processes and the thermodynamic properties of pure substances. (1016-282 OR 1016-273, 1017-311) Class 4, Credit 4

4.00 Credits
Includes the physical characteristics of a fl uid: density, stress, pressure, viscosity, temperature, vapor pressure, compressibility. Descriptions of fl ows: Lagrangian and Eulerian; stream lines, path lines, streak lines. Classifi cation of fl ows. Fluid statics: hydrostatic pressure at a point, pressure fi eld in a static fl uid, manometry, forces on submerged surfaces, buoyancy, standard and adiabatic atmospheres. Flow fields and fundamental laws: systems and control volumes, Reynolds Transport theorem, integral control volume analysis of basic equations for stationary and moving control volumes. Inviscid Bernoulli and the Engineering Bernoulli equation, some applications. Incompressible fl ow in pipes; laminar and turbulent fl ows, separation phenomenon. Dimensional analysis: Buckingham's pi-theorem, similitude, model studies. (0304-413) Class 4, Credit 4
-
2.00 Credits
This laboratory course pertains to topics covered in Thermodynamics (0304-413) and Fluid Mechanics (0304-415). Each laboratory experiment is designed to quantify the differences between real and ideal systems through rigorous system analysis. Students will work in teams to evaluate various thermo-fl uid systems. Extensive analysis is used to calculate system characteristics and to graph and predict system behavior. (0304-413; corequisite 0304-415) Lab 2, Credit 1
-
4.00 Credits
The analysis and theory of machine design in the context of failure theories. Particular emphasis is placed on the design and analysis of machine elements and fatigue. A discussion of engineering professionalism and ethics is also included. (0304-347) Class 4, Credit 4
-
4.00 Credits
A study of numerical methods to model and solve engineering problems using a computer. Students learn to analyze and interpret the numerical solutions obtained. Topics include roots of algebraic and transcendental equations, linear systems, curve fi tting, numerical differentiation and integration, and ordinary differential equations. Applications are taken from students' background in statics, mechanics, dynamics, mathematics and thermodynamics. (0304-342, 347; corequisite 1016-318) Class 4, Credit 4
-
4.00 Credits
This course lays the foundation for studies in energy and the environment. Topics include an introduction to energy intensive systems and how they interact with the environment. Specifi c attention is focused on current events both domestically and internationally, and how these events will shape our future energy production and utilization. This course may be used as a free elective. (Third-year standing in an engineering discipline) Class 4, Credit 4
-
4.00 Credits
This course lays the foundation for studies in bioengineering. Topics include the principles of living systems, fundamentals of biomolecular and cellular engineering, engineering applications, and medical engineering. This course may be used as a free elective. (Third-year standing in an engineering discipline). Class 4, Credit 4
