3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the process of engineering analysis. Static applications of Newton's first law of motion are studied. The concept of the free body diagram and its use in engineering analysis is introduced and emphasized. Topics of discussion include force analysis, resultants and equilibrium of coplanar force systems, analysis of trusses and frames, friction, centroids and centers of gravity, and area moments of inertia. These subjects enable the student to predict the external forces and reactions on an object. Problem solving is emphasized. This course is taught using algebraic and trigonometric methods of analysis.
Prerequisite:
PHYS 101
-
3.00 Credits
This course continues the process of engineering analysis as developed in Mechanics 1, shifting from the external reactions to the resulting internal stresses and strains in an object. Topics include straight line tension and compression stress, shear stress and strain, properties of materials, torsional stress in circular sections, shear and moment diagrams, stresses in beams, design of beams, and deflection of beams. These subjects enable the student to design simple force carrying members. Problem solving is emphasized. Computer applications with beam analysis programs used in industry are taught and integrated into this course.
Prerequisite:
MECH 202
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to fluid mechanics; the study of fluids, how forces act on fluids and their resulting reactions. Topics include the properties of fluids, fluid flow, the Bernoulli equation, the energy equation, the concept of viscosity, flow friction, and the design of pipe systems. Problem solving in fluid systems is emphasized.
Prerequisite:
PHYS 101
Corequisite:
MATH 118 or MATH 102
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides an introduction to the basic principles of industrial robotic technology and automation. Motion control systems, electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic power systems, and sensing systems are introduced. Concepts are reinforced with hands-on lab exercises, including programming of an industrial robot.
Prerequisite:
MATH 117 or MATH 101
-
4.00 Credits
This project-based course integrates the many activities associated with the product realization process. Students will apply the coursework, knowledge, skills, and experiential learning from previous courses as members of a multidisciplinary design development team. Teams will use technical communication to plan, execute, document, and present a comprehensive design project.
Prerequisite:
The student must have completed the courses in the first three semesters of the Manufacturing w/Advanced Technology, the Machine Drafting and Design with CADD, or the Computer Aided Machining Technology A.A.S. Degree program or permission of instructor
-
1.00 Credits
This work experience is designed to allow the student to grow professionally, to identify strengths and weaknesses, to apply learned theory to practical situations, and to gain an appreciation of the role, duties, responsibilities and nature of the work that has been chosen as a career.
Prerequisite:
2.0 GPA and 24 credits completed in the Metrology Program
-
4.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to metrology emphasizing the theory and proper use of dimensional equipment, collection and statistical treatment of data, and blueprint reading. The intent is to develop the student's interest and understanding of metrology along with a thorough knowledge of laboratory technique.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is a study of physical metrology emphasizing the theory and proper use of applied mechanical measurement equipment. The intent is to develop the student's interest and understanding of physical metrology along with a thorough knowledge of laboratory technique.
Prerequisite:
METR 110
Corequisite:
PHYS 102
-
3.00 Credits
The course presents physical and geometrical optics with applications to a variety of areas of measurement. Measurement techniques include mirrors, lenses, diffraction gratings, and interferometry.
Prerequisite:
PHYS 101 or equivalent
-
5.00 Credits
This course introduces the student to the analog semiconductor devices and circuits commonly used in electrical instrumentation. The course then brings together various digital and analog circuits as they are applied in electric meters. This leads into actual electrical calibration and calibration laboratory practices and procedures. Construction and troubleshooting of circuits, documentation and control procedures, instrument calibration, and measurement uncertainty will be emphasized.
Prerequisite:
ELEC 110 and ELEC 225
