4.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide a broad background in the various manufacturing processes used in industry. Attention is given to various methods by which semifinished products can be conditioned, analyzed, or synthesized, including the economic advantage and disadvantage of each method. Topics include foundry practices, die casting, extruding, forging, stamping, and polymer processing. Three lecture hours, three lab hours. Laboratory fee.
-
3.00 Credits
Reviews the classification and structure of metals, polymers, glasses, and ceramics. The student will investigate the effects of heat treatment on various classes of materials through the use of phase diagrams and time-temperature-transformation curves. Students will gain hands-on experience with computer-based data-acquisition systems and strain-gauge application in conjunction with materials testing. Prerequisites: MET 116 and MTH 112. Laboratory fee.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to Newton's laws of static equilibrium in coplanar and noncoplanar forces, using vectors and free-body diagram concepts. Specific topics include theory of moments, couples, analysis of structures, friction, centroids, and moments of inertia. Three lecture hours. Prerequisites: MTH 232 and PHY 120.
-
4.00 Credits
A combined course in mechanics and strength of materials. It involves the study of the relationship between externally applied forces and internally induced stress. Topics include analysis of stress/strain and their relationship, stress in axial-loaded members, riveted and welded joints, Mohr's circle, statically indeterminate members, torsion, shear and moment diagrams, beam deflection, and combined stress. Three lecture hours, three lab hours. Prerequisite: MET 236. Laboratory fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Applied component design using the principles of statics and strength of materials. Topics include stress concentration, theories of failure, cyclic loading, shafts, keys, coupling, bending in two planes, screw threads, and welded joints. Three lecture hours, three lab hours. Prerequisite: MET 243. Laboratory fee.
-
4.00 Credits
The study of oscillatory motion of machines and structures and the forces that create this motion. Harmonically forced vibrations for single-degree-of-freedom systems, undamped and damped vibrations, and multidegree- of-freedom systems are studied. Vibration instrumentation is also explored. Three lecture hours, three lab hours. Prerequisites: MET 243 and MTH 352. Laboratory fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Incompressible and compressible flow using the continuity, general energy, and momentum equations. Topics include properties of fluids, fluid statics, kinematics of fluid flow, energy consideration in steady flow, momentum and forces in fluid flow, and fluid measurement. Three lecture hours, three lab hours. Prerequisite: MTH 241. Laboratory fee.
-
4.00 Credits
First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics as applied to open and closed systems. Topics include the theory and significance of pure substances, work, heat, internal energy, enthalpy, and entropy. Ideal and real gas calculations are made, and vapor systems are studied. Three lecture hours, three lab hours. Prerequisite: MTH 352. Laboratory fee.
