Structuring of materials at the micro-/nano-scale has become a standard method for creating optical, thermal, acoustic, and mechanical properties, which are not possible by traditional stochastic material processing. The new materials created by the deliberate control of their structures have been called ?metamaterials? and will play a critical role in the development of future high-performance materials. The aim of the course is to provide multidisciplinary knowledge for understanding metamaterials with selected applications.

A Senior Design (SD) project course including design concept selection, design spec writing, assembly design (DFM), design analysis, a final report and oral presentations in defense of the design. Prerequisites: M&I-ENG 313, 354, 375 and 413. Satisfies the Integrative Experience requirement for BS-ME majors..

The objective of this class is to gain a deeper understanding of several issues related to teaching and learning, including how students learn, different methods of instruction and mentoring, and the challenges in making and grading assignments.

Principles of mechanical behavior and failure of metals, polymers, and ceramics. Analysis of problems in design of structural materials that must meet certain strength and performance criteria. Emphasis on the engineering significance and use of various experimentally measured properties such as fatigue life, critical stress intensity factor, relaxation modulus, creep rupture life, and crack growth rate.

Design for manufacturability; emphasis on design for injection molding, die casting, and stamping. Introduction to design for assembly. Introduction to machining, metal casting, polymer processing, and bulk deformation processes (forging, extrusion, drawing, and rolling) and sheet-metalworking process. Prerequisites: M&I-ENG 201 and 211.

Description not available at this time. Course may be taken twice for credit and is not repeatable for grade forgiveness.

Design of engineering systems, machines, consumer goods, etc. which acommodate the characteristics of human users, operators and manitaners. Methods for obtaining data about human performance, preferences, tolerances, and group behavior needed in engineering design problems. Case methods used with comprehensive readings in the literature. Student projects relating to human factors in design. Prerequisites: one previous course in human factors and consent of instructor.
