Aerospace Fluid Mech

Incompressible and compressible flow theory applied to airplane lifting surfaces and engines. Topics include potential flow theory, the Euler equations, thin airfoil theory, and gas dynamics. A commercial computational fluid dynamics package may be used to visualize the flows.

Design of Mechanical Systems

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..

Phys&Chem Processng of Materls

The course aims at a comprehensive introduction to the physical and chemical processes involved in the design and manufacturing of materials used in current materials engineering technologies, including modern device fabrication technologies. The course will offer a broad review of kinetic processes in engineering materials that control the materials' structural and chemical characteristics in relation to material properties.

Dynamics

Kinetics and Kinematics of particles and rigid bodies. Newton?s laws, work-energy and impulse-momentum principles, laws of linear and angular momentum, conservation of momentum, planar motion of rigid bodies, and introduction to vibration of single-degree-of-freedom systems.

Prerequisites: CE-ENGIN 240 or M&I-ENG 210

Seminar

Presentation of current research activities and literature by faculty, graduate students, and outside visitors. Credit, 1 ea sem.
