Seminar
A series of invited lectures on a variety of research programs. Required course; may be taken Pass/Fail. Prerequisite: graduate standing.
Fundamentals of Cellular Engin
Cellular engineering involves characterization and manipulation of cellular function with applications in healthcare, environment and energy. Topics include metabolic engineering, systems biology, drug delivery, stem cell engineering, and plant biotechnology.
Adv Chemical Engin Analysis I
Methods of linear analysis for typical chemical engineering systems. Review of linear algebra and eigen problems. Linear initial-value problems, phase-plane analysis of selected nonlinear systems and some restrictions, elementary numerical methods for initial value problems. Boundary-value problems and eigenfunction expansions for Sturm-Liouville systems, special functions and applications, elementary numerical methods for bound value pde's. Linear partial differential equations by separation of variables, transform methods and methods of characteristics, elementary numerical methods.
Transport Process
Emphasis on foundation and conceptual understanding of physical phenomena. Focus on prototypes of convective transport and transport processes involving homogeneous and heterogenous reactions; role of boundary conditions including moving boundaries; molecular interpretation of diffusion.
Chmcl Reactor Design
Analysis of the kinetics of homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions. The influence of transport and non-ideal fluid behavior on kinetics. The influence of in-homogeneity in temperature and mixing. Design parameters for ideal reactors and changes dictated by non-ideality. Prerequisites: courses in physical chemistry, thermodynamics, and differential calculus.
Thermodynamics I
Review of the fundamental laws of thermodynamics. Prediction and correlation of thermodynamic properties of fluids and fluid mixtures. Stability of thermodynamic systems. Phase equilibrium. Chemical reaction equilibrium.
