A quantitative account of elements of the hydrologic cycle, including precipitation, evapotranspiration, snowmelt, infiltration, and surface runoff. Basic laws from such various disciplines as physics, chemistry, meteorology, astronomy, fluid mechanics, and thermodynamics, combined into simple mathematical descriptions used in the hydrologic design process.

Discussion of basic concepts in the analysis and design of bridges using current American Association of Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) specifications. Presentation of common types of bridges, types of bridge loads, load distribution, design of bridge structural components. Techniques for bridge inspection and load rating. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 433 and 434 must be taken prior to or concurrently with this class.

Behavior of structures and structural components exposed to time dependent loadings. Vibrations of systems; descriptions of dynamic systems. Prerequisites: CE-ENGIN 331, MATH 331.

Seismic considerations for the design of civil engineering systems. Topics include geology of earthquakes, strong motion records, ground motion, site amplification, response spectra, seismic hazard, seismic design.

This course covers operations and safety topics related to bicycle and pedestrian transportation. Bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure treatments, complete streets, and the impacts of such designs and practices on operations and safety are studied. In addition, this course includes topics related to multimodal signal control and level of service as well as the connection between bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure with physical activity and overall health outcomes. Discussion on how bicycling and walking are accounted for in decision-making is also included.

Characteristics of traffic system components including drivers, vehicles, and roadways. Fundamental principles of traffic flow, operations, and controls. Traffic demand analysis and highway capacity analysis. Traffic engineering studies involving volume, speed, travel time, and delay. Techniques of field data collection and methodology of office analysis. Intersection design and analysis. Signalized intersection control involving signal phases and timing. Emphasizes methodology as well as practice. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 310.

Introduction to transportation systems analysis and modeling as applied to the urban transportation planning process, multiple transportation modes, and the larger metropolitan environment. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 310.
