300
This course examines a topic in mechanical engineering that is of special relevance at the time the course is taken. Course content varies accordingly.
EGR 101, EGR 160
This course is an introduction to analysis, design, and specifications of mechanical components such as shafts, bearings, and power transformers. Students will learn to make basic design decisions regarding the suitability of different materials in mechanical components (e.g. steel versus aluminum); and to make basic design decisions regarding the suitability of different components in a mechanical system (e.g. ball bearings versus fluid film bearings). Analytical techniques such as finite element analyses (FEA) may be used.
EGR 160, EGR 217
This course examines the theory and principles of mechanical design specification, verification, and manufacturing through computer aided design and modeling.
EGR 217
EGR 261 Materials Science
This course examines the theory and principles of mechanical design specification, verification, and manufacturing through computer aided design and modeling within a laboratory setting.
ME 330
This course examines basic properties and analysis of fluids such as hydrostatic pressure, fluid flow, continuity, momentum, and energy.
EGR 160, EGR 218
This course examines basic properties and analysis of fluids such as hydrostatic pressure, fluid flow, continuity, momentum, and energy within a laboratory setting.
The course presents the three modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation studied in different geometries. Methods for solving multi-mode heat transfer are presented throughout the course. Applications of heat transfer such as heat exchangers and heat transfer from extended surfaces are also presented.
MEC 350, MTH 265
This labexamines heat transfer within a lab setting.
