We train the next generation of ‘whole-brain’ mechanical engineers to lead with both creativity and analytical thinking. We pursue fundamental principles at the core of mechanical sciences and their ...

Strategies and methods of designing, manufacturing, and testing of mechanical products. Engineering drawing and CAD, design methods, material properties, failure modes, selection methodology, ...

Friction. Kinetics of rigid bodies in planar motion. Equilibrium of rigid bodies. Mass centers and moments of inertia of rigid bodies, dynamics of rigid bodies in planar motion. Kinetics of particles.

Modeling the dynamic behavior of physical systems. Concepts of causality, dependent and independent storages, and state. Introduction to bond graphs. Generation of state equations; analytical and ...

Introduction to a wide range of computational techniques for engineering design. Modeling, simulation, optimization, design software, examples/projects with emphasis on computational techniques for ...

This class covers the foundations of rigid multi-body mechanics. Topics include geometry of rigid bodies, rotating bodies, Lagrangian mechanics and variational principles, conservation of energy and ...

Structures fail due to improper manufacturing, accidents (overloads), and aging (fatigue, environmental damage). Intelligent Structural Health Management (ISHM) systems seek to prevent catastrophic ...

Thermodynamics concerns the foundation of all branches of physical sciences. Therefore, this is a required course for all mechanical engineering students. Also, the students of all other branches of ...

None, however, undergraduate level knowledge of mechanics, probability and dynamics is helpful.

These courses are taught by mechanical engineering faculty but are offered in other departments. Check the mechanical engineering course schedule for courses currently offered in the department.
