Numerical control and automation fundamentals, testing of materials and suitability of fabrication.
An introduction to the processes and materials of manufacturing with emphasis on the metal removal technology.
A project-based course in which the student builds, implements, and tests a design that was attained in a prior class. A formal presentation and report is a required part of the course.
Notes:Cross listed with ET 432.
A problem-based course that provides students with an opportunity to focus on a specific design or engineering problem. Initial proposals, strategies and timelines to complete the project will be completed in this course. Appropriate project management is stressed. Engineering ethics in relation to product design will also be explored.
Notes:Cross listed with ET 431.
The study of energy, heat, work, the properties of the media employed and the processes involved as applied to solving problems in engineering. Also includes an introduction to heat transfer concepts.
Applying engineering concepts to components such as gears, shafts, fasteners and structural members. In addition to theoretical analysis, this course incorporates solid modeling and finite element analysis software to model strain and motion behavior of complex systems.
Analysis of the relationship between applied forces and stresses, strains, and deformations in solid materials, including the application of engineering design standards.
An introductory study of linear and angular displacement, velocity and acceleration; including the application of integral and differential calculus; absolute and relative motion; mechanisms, planar motion, work, energy, power and momentum.
