DYNAMIC SYSTEMS

ME 751

Overview of techniques used to understand the time evolution (dynamics) of multi-body mechanical engineering systems. Modeling, equation formulation, and numerical methods used to determine the dynamics of multi-body mechanical systems. Rigid and flexible multi-body dynamics, friction and contact. Knowledge of Python or MATLAB strongly recommended. Knowledge of dynamic systems [such as M E 240 or340] required.

ME 448

Integrated treatment of mathematical modeling and analysis of mechanical systems. Modeling of linear and nonlinear systems and their performance under transient, periodic and random loads.

ME 746

Emphasis on obtaining equations which define the behavior of physical systems frequently subjected to control; mechanical processing, fluid power, and thermal systems; analytical, experimental, and computer techniques. Knowledge of Automatic Controls [such asM E 446orE C E 332] is required.

ME 461

Analysis and design of engineering systems involving applications of thermodynamics, economics, heat transfer, and fluid flow.

ECE/ME 732

Emphasis on obtaining equations which define the behavior of physical systems frequently subjected to control; mechanical processing, fluid power, and thermal systems; analytical, experimental, and computer techniques. Knowledge of Automatic Controls [such asM E 446or E C E 322] is required.
