Integrated Design of Mechanical System

Catalog description

ME 4324 Integrated Design of Mechanical System. Cat I This course develops student capabilities to conduct the detailed design of mechanical components integrated into a complete mechanical system. Topics covered include kinematic syntheses and analysis and detailed design of mechanical components under dynamic loading using the fatigue-life method. These topics are developed through a guided design project. Computer software packages such as Mathcad and Linkages are used. Recommended Background: ES 2001 (Introduction to Materials Science), ES 1310 (Introduction to Computer Aided Design), ES2501 (Introduction to Static Systems), ES2502 (Stress Analysis), and ES2503 (Introduction to Dynamic Systems).
