Philosophy of design.
Failure models useful in fatigue and distortion circumstances.
Analysis, selection, and synthesis of machine elements. Nonmajor graduate credit. This is a design course in which you will learn to apply your knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering in mechanical design. The course goals are closely tied in with the ABET 2000 criterion for program outcomes and assessment. Your performance in this class will be evaluated based on the above criterion as applied to mechanical design.
