Study includes transient and steady state frequency response, stability analysis, control modes, and simulation of control systems. Emphasis on Maxwell s equations, transmission lines, and wireless technology. Selected topics such as electrodynamics, fiber optics, bioelectro magnetics and effects in high-speed digital systems addressed as student interest and time permits. Vector calculus and alternative coordinate systems. Effects of material properties.
Special project allows hands-on experience and investigation of current literature.
Topics include signals, noise, bandwidth, modulation, coding, transmitter versus receiver circuiting, wired versus wireless links, high-frequency devices, and specialized systems as student interest and time permits. Thermo-dynamic properties and data, the first and second laws of thermodynamics, entropy and availability concepts, and control volume analyses are considered. Thermodynamic systems and cycles for power generation, refrigeration, and heat pumping are also examined. Lagrangian and Eulerian analysis are considered. Continuity, momentum, and energy equations are developed in integral and differential form for incompressible flows.
