ENGN 295 - Intermediate Special Topics in Engineering


Credits: 3 credits for fall or winter; 4 credits for spring.
Planned Offering: Offered when interest is expressed and departmental resources permit.



Prerequisites: Vary with topic. Intermediate work in bioengineering, solid mechanics, fluid mechanics or materials science. May be repeated for a maximum of six credits if the topics are different.

Fall 2014 topic:

ENGN 295-01: Machine Dynamics and Design (3). Prerequisite: ENGN 204. Rigid-body kinematic and kinetic analysis of common machine types to determine machine output in terms of the input driving force or input driving energy. Investigation of design procedures for common mechanisms including synthesis of motion components such as quick-return, dwell periods, or coupling motions. Students learn to generate machines that will express desired motions or complete specific tasks. Students design and create machines using graphical techniques, computer modeling, and using basic construction techniques. Sukow.
