Mechanical Engineering
Description: Introducing modeling. Using dimensional analysis and similarity, and their application to experimental design leading to physical modeling, Deriving governing equations from first principles leading to mathematical modeling. Analyzing one, two, three and multi-dimensional systems in engineering, the presentation of the solutions on a phase diagram. Investigating bifurcations, linear stability, and numerical solutions. Expands on fundamental concepts first introduced in Applied Mechanics Dynamics, Fluid Mechanics, Differential Equations and Numerical Methods. Co-convened with ME 456. Letter grade only.
