5 credits (4 lecture, 4 lab)
This course integrates the concepts and principles of engineering analysis into the design process. Fundamental topics in dynamics pertaining to kinematics and kinetics are presented. Design theory is introduced. Material properties and their effect on the design process are discussed. Design procedures for various mechanical elements; including shafts, couplings, bearings, gears, and fasteners are presented. These various elements along with computer software in CADD, spreadsheets, and word processing are then used by the student to do a major design project.
