MCEN-5025 (3) Computer-Aided Design of Mechanical Systems

Instructs students in displacement, velocity, and accelerations matrix formulation of mechanisms. Emphasizes numerical methods to solve simultaneous nonlinear algebraic and differential equations modeling mechanical devices. Involves analysis and synthesis of mechanical components and systems, including planar and spatial linkages, cams, springs, shafts, and gear trains. Prereqs., MCEN 3030 or equivalent, and MCEN 3025. Restricted to College of Engineering and Applied Science Graduate Students or BS/MS Mechanical Engineering Concurrent Degree students. Prerequisites: Restricted to College of Engineering and Applied Science Graduate Students or BS/MS Mechanical Engineering or Concurrent Degree students.
