62621	Lecture	ANS	10:00AM -11:20AM	MW	106B3 Engineering Hall	Gao, G	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/19/16-05/04/16 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Adv Global Nav Sat Systems Section Info: Satellite Navigation, and in particular, the Global Positioning System (GPS) is a critical component in avionics, and has been widely used in both ground and aerial vehicles. The discipline is in a period of flux. The U.S. GPS and the Russian GLONASS are being joined by the European Galileo and the Chinese BeiDou systems. Furthermore, the prospect of a commercial UAV industry in the near future will create significant new engineering opportunities in designing and building avionics systems involving GPS. In this course, students will learn advanced satellite navigation technologies with applications in UAV flight and control systems.
64177	Lecture-Discussion	C	10:00AM -11:50AM	MW	203 Transportation Building	James, K Tortorelli, D	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/19/16-05/04/16 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Nonlinear Solid Mech Design Section Info: This course will be taught with ME 570, Nonlinear Solid Mech Design. Optimality conditions; finaite methods; design sensitivity analysis; transient analysis; thermo-mechanical solid mechanics. Prerequisite: One of AE 420, CEE 470, ME 471, TAM 470, TAM 445, TAM 551.
51409	Lecture-Discussion	MCF	9:00AM -10:20AM	MW	319M Talbot Laboratory	Le Chenadec, V	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/19/16-05/04/16 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Multiphase CFD Section Info: 4 hours. Topic: Multiphase Computational Fluid Dynamics. Course will concentrate on governing equations and numerical solution of multiphase equations in both Eulerian and Lagrangian reference frames. This includes a review of theoretical and empirical point-force expressions for an individual particle surface force. In addition, resolved-surface techniques, such as immersed-boundary methods and level-set methods will be employed. Prerequisite: Introductory Multiphase course such as CEE 559 Sediment Transport or ME 504 Multiphase Systems and Processes.
62423	Lecture-Discussion	MGD	9:00AM -10:50AM	TR	403B2 Engineering Hall	Panesi, M	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/19/16-05/04/16 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Gas Dynamics Section Info: The course provides the basic knowledge of the kinetic theory of gases, chemical thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. These analytical tools will then be applied to the study of equilibrium gas properties over wide temperature ranges, the kinetics of physical and chemical reactions, and the interaction of matter with radiation. The course material is useful in studies of combustion chemistry, high temperature and rarefied gas dynamics, low temperature plasmas, hypersonics, gas diagnostics with lasers, etc.

64334	Laboratory-Discussion	MRM	ARRANGED	n.a.	Location Pending	Bretl, T	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/19/16-05/04/16 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Mech of Robotic Manipulation Section Info: Title: Mechanics of Robotic Manipulation Human hands do many useful things. We would like robot hands to do these same things, and more. The goal of this course is to understand how. To achieve this goal, we will study the mechanics of contact between robot hands and the objects they manipulate. We will learn how to model the kinematics and dynamics of articulated rigid bodies that roll across, slide along, and impact each other. We will learn how to test these models by comparison with experimental data. We will apply what we have learned to solve a variety of manipulation problems (manufacturing, construction, rehabilitation, in-home assistance, planetary sample return, satellite maintenance, etc.). Prerequisites: Either be a graduate student or have taken ECE470 (a course on robot kinematics).
