NPRE 598 class schedule data for spring 2016
CRN	Type	Section	Time	Day	Location	Instructor	Section Details
64436	Lecture-Discussion	ACV	ARRANGED	n.a.	Location Pending	Singer, C	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/19/16-05/04/16 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Arms Control Verification Section Info: This special topics course will allow students to become familiar with international nuclear treaties and how they compare. The similarities and differences that arise between nuclear treaties and other weapons of mass destruction will also be studied. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
63900	Lecture-Discussion	MPF	9:00AM -10:50AM	TR	136 Loomis Laboratory	Brooks, C Kozlowski, T Vanka, S	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/19/16-05/04/16 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Computational Multi-Phase Flow Section Info: The course covers the fundamental treatment of the general conservation equations of multi-phase flow and advanced computational techniques for their solution. Local-instant, time-averaged, and area-averaged multi-phase flow approaches will be derived and discussed from first principles. Computation techniques utilized for system, component, and CFD codes will be covered including volume of fluid, level set, and interface tracking. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
63910	Lecture	PMI	11:00AM -12:20PM	TR	225A Talbot Laboratory	Allain, J	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/19/16-05/04/16 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Fund Plasma Matls Interactions Section Info: The course will introduce the student to fundamental concepts in plasma-materials interactions (PMI). In particular the course connects the concepts of surface science to irradiation-driven modification used in plasma nanosynthesis of advanced materials and PMI phenomena encountered in extreme environments (e.g. nuclear fusion). The course is designed to lay the foundation of mastering selected techniquesand methods for PMI. The organization of this course will: 1) prepare the student with the fundamental aspects of plasma-surface science, 2) use these fundamental concepts and expand into PMI of nanosynthesis and extreme environments and 3) master methods and characterization techniques used in plasma nanosynthesis and PMI in extreme environments including: techniques for in-situ analysis and simulated experiments. The extra hour for graduate students will include an experimental practicum designed and tailored by the students. The lab meeting times are to be determined according to the student's schedule. Prerequisites: NPRE 429 or NPRE 421 or graduate standing in Engineering with instructor approval. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
