69489	Lecture	AL3	2:00PM -2:50PM	MWF	Engineering Hall	Bentsman, J Wang, T	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/21/20-05/06/20 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Signal Processing Section Info: This course is for graduate students interested in reinforcing their modeling, signal analysis, instrumentation, and control techniques through solving a challenging industrial problem. Namely, an electrohydraulic-actuator/flexible-beam assembly exhibiting resonance will be introduced, and the sequence of course topics will be integrated into a tool set capable of suppressing this resonance. A high fidelity MATLAB model of an assembly will be used as a virtual lab to carry out the project tasks and help develop problem solution, the likes of which are currently employed in industry. This course is taught jointly with ME360 Honor's section, but graduate students will have additional graduate level tasks added to their projects and will be required to go through additional material in the course textbook. Restriction(s): Restricted to Engineering. Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign. Not intended for ZJUI program students.
65802	Lecture	AW3	3:30PM -5:20PM	TR	Natural History Building	Alleyne, M Lee, P Wissa, A	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/21/20-05/06/20 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Bio-Inspired Design Section Info: ME 498 meets with IB496. These courses offer a unique interdisciplinary advanced design experience in the field of bioinspiration. During the course we will cover four focus areas: locomotion, sensing, materials, and complex systems. For each topic, we will discuss the state of the art on engineering side and the solutions in nature that can augment the current engineering systems. By the end of the course you should be able to work in interdisciplinary teams, use analogical design concepts, and produce a prototype based on a biological function to solve an engineering challenge in one of the four focus areas. Restriction(s): Restricted to Grainger Engineering. Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.

69482	Lecture	MG	2:00PM -3:50PM	TR	Noyes Laboratory	Gazzola, M Parthasarathy, T	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/21/20-05/06/20 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Comp modeling & optimization Section Info: Computational Optimization for Biological and Engineering Systems. This course provides a hands-on introduction to modern computational modeling and simulations techniques applied to the understanding of biophysical and engineering problems. From moving bodies in fluids and bio-hybrid robots, to unconventional ‘birds-nest’ materials and propulsion on sandy dunes, you will learn to model biophysical phenomena and implement software able to capture their essential behavior. Moreover, you will learn to employ evolutionary optimization algorithms in combination with the developed models, to inverse design more performant solutions. This course requires some basic Matlab or Python or C/C++ coding skills.

Laser Diagnostics for Propulsion Research will provide students with a practical understanding of advanced laser and optical diagnostics used to study complex energy conversion phenomena in high speed propulsion systems. The students will be exposed to basic spectroscopy principles as well as developments in the latest optical measurement techniques that are used to study (1) combustion phenomena in supersonic flows, (2) chemical kinetics of fuel oxidation, and (3) gas turbine combustors. Special focus will be placed on application of both single point and 2-D imaging diagnostics for study of hypersonic aircraft engines and development of next-generation alternative fuels. Students will be expected to design a novel laser diagnostics strategy as the final project for the course
