Section Title:
Fun with Mechanics - Part 2
Section Info:
This course is being offered to give graduate students an opportunity to participate in a creative design project course that is of a competitive nature. In the first semester ( 2 credit hours ) small student teams of 3 - 5 persons will design a device to meet the specified technical requirements of the competition and provide an engineering analysis that shows that their design is likely to be successful. The device will be fabricated in the second semester ( 2 credit hours). The Fall 2017 project was to build a walking machine that is powered by a cordless drill that carries a human rider. A competition consisting of racing around the Engineering Quad will be held at the end of the second semester in the spring of 2018. This course has no lectures or exams, grades are based solely on the project.

Laser 3D Printing
Section Info:
The course addresses laser powder bed fusion (LPBD) 3D printing technology. The LPBF is an additive manufacturing (AM) process where a laser fuses particulate materials such as metals, polymers, or ceramics. The course includes an overview of the LPBD method, data preparation workflow, AM process chain, AM parameters-microstructure-property relations, post-processing, and case studies. EOS company will offer a summer internship to a top student in the class.

Carbon Capture and Storage
Section Info:
Carbon capture and storage is an important technology for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating global warming. This course will cover fundamentals for CO2 separation from syngas and post-combustion flue gas, the most advanced CO2 capture technologies including absorption, adsorption and membranes, CO2 compression and transportation, and CO2 sequestration in deep underground geological formations. The course will have regular lecture sessions, combined with reading and discussion sessions as well as the writing of a short research paper.

Advanced Robust Control
Section Info:
This course covers advanced robust control methods including optimal control using observer feedback, Linear Quadratic Gaussian, Kalman Filtering, H-infinity optimal control, static and dynamic projective control, and the Loop Transfer Recovery process to recover state-feedback frequency domain properties in observer based designs. None of these methods are covered in the ME562 course. The course then introduces adaptive augmentation to the optimal control observer-based architectures in which the observer becomes a closed-loop reference model. This adaptive control methods is completely different from the L1 Adaptive Control method conceived by Hovakimyan and Cao

Combustion Theory
Section Info:
The aim of this course is to provide students an understanding of the basic principles of combustion processes, how they relate to experimental observations and how they are used in theoretical and numerical modeling. Starting from a comprehensive discussion of the general equations governing the flow of chemically reacting mixtures, simplified descriptions of various combustion phenomena will be derived, and their physical significance will be discussed. The topics will cover the fundamentals of chemically reacting flows, classification of combustion waves, the structure of deflagrations and detonations, premixed and diffusion flames, multi-dimensional flames, flame stretch and preferential diffusion, lifted flames and edge flames, ignition and extinction phenomena, intrinsic flame instabilities, and aspects of multi-phase and turbulent combustion.
