MEC 3000 - THL Modeling and Numerical Analysis Transfer3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
This is a placeholder course for the course Modeling and Numerical Analysis that is taken by MSOE students studying abroad at the Technische Hochschule Lübeck (THL) as part of the Mechanical Engineering Exchange program with THL. It is not intended for regular offering at MSOE. (prereq: must be participating in the THL exchange program)
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Model engineering systems using first and second order differential equations, and solve the equations both analytically and numerically
- Employ the Taylor Series for approximation and error analysis
- Formulate and apply numerical techniques for root finding, curve fitting, differentiation, and integration
- Write computer programs to solve engineering problems
Course Topics
- Introduction to modeling
- Error analysis/Taylor Series
- Root finding
- Curve fitting
- Matrix applications
- Numerical differentiation
- Numerical integration
- Differential equations
- Partial differential equations and boundary value problems
Laboratory Topics
- Programming/computing techniques
- Matrix solution methods
- Solution of simultaneous equations
- Modeling and numerical simulation of first and second order mechanical/electrical/thermal systems
- Applications of root-finding to vehicle dynamics & thermal insulation
- Applications of curve-fitting to experimental data
- Applications of numerical integration to evaluate moments of inertia, friction work, volumetric fluid flow, and/or thermal heat flow
