MEM 435 Introduction to Computer-Aided Engineering 0.0-4.0 Credits

The objective of this course is to introduce Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) tools for design, analysis, and simulation of mechanical engineering problems. The fundamental theory of finite element analysis (FEA) is introduced, and the general procedure of FEA modelling and simulation is used to analyze various problems from the mechanical engineering field. Topics include modeling, assembly, computer simulation and analysis of motion, mechanism, structural, thermal, and fluid mechanics problems in static, dynamic, steady-state, and transient response. Modern commercial software is used as an integrated laboratory component of this course.
