Engineering Science

This course introduces the fundamental principles of mechanics, focusing on the analysis of static systems. Topics include the study of concurrent force systems, statics of particles, and equivalent force/moment systems. Students will explore the concepts of centroids and center of gravity, as well as the equilibrium of rigid bodies. The course also covers the analysis of trusses, frames, and machines, and investigates the internal forces in structural members. Additional topics include the principles of friction and the calculation of second moments of areas. The course emphasizes problem-solving techniques and the application of static principles to real-world engineering scenarios. 
Prerequisite: PHYS151 Calculus-based Physics

This course introduces the fundamental theories of stress and strain, focusing on the behavior of materials under various loading conditions. Topics include the application of these theories to analyze stress distribution, deformation, and instability in simple structural forms. Students will explore material properties, stress-strain relationships, and how these principles are used to assess and predict the mechanical behavior of materials and structures under different forces. Emphasis is placed on the understanding and generalization of these theories for practical applications in engineering design and analysis. 
Prerequisite: ES211 Statics

Vector treatment of the absolute and relative motion of particles and rigid bodies. Subjects include: Newtons laws, kinetics of particles and particle systems, work and energy, impulse and momentum, mass moment of inertia, and impact.
Prerequisite: ES211 Statics
Corequisite or Prerequisite: MATH250 Calculus II

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics. Topics include fluid properties, mass, energy, and momentum conservation laws, and the application of dimensional analysis and modeling. Students will study both laminar and turbulent flow regimes, as well as surface and form resistance in various fluid systems. The course covers flow in pipes and open channels, elementary hydrodynamics, and methods for fluid measurements. Additional focus is placed on the characteristics of hydraulic machines and their applications in engineering systems. Students will develop a deep understanding of fluid behavior and its application in real-world engineering scenarios.
