ME 380 Machine Design

Fall Semester

Students in Machine Design investigate theories of failure of machine components, and thus learn to analyze and design components to predict and avoid failure. Students will investigate static loading, fatigue loading, surface loading, and their associated modes of failure. Specific component types, such as fasteners, springs, bearings, gears, brakes, and shafts may be covered. 3 lecture hours. 3 laboratory hours. Prerequisite: 2.0 or higher in ME 264 and FCO 105 or WRT 102
