VideoENGS 22: Systems
The student is introduced to the techniques of modeling and analyzing lumped systems of a variety of types, including electrical, mechanical, reacting, fluid, and thermal systems. System input will be related to output through ordinary differential equations, which will be solved by analytical and numerical techniques. Systems concepts such as time constant, natural frequency, and damping factor are introduced. The course includes computer and laboratory exercises to enhance the students' understanding of the principles of lumped systems. Fall and spring enrollment is limited to 60 students; winter enrollment is limited to 50 students.
