Professional Modules Mathematics for Engineering Modeling To further extend the student’s understanding, developed in Level 1, of a variety of mathematical techniques and the application of these techniques in modelling engineering problems.

Computational and Numerical Methods This module consolidates previous mathematical knowledge and develops new mathematical and numerical techniques relevant to Mechanical Engineering.

Electric Circuits This module introduces the concepts and analytical tools for interpreting and predicting the behaviour of combinations of passive circuit elements, resistance, capacitance and inductance driven by ideal voltage and/or current sources which may be ac or dc sources. The last few lectures will introduce the basics of electromechanical energy conversion. The ideas involved are important not only from the point of view of modelling the behaviour of real electronic circuits but also because many complicated processes in medicine, science and engineering are modelled by electronic circuit analogies.

Materials Processing To introduce students to the relationship between microstructure, processes and properties of engineering materials. To provide students with an appreciation of the implications of controlled materials processing in the design and manufacture of mechanical engineering components and structures. To describe the main classes of processes available and to show students how different processing routes can lead to different microstructures and properties in the same material. Lectures are illustrated with practical case studies and complemented by two engineering laboratories showing how thermo-mechanical processing affects the microstructure of materials and therefore influences their mechanical properties.

Finance and Law for Engineers The module is designed to introduce engineering students to some of the key financial and legal issues that engineers are likely to encounter in their working environment. The module will draw directly on practical issues of budgeting, raising finance, assessing financial risks and making financial decisions in the context of engineering projects and/or product development. At the same time the module will develop students¿ understanding of the legal aspects of entering into contracts for the development and delivery of engineering projects and products and an awareness of environmental regulation, data protection and intellectual property rights. Through a series of parallel running lectures in the two disciplines, the module will provide a working knowledge of the two areas and how they impinge on engineering practice. There will be a heavy emphasis on group working, report writing and presentation as part of the assessment supplemented by online exercises and an individual portfolio.

Project Management and HRM for Engineers The module is designed to introduce some of the key elements of the discipline of project management including planning and scheduling, the allocation of resources projects, risk assessment, and mechanisms for monitoring, controlling, evaluating and terminating projects. At the same time the module well develop an aware of the importance of human resource management for successful delivery of projects in practice, including recruitment, organisation, team working, performance measurement and appraisal of human resources as well as developing an understanding of the theories of worker motivation and leadership. Through a series of parallel running lectures in these two areas, the module will provide a working knowledge of how they impinge on engineering practice. There will be a heavy emphasis on group working, report writing and presentation as part of the assessment supplemented by online exercises and an individual portfolio.

Dynamics of Structures and Machines The module teaches the skills necessary to model typical two dimensional machine components so as to analyse their kinematic and kinetic properties. Relative motion and gyroscopic motion are taught as are the dynamics of gears and rotors. The module also covers the subject of mechanical vibration of single degree of freedom systems. Modelling of systems by mass, spring and damper elements is covered, as are methods for analysing simple harmonic motion. The most common vibration cases are presented including both undamped and viscously damped systems, free and forced vibration, and both mass and base excited systems.

Mechanics of Deformable Solids The module continues the process begun in the first year of providing the essential knowledge, understanding and skills associated with the mechanics of deformable solids which students require to become competent Chartered Mechanical Engineers.

Design of Engineering Structures and Components The course brings together analytical, computational and empirical approaches to the design and optimisation of structures and systems. It develops both the knowledge and awareness of the student in terms of being able to make decisions based on limited data and include both ethical and economic considerations. Practical worked examples are developed which show how basic mechanical theory can be adapted and applied to `real life¿ design situations. The assessment includes a `design audit¿ in which a component is dismantled and then analysed for functionality. A specific design is used as a thematic project in which the functional analysis and eventual synthesis are brought together. This enables the student to develop their skill in formulating analytical and computational models and evaluating them so as to develop an optimal design solution.

Fluid Engineering The module is designed to consolidate and extend the students’ understanding of basic fluid flow properties and fluid flows. The module will cover the use of both integral control volume and differential analysis techniques. These will be applied to a range of simple engineering fluid systems, Newtonian laminar analysis will be applied to internal flows. The boundary layer will be introduced and related to the concepts of drag. Sub-sonic and sonic compressible flow will be introduced. The study of turbomachinery forms a significant part of the course. Idealised axial and radial flow pumps and turbines are analysed. The students will also be introduced to the computational fluid dynamics using FLUENT and given hands-on experience.

Heat Transfer and the Thermodynamics of Mixtures This module will familiarise the student with the fundamentals of Heat Transfer. The module will enable the student to analyse the energy conversion performance of standard systems for power generation, thermal control and air conditioning. The student will gain an understanding of the basic limitations imposed by the lawas of thermodynamics and heat transfer on the design and performance of such systems.
