Team-based project course focusing on design or research effort with focus in a CEsub-discipline. Involves the study of an open-ended project, including problem formulation, development of methodology, data collection from physical experiments and/or models, analysis and interpretation, and formulation of conclusions/solutions. Requisites: 4th Year Standing Civil Majors and Assignment by CEE dept.
Credits: 3
The course covers basic aspects of smart structural systems. Fundamental concepts of structural dynamics and vibrations will first be reviewed. Students will then be introduced to a variety of subjects including smart materials, sensing and data acquisition systems, signal processing methods, structural health monitoring, and structural control concepts. Practical applications of smart materials and technologies will be presented and discussed.
Credits: 3
Study of the dynamic behavior of such structures as beams, rigid frames, floors, bridges, and multi-story buildings under the action of various disturbing forces such as wind, blasts, earthquakes, vehicles, machinery, etc.; dynamic modeling of single, multidegree of freedom, and continuous systems; damping; numerical integration; Prerequisite: Concrete and metal structure design.
