Prerequisites: ME 635. This course covers advanced CAD and CAE tools for visual computing simulation and analysis. Topics include modeling, assembly, CAD data exchange by exporting and importing various CAD model formats, computer simulation and analysis of structure, thermal, fluid and animation of the results of analysis. Multi-physics analyses such as thermal-structure, electric-thermal-structure in MEMS and fluid-structure interactions are studied. The laboratory component involves use of most current commercial CAD/CAE software packages.
