Protecting the World: Introducing Corrosion Science and Engineering
by Prof Robert Akid , Prof Stuart Lyon , Adam Stephenson , Dr Robert Lindsay , Dr Michele Curioni , Dr Nick Stevens, BSc PhD- 4.6
Approx. 12 hours to complete
If you have ever encountered rusty car bodies, leaking pipes, tarnished silverware or the green patina of a copper roof then you have experienced corrosion in action. This course, from the Corrosion@Manchester team in collaboration with AkzoNobel, will teach you why metals corrode, what the environmental consequences are, how much corrosion costs and how corrosion can be controlled....
Fatigue Failure in Different Fields of Engineering
by Kazem Reza Kashyzadeh- 0.0
Approx. 23 hours to complete
In recent years, owing to global competition and greater need of customers for safety, durability, and reliability of products, there has been a considerable tendency to improve quality in various industries. The aim of this course is to introduce MSc graduates, Ph. D. The topics cover common challenges that engineers should consider to study the causes of component failure....
Construction and operation of pumps for nuclear power plants
by Slobodchuk Victor Ivanovich , Rabotaev Vladimir Grigorievich- 0.0
Approx. 24 hours to complete
Pumps are widely used in industry, agriculture and in public utilities. However, it is in power engineering that pumps find the widest range of applications. The technological systems of nuclear and thermal power plants involve transferring large quantities of fluids with different physical and chemical properties at different pressure and temperature....
Rigid Body Dynamics
by Sukyung Park- 4.6
Approx. 14 hours to complete
This course teaches dynamics, one of the basic mechanics subjects of Mechanical Engineering. Students would be able to organize their knowledge about force and motion, work-energy, impulse-momentum in view of Newton's 2nd law and its integration over time and displacement. The Engineering Dynamics consists of two parts: particle dynamics and rigid body dynamics....
Ideal Gases
by John W. Daily- 4.5
Approx. 6 hours to complete
Course 3 of Statistical Thermodynamics, Ideal Gases, explores the behavior of systems when intermolecular forces are not important. This done by evaluating the appropriate partition functions for translational, rotational, vibrational and/or electronic motion. We start with pure ideal gases including monatomic, diatomic and polyatomic species. Computational methods for calculating equilibrium properties are introduced....

Statistical Thermodynamics: Molecules to Machines
by Venkat Viswanathan- 3.9
Approx. 10 hours to complete
Modern engineering research focuses on designing new materials and processes at the molecular level. Statistical thermodynamics provides the formalism for understanding how molecular interactions lead to the observed collective behavior at the macroscale. This course will develop a molecular-level understanding of key thermodynamic quantities like heat, work, free energy and entropy....
Dense Gases, Liquids and Solids
by John W. Daily- 4.5
Approx. 5 hours to complete
Course 4 of Statistical Thermodynamics addresses dense gases, liquids, and solids. As the density of a gas is increased, intermolecular forces begin to affect behavior. For small departures from ideal gas behavior, known as the dense gas limit, one can estimate the change in properties using the concept of a configuration integral, a modification to the partition function....
Non-Equilibrium Applications of Statistical Thermodynamics
by John W. Daily- 4.4
Approx. 8 hours to complete
Course 5 of Statistical Thermodynamics explores three different applications of non-equilibrium statistical thermodynamics. The first is the transport behavior of ideal gases, with some discussion of transport in dense gases and liquids. It starts with simple estimates of the transport properties of an ideas gas. It closes with a discussion of practical sources of transport properties....
