AVM 1100Fundamental Measurement Analysis3
Covers Measurement System Analysis (MSA), which is of critical importance to manufacturing. Its proper utilization allows companies to identify quality and production issues and to prioritize and to address them accordingly. Introduces fundamentals of measurement systems, statistical concepts, sources of variation, measurement strategies, and planning. Reviews and explores measurement system variability and techniques. Discusses linearity, repeatability, reproducibility, and production capability using Gage repeatability & reproducibility (R&R), process capability (Cp), and process capability index (Cpk).
Introduces the basic elements of manufacturing process including planning, operations, materials supply, quality control, process integration, and environmental compliance. Discusses advanced and micro-manufacturing methods including 3-D printing and other additive manufacturing methods. Evaluates design for manufacturing methods, computer integration, automation and robotics, as well as Industrial IoT, in technical and business aspects.
Provides a comprehensive training covering fundamental principles, technologies, and applications of composite materials. Offers students an opportunity to gain an understanding of strengthening mechanisms in fiber, particle, metal-matrix, ceramic-matrix, carbon-carbon, and hybrid composites and to learn how to calculate elastic modulus, critical fiber length, and other parameters. Discusses design considerations of aramid-reinforced composites, such as Kevlar, and other composite materials in terms of their applications. Reviews applications of composite materials in aviation, defense, sports, and advanced manufacturing.
Offers students an opportunity to obtain a fundamental understanding of relationships of materials composition, structure, treatment, and performance. Relates these topics to manufacturing processes used to achieve targeted performance characteristics. Emphasizes materials characterization, data collection, processing, and analysis. Incorporates failure analysis into the discussion and reviews in terms of product performance, durability, and cost. Evaluates advanced surface engineering and design methods for improving product performance. Reviews materials performance in aerospace, robotics, and semiconductor industries.
Offers students an opportunity to learn the fundamental principles of materials processing. Discusses a variety of ferrous and nonferrous metals, alloys, ceramics, and plastics in terms of processing methods, technologies, and manufacturability. Considers microstructural changes related to product performance and specifications. Uses phase diagrams and isothermal transformational diagrams to explain materials transformations and properties. Evaluates thermal, mechanical, composite, joining, surface engineering, and other processing methods from the point of view of applications, scalability, and cost.
