ME 497D – Ideals

A 1-credit course to complement junior level core Mechanical Engineering (i.e. ME82, ME30, ME33, ME51, ME54, AND ME412).  This course provides an opportunity to simultaneously use the theoretical topics from core courses in a hands on, hardware orientated, integrated fashion.

The Competition:

  1. Develop a comprehensive engineering understanding of certain principles of fluid mechanics and design through fabrication and modification of a hovercraft model.
  2. Perform experiments to verify the analysis.
  3. Propose design modifications tailored to the race conditions agreed upon by the teams.
