Advanced Mechanics of Materia ls

＜outline＞

It is necessary to precisely know the stress distribution in a body in order to design safe， l ight

and cheap structures， machines and their elements such as beams， columns. gears and so on.

Students have already learned “ Mechanics of Materials ” in their undergraduate course.

Machine designers can reasonably estimate so cal led the maximum stress and deflection for

simple structural elements such as beams and bars subjected to tensi le/compressive loads，

twisting moments and bending loads solo or simultaneously. The maximum stress distribution as

well as deflection/strain can be well estimated for those simple elements by using the

elementary theory on bars ， beams and columns even if they are subjected to sl ightly

complicated loads in two or three dimensional space. We introduce one dimensional assumption，

namely we use only “x” as an independent variable to formulate the governmental equation for

such structural analysis. However， the present structures are much more complicated. They

have three dimensional expansionｓ in the space. Suppose you are going to design a high

performance automobile engine. Can you imagine how to apply the one dimensional beam theory

to design the engine block?

In order to optimally design such structures， we always have to consider the three dimensional

space for stress， strain and deflection. The stress and strain distributions are governed by the

three dimensional (simultaneous) differential equations of force equil ibrium. It is almost

impossible to get the closed form solution for those equations. We need more practical approach

for getting the reasonable solution for stress and strain distributions in three dimensional bodies

for more safe， l ight and cheap design. There is a widely used approach for general stress

analysis， namely， Finite Element Method (FEM). In this course， students wi l l learn fi rstly

how much engineers struggled to establish the classical theory for stress and deflection analysis.

An introduction to theory of elasticity wil l be given to get the mechanical engineers’ sense.

Then， some experimental methods wil l be given for estimating the stress distribution in a f lat

plate. Students wil l conduct a small experiment to measure the stress concentration around a

hole in a steel plate sample. Final ly， introduction to FEM for elastic bodies wil l be learned.

Students wil l make a short program for analyzing the stress distribution around a hole in a steel

plate by using MS EXCELL. The numerical results wi l l be compared to the previous experimental

results and discussed. A short report is required to complete this course.

This course provides an intensive lecture essential for understanding fluid engineering. These

distinct， yet intertwined subjects are addressed in an integrated manner. It starts with

coherent treatment of fundamental continuum mechanics， by which the fundamental concepts

of f luid dynamics are progressively bui lt up， and serve as a foundation for later development.

The engineering treatment covers the design and operations of various turbomachines， heat

exchangers and flow elements. In order to make the course self-contained， many exercises and

problems are provided in addition to the numerous pedagogical aids that have been incorporated

throughout. The intention is to faci l itate the students to compose their knowledge into a better

understanding of both the theoretical and applicable aspects of f luid engineering.

Advanced Analytical Chemistry

＜outl ine＞

The discipl ine of analytical chemistry is comprised of qualitative analysis and quantitative

analysis. The former deals with the identif ication of elements， ions， or compounds present in

a sample， while the latter deals with the determination of how much of constituents is present.

Mass spectrometry today is an indispensable tool for both qualitative and quantitative analysis

in modern chemistry and l ife sciences. This course wil l guide graduate students from their f irst

steps to the successful application of mass spectrometry in their dai ly work in research. Starting

from very principles of gas phase ion chemistry and isotopic properties， it leads through the

design of mass analyzers and the ionization methods in use to mass spectral interpretation and

coupling techniques.

Step by step you wil l understand how mass spectrometry works and what it can do as a powerful

tool in your hands that serves equally well for analytical applications as for basic research.

Advanced Transport Phenomena

＜outl ine＞

Advances as well as fundamentals of transport phenomena， including momentum transfer

(viscous flow)， energy transfer (heat conduction and convection) and mass transfer (diffusion)，

are discussed based on basic physical principles along with the analogy in basic

laws/mechanisms of transport， and explored in terms of mathematical formulation. Emphasis is

put on deriving the three basic equations of momentum， energy and mass transfer for

continuous flow systems， and i l lustrating their applications to various chemical engineering

problems. These analyses are helpful for students to understand the basics of chemical

apparatus and processes. Specif ic topics include: 1) three basic laws of molecular


26

transport--Newton's law of viscosity， Fourier's law of heat conduction， and Fick's law of

diffusion; 2) shell balances--setting up ordinary differential equations for simple geometries; 3)

equations of change--their derivation， simplif ication with judicious assumptions， and solution

of the remaining equations; 4) unsteady transport processes characterized by partial differential

equations， and methods of solution; 5) macroscopic balances involving the use of proper

empirical correlations for transfer coefficients in complex geometries and/or convective flows.

If you reconsider the global environmental issues from the scientif ic view that anyone can

understand in common sense， you may come up with unexpectedly questionable or

incomprehensible points. Surprisingly， environmental issues are greatly related to the world

poli tics. While considering those points， several cases are presented.


The ideas such as global warming due to increases in carbon dioxide or energy agenda of fossi l

fuel exhaustion are becoming quite common. However， some discrepancies may emerge if

evaluated with the established science view. By taking those discrepancies or questionable

points into consideration， you may be able to understand the nature of environmental issues

and its measures.

R &D Planning for Scientists and Engineers

＜outl ine＞

An independent researcher has to have one’s own working field in which the researcher should

prove the original i ty and competence. An engineer in a R&D division of a company has to bear a

product that sustains the company’s competit iveness in the next generation. Thus， scientists

and engineers have to find good R&D themes that they can work， and manage themselves for


57

their R&D themes to come into the conditions that had been planned in advance. Successful

management of R&D planning is the key for scientists and

engineers to be most productive. Guidel ines to set up a time-effective R&D planning for

scientists and engineers are taught in this course.


Setting up a proper goal， and the ski l l to reach the goal with a finite duration of time are

extremely important in managing R&D. Having a concrete schedule for R&D should also

strengthen your project proposal . The course aims at cultivating students ' potentials in these

aspects.
