MEEN 620 Measurements and Instrumentation
This is an advanced course on the theory and design of engineering measurements. Integrated throughout the course are the necessary elements for the design of measurements systems and measurement test plans, with an emphasis on the role of statistics and uncertainty analysis in design. Topics also include sensors, signal conditioning circuits and noise reduction techniques. Typical sensor topics include temperature, force, torque, pressure, flow and acceleration. Practice will be given to students, through course projects, on the measurement of mechanical engineering quantities. Software use such as LabVIEW and MATLAB will be integrated into course projects.
