Numerical Methods for Engineers  Update Link / Bad Link
ME 352 is a required course for the BSME program, and it is typically taken in the third year. The primary goal is to provide mechanical engineering majors with a basic knowledge of numerical methods including: root-finding, elementary numerical linear algebra, solving systems of linear equations, curve fitting, and numerical solution to ordinary differential equations. MATLAB is the software environment used for implementation and application of these numerical methods. The numerical techniques learned in this course enable students to work with mathematical models of technology and systems.

Feedback Control Experiments - Experiments for feedback control education and research  Update Link / Bad Link
Quanser Consulting, Inc., offers a complete line of feedback control experiments. The systems are robust, durable, and modular thus allowing you to reconfigure the same plant to obtain various experiments. Our experiments include the Inverted Pendulum, the Ball and Beam, the Seesaw/Pendulum MIMO experiment, and the Helicopter. All systems are equipped with quick-connect cabling, source code in C, handbooks, system modeling, and control system design files written in Maple, MATLAB, and Simulink. Capture your students' interest while teaching them well-established principles or give your research project an edge by implementing the new control strategies you are developing.
