AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the requirements for a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering with an emphasis on aerospace engineering, specifically the need for 30 total units and 21 units of electives at the 500-600 level. The user inquires whether electives can be taken from various fields such as Mechanical Engineering (ME), Aerospace Engineering (AE), or Civil Engineering (CE). Responses highlight that at Purdue, certain courses in Aeronautics and Astronautics (AAE) can count for both ME and AE credits, particularly in aerodynamics and propulsion. However, the overlap in acceptable courses is limited and primarily focused on dynamics for ME students. The user plans to consult with other aerospace engineering students for further clarification once the semester begins.

Hi..i am studyin M.S. in M.E. emphasis on aerospace engineering in california, usa...my catalogue mentions i need 30 units total for the degree. I need 21 units of electives at the 500 - 600 level. My question was if i am able to take those 500-600 level electives in any field like ME, AE, CE. I have talked with few advisors but they have been very confusing so just wanted to get an idea from other ME students...tnx so much.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
At Purdue, in both the AAE and ME graduate curriculums, there are some courses that will give credit for both major areas. Most of the AAE courses that give credit to ME's are in the areas of aerodynamics and propulsion. For AAE's it turns out that the acceptable ME courses seem to be more focused on dynamics. There aren't many courses like this, but they do exist
 
hi aber...tnx for ur input...i will try to get hold of other AE students but its summer still so i guess ill wait until first week to add..ty again
 
Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...
Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'
Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
