Riassunto

This textbook is designed for the standard senior design course offered in all Mechanical Engineering departments. It covers design and problem solving methodology that are essential to engineer. The overall goal of this text is to define compelling universal method one must use to solve problems in design. The author will present practical real world examples which illustrate how utilization of this method will lead to better engineered designs.

Billy V. Koen is Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin and a fellow of both the American Nuclear Society (ANS) and the American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE). He has received fifteen awards for teaching excellence, including the W. Leighton Collins Award, (the ASEE's highest honor for pedagogy), and the ASEE Centennial Medallion for his lasting impact on the field of engineering education. He is a pioneer in the application of artificial intelligence to nuclear reactor reliability and the introduction of self-paced teaching strategies in engineering education. He has written more than 125 technical publications and has contributed to numerous textbooks and engineering journals. Included in his body of work is the classic treatise, "Definition of the Engineering Method," published by the ASEE in 1985.
