COURSE PRE-REQUISITE: |
ENGR 210 - Dynamics |
|
COURSE OBJECTIVES: |
In order to satisfactorily complete this course, students must demonstrate the ability to solve technical problems involving fluid statics as well as steady-state and accelerating fluid flows in pipes and in open channels. Students must also develop an understanding of boundary layers, laminar and turbulent flow, dimensional analysis and similitude. |
|
HOMEWORK: |
The attached course syllabus provides details of daily reading assignments and homework problems for the entire semester. Homework problems are due at the beginning of the class meeting following the date on which the problems are assigned and are to be completed in the format of the attached sample homework problem. HOMEWORK PROBLEMS ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THIS COURSE. STUDENTS CANNOT REASONABLY EXPECT TO DEVELOP THE NECESSARY SKILLS IN THIS COURSE UNLESS THE HOMEWORK PROBLEMS ARE COMPLETED AS SCHEDULED. IN ORDER TO ASSESS STUDENTS’ TIMELY COMPLETION OF ASSIGNED WORK, HOMEWORK PROBLEMS WILL BE COLLECTED AT RANDOM, AND FOR THIS REASON IT IS NECESSARY TO BRING ALL HOMEWORK SOLUTIONS TO EACH CLASS MEETING. HOMEWORK OFFERED FOR LATE SUBMISSION WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AND A FAILING MARK WILL BE ASSIGNED FOR THAT WORK. |
|
TESTS: |
Periodic tests will be administered as scheduled in the attached course syllabus. |
|
ATTENDANCE: |
Students should not expect to succeed in this course without attending class regularly. Attendance will be recorded for each class meeting, and availability of the instructor’s help outside of class will be determined by students’ attendance at class. That is, students who decide not to attend class need not expect to be tutored outside of class by Asst. Prof. May. Absences will be considered unexcused unless the students demonstrates acceptable evidence of a compelling reason for absence. Acceptable excuses for absence include a doctor’s written excuse, subpoena for court appearance, family emergency, or evidence of some other unforeseeable circumstance. MORE THAN FOUR UNEXCUSED ABSENCES MAY RESULT IN A GRADE OF "F" FOR THE COURSE. |
|
SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES: |
If you have a learning or physical disability which might affect your performance in this class, it is your responsibility to contact the USC-Aiken Office of Disabled Student Servies as soon as possible. Once an evaluation has been made, appropriate accommodations will be determined. The Office of Disabled Student Services is located in Room 116 of the Administration Building, telephone 641-3317. |
|
COURSE GRADING: |
Numerical grades will be assigned to all tests and to the final examination. |

Grades for this course will be evaluated as follows: |
|
|
Homework |
15% |
|
Tests |
50% |
|
Final Exam |
35% |
In determining the grade for each exercise (homework, tests, final examination), neatness, penmanship, spelling, sentence structure and an orderly, step-by-step problem solution will be primary considerations. Approximately 10% of each grade will depend upon these factors.
