ENGG 367 Heat Transfer in Hyperthermia
(Cannot be used to satisfy any A.B. requirements)
Offered: arrange
Review of coordinate systems, energy conservation equation, and temperature and
heat-flux boundary conditions. Capillary blood perfusion as a distributed heat sink.
Summary of distributed heat-flux sources associated with one or more of the following:
internal and external radio-frequency, ultrasound, and microwave applicators. Surface
cooling. Steady-state analytic and numerical solutions to practical problems in one
and two dimensions. One or more of these advanced topics: transient responses,
large blood vessels as discrete heat sinks, approximate solutions in three dimensions,
lumped approximations to distributed systems.
Prerequisites: ENGS 23, ENGS 156, and permission of instructor
Instructor: Trembly
ENGM 387 M.E.M. Professional Skills
(Cannot be used to satisfy any A.B., B.E., M.S., or Ph.D. degree requirements)
Offered: 10F, 11W: arrange
This course develops professional skills required for professional success during
and after the M.E.M. program. Skills acquired provide a basis for success in pursuing,
securing and performing an internship and a post-graduation job. In a series of
workshops conducted through fall and winter, the course targets career self-assessment,
ethics, interpersonal, and communication skills. Homework assignments provide
practice and feedback for skills learned. ESL (English as a Second Language) support
is offered as needed in the context of written and speaking activities of the course,
and may continue through the end of winter term.
No prerequisite
Instructors: Staff
ENGG 390 M.E.M. Project
Offered: arrange
An individual engineering project to be completed during any term of the final year
of an M.E.M. program. The project should define a practical need and propose a
means to satisfy it, display an ability to conceive and evaluate solutions, describe
appropriate analytical, experimental, and economic evaluations, and provide
recommendations for further action. Projects will normally either have an industrial
context or will be related to a specific design objective within a research program at
Thayer School.
Prerequisites: ENGM 178 or permission of instructor
Instructors: Graves, Santos
