Courses
I teach courses related to the mechanical behavior of materials.
On the undergraduate level I teach the courses:
- Introduction to the Finite Element Method (Purdue University course number ME 489), a senior level course with lectures and a lab section.
On the graduate level I teach two courses which are offered both on campus as well as online via Purdue University Professional Engineering Education:
- In the course Micromechanics of Materials (ME 559) students study concepts for the analysis of heterogeneous materials including but not limited to composites, honeycombs and foams, as well as damage.
-
In the course Computational Fracture Mechanics (ME 650) students study advanced methods for the simulation of crack propagation processes under a range of loading conditions for brittle and ductile materials.
