ME 149: Mechanical Measurements

The Mechanical Measurement experiments course introduces undergraduates to modern experimental methods in solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, and thermal sciences. A key feature of several of the experiments will be the integration of solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer principles, so that students gain an appreciation for the interplay among these disciplines in real-world problems.
Terms: Spr | Units: 3

ME 191: Engineering Problems and Experimental Investigation

Directed study and research for undergraduates on a subject of mutual interest to student and staff member. Student must find faculty sponsor and have approval of adviser.
Terms: Aut, Win, Spr, Sum | Units: 1-5 | Repeatable for credit

ME 191H: Honors Research

ME 203: Design and Manufacturing

ME203 is intended for any graduate student, from any field of study, who may want the opportunity to design and prototype a physical project of meaning to them. Undergraduate mechanical engineering and product design students should register for ME103. Students are asked to discover a product with meaning to them; develop a point of view which motivates a redesign of that product; manufacture a series of models, multiple candidates, including sketches, product use stories, rapid prototypes, CAD documents, manufacturing test models, and finally a customer ready prototype. Each student will physically create their product using Product Realization Lab resources, and also redesign their product for scaled manufacturing to develop a knowledge of manufacturing processes, design guidelines, materials choices, and the opportunities those processes provide. The student's body of work will be presented in a large public setting, Meet the Makers, through an inspirational portfolio which shares and reflects on their product realization adventure.

ME 206B: Design for Extreme Affordability

Design for Extreme Affordability (fondly called Extreme) is a two-quarter course offered by the d.school through the School of Engineering and the Graduate School of Business. This multidisciplinary project-based experience creates an enabling environment in which students learn to design products and services that will change the lives of the world's poorest citizens. Students work directly with course partners on real world problems, the culmination of which is actual implementation and real impact. Topics include design thinking, product and service design, rapid prototype engineering and testing, business modelling, social entrepreneurship, team dynamics, impact measurement, operations planning and ethics. Possibility to travel overseas during spring break. Previous projects include d.light, Driptech, Earthenable, Embrace, the Lotus Pump, MiracleBrace, Noora Health and Sanku. Periodic design reviews; Final course presentation and expo; industry and adviser interaction. Limited enrollment via application. Must sign up for ME206A and ME206B. See extreme.stanford.edu. Cardinal Course certified by the Haas Center

ME 214: Designing for Accessibility (CS 377Q)

Designing for accessibility is a valuable and important skill in the UX community. As businesses are becomeing more aware of the needs and scope of people with some form of disability, the benefits of universal design, where designing for accessibility ends up benefiting everyone, are becoming more apparent. This class introduces fundamental Human Computer Interaction (HCI) concepts and skills in designing for accessibility through individual assignments. Student projects will identify an accessibility need, prototype a design solution, and conduct a user study with a person with a disability. This class focuses on the accessibility of UX with computers, mobile phones, VR, and has a design class prerequisite (e.g., CS147, ME115A).

ME 218C: Smart Product Design Practice

Lecture/lab. Third in the series on programmable electromechanical systems design. Topics: inter-processor communication, communication protocols, system design with multiple microprocessors, architecture and assembly language programming for the PIC microcontroller, controlling the embedded software tool chain, A/D and D/A techniques. Team project. Lab fee. Limited enrollment. Prerequisite: 218B.
Terms: Spr | Units: 4-5

ME 220: Introduction to Sensors

Sensors are widely used in scientific research and as an integral part of commercial products and automated systems. The basic principles for sensing displacement, force, pressure, acceleration, temperature, optical radiation, nuclear radiation, and other physical parameters. Performance, cost, and operating requirements of available sensors. Elementary electronic circuits which are typically used with sensors. Lecture demonstration of a representative sensor from each category elucidates operating principles and typical performance. Lab experiments with off-the-shelf devices. Recommended Pre-requisites or equivalent knowledge: Physics 43 electromagnetism, Physics 41 mechanics, Math 53 Taylor series approximation, 2nd order Ordinary Diff Eqns, ENGR40A/Engr40 or ME210, i.e. some exposure to building basic circuits

ME 225: Scaling Up

Scaling Up is intended for design and engineering-oriented students who anticipate or have an interest in launching products. Where the cousin of this class, ME219, is an overview of fabrication and factory systems, this course explores how to go from vision to reality, and from parts to products. We'll explore the systems that enable us to design and produce high-quality products, at scale, at reasonable prices, including quality systems, supply chains, and different ways of conveying intent to factories. Students will acquire a professional foundation in the business of manufacturing through readings, in-class discussion, and roughly one-a-week team projects.

ME 236: Tales to Design Cars By

Students learn to tell personal narratives and prototype connections between popular and historic media using the automobile. Explores the meaning and impact of personal and preserved car histories. Storytelling techniques serve to make sense of car experiences through engineering design principles and social learning, Replay memories, examine engagement and understand user interviews, to design for the mobility experience of the future. This course celebrates car fascination, and leads the student through finding and telling a car story through the REVS photographic archives, ethnographic research, interviews, and diverse individual and collaborative narrative methods-verbal, non-verbal, and film. Methods draw from socio-cognitive psychology design thinking, and fine art; applied to car storytelling. Course culminates in a final story presentation and showcase. Restricted to co-term and graduate students. Class Size limited to 16.
