Graduate course

MEG7037 Engineering from biology (생체모방공학)

This course gives an overview of non-conventional mechanical approaches inspired from nature and explains how this knowledge can lead to more creativity in mechanical design and to advanced (simpler, smaller, more sustainable) solutions than with conventional technology. The course discusses theoretical and empirical issues about biological systems having smart constructions and unusual mechanisms, and presents a number of technical structures and designs of biomimetic instruments. By the end of the course students should be able to: (i) understand how engineers borrow unprecedented ideas from nature; (ii) identify new possibilities for biomimetic design; (iii) learn how to read the current bioinspiration and biomimetics literature.

IGL5036 Advanced Engineering Vibration (진동공학특론)

This course concerns how we can model, analyze, design, and measure the responses of vibrating systems. We aim to provide you with a sound understanding of the fundamentals and knowledge of how to analyse vibration. This course includes selected topics in advanced vibration engineering: free/forced vibration, vibration and modal analysis basics, discrete/continuous system, etc. 

Undergraduate course

MEG3263 Theory of Vibration (진동공학) 

This course provides students with an introduction to the fundamental concepts of mechanical vibrations and covers transient and steady state vibration of single- and multi-degree of freedom systems. Free and forced vibrations of single and multiple degree-of-freedom mechanical systems, transient response, damping and vibration isolation. During this course students will gain an appreciation for harmonic motion as well as the modeling of mechanical systems. 

MEG2160 Dynamics I (동역학 I)

This course is an introduction to the dynamics of rigid bodies and multibody systems. Topics include: motion of a particle; motion of a rigid body; relative motion; kinetics of translation, rotation, and plane motion; work-energy methods; impulse-momentum methods; mechanical vibration.

MEG1270 Creative engineering design (창의적공학설계)

This course is designed to have the students work in a team environment to design an engineering system. It will foster creative thinking, diversified background exposure, teamwork, and communication and collaboration skills. Students will also be exposed to be held accountable for professional issues, standards, and practices not covered in other classes.
