Mechanical Engineering Seminar
Purpose:
Students, in their junior year, have already studied English words and phrases typical to mechanical engineering. This course enhances the ability of quickly composing natural English sentences when needed. The students will make a presentation
of their self-introduction at first. The group discussion expects students to explain the problem statement, analysis, and how they will give a solution to the project. The course offers skills in discussing topics with foreign engineers and the output type assignment will enhance the students’ ability and attitude towards active discussion.
In the second part, a professor from the foreign country will provide some lectures on microfluidics. Microfluidics is the art of handling very small liquid volumes. This is driven by the possibilities offered by miniaturizing analysis and synthesis in chemistry and biotechnology. In typical microfluidic systems, liquids, mixtures or droplets are passed through networks of channels in dimensions of 0.1 mm or less. Here surface tension and electrical forces among other things become of primary importance. Through the four lectures the participants will be active in responding to questions and discussing topics. Suitable preparation for each lecture is to briefly review the pages from Tabelings’ book that is listed under each lecture.

Second part:
Lectures of fluid mechanics in small systems
- Lecture 1
Overview of basic fluid mechanics. The Navier Stokes equations in incompressible flows. Small Reynolds number flows.
- Lecture 2
Droplets and bubbles. Surface tension on a liquid interface. The physical origin of surface tension. Nondimensional numbers that characterize surface tension effects.
- Lecture 3
How surface tension can cause fluid flow, thermocapillarity and solutocapillarity. Wetting, i.e. how a droplet spreads over a dry surface.
- Lecture 4
Electric fields can drive fluid flows. Electrokinetics as a way to move fluids in microsystems.
成績評価方法
成績：
英語文章は、最終試験によって評価する。プロジェクトはグループ課題とし、最終発表会の成果と報告書によって評価する。
Grades:
Final exam will measure skills in composing English sentences. Projects will be pursued in groups and they will be graded by the final presentations and final reports. Attendance records a makeup exam, in case one misses the final presentation, also count.
