Buildings can produce less greenhouse gas emissions while being more energy efficient, comfortable, healthy, and economical through the proper application of sustainable design, construction and operation principles. In this course, students are introduced to environmental issues associated with buildings as well as concepts of performance indicators. Also, students are exposed to the fundamental knowledge of modeling methods and simulation tools used in performance-based building design, and operation. This sets the ground for an in-depth discussion of performance prediction for energy demand and the use of building simulations in life cycle analysis for the selection of energy-efficient building components and systems.

COURSE DESCRIPTION: This is a 3-unit half-year elective course on intermediate to advanced level conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer directed towards graduate students and undergraduate upperclassman audiences. This course also serves as one of the required subjects of the qualifying exam for Ph.D. students in the Mechanical Engineering Department. Heavy course load is to be expected. Three major topics are to be discussed in this class. They are: 1. Steady and unsteady 1D and multidimensional conduction heat transfer. 2. Laminar/turbulent forced and natural convection heat transfer of internal and external flows with additional focuses on boiling and condensation phenomena. 3. Radiation heat transfer for black, gray diffuse, and gaseous bodies. Our discussions for each of the topics are to be directed towards two directions: 1. Classical mathematical and analytical techniques. 2. Modeling and approximation methods. Active class participation and discussions are greatly encouraged. 1. To understand the underlying physics and mechanisms governing the conduction, convection, and radiative heat energy transfer processes in general engineering systems from a macroscopic continuum point of view. 2. To acquire the classical mathematical tools and techniques required in analyzing conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer problems. 3. To develop physical intuition and insights towards heat transfer problem solving so that general complex engineering heat transfer problems can be described by simple physical models and solved with minimum mathematical efforts, i.e., “back of the envelope calculations.” College of Engineering Main Campus Engineering Mathematics, Elementary Thermodynamics, Elementary Heat & Mass Transfer Huang, Hsin-Fu 40 Thursday 7,8,9 ME5150 (522EU3740) 3 (College of Engineering) Graduate Institute of Mechanical Engineering,

This course provides a fundamental knowledge of dynamics, including kinematics and kinetics of particle, system of particles, and rigid bodies in planar and three-dimensional motion. A systematic approach, namely vector analysis and modeling procedure (VAMP), is introduced to precisely describe linear and angular positions, velocities, accelerations, forces, and torques for generating a set of equations of motion, without missing any terms. Other modeling of energy equations, momentum equations, impact of particles and rigid bodies, and Euler equations* are also addressed. Not only are students trained to have the ability of modeling dynamic systems in terms of equations of motion, but they are also experienced with engineering insight of physical laws. (*optional) The primary goal of this fundamental course is to help students become knowledgeable engineers to describe dynamical systems in a systematic approach. On this foundation, students will be prepared to take intermediate dynamics, system dynamics, advanced dynamics, vibration, and structure dynamics. College of Engineering Main Campus Prerequisite: Calculus (differentiation and some integration).
Homework Assignments: examples plus problems with ending numbers 2 and 6, or specially assigned. It is not required to turn in homework, but the selected problems from homework are tested in quiz. Quiz 36% (each of 9%), Midterm 30%, Final 30%, Attendance 4%. Missed Exam: NO make-up exams will be given without the permission of the instructor. Only unusual and extenuating circumstances warrant a make-up exam. Warning: No grace points after final for any reason. Study Group: (2-3 members) Do your homework by yourself first, and discuss your solution with your team members once a week at least.

This course is a complete review of advanced quantitative methods in fisheries stock assessment.

Course covers introduction, decision analysis to evaluate alternative management actions, Bayesian state-space

modelling, Meta-analysis, Integrated analysis, and Spatial modelling in stock assessment Assessment models of

biomassdynamics model, age-structured production model, and integrated stock assessment model (e.g., Stock

Synthesis, SS) will be included. Student will be familiar with methods in fish population dynamics

and stock assessment (e.g.., Bayesian posterior distribution, Markov Chain Monte Carlo, state-space modelling, etc.)

and proficient in parameter estimation (e.g., unfished biomass, spawning biomass, MSY), as well as the uncertainty,

of an exploited fish population, and evaluation of harvest restrictions for fisheries management problems by using

various computer programs and tools (e.g., AD Model Builder [ADMB], WinBUGS/JAGS, SS).

The course draws examples from real fisheries in the world and provides student broad experiences of

various fishery data and fish biology. The course is primarily for students of fisheries and marine ecology,

but should also appeal to those interested in conservation ecology and advanced ecological modelling.
The main objective of the course was to become proficient with background and tools to conduct advanced stock assessment modelling for fisheries. Student will develop professional skills of data analysis, quantitative fish population modelling, and theory and implication of fish harvest management. Student will carry out fisheries data analysis, modelling, and interpretation on a regular basis throughout the course. The course expects student will develop their own model and application. Course will provide basic programming training by following the examples using Excel, R, ADMB, WinBUGS/JAGS.

This courses aims to provide students with general knowledge in the synthesis of biomolecules, which is applied either to prepare small molecules to probe target DNA/proteins, or to develop efficient methods to study biological questions. Therefore seven weeks are used to cover the synthesis, while the remaining is to talk about famous examples. Students who want to take the course need to pass the undergraduate course of organic chemistry (two semester courses with at least 2 hours per week). It is also recommended to have basic concept in biochemistry, at least to be aware of what are the structures of amino acids, nucleic acids and sugars.

Photochemistry is the branch of chemistry which treats the interactions between matter and photons of visible or ultraviolet light and the subsequent physical and chemical processes which occcur from the electronically ecited state formed by photon absorption. We will study the principles and applications of photochemistry and chemistry of excited organic molecules such as alkene, alkyne, benzene and its derivatives, oxygen compounds, nitrogen compounds, sulfur compounds, and dioxygen. The goal of this class is to understand the physical and chemical processes of photochemical reactions of organic molecules.
