Prereq: 540.403 This senior year âcapstone designâ course is intended to give some practice and experience in the art of engineering design. Students working in teams of two to four will select a small-scale, industry-suggested design problem in the area of small production equipment, light machinery products, or manufacturing systems and methods. A solution to the problem is devised and constructed by the student group within limited time and cost boundaries. Preliminary oral reports of the proposed solution are presented at the end of the first semester or sooner. A final device, product, system, or method is presented orally and in writing at the end of the second semester. Facilities of the Engineering Design Laboratory (including machine shop time) and a specified amount of money are allocated to each student design team for purchases of parts, supplies, and machine shop time where needed.

Biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids consist of thousands of atoms. Whereas crystallographic data of these molecules provide baseline information on their threedimensional structure, their biological function can depend to a great extent on mechanical characteristics such as conformational flexibility. In this course, we will examine numerical methods for modeling shape fluctuations in large biomolecules using coarse-grained elastic network models. The course will consist of lectures, reading papers, and performing computer projects. No prior knowledge of biochemistry or molecular biology is required.
