Course Description

This course exposes students to the engineering, safety, and socio-economic context of nuclear energy. It explores the technical, industrial, social, economic, and environmental issues related to nuclear energy and the interplay of the many technical (and economic and social) issues that arise in the use of nuclear energy. Students analyze, with the aid of appropriate simplifications, the economics of nuclear energy generation.

Course Description
In this course, students learn the theory of mechanics and electromagnetism for computing engineering systems like MEMS (Micro/nano electro Mechanical Systems), which are used daily in several electronic devices. The emphasis of this course is on a theoretical understanding of problems in continuum mechanics and electromagnetism, as well as their computations. Participants understand and apply the theory of electromagnetism for deformable bodies by using open-source codes in Python (programming language) and simulate physical systems using their own laptop.

Course Description
With dwindling energy resources, environmental impact of fossil fuel utilization and concerns on energy security, sustainability has gained increasing importance. In fact, modern society relies on stable and inexpensive energy supply and renewable energy is a significant component of the new energy mix. The course tackles energy conversion, utilization and storage for renewable technologies such as wind, solar, biomass, fuel cells and hybrid systems. Thermodynamics concepts, including the first law and the description of the various forms of energy, will form the basis for identifying, analyzing and modeling renewable energy systems. The course also touches upon the environmental consequences of energy conversion and how renewable energy systems can be used effectively to mitigate global climate change.

Course Description

In the study of physiology and anatomy, the course explores how organs are built and how they work together. The building stones of the human body (bone, articular cartilage, ligaments, tendons, muscles, blood, and body fluids) are described and situated in the context of students' previous knowledge of mechanics and solid mechanics. Concepts like constitutive equations and evolution laws are applied to biological material, like bone, where effects from mechanical loading on the inner structure are modeled. The architecture of the skeleton and the apparatus of locomotion are described as a mechanical system where the bones are coupled together in joints and the activity in the muscles controls the movements.

Course Description

This interaction between actors in the energy market creates opportunities to use energy more efficiently and reduces the environmental impact of the energy system. It is therefore important to be able to understand the limitations and possibilities of the components and to optimize their usage within the energy system. This course provides engineering expertise regarding energy processes and components within energy systems, and provides the tools needed to argue, judge, and evaluate possible solutions. Prior knowledge of thermodynamics is required.
