ME-443: Hydroacoustique pour aménagements hydroélectriquesIntroduction aux phénomènes propagatifs dans les circuits hydrauliques, calculs de coups de béliers, comportement transitoires d'aménagements hydroélectriques, simulation numériques du comportement dynamique de turbines Francis, Pelton et Kaplan, et étude de la stabilité de ces systèmes
ME-484: Numerical methods in biomechanicsStudents understand and apply numerical methods (FEM) to answer a research question in biomechanics. They know how to develop, verify and validate multi-physics and multi-scale numerical models. They can analyse and comment results in an oral presentation and a written report.
ME-474: Numerical flow simulationThis course provides practical experience in the numerical simulation of fluid flows. Numerical methods are presented in the framework of the finite volume method. A simple solver is developed with Matlab, and a commercial software is used for more complex problems.
MSE-636(b): Scanning electron microscopy techniques (b)This intensive course is intended for researchers who envisage to use scanning electron microscopy techniques for their
research or who want to understand how to interpret SEM images and analytical results presented in scientific
publications.
ME-201: Continuum mechanicsContinuum conservation laws (e.g. mass, momentum and energy) will be introduced. Mathematical tools, including basic algebra and calculus of vectors and Cartesian tensors will be taught. Stress and deformation tensors will be applied to examples drawn from linear elastic solid mechanics.
MSE-234: Mechanical behaviour of materialsCe cours est une introduction au comportement mécanique, à l'élaboration, à la structure et au cycle de vie des grandes classes de matériaux de structure (métaux, polymères, céramiques et composites)
ME-462: Cavitation and interface phenomenaIntroduction, concepts de base; implosion d'une bulle de cavitation; dynamique des cavits attachées; cavitation dans les structures tourbillonnaires; applications industrielles.
BIO-692: Symmetry and Conservation in the CellThis course instructs students in the use of advanced computational models and simulations in cell biology. The importance of dimensionality, symmetry and conservation in models of self-assembly, membranes, and polymer/filament scaling laws reveals how cells exploit these principles in life.
