Call for nominations for Senate Secretar
No date: CS695 Thesis in Data Science
This course for students wishing to complete a thesis for the MS in Applied Data Science and Data Analytics program. It is intended to be elected twice for the completion of the research for and the writing of the thesis
No Date: CS482 Machine Learning
CS 482 (Machine Learning) only needs CS 102 (data structures) as a pre-requisite
No Date: CS385 Introduction to Game Design
CS 385 is an elective course that had a separate lab section from the classroom lecture, but these are being integrated into a lecture only with exercises embedded into the classroom experience rather than being provided in a separate lab section
Use of Computational Tools for Structural Analysis and Design Modification of Automobile Seat-Rail Structures under Various Operating Conditions
Automotive seating rail structures are one of the key components in the automotive industry because they carry the entire weight of passenger and they are the holding structure for the seating foams and other assembled important components such as side airbag and seatbelt systems. The entire seating is supported firmly and attached to the bottom bodywork of the vehicle through the linkage assembly called the seat rails. These seat rails are adjustable in their longitudinal motion (front and back) which plays an important role in giving the passengers enough leg room to make them feel comfortable. Therefore, seat rails under the various operating conditions, should be able to withstand the complete weight of the human with the seating structures, other assembled parts of the seating, and functional requirements such as strength, stiffness, and crash safety which are important to avoid or minimize injuries to the occupants.
Keeping the above requirements in view, research has been carried out as a part of graduate thesis work at xxx University. The main theme of the work presented in this is poster covers numerical simulation aspects of the seat rails under different loading and positional operating (front and back) conditions using SolidWorks CAE tool. The various aspects covered in this work include structural (stress and deflection) and vibration (frequency) analyses, and durability (fatigue life) studies. Steel, aluminum, and multi-materials have been used, and a quantitative comparison made to see the benefits of using multi-materials on the performance aspects of the swat rail as stated previously. Based on these studies, a slightly modified seat rail design to increase the fatigue life, decrease the damage percentage, increase the resonant frequencies, and increase the amount of absorbed crush energy is proposed. The final learning outcomes of this research include a better understanding of CAD modeling, and how best to utilize the analysis features of the chosen CAE tool in the design of a seat rail structure

A Numerical Method for Processing GPR Data
One of the main challenges in processing GPR data is the accurate evaluation of time intervals between signals that are sent and reflected. Small errors in the length of these intervals generate large errors in the thickness of the layers because of the high propagation speed of electromagnetic waves. In this thesis, a new approach for numerical calculation of the time interval between two signals is proposed. Instead of finding the distances between the maxima points of signals, we calculate the distances between the centroids of the signals. The numerical experiments conducted in this thesis show that this new approach provides considerably higher accuracy in finding the layer thickness
