Throughout this series of courses we will examine a number of exciting design case studies, including the material selection of a total hip implant, the design and testing of the wing on the 777 aircraft, and the impact of dynamic loads on the design of a bolted pressure vessel.\nIn this first course, you will learn robust analysis techniques to predict and validate design performance and life. We will start by reviewing critical material properties in design, such as stress, strength, and the coefficient of thermal expansion. We then transition into static failure theories such as von Mises theory, which can be utilized to prevent failure in static loading applications such as the beams in bridges. Finally, we will learn fatigue failure criteria for designs with dynamic loads, such as the input shaft in the transmission of a car.\n","id":"DL 0025M","format":"Online","instructor":[],"admin":""},

It is for learners that have heard about \"user experience\" or \"user interface\" design but don't really know much about these disciplines.\nThe course mantra is that “Design is a systematic and data driven process.” Design is systematic because it is based on a set of techniques and also on a cycle of discovery.\nIn this course the learner is introduced to the four step user interface design cycle. Along the way learners are exposed to a set of techniques to gather information about a) what the user needs b)how to design and model interfaces based on these and then how to evaluate the design to ascertain that the user's goals are met. These techniques are tools that are used in a standardized manner and give us the data we use in our design.\nThis means that anyone (regardless of their current training) that is willing to learn these techniques and follow the proposed cycle can be a UX designer!\n","id":"DL 0022M","format":"Online","instructor":[],"admin":""},

Up to five independent readings on soil response are collected in a single sounding, particularly the tip stress, sleeve friction, porewater pressure, time dissipations and downhole shear wave velocity. Interpretative methods are reviewed for obtaining a suite of soil parameters and properties often required in geotechnical analyses, especially numerical modelling simulations. The usefulness of the small-strain shear modulus (Gmax), obtained from field shear wave measurements, is documented as an initial state parameter, representing the beginning of all stress-strain-strength curves (drained, undrained, static and dynamic). Numerous case studies are interwoven to show the general applicability of the approaches in soil behavior, as well as direct applications to full-scale foundation response.","id":"CIVE 2001P","format":"Classroom","instructor":[],"admin":"Paul Mayne, Ph.D."},

Since site-specific information is required for each particular structure, an emphasis is made on the use of geotechnical in-situ testing for a rational and proper assessment of the ground, particularly strength and stiffness.This course reviews analytical procedures for the evaluation of shallow foundation systems (spread footings, structural mats/rafts) and deep foundations (driven piles, augered and bored piles, drilled shafts). Methods cover ultimate bearing capacity from limit plasticity solutions and load-displacement behavior as represented in the framework of an elastic continuum solutions, whereby soil stiffness is represented by an equivalent modulus (Es) and Poisson's ratio. For deep foundation systems, additional considerations for evaluating side resistance are examined by total stress analysis, effective stress approach (ß method), and offshore methods. Additional topics include load transfer distributions, full-scale load testing, installation effects, pile group interaction effects, pile dynamics, as well lateral- moment and uplift-tension loading.

Topics include diving equipment, diving physiology, dive planning, environmental considerations, and recognizing and managing risks associated with Open Water diving.Participants who successfully complete the classroom and pool work will qualify for an Open Water certification experience, which must be taken separately and is not included in the course fee. Successful completion of the Open Water experience will result in an industry recognized and accepted certification at the level of Open Water Diver. Must be 10 or older.The Scuba 1 program consists of 15 hours of traditional lectures and 15 hours of pool training sessions. The goal of this program is to prepare a dive student for the required Open Water certification experience. Students who opt for participating in the online PADI Open Water Diver eLearning program will be required to pass a Quick Review at the completion of that program. The Quick Review will be coordinated and proctored by one of our staff instructors. eLearning students are encouraged, but not required, to also attend classroom lectures. However, an eLearning student who scores less than 75% on the required Quick Review is then required to take the full 50-question final examination which follows the traditional lecture program. The lecture program may more fully prepare students to take the final exam.It is important to note that the eLearning option incurs an extra cost that is paid directly to PADI. This added component allows for flexibility of schedules if knowledge development requirements are met as noted above. eLearning students who affiliate with Georgia Tech should expect to also pay the course costs as published for the traditional Scuba 1 program.","id":"REC 1100P","format":"Classroom","instructor":[],"admin":"Jim Consuegra"},
