High Pressure Die Cast (HPDC) tooling requires venting channels to be incorporated into their design to allow air to escape during the casting process. The channels must also manage the flow of metal ...

When designing helical or compression springs, you’ll confront several challenges and trade-offs, especially when it comes to getting the best possible performance from the wire. You will want to use ...

A spring-energized mechanical seal refers to the force used to maintain the seal face and the mating ring in close contact, which is supplied by a mechanical spring device. This device can be a wave ...

The Senior Design program in mechanical engineering builds on our lab-based, hands-on curriculum to provide students with “their first job,” a project supplied by companies and entrepreneurs. These ...

Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) is an analytical technique used for measuring the modulus (stiffness) and damping (energy dissipation) characteristics of materials that are deformed due to periodic ...

Senior Design is an engineering capstone design experience organized by Design Center Colorado (DCC) and completed by all mechanical engineering undergraduate students in their final year of study.
