MSE-211: Organic chemistryThis course provides a basic foundation in organic
chemistry and polymer chemistry, including chemical nomenclature of organic compounds and polymers, an understanding of chemical structures, chemical reaction mechanisms, as well as methods of organic and ...
MSE-437: Polymer chemistry and macromolecular engineeringKnow modern methods of polymer synthesis. Understand how parameters, which determine polymer structure and properties, such as molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, topology, microstructure can be controlled by proper choice of polymerization me ...
MSE-431: Physical chemistry of polymeric materialsThe student has a basic understanding of the physical and physicochemical principles which result from the chainlike structure of synthetic macromolecules. The student can predict major characteristics of a polymer from its chemical structure and molecular ...
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) ...
MSE-425: Soft matterThe first part of the course is devoted to the self-assembly of molecules. In the second part we discuss basic physical chemical principles of polymers in solutions, at interfaces, and in bulk. Finally, we look at colloids and emulsions. ...
MSE-214: Materials engineering IAn introduction to the processing-microstructure-property relationships of polymers and metals. The objectives of the course are to understand a) basic behaviors of polymers and metals and b) how to select materials for components relevant in microtechnolo ...
PHYS-441: Statistical physics of biomacromoleculesBiological macromolecules such as DNA, RNA, proteins and cytoskeletal filaments are polymers. As such, they share a set of properties that are common to any polymer, which are the focus of this course. Details about the protein folding problem will be cove ...
MSE-101(a): Materials:from chemistry to propertiesCe cours permet l'acquisition des notions essentielles relatives à la structure de la matière, aux équilibres et à la réactivité chimique en liaison avec les propriétés mécaniques, thermiques, électriques et magnétiques des matériaux. ...
EE-580: Introduction to the design of space mechanismsSpace environment is different from what we can experience on Earth, requiring specific design approaches in order to achieve reliable operations. Engineers must hence face new challenges stimulating their creativity to tackle those particular constraints. ...
PHYS-202: Analytical mechanics (for SPH)Ce cours propose une introduction à la mécanique analytique. Il introduit les formalismes lagrangien et hamiltonien, en insistant sur leur capacité à simplifier la description des systèmes contraints, des symétries et des lois de conservation. Il présente ...
