No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1968–69 to 1968–69 (before that, 1963–64 to 1964–65 used the number for Analysis and Synthesis of Machines); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Statistical considerations in factors of safety and tolerances. Effect of manufacturing errors on product performance.
As printed in the 1968–69 calendar, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
Requirements, as last listed
Prerequisite: ME 22.

Another title: Analysis and Synthesis of Machines, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).
Principle of optimum design, optimizing for minimum cost, maximum power capability, minimum weight, effects of manufacturing errors on product performance, statistical consideration for the factor of safety, optimum design of machine elements; torsion shafts, beams, gears, etc. Fluctuating loads, impact forces. Analog methods. Prerequisite: ME 22.
