Bio

Dr. Pervaiz received his Ph.D. in Production Engineering from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden in 2015. While pursuing his Ph.D., Dr. Pervaiz has worked on a Swedish Industry (Accu-Svenska AB) supported project for the development of an advanced minimum quantity cooling lubrication (MQCL) system to facilitate the sustainable and environment friendly machining of aeronautic titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V). His current research interests are in the general area of design and manufacturing, including different advanced topics such as sustainable manufacturing, metal cutting, energy efficient machining, machinability improvement of difficult-to-cut materials, development and optimization of custom made cutting tools and computer aided designing/ manufacturing etc.

Currently Teaching

ISEE-304
3 Credits
This course provides the student with an overview of structure, properties, and processing of metals, polymers, ceramics and composites. There is a particular emphasis on understanding of materials and the relative impact on manufacturing optimization throughput and quality as it relates to Industrial Engineering. This course is delivered through lectures and a weekly laboratory.
MECE-103
3 Credits
This basic course treats the equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies under the action of forces. It integrates the mathematical subjects of calculus, vector algebra and simultaneous algebraic equations with the physical concepts of equilibrium in two and three dimensions. Topics include concepts of force and moment, friction, centroids and moments of inertia, and equilibrium of trusses, frames and machines.
MECE-104
3 Credits
This course combines the elements of Design process, Computer Aided Design (CAD), and Machine Shop Fabrication in the context of a design/build/test project. You will learn how to work in a team and use a formalized design process to justify and support design choices, how to use a CAD package to create three-dimensional models and assemblies, and how to safely fabricate metal parts using vertical mills and lathes.
MECE-200
4 Credits
Statics: equilibrium, the principle of transmissibility of forces, couples, centroids, trusses and friction. Introduction to strength of materials: axial stresses and strains, statically indeterminate problems, torsion and bending. Dynamics: dynamics of particles and rigid bodies with an introduction to kinematics and kinetics of particles and rigid bodies, work, energy, impulse momentum and mechanical vibrations. Emphasis is on problem solving. For students majoring in industrial and systems engineering.
MECE-305
3 Credits
This course provides the student with an overview of structure, properties, and processing of metals, polymers, and ceramics. Relevant basic manufacturing processes and materials selection is also discussed. There is a particular emphasis on steels, but significant attention is given to non-ferrous metals, ceramics, and polymers
MECE-499

Nominally three months of full-time, paid employment in the mechanical engineering field.
MECE-570
3 Credits
The overall objective of this course is to provide students the exposure of traditional and non-traditional manufacturing processes which include casting, thermoforming, sheet metal forming, machining, polymer processing, joining, additive manufacturing, and more. Students will learn how to apply the basic properties of materials to manufacturing analysis and product design within an economic framework from lectures and projects.
