随着近些年来申请美国留学的人数的不断增加，申请美国留学机械工程专业的人数也在不断的增加之中，那么对机械工程专业来说，研究的方向都有那些呢?本文澳际留学专家为大家带来美国机械工程专业研究生的五个方向，希望你能对机械工程专业研究生方向有一定的了解，详情如下。

 

1)BiomechanicalEngineering (BME) Program 生物机械工程

The Biomechanical Engineering (BME) Programhas teaching and research activities which focus primarily on musculoskeletalbiomechanics, neuromuscular biomechanics, cardiovascular biomechanics, andrehabilitation engineering. Research in other areas including hearing, ocean,plant, and vision biomechanics exist in collaboration with associated facultyin biology, engineering, and medicine. The Biomechanical Engineering Programhas particularly strong research interactions with the Mechanics andComputation and the Design groups, and the departments of FunctionalRestoration, Neurology, Radiology, and Surgery in the School of Medicine.

生物机械工程学首要的是研究肌肉骨骼，神经肌肉，心血管工程方向以及相关复原工程。在其他领域包括听力、海洋、视力等生物力学存在于与生物，工程，以及医学等。生物机械工程学与流体物理学和计算工程有很强的相关性。同时与包括骨骼恢复，神经病学，放射学，外科医学等相关。

2)Design Group总成设计

The Design Group emphasizes cognitive skilldevelopment for creative design. It is concerned with automatic control,computer-aided design, creativity, design aesthetics, design formanufacturability, design research, experimental stress analysis, fatigue andfracture mechanics, finite element analysis, human factors, kinematics,manufacturing systems, microcomputers in design, micro-electromechanics systems(MEMS), robotics, and vehicle dynamics. The Design Group offers undergraduateand graduate programs in Product Design (jointly with the Department of Art andArt History) and is centrally involved in the founding of Stanford s new HassoPlattner Institute of Design.

总成设计注重于创造性设计。侧重于自动控制，计算机辅助设计，创造性，设计美学，可造性设计，试验压力分析，设计研究，机械磨损以及损耗，有限的元素分析，人为因素，产业体系，微电子系统，机器人，车辆动力学等。总成设计部为本科生和研究生提供产品设计(与艺术设计学院是联合项目)项目，并且属于斯坦福普拉特纳设计学院的核心开发项目。

3)流体物理学和计算工程(FPCE)

The Flow Physics and ComputationalEngineering Group (FPCE) is developing new theories, models, and computationaltools for accurate engineering design analysis and control of complex flows(including acoustics, chemical reactions, interactions with electromagneticwaves, plasmas, and other phenomena) of interest in aerodynamics, electronicscooling, environment engineering, materials processing, planetary entry,propulsion and power systems, and other areas. A significant emphasis of FPCEresearch is on modeling and analysis of physical phenomena in engineeringsystems. FPCE students and research staff are developing new methods and toolsfor generation, access, display, interpretation and post-processing of largedatabases resulting from numerical simulations of physical systems. Research inFPCE ranges from advanced simulation of complex turbulent flows to active flowcontrol. The FPCE faculty teaches graduate and undergraduate courses inacoustics, aerodynamics, computational fluid mechanics, computationalmathematics, fluid mechanics, combustion, and thermodynamics and propulsion.

流体物理学和计算工程用于发展新理论，模型，计算机化的工具来做复杂的空气动力学，电子冷却，环境工程，材料加工等的精确设计，.电子加速器，推进与能量系统和其他领域。一个明显的有关(FPCE)研究的是建模与分析工程系统中的物理现象。(FPCE)的学生以及科研人员开发出新的方法和工具用来计算生成，进入，展示，混成，后期处理等统计于物理系统的数值模型的数据库。(FPCE)的研究延伸至对仿真的紊流进行控制。FPCE的老师教授研究生和本科生声学，空气动力学，计算流体力学，计算数学，流体力学，燃烧学，热力学和动力学等。
