Hard engineering refers to the construction of physical structures to defend against erosive power of waves To protect a coast from erosion‚ people have built seawalls in front of a cliff or along the coast. A seawall is usually made of concrete. It acts as a buffer and absorbs energy of breaking waves especially during storms where the waves are strong‚ thus protecting the coast. A seawall shields and protects the coast from the direct impact of the incoming waves‚ thus reducing erosion. However

this machine is responsible for sparking an interest in how things work. My love for practical sciences‚ in addition to my innate fascination with technology used for practical and real purposes‚ has enabled me to discern my love for mechanical engineering. As a chubby 11 year old‚ I remember sitting glued to Discovery channel. An episode of the show ‘How it’s made’ featured the process used to create a gumball machine. Awestruck I learnt about the intricate parts that made this miraculous machine

Mechanical engineering is a discipline of engineering that applies the principles of engineering‚ physics and materials science for analysis‚ design‚ manufacturing‚ and maintenance of mechanical systems. It is the branch of engineering that involves the production and usage of heat and mechanical power for the design‚ production‚ and operation of machines and tools.[1] It is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines. The engineering field requires an understanding of core concepts

Engineering is defined as the science based profession by which the physical forces of nature and the properties of matter are made useful to mankind in the form of structures‚ machines‚ and other products or processes at a reasonable cost of money and time. An engineer is a person trained or skilled in designing and planning the performance of such equipment as machines and structures and in supervising their performance. An Environmental (or sanitary) Engineer is concerned with

Jordan Peacock Ms. Givens English 12 Engineering Essay October 10‚ 2014 Engineers In modern society engineers are an important asset. They keep machines running‚ help construct buildings‚ and keep our world running. Without engineers life as we know it would be completely different. There are different aspects of engineers like the different types and there career outlook for the future. Two types of engineers are civil engineers and mechanical engineers. Our society constantly needs more of them

Studying electrical engineering technician/technology gives you lots of opportunities of having Variety of career choices. Finishing the three years program at Algonquin college allows you to take many different paths in life. For example‚ you can become an electrical engineering technician which allows you to be a solar energy technician after. On the other hand‚ these two jobs have many differences which make comparing between them possible. First‚ electrical engineering technicians are

Theme : Electrical Sector and Chemical Engineer a) “The Chemical Engineer – His Role in Electrical Manufacturing” by N.R. Maleady The article is about the role of chemical engineer in manufacturing transformers in the electrical manufacturing sector. The important components of the transformer are copper wire‚ cellulosic insulation‚ insulating varnish and dielectric liquid. Wire enamel or resin is the insulting structure for copper wire. The resin can either applied as a solution or in solventless
