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

theories involving light. Of these‚ the wave-particle duality is arguably the most strange and noteworthy concept in the field. Throughout history‚ some physicists have argued that light behaves as a wave‚ such as Christiaan Huygens and others‚ such as Isaac Newton have proposed that light consists of particles (Wave-Particle Duality‚ March 2010). Today‚ as stated in the wave-particle duality‚ light is said to exhibit wave-like and particle-like properties. And still today‚ physicists are troubled by

Mechanical Engineering History of Mechanical Engineering Engineering in one form or another is among the oldest of professions. The Egyptian pyramids are examples of ancient engineering feats and many of the bridges‚ roads and aqueducts constructed by the ancient Romans are still use today. Engineers were originally simply builders who worked with stone and other basic materials. They were either self-taught or learned their craft from more experienced workers. The military operations

Metallic element gives up valence electrons to the nonmetallic elements. Attractive forces from positive and negative ions Ceramic materials: high melting temperatures‚ hard‚ poor conductors Covalent Bonding Electrons are shared between adjacent atoms resulting in stable electron configurations. Many nonmetallic elemental molecules are covalently bonded. Polymeric materials have this bond. Crystal Structure Describe the crystal structure using an array of points or lattice.

“SMART MATERIALS” ABSTRACT The world has undergone two materials ages‚ the plastics age and the composite age‚ during the past centuries. In the midst of these two ages a new era has developed. This is the smart materials era. According to early definitions‚ smart materials are materials that respond to their environments in a timely manner. The definition of smart materials has been expanded to materials that receive‚ transmit or process a stimulus and respond

Bhopal Union Carbide Ethical Dilemma Many ethical issues are raised by the situation that occurred in 1984 at the Union Carbide Corporation plant in Bhopal‚ India. The most important is the moral and ethical duty to preserve and protect human life. Union Carbide’s management‚ both in the United States and India failed to sufficiently protect its employees‚ the surrounding communities and environment from harm while operating its plant. It appears that the safety procedures at the plant were
