Books with title Mechanical Engineer

Engineers use math and science to design, build, and help things that move. They utilize specific laws of physics and motion that apply to every object on the planet. These laws cover things like force and motion, density and pressure, and dimensions and measurements. For more information on engineers, read Robert Fulton: Engineer of the Steamboat, another book in the Mission: Science series.

The seventh edition of Mechanical Engineering Design marks a return to the basic approaches that have made this book the standard in machine design for over 40 years. At the same time it has been significantly updated and modernized for today's engineering students and professional engineers. Working from extensive market research and reviews of the 6th edition, the new 7th edition features reduced coverage of uncertainty and statistical methods. Statistics is now treated (in chapter 2) as one of several methods available to design engineers, and statistical applications are no longer integrated throughout the text, examples and problem sets. Other major changes include updated coverage of the design process, streamlined coverage of statistics, a more practical overview of materials and materials selection (moved to chapter 3), revised coverage of failure and fatigue, and review of basic strength of materials topics to make a clearer link with prerequisite courses. Overall coverage of basic concepts has been made more clear and concise, with some advanced topics deleted, so that readers can easily navigate key topics. Problem sets have been improved, with new problems added to help students progressively work through them. The book has an Online Learning Center with several powerful components: MATLAB for Machine Design (featuring highly visual MATLAB simulations and accompanying source code); the "FEPC" finite element program, with accompanying Finite Element Primer and FEM Tutorials; interactive FE Exam questions for Machine Design; and Machine Design Tutorials for study of key concepts from Parts I and II of the text. Complete Problem Solutions and PowerPoint slides of book illustrations are available for instructors, under password protection. A printed Instructor's Solutions Manual is also available, with detailed solutions to all chapter problems.

This book is written for the young who want to prepare for a technical career or others who may want to broaden their horizons. It is written in an easy to understand step-by-step style and contains more pages of illustrative examples than pages of text enabling the reader to better understand the subject matter. At the end is a twenty question quiz should this book be used for class room study or for the challenge or enjoyment of other readers. A wide range of engineering topics are discussed starting with fundamental issues such as engineering materials, drawings, fasteners, couplings, belts, and pulleys. It then provides more in depth discussions on gears, bearings, shafts, and automotive power transmission. It concludes with a discussion on engineering patents featuring an example of an actual automotive patent application submitted by the author and approved by the U.S. Patent Office.

Drew is an android. From the very beginning of her existence, she has been programmed by her creators to understand her superiority and overwhelming responsibilities. She was created for a mission, a mission more important than anything she could ever have imagined.Drew is sent to a high school to observe the humans and report back to her creators. But when she begins to form friendships with these humans and starts feeling strange human emotions, she doubts the creators’ ways of dealing with her and wonders whether her mission is as wonderful as it once seemed.As Drew falls deeper and deeper into the mystery surrounding her mission and her creation, she’s suddenly left with a choice. Does she follow through with what she’s known all her life or does she act on what she now knows is right?Mechanical Trilogy1. Mechanical2. Perfect3. Flawed (coming fall 2013)

Have you ever ridden a bike? Do you lock your door? When it is hot out, do you enjoy the cool inside due to air conditioning? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you have used a product or system designed and developed by a mechanical engineer. Everywhere around you, you encounter the work of mechanical engineers-- any product or system you use that contains moving parts, is likely to have begun with a mechanical engineer, or a team of engineers including a mechanical engineer, as they designed the product and developed the process for producing it.With constant advancement of new products and machinery used to create such products, mechanical engineers are at the forefront of technological changes. They design, analyze and manufacture systems and products, and develop processes used to make products that are a part of people's lives. Innovation and technology create exciting possibilities for the mechanical engineering field and those who work in the field--
