So you think you know about the mechanical engineering field? You know how to read and interpret an engineering blueprint, right? Well, let’s find out. Take this quick quiz to see how much you really know.
Despite the immense capabilities of hydraulics presented in terms of moving higher loads and in other industrial utilization, pneumatics are still in wide use today. The article discusses some applications and advantages of pneumatics in industry.
Grinding pastes are used for controlled removal of metal, polishing, and fitting applications. They are used in various applications like fuel injector and exhaust valve overhaul, globe valve overhaul, and threading and tapping applications, among others...
Mechanical workshop safety rules are important to follow because workshop rules and regulations not only ensure worker safety but also bring efficiency to the work process. Safety guidelines, fire precautions, and general work rules ensure that a symmetrical...
Using Routh’s rule and the integration method, we can evaluate the moment of inertia of a body having mass and area. We can further implement methods for finding the moment of inertia for rods and flat surfaces.
The 1990s were a time of globalized growth in which science and technology saw notable growth. The decade brought some of the greatest scientific findings and technological inventions in human history.
Observing safety norms is important because it not only brings work into order but also saves time and increases efficiency. System safety analysis and risk assessments are covered under the design safety guidelines enabling engineers to produce quality...
Two surfaces in contact, no matter how much smooth they may appear to be, pose some frictional force across their surfaces. Here we try to present a comprehensive explanation regarding this phenomenon occurring every day and everywhere in our life.
Force may be defined as an agent which generates or has a tendency to generate a motion and in some occasions “kills” or "tends to kill” a motion. Here, we investigate more about force and methods of calculating the resultant of...
The article explains the conditions required for a set of forces acting over a body to come under equilibrium, during which the body remains stationary even under the influence of the forces. We will also discuss methods for calculating this phenomenon...
