Essays on Mechanical Engineering

Tech giants and carmakers have poured massive amounts of money and effort into developing cars that can drive themselves. But before Google, Tesla, Uber and others can persuade humans to share their streets with bots, they have to prove this technology ‒ although definitely still...

When you consider the fate of mechanical technology, your underlying contemplations are likely a long way from the kitchen, and maybe encourage far from planning new suppers. However this propelled innovation is entering each edge of our lives, and robots are rising as developing piece...

A steering system is a collection of components and linkages, which allows vehicles (car, bicycle, motorcycle) to follow the desired course. Its main purpose is to allow the driver to guide the vehicle. There are two main types of steering systems: Mechanical Power Mechanical: This...

Harry Beck’s diagrammatic map was an engineer and Underground employee, who charted the way we commute. Under the appointment, Frank Pick, Beck in 1933, devised a diagrammatic map of the London underground system that ignored geographical distances and instead presented an elegant, geometrical structure, which...

Simple machines are devices for applying a force. They make work easier by allowing us to push or pull over increased distances. A simple machine is the simplest device that performs work. A simple machine applies a single force to a single load and generally...

It was during my job I observed that a lot small and medium-size industries tend to over optimize their designs without adding design simulation to the workflow. In such a scenario an engineer will design a product with decisions based on applicable hand calculations, historical...

Mechanical Engineering is a discipline concerned with the application of knowledge in solving real-world problems. Study of calibration techniques is considered as one of the most crucial topics in the field of engineering as it links accuracy as well as quality in instruments thus providing...

In this chapter, I will discuss about the German mechanical industries in context of industry 4.0. For the case study, I have chosen VDMA and its member companies. These member companies have provided their solution and illustrated their specific character for industry 4.0. Industry 4.0...

A quadcopter is an aerial vehicle that uses four rotors for stabilized flight. Unlike most aerial vehicles, the quadcopter is capable of achieving vertical flight in a much stable condition. The quadcopter does not face issues of torque that are generally faced by helicopters. More...

A machine utilizes capacity to apply powers and control development to play out an expected activity. Machines can be driven by creatures and individuals, by characteristic powers, for example, wind and water, and by synthetic, warm, or electrical power, and incorporate an arrangement of components...

The geometrical parameter of a coating as its roughness exerts a key effect on the mechanical integrity of the coating. Exact estimation of roughness is therefore critical for the assessment of any coating. Surface roughness describes the morphological highlights on a genuine surface. Any genuine...

The growing concern about the oil prices and the environmental protection against emissions have made the auto makers move towards alternative lightweight materials like Al and Mg as a replacement for regular steel and cast irons. Due to the strict laws imposed on the regulation...

The success and outcome of this project required a lot of guidance and assistance from many people and we were extremely privileged to have got this all along our project journey. All that we have done is only due to such supervision and assistance. It...

This assignment is about different types of testing such as: Tensile testing; Rockwell Hardness testing and Dye penetrant testing of various metals as: Brass; Mild steel; Aluminium; Stainless Steel and Carbon Steel as well as their results. What is Destructive Testing and Non-Destructive testing? With...

I am Yevhenii Mormul and my home town is Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine. Meaning of my name comes from Greek and stands for noble. I was informed about your university on DEC. com university exhibition and your representative informed me about your Mechanical Engineering Bachelor course. Through...

I stand by the quote by a famous actor Seam Hampton – “A dream without ambition is like a car without gas you’re not going anywhere,” which always cranks up my engine and drives me through my dream path. My fascination towards machines and thirst...

As the standard of living in India has increased, most of the families have at least one vehicle, typically car to move easily and quickly. With the increment of the number of cars on the road, the number of cars problem due to tire failure...

Pipelines play an important role in delivering fluids such as drinking water, sewage water, oils, and gases. Many a times inconvenience is caused by deterioration of pipe, corrosion, crevice, and other damages which leads to a loss of the transported medium and can also affect...

Myself Idris Mohammed Gora, had completed my 10th grade with 89. 05% and 12th grade with 84. 61% in science stream from MMP High School affiliated with Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board. After that I had completed my graduation in Mechanical Engineering with...

Introduction Traditionally high temperature in cutting zone has been controlled by using cutting fluid. The cutting fluid helps to improve the surface finish as well as to facilitate chip flushing. It performs both coolant and lubricant function simultaneously. The coolant effect reduces temperature in cutting...

You probably don’t give much thought about tow trucks on a daily basis until vehicle gets in an accident or breaks down on the road. You may feel frustrated but know that help is on the way to recover your vehicle and transport it to...

Animatronics is a multi-disciplinary field which integrates anatomy, robots, mechatronics, and puppetry resulting in lifelike animation. It involves the use of mechatronics to create machines which seem animate rather than robotic. This project depicts a microcontroller based robotic hand controlled by hand gesture. The project...

Pipeline plays a vital role in modern civilisation as it provides the needed fuels for sustaining imperative functions such as power generation, heating supply, and transportation. The cost of installing underwater pipelines is a significant factor in the economics of offshore natural-gas exploitation. Proper design...

INTRODUCTION The console is the part that creates a interaction bridge between human and machine. The Console assembly comprises of the HMI (Human machine interface) and the console shell. The Console shell is the part on which the HMI part gets mounted. The HMI (Human...

CNTs are long cylinders of covalently bonded carbon atoms which possess extraordinary electronic and mechanical properties. There are two basic types of CNTs: single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) which are the fundamental cylindrical structure and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) which are made of coaxial cylinders, having...

Installation the liner Installation method of the high-density polyethylene liner can be passed through into the existing pipe by using two techniques. However, sometimes both techniques are required in together to speed up the project steps. The pushed and pulled techniques are the most common...
