As briefly stated, during the past 5 years, I first started as an FEA and stress analysis responsible for design and engineering of the de-oiling units, but soon I got promoted to a senior mechanical engineer that became involved in different aspects of project execution, such as clients relationship, fabrication supervision, quality control, R&D and commissioning/start up support. In the last two years, due to the financial turmoil in the oil and gas market, I have been involved in budgeting…
around are asking many questions such as why the train was going more than double the speed limit? Was the train speeding because of the engineer driving, or was there a malfunction with the speedometer so he was unable to tell the actual speed he was going at the time? One would think that someone could feel the sudden acceleration of the train. If the engineer was aware of his speed at the time he should have began to slow down because he was approaching a curve. Taking a curve at a slower…
mechanical engineer generates technical drawings and is sometimes signified as a drafter or draftsman. Drafting has generally existed as a two-dimensional process, but computer-aided design (CAD) programs now permit the engineer to produce in three dimensions. Guidelines for producing a part are usually fed to the appropriate equipment, both manually, and programmed commands, or via the utilization of a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) or merged CAD and CAM programs. Also, an engineer has the…
so as gas leaked towards the surface. The pipes also had a valve preventing the gas from traveling upwards, which didn't worked properly. The next mistake was a misinterpretation of a pressure test 50 minutes before the explosion, which led the engineers to believe the well was in performing conditions when it really wasn't. When the crew finally…
The types of engineers that will be most helpful will be the software engineers and electrical engineers because we have lots of electrical components to our artificial intelligence and holograms. Software and computer engineers will be helpful because they have to design the interface for the A.I. to work. The computer engineers are for any damages to the system so they can fix it. We used holograms to encourage elderly…
part of the residential homes (Institute of Transportation Engineers). Shared streets are designed to create a safe space that brings the community together (Department of Transport). Another design goal of shared streets is the residential priority over motor vehicles. The street can contain comfort objects like chairs and tables for residents, and have parking locations for the cars traveling through (Institute of Transportation Engineers). The design of the shared street will allow for…
That was the power of direct modeling. The company set out to integrate the direct modeling technology with the parametric functionality of Pro/ENGINEER. After accomplishing this successfully, the company decided to rebrand the product like to reflect the fact PTC could now enable both direct and parametric modeling. The new solution set, PTC Creo, was first introduced in 2010. One of the big game…
what is the focus of this and all similar analyses is whether such decisions should have been made regardless of the end result. That is, are these actions the moral ones. One such party that looked back and found themselves at fault are the engineers at Thiokol. A man who worked for Thiokol at the time, Bob Ebeling, even going as far as to say…
industry. Over the past two years, I have been an active part of the 30 member structural engineering group in New York City, a team that challenges me to be a more collaborative and thought-provoking individual. Working with a team encompassing engineers from four continents and 16 countries has produced an intense, high impact environment that relentlessly produces fresh and cutting-edge solutions. I have adopted this mantra and through working on the landmark Manhattan West development,…
Jackson received a offer to work as an engineer names Kazimierz Czarnecki. In the 4-foot by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel, a 60,000 horsepower wind tunnel. Czarnecki offered Mary a hands on experience conducting experiments in the facility, and he eventually suggested that she enter a training program that would allow her to earn a promotion from mathematician to engineer. Trainees had to take…
