As a scientific discipline, applied mechanics derives many of its principles and methods from the Physical sciences (in particular, Mechanics and Classical Mechanics), from Mathematics and, increasingly, from Computer Science. As such, Applied Mechanics shares similar methods, theories, and topics with Applied Physics, Applied Mathematics, and Computational Science. As an enabling discipline, applied mechanics has [...]

The history of this school can be traced back to 1936. In 1936, Zhejiang University founded a sub-department about aeronautical engineering under the Department of Mechanical Engineering. 1945, the physicist and educator Mr. FAN Xuqi (范绪箕) further foundered the Department of Aeronautical Engineering, and was pointed to the first director of the department. 1952, the [...]
Thus the often-used term body needs to stand for a wide assortment of objects, including particles, projectiles, spacecraft, stars, parts of machinery, parts of solids, parts of fluids (gases and liquids), etc. Other distinctions between the various sub-disciplines of mechanics, concern the nature of the bodies being described. Particles are bodies with little (known) internal [...]
The advances in computing and miniaturization technologies have made possible an increasing use of unmanned devices to do routine work once done by man. Most repetitive precision and rule-based work can now be automated using sophisticated robotics.
There used to be a time when robotics was associated with huge players in the business such as the a …
In general, a robot is a programmable contraption, a machine that mimics the actions, thinking and even appearance of a human. And it is generally agreed that to qualify being called a robot, the contraption must do two things:
Mechanical engineering is something that you must have seen in a brochure if you are looking for a degree for your college life. It must have sparked your imagination but cannot really fathom the immense richness and diversity of this program.
Mechanical engineering is a position that is vital to the industrial economy in the United Kingdom and around the world.
Aerospace firms throughout the world have sought out an increasingly higher educated workforce to keep them on the cutting edge of the industry. Professional positions in engineering, design, and management at aerospace firms throughout the world require at least a first degree in their field of work.
