Hardware hacking can be extremely multidisciplinary. If you only know bits and bytes, but not solder and electrons, you’re limited in what you can build. The same is true for mechanical design, where ...

Advanced Engineering Solutions Improve Durability, Performance, and Operational Reliability of High-Precision Industrial Test Systems ...

Finite element modelling (FEM) has emerged as an indispensable tool for elucidating the intricate mechanical behaviour of wire ropes, whose helical architecture and multi-wire contacts give rise to ...

Theory of elasticity: elastic stability, principal of minimum potential energy, Raylegh-Ritz methods. Introduction to finite element methods of stress analysis: computer implementation and use of ...

When it comes to FDM 3D prints and making them stronger, most of the focus is on the outer walls and factors like their layer adhesion. However, paying some attention to the often-ignored insides of a ...

Utilize advanced techniques to evaluate structures. Advanced analysis is necessary for structures that are complex, exhibit finite deformations, are loaded beyond their first yield point, or ...

Finite Element Methods for solving problems with material and geometric nonlinearities; transient dynamics analysis with explicit and implicit time integration, partitioned methods, and stability; ...

Professor of Mechanics, Washington University, St. Louis, Mo. It's easy to construct finite-element models with errors. And it's just as easy to correct them, when you know how. The first step in a ...

Mechanical engineers design, build and test the systems and machines we use daily. If you choose to study mechanical engineering at UW, you’ll study the foundations of energy conversion, materials ...
