What is Mechanical Engineering?
Mechanical Engineering is the profession
related to the study and use of machines.
•
Machines range from automobiles to the human body
•
Machines require power (
thermodynamics, combustion
)
•
Machines pollute (
air pollution control
)
•
Machines move, so their motion must be understood, both
by itself (
kinematics
) and in the surrounding air (
fluids
)
•
Machines must be constructed (
manufacturing
)
•
Machines have to be made from something (
materials
)
•
Machines make heat that has to be removed (
heat transfer
and fluid mechanics
)
