Mining disaster in the past have been referred to mining accidents claiming five or more lives. Mine disasters once were really common. In the single year of 1907 there were 18 coal mine disasters.. Among the disasters in 1907 was history’s worst the Monongah coal mine explosion‚ which claimed 362 lives and impelled Congress to create the Bureau of Mines. I will discuss this disaster more later in this paper. Mine accidents have declined dramatically in number and severity through

Since mechanical engineering isn’t taught in high school‚ young students don’t know much about it. Can you describe mechanical engineering? Mechanical engineering is by far the most broad-based branch of engineering. Most high school students associate the field with auto mechanics‚ but that’s an enormous misconception. Mechanical engineers today are concerned with the design‚ development and manufacture of a variety of energy conversion and machine systems. Those systems include aerospace‚ automotive
