EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING IN AUSTRALIA BEFORE MECKERING AND AFTER NEWCASTLE by Charles Bubb BE‚ DIC (Eng. Seis.)‚ FIEAust‚ CPEng SUMMARY Earthquake Engineering in Australia‚ as elsewhere‚ has been formulated in the aftermath of damaging earthquakes. The first Australian Code AS2121-1979 was written and published after the 1968 Meckering WA earthquake. The second AS1170.4 1993 was published after the 1989 Newcastle NSW earthquake. Good quality Building Codes are a necessary basis for sound earthquake

Introduction Career in mechanical engineering involves grappling with various aspects of the technical and practical work. The job of a mechanical engineer involves widespread handling of machines and components which have a direct relation with power by producing it‚ transmitting it or even making use of power. The major concern of mechanical engineers is bent towards ways and mechanisms through which natural energy sources are converted into uses of practical nature. As part of their work‚ mechanical

Mechanical Engineering | | Career Focus | What is a Mechanical Engineer? A Mechanical Engineer is concerned with the design‚ planning and development of machines and equipment ranging from jet engines to minute instruments used in medicine and surgery. The Mechanical Engineer is also responsible for organising their means of production. The Mechanical Engineer has been involved with many things we take for granted such as the car‚ dishwasher‚ central heating and even the humble paperclip

have inspired humanity as much as aerospace engineering. Many of the technological advances that are now part of our daily lives‚ such as handheld calculators and non-stick pans‚ were initially developed to aid in space flight. Today’s aerospace engineers are still working to help us view the edges of the universe as well as improve the way that we live our lives right here on planet earth.” (Peterson’s staff) This quotation proves that Aerospace engineering has changed the world for the better.

is so important in developing software systems‚ software engineers have chance to do good‚ cause harm‚ or to allow others to do bad things. To ensure that they work for the good side‚ software engineers must commit themselves to making software engineering a beneficial and respected profession. In the software world‚ like in ethical world‚ if a good belief exists‚ such as everything will be perfect‚ things can fall completely on the other side. People think‚ and make different decisions‚ but understanding

“A scientist discovers that which exists. An engineer creates that which never was.” It was this quote by Theodore von Karman in my high school physics book that sparked my interest in engineering. Engineering allows for the designing and constructing of structures that most people could only dream of but they could not live without. From bridges spanning oceans to connect countries to artificial islands on which building complexes can provide housing for thousands of people. This notion is what

Musa Siddique Professor Hunter EDUC 1300 April 25‚ 2013 Aerospace Engineering Aerospace or Aeronautical Engineering‚ is one of the most advanced and difficult forms of engineering. The roots of aeronautical engineering can be traced to the early days of mechanical engineering‚ to inventors’ concepts‚ and to the initial studies of aerodynamics‚ a branch of theoretical physics. The earliest sketches of flight vehicles were drawn by Leonardo da Vinci‚ who suggested two ideas for sustentation
