Mechanical engineering is a discipline of engineering that applies the principles of engineering‚ physics and materials science for analysis‚ design‚ manufacturing‚ and maintenance of mechanical systems. It is the branch of engineering that involves the production and usage of heat and mechanical power for the design‚ production‚ and operation of machines and tools.[1] It is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines. The engineering field requires an understanding of core concepts

Theodicy as a term was originally coined in 1710 by a philosopher named Gottfried Leibniz in his work Essais de Théodicée sur la bonté de Dieu‚ la liberté de l’homme et l’origine du mal ("Theodicy Essay on the Benevolence of God‚ the Free will of man‚ and the Origin of Evil"). Theodicy‚ as defined by Webster’s Dictionary‚ is a “defense of God’s goodness and omnipotence in view of the existence of evil.” David Hume‚ in his Dialogues concerning Natural Religion‚ quotes Epicurus‚ a Greek philosopher

History of Differential Calculus Universidad Iberoamericana September 20‚ 2013 Ever since men felt the need to count‚ the history of calculus begins‚ which together with Mathematics is one of the oldest and most useful science. Since men felt that need for counting objects‚ this need led to the creation of systems that allowed them to maintain control of their properties. They initially did it with the use of fingers‚ legs‚ or stones. But as humans continued developing

numerical tasks such as the abacus have existed since antiquity‚ aiding in computations such as multiplication and division. Blaise Pascal designed and constructed the first working mechanical calculator‚ Pascal’s calculator‚ in 1642.[3] In 1673 Gottfried Leibniz demonstrated a digital mechanical calculator‚ called the ’Stepped Reckoner’.[4] He may be considered the first computer scientist and information theorist‚ for‚ among other reasons‚ documenting the binary number system. In 1820‚ Thomas de Colmar

16th century German philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz is often credited as being the first philosopher to posit the principle known as the Identity of Indiscernibles (Loemker 1969: 308). This principle states that if x has exactly the same properties as y‚ then x is identical to y. An interesting consequence of this principle arises from the implication that no two objects have all of their properties in common; as such an implication suggests that perfect duplicates cannot exist. Perhaps the

Archimedes of Syracuse (pronounced ar-ka-meed-eez) He is considered one of the greatest mathematicians in history. In fact‚ he is believed to be one of the three greatest mathematicians along with Isaac Newton and Carl Gauss. His greatest contributions to mathematics were in the area of Geometry. Archimedes was also an accomplished engineer and an inventor. He was believed to have been obsessed with Geometry though. Archimedes was born in Syracuse‚ Greece in 287 BC and died 212 BC after being

Can Science Explain Everything? There are many facts today that are known to be true that science hasn’t been able to account for. Scientists are still very active in their search to prove some of the puzzling questions that remain unanswered. In Elliot Sober’s work‚ Can Science Explain Everything‚ he addresses that controversial question. Sober thesis claims to prove that when science attempts to explain events‚ and does so by describing its causes‚ it will never find answers to global why-questions
