The untimely death of my uncle‚ who was very close to me‚ because of illness and poverty shocked me to such an extent that I once decided to drop out of the school and to help support the family. But my parents did not allow me to do so. Illiterate as they were‚ they nonetheless understood that "Education is the key‚" and were anxious to put this key in my pocket‚ in spite of all their difficulties. With the growth of age‚ I now have a much clearer sense of purpose for my life

The current process of sequentially comparing 114 inch foot scale transparent drawings for each system over a light table adds significant cost to many projects and can add significant duration. Improving the coordination process for mechanical‚ electrical‚ and plumbing (MEP) systems on complex buildings and light industrial projects presents a major opportunity to improve project performance through increased integration. Coordination involves defining locations for branch components

MAJOR: MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. “The important thing is not to stop questioning‚ because curiosity has its own reasons for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity‚ of life and of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery everyday” -Albert Einstein. Yes! It is quite true that with proper nurturing of this curiosity one can transform a fascination into an excellent mechanical faculty

Mechanical energy Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. Mechanical energy can be either kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential energy (stored energy of position). Introduction: We use a system consisting of two weights hanging at each end of a thin thread lying over a wheel. A photo gate is placed so that the light is interrupted by the spokes of the wheel. The data are recorded electronically and this makes it possible

Samuel Haynes English 1101 – Mechanical Engineering Professor Raymond October 15‚ 2012 ME At the start of the Industrial Revolution‚ in the 18th century the steam engine was first produced. From this production it gave an enormous start to all machinery of any type and every type. As a result‚ a new major classification of engineering was formed due to the intuition of machines and tools being developed. Soon after this‚ the Institution of Mechanical Engineers was founded in Birmingham‚ England

However to me this machine is responsible for sparking an interest in how things work. My love for practical sciences‚ in addition to my innate fascination with technology used for practical and real purposes‚ has enabled me to discern my love for mechanical engineering. As a chubby 11 year old‚ I remember sitting glued to Discovery channel. An episode of the show ‘How it’s made’ featured the process used to create a gumball machine. Awestruck I learnt about the intricate parts that made this miraculous

Sound is a vibration that spreads across a medium (i.e.‚ air or water) as a mechanical longitudinal wave formed by pressure. A Mechanical longitudinal wave can also be called compression wave as it generates compressions and rarefaction when traveling through a medium. (Sound Is a Pressure Wave - Physics Classroom) The amplitude of a sound wave is the difference between the pressure of the undisturbed air and the maximum pressure caused by the wave. The Speed of sound deviates with the temperature

engineer. I am interested in SIUE’s Mechanical Engineering program. Mechanical Engineering is an exciting career field. In my youth‚ I was constantly designing and building an assortment of contraptions out of LEGO’s and K’NEX pieces. These objects included rollercoasters‚ cars‚ buildings‚ tractors‚ and many other machines. Growing up on a farm‚ I have always been interested in agriculture. There are many reasons why I’m interested in the Mechanical Engineering program at SIUE. This program
