Engineering

The design, analysis, and / or construction of works for practical purposes. One who practices engineering
is called an engineer, and those licensed to do so have formal designations such as Professional Engineer or
Chartered Engineer. Engineers use imagination, judgment, and reasoning to apply science, technology,
mathematics, and practical experience. The result is the design, production, and operation of useful objects
or processes. The broad discipline of engineering encompasses a range of specialized subdisciplines that
focus on the issues associated with developing a specific kind of product, or using a specific type of
technology.

Mechanical Engineering

Field of Engineering concerned with the design, construction, and operation of Machinery. Mechanical
Engineers work in many branches of industry, including transportation, power generation and tool manufacture.
Achievements in Mechanical Engineering include the development of wind and water turbines, steam engines, and
internal combustion engines.

Mechanical - Engineer ‘ s Job

To provide a complete solution in his area of work by Using optimum Men, Material, Machine, and Money for the
comfortable and reliable products to the human society. Faster change of product design for the comforts of
the human kind, Leeds to often bottle neck situation to engineers particularly to face the competition,
delivery, and quality. In recent years it is so happened that the product Conception and the Retirement
become shorter, so any product gets absolute with in the shorter period of time. The industries expected to
delivers the products with latest version in shorter time to sustain in the competitive market. The Design
and Manufacturing process changes radically to meet more small quantity of more customized product to give
feeling of customer’s special attention. Hence yesterday comforts become today’s basic need. Days are gone
out just casually “Throwing the Product design” for the manufacturing and then for the society use.

Ram Govind Institute of Technology, Koderma

Prof. Er. Alok Kumar Spoke :

MECHANICAL engineers must have the ability to work methodically and logically to solve problems. It is also
important that they view their work objectively.

Modern Analysis and Design Processes in mechanical engineering are aided by various computational tools
including finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD) , computer - aided design (CAD)
/ computer - aided manufacturing (CAM) and
Failure Modes & Effect Analysis (FMEA).

MECHANICAL engineers are also expected to understand and be able to apply basic concepts from chemistry,
chemical engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, and physics. Most mechanical engineering
programs include several semesters of calculus,
as well as advanced mathematical concepts which may include differential equations and partial differential
equations, linear and modern algebra, and differential geometry,
Among others.

MECHANICAL engineers strive to optimize cost, increase productivity, durability, safety, and overall
usefulness of objects. This process can be as simple as the design of a chair for comfort or as complex as
the optimization of a turbocharged engine for many criteria, such as fuel consumption and power output. It
can be as small as the cutting of a nano-sized gear or as large as the assembly of a supertanker used to
carry oil around the world.

MECHANICAL engineering discipline that involves the application of principles of physics for analysis,
design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. It requires a solid understanding of key
concepts including mechanics, kinematics, thermodynamics and energy. Practitioners of mechanical engineering,
known as mechanical engineers, use these principles and others in the design and analysis of automobiles,
aircraft, heating & cooling systems, manufacturing plants, industrial equipment and machinery, medical
devices and many more……….
