Mechanical Engineering Mechanical engineers design and develop everything you think of as a machine - from supersonic fighter jets to bicycles to toasters. And they influence the design of other products as well - shoes, light bulbs and even doors. 6/14/2016 Ricky Jones Lucas Ivanovic Kevin Russel

Mechanical Engineering Studies Statics: How are forces transmitted to and throughout a structure? Dynamics: What are the velocities, accelerations and resulting forces for a system in motion? Kinematics: How does a mechanism behave as it moves through its range of motion? Strength of Materials: Is the component strong enough to support the loads? Is it stiff enough? Materials Science: Which material has the optimum properties? Thermodynamics : How does energy get converted to useful power? What are the losses? Fluid Mechanics: What is the pressure drop due to the fluid flow? What are the aerodynamic drag forces? Heat Transfer: How do you calculate heat transfer rates from temperature data? How do you predict the temperature distributions? Manufacturing: What manufacturing processes do you select? Machine Design: How do you synthesize all of the above? Electrical Circuits: How do you integrate electronic controls into your design? Laboratory Methods: How do you make and interpret both thermal and mechanical measurements? Vibrations: How do you predict and control vibrations? Engineering Economics: How do you estimate manufacturing costs?

Engineering is Growing The total number of engineers employed in the U.S. in 2009 was roughly 1.6 million. Of these, 239,000 were mechanical engineers (14.9%), the second largest discipline by size behind civil (278,000). The total number of mechanical engineering jobs in 2009 was projected to grow 6% over the next decade, with average starting salaries being $58,800 with a bachelor's degree. The median annual income of mechanical engineers in the U.S. workforce was roughly $74,900. This number was highest when working for the government ($86,250), and lowest in education ($63,050).

Mechanical Engineering in the work place we are experiencing premature wear on bearings in one of our pull stations. In the following slides we will demonstrate an example of how mechanical engineers are used to provide a solution to this problem.
