Well first, do you mean Product Life Management? If so, what skills does an Engineering Technologist have to do this? The discipline that best suits this would be a System Engineer, which actually has its own math and science which is beyond what an Engineering Technologist would have...

If you are ever in NYC check this place out http://momath.org/ I'm planning to take my kids there this summer. Well, we can go on with different philosophies’ of teaching our kids math and science; however, I can give my observation of how the math / science charter school my daughter goes to...

In short, amplification, if you want to get deeper, understand transmissibility. Tobalcane "If you avoid failure, you also avoid success." “Luck is where preparation meets opportunity” "People get promoted when they provide value and when they build great relationships"

Rconnor, please take all of my post’s tone as two people sitting in a bar with drinks having a great conversation. With that said, I do believe that the teachers do put their own spin on how to make the subject come alive and not come across in a monotone way. I’m sure they are doing what...

I am privileged that I have a daughter in a Math and Science Charter school and before that I was looking into STEM programs so I have some knowledge of what their curriculum is composed of. Both the charter school and STEM programs have art and history as part of their program, so I’m not sure...

Well two things. My apologies that I had my units wrong where gc should have been lbm ft / lbf s^2 and had lbm and lbf reversed in my statement where as lbm is constant and lbf is different. I quickly wrote this post before going to a meeting. Tobalcane "If you avoid failure, you also avoid...

Well let’s get to the units. Lbm is different from Lbf on other planets and it depends on the gravitational constant. For earth, it is conveniently gc=32 (lbm s^2)/(lbf ft) thus old Newton equation will be lbf =(lbm g)/gc. Thus on earth it will be Lbm = Lbf Tobalcane "If you avoid failure...

I’m not allowed to open files, but maybe you have a “singularity” at the curve? Tobalcane "If you avoid failure, you also avoid success." “Luck is where preparation meets opportunity” "People get promoted when they provide value and when they build great relationships"

My first job 8 months after graduation was a “Field Engineer”, which was really a glorified technician job. And then, 9 months later, after intensive job fair networking and interviews, I’ve finally landed a Mechanical Engineer position at a large company. I say take the job and treat it as a...

To add, with your business background coupled with ME degree, you may also be qualified for a Manger position. Tobalcane "If you avoid failure, you also avoid success." “Luck is where preparation meets opportunity” "People get promoted when they provide value and when they build great...

Most of the time, you have to customize your resume to answer the bulleted requirement and proficiency list that the company posted in their job advertisement. If coming from a different field, this may be difficult. You will have to find out what skills can be transferable from your previous...

Btrueblood is right…. If I understand your problem, you will have to first calculate out the max principle stress and then figure out either Soderberg line or Goodman line. A few iterations of this will get the radius you need. This can turn into a science project fast. I see you’re new here...

The best way to learn is when you start designing, makes sure the machinist is part of your approval loop. Trust me, you will get feedback and learn the wrong way and the right way to make the part. Tobalcane "If you avoid failure, you also avoid success." “Luck is where preparation meets...

What do you mean by mathematical analysis, as in using math from arithmetic up to calculus? If you are then, within Mechanical Engineering, you should look into the specialty of being an analyst in the field of structure, dynamics, and thermal. And when I say analyst, I don’t mean a FEM...

FEA is a tool and not the subject matter. Just like a hammer is a tool to a carpenter to build houses. Learn how to build houses before learning how to swing the hammer. I would suggest that you learn the subject matter first. If it is modal analysis, you should delve into dynamics both in...

To add to Mike’s post, if you can learn one field of engineering, other fields should not be a problem. Plus this is an example of above and beyond expectations of your responsibilities. This is good experience to add as bullet once you go for review and hopefully get a nicer raise or...
