Designing or analyzing something starting from its directly observable components (top level) progressively downward in increasing detail to the smallest/hidden components (bottom level) that actually make the structure function. Sometimes called a system decomposition.
The opposite is bottom-up structure.
Which metal or ore is heavier silver gold titanium or iron?
I list them in order of heaviest to lightest:Gold, Silver, Iron, Titanium. Gold has no ore and ores are always less dense than the metal.
What is ductile to brittle transition temperature of steel?
It varies. Firstly, it's only present in ferrittic steels like carbon steel, not in most kinds of stainless. Secondly, it depends on the grain size of the steel microstructure, with smaller grains giving a lower transition temperature. The third factor is alloying elements. Silicone and Nickel content tends to raise transition temperature.
With modern steels the transition temperature is about -60 degrees celcius. Older steels may have a transition temperature at room temperature, or, more often, at 0 or -10 degrees.
Which engineering course is the broadest engineering course?
I think civil is a
broader field. There are so many
areas one could eventually wind
up speciallizing; surveying/GIS,
structural, marine, geotechnical,
water treatment/distribution,
highway & route design,
construction management,
graphical applications/DTM,
typical civil site design,
hydraulics/water resources,
industrial waste, solid waste.
Anything that is put on the
ground usually has some civil
engineering.
The most commonly used hydraulic fluids are oils, so yes they are flammable. However, most any fluid COULD be used as a hydraulic fluid depending on the system design requirements. So it really depends on exactly what type of fluid is being used whether it is flammable or not.
Water is a "hydraulic fluid" and is not flammable.
Under NFPA standards, petroleum-based hydraulic fluids are not "flammable" if their flash point is above 100o F (37.8o C); they would be "combustible". NFPA 1 (2009): 3.3.153.2 Definition of Flammable Liquid
What is a disadvantage and advantage of use an equation instead of a graph or table?
Advantage: Graphs provide a more visual representation.
Disadvantage: Equations are usually more accurate.
Switches, used mainly for situations such as sentry devices or outside lights. The generation of electricity by the photovoltaic cell when light is present.
Function of the engineering department in an organization?
basically methods department in Engineering is for assisting in manufacturing and assembly.it includes time and motion study,enhancing productivity,process standardisation,training shop floor members frequently,fmea and more.
What materails are in a rainforest house?
Adult toys for sure if you want to have then contact us at +91 9831491115
What happens when resistors are interconnected in a circuit?
The net resistance can be found out using the algebraic sums f series and parallel connections. When there is no current flowing in the circuit the net resistance is infinite.
What is the importance of computer in engineering field?
Computers are widely used in the field of engineering. Computers help us to monitor and process data to the system. You can monitor and control your system from your station (over the network) automatically. Examples i.e. Oil Refiners, Gas LNG, Satellite etc.
What is the difference between a mechanic and a body shop?
Mechanics fix the internal workings of a car (engine, transmission, brakes, ect.), and a body shop repairs and paints the outside of a car.(if you want your car a different color or you were in an accident, or maybe the car is old and eaten up with rust). Body shops may also do detailing, or a thorough cleaning of your car, inside and out.
Can you tell me what MPa is the abbreviation for?
MPa is a metric (SI) unit for pressure, or force per unit area. Pa is the Pascal, which is one Newton of force applied to one square meter of area (1 N/m2). MPa is a mega-Pascal, or one million Pascals. Since atmospheric pressure is 101 000 pA, or 101 kPa(approximately 14.7 psi), this is approximately 9 atmospheres (around 150 psi).
Describe the mode of operation of a digital thermometer?
the digital thermometer numbers are easy to read
How much money does a professional car engineer make?
An automotive engineer will enter into the business at something on the order of $50,000 to $60,000 per year. The veterans with decades of experience will earn in the neighborhood of $100,000 per year.
Who invented the first true powered gas automobile?
Ferdinand Verbiest invented the first car in 1672. It was the first car ever invented and it was powered by steam.
What happens to the amount of force that must be exerted compared to do the work with out a machine?
The amount of force required to be exerted may increase or decrease depending on whether the machine removed was helping to do the work or obstructing it.
Since, in general we say that a machine is anything that reduces human effort, so we assume that the machine was reducing human effort and thus its removal means that we need to put in more effort.
Sounds pretty sexy, eh? See link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_expansion
Do solids have a disorderly structure?
Most solids actually have an orderly structure. This is because the atoms of a solid are so tightly packed together.
The higher the Hz on your TV, the more fluid the pictures will seem to your eye. In general, a higher refresh (Hz) rate is better, but you might not be able to tell much, or any difference depending on what you're watching.
What is an engineering design algorithm?
1)Identify the problem or design objective
2)Define the goals and identify the constraints
3)Research and gather information.
4)Create potential design solutions.
5)Analyze the viability of the solutions.
6)Choose the most appropriate solution.
7)Build or implement the design.
8)Test and Evaluate the design.
9)Repeat all steps as needed.
Is vernier calipers used to measure length?
Vernier Calipers are instruments that are used measure length. It is an instrument that provides a digit of accuracy.
