Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering is a very broad topic.
Important topics for Industrial Designers are: Applied Physics, Materials, Mechanics, Simulation and Finite Element Analysis.
Literature:
Applied Physics: Young & Freedman, University Physics, 13th edition.
Mechanics: Fenner R.T., Mechanics of Solids, CRC Press.
Materials: Ashby, Shercliff, Cebon, Materials: engineering, science, processing and design, Butterworth Heinemann.
Khan academy website (self study website): http://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics
Good software tools:
Computer Aided Design & Finite Element Analysis: Solidworks
Mathematical packages: MatLab, Mathematica
Simulation packages: Simulink, NetLogo
Materials: CES Edupackhttps://sites.id.tue.nl/departimentaloffice/Servicedesk/AZ%20Wiki/Software.aspx
CES Edupack is a materials database which contains data about approximately 3000 materials. The database contains mechanical, electrical, optical, cost price, eco, typical application and producers data.
Below you find presentations I regularly give about:
Materials selection presentation
Material behavior presentation
Mechanics presentation
- Finite Element Analysis presentation
TRIZ (creative thinking) presentation
