Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering is a very broad topic. Too broad.
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.
Good tools:
- Finite Element Analysis: Solidworks
- Simulation: Simulink
- Materials: CES Edupack
Presentations:
Materials selection presentation
Material behavior presentation
All software packages are made freely available for Industrial Design students. Simulink is available as part of Matlab, available from the TU/e PC software page. Solidworks and CES Edupack are available from the faculties software page.
