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:

Good software tools:

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:

Most above mentioned software packages are made freely available for Industrial Design students. Simulink (as part of Matlab) and SolidWorks are available from the TU/e PC software page.
