  2. Rainflow-counting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainflow-counting_algorithm

    The stress history in Figure 2 is reduced to tensile peaks in Figure 3 and compressive valleys in Figure 4. From the tensile peaks in Figure 3: The first half-cycle starts at tensile peak 1 and terminates opposite a greater tensile stress, peak 3 (case c ); its magnitude is 16 MPa (2 - (-14) = 16).

  3. List of fields of application of statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fields_of...

    Reliability engineering is the study of the ability of a system or component to perform its required functions under stated conditions for a specified period of time. Social statistics is the use of statistical measurement systems to study human behavior in a social environment.

  4. Static program analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_program_analysis

    A study in 2012 by VDC Research reported that 28.7% of the embedded software engineers surveyed use static analysis tools and 39.7% expect to use them within 2 years. [9] A study from 2010 found that 60% of the interviewed developers in European research projects made at least use of their basic IDE built-in static analyzers.

  5. Mechanical engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_engineering

    Various machine components used in mechanical engineering. Mechanical engineering is the study of physical machines that may involve force and movement. It is an engineering branch that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science, to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. [1]

  6. Applied mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applied_mechanics

    Engineering problems are generally tackled with applied mechanics through the application of theories of classical mechanics and fluid mechanics. [4] Because applied mechanics can be applied in engineering disciplines like civil engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, materials engineering, and biomedical engineering, it is sometimes referred to as engineering mechanics.

  7. Structural engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering

    Structural engineering is a sub-discipline of civil engineering in which structural engineers are trained to design the 'bones and joints' that create the form and shape of human-made structures. Structural engineers also must understand and calculate the stability , strength, rigidity and earthquake-susceptibility of built structures for ...

  8. Constructive solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive_solid_geometry

    This can be important for some manufacturing or engineering computation applications. By comparison, when creating geometry based upon boundary representations, additional topological data is required, or consistency checks must be performed to assure that the given boundary description specifies a valid solid object. [1]

  9. Engineering statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_statistics

    [1] [2] [3] Time and methods engineering use statistics to study repetitive operations in manufacturing in order to set standards and find optimum (in some sense) manufacturing procedures. Reliability engineering which measures the ability of a system to perform for its intended function (and time) and has tools for improving performance. [2 ...
