The engineering design process, also known as the engineering method, is a common series of steps that engineers use in creating functional products and processes. The process is highly iterative – parts of the process often need to be repeated many times before another can be entered – though the part(s) that get iterated and the number of such cycles in any given project may vary.
A beginners tutorial on understanding, analysing, and designing basic electronic circuits; Vladimir Gurevich Electronic Devices on Discrete Components for Industrial and Power Engineering, CRC Press, London - New York, 2008, 418 p., ISBN 9781420069822
Open Compute Project, an organization for sharing designs of data center products among companies; Open Graphics Project, a project that aims to design a standard open architecture for graphics cards; OpenCores, a loose community of designers that supports open-source cores (logic designs) for CPUs, peripherals and other devices.
The program is structured into two phases: project-based learning and team competitions. Participants tackle engineering challenges, collaborating with university students and mentors in a virtual reality environment. The projects focus on technologies such as the James Webb Space Telescope and the Robonaut 2 humanoid robot.
Electrical system design is the design of electrical systems. This can be as simple as a flashlight cell connected through two wires to a light bulb or as involved as the Space Shuttle. Electrical systems are groups of electrical components connected to carry out some operation. Often the systems are combined with other systems.
Engineering is the practice of using natural science, mathematics, and the engineering design process to solve technical problems, increase efficiency and productivity, and improve systems. Modern engineering comprises many subfields which include designing and improving infrastructure , machinery , vehicles , electronics , materials , and ...
A typical beginner's project. Model engineering is the pursuit of constructing proportionally-scaled miniature working representations of full-sized machines. It is a branch of metalworking with a strong emphasis on artisanry, as opposed to mass production .
The American Engineers' Council for Professional Development (ECPD, the predecessor of ABET) [4] has defined "engineering" as: . The creative application of scientific principles to design or develop structures, machines, apparatus, or manufacturing processes, or works utilizing them singly or in combination; or to construct or operate the same with full cognizance of their design; or to ...
