Discipline summary

Mechanical engineering is a discipline of engineering that applies the principles of physics and materials science for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. It is the branch of engineering that involves the production and usage of heat and mechanical power for the design, production, and operation of machines and tools. It is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines. wikipedia

  1. Dental thermal pain is a significant health problem in daily life and dentistry. There is a long-standing question regarding the phenomenon that cold stimulation evokes sharper and more shooting pain sensations than hot stimulation. This phenomenon,…
  2. We are developing a dual panel breast-dedicated PET system using LSO scintillators coupled to position sensitive avalanche photodiodes (PSAPD). The charge output is amplified and read using NOVA RENA-3 ASICs. This paper shows that the coincidence…
  3. The term immersed boundary methodwas first used in reference to a method de- veloped by Peskin (1972) to simulate cardiac mechanics and associated blood flow. The distinguishing feature of this methodwas that the entire simulationwas carried out on…
  4. The present paper deals with the two-dimensional numerical simulation of gaseous flow and heat transfer in planar microchannel and nanochannel with different wall temperatures in transitional regime 0.1Kn1 . An atomistic molecular simulation method…
  5. We provide an overview of level set methods, introduced by Osher and Sethian, for computing the solution to fluid-interface problems. These are computational techniques that rely on an implicit formulation of the interface, represented through a…
  6. In December 2007, the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine established a Task Force to develop standard operating procedures (SOPs) for operating intensive care units (ICU) during an influenza epidemic or mass disaster.
  7. Mechanics of materials is the science of forces applied on a body and response of the body in terms of deformation. Different type of loadings on bodies with different geometries or made of different material give rise to different deformations.…
  8. The effects of reinforcement geometry, in 2D and 3D woven fabric-reinforced composites, on the progression of damage and perforation failure at quasi-static loading rates (10-80 mm/s) are investigated. The broad classes of glass-fiber-reinforced…
  9. Writing for publication can be a challenging but rewarding experience. The satisfaction of seeing your name in print undoubtedly outweighs any of the minor frustrations that can be encountered along the way! This article is aimed at those new to…
  10. The application of fracture mechanics to the design of ceramic structures will require the precise measurement of crack growth and fracture resistance of these materials over their entire range of anticipated service temperatures and standardized…
