Sounds like a better place where you are - US I assume.
Here in the UK most engineering companies won't even give you an interview unless you have extensive experience. There is fierce competition for jobs offered by large companies, who offer reasonable starting salaries, and...
You were obviously fortunate. I had 4hrs of labs a week for the first 2 years. 4 Hrs out of 26 a week and you can't deny the fact that those labs always boil down to maths. I have nothing against maths I'm just saying that it IS the core of engineering. Every subject - Thermodynamics, Fluid...
Very simply. NO. You visit uni engineering departments and they look cool - loads of engines and wind tunnels and testing machines. When you get there you rarely, if ever, use any of that stuff. Its maths, maths, maths and very long hours. You also won't get a job unless you've got loads of...
Hello.
I have a thermodynamics exam tomorrow. This is a past exam question and I'm not doing very well with it. If anyone has any ideas please help!
A charge enters a spark ignition engine at 330K and 1 bar, and is isentropically compressed through a ratio of 7:1. Estimate the temp and...
Exam revision question. Help!

Hello again.
I have a solution for a simple differenttial eqn. "Simpletreb=First@NDSolve[{phi''[t] == -d
Sin[phi[t]], phi[0] == (3π/4), phi'[0] == 0}, phi[t], {t, 0, 1}]"
After some plots and other calculations i need to find the value for phi at t=0.224511 so i input...
I'm very new to mathematica and have been trying to use it for solving differential eqns. I've done a simple equation and managed to do a plot of it which looks correct. All day I've been trying to get findroot to work so i can find the exact point at which it crosses the x-axis but keep having...
