I am a recent in Civil Engineering looking for full time. It seems that many jobs want someone with experience in their perspective field. So I want to find some volunteer work in some local civil Eng. firms. For those working in an engineering company and/or have worked with volunteers, do you...
Hi guys, what are some ways to visualize the deflected shape of a simple structure?
I know that there is no slope or deflection at fix ends. No deflection at supports (roller, fix ends, etc).
Also, I am not really sure what a kink is.
Thanks
Homework Statement
I need to find the max slope and deflection of beams with several different types of loading on them. I need to first find a load function or a moment function. Then use integration (and boundary conditions or continuity conditions) to find an expression for the slope and...
If you guys look at the first picture, there seems to be copper wiring around the magnet. Can someone explain the function of this? Sorry if this is a stupid topic, I really have no idea.
I am curious as to how a portable fan works. I took one apart and here are some pictures of the motor:

Can anyone share some good methods to study for the finals(college).
Do you think it is better to study alone or with classmates?
any tips of memorizing things?
I am working on an class project with 3 other people, I only know one of them. I have no problem working with strangers, as long as they have good work ethics. The problem is, the other 2 seems to reluctant to come to meetings. I am beginning to think they just want my friend and I to do the...
I am an undergrad in civil. I've heard the current job prospect for civil engineering isn't looking very good, especially in the structural side. So I am tempting to switch out. I am equally interested in mechanical and civil, however, my gpa wasn't good enough to get into mechanical. So instead...

Recently, I purchased a pair of glasses from a privately owned optic store. I specifically asked for hi-index lens (1.56 or 1.60, I am not sure). The lens I got, however, is kind of thick (around 5 mm thick on the edges).My eye -sight is poor though, -5.00 sphere, -1.25 cylinder on the worst...
For a, you have to find the path difference between ABO and ACO. This is 3.142851 E-6. Plug this into phi = 2pi (delta) / lambda. This gets you 41.572874. Now you should have everything you need to solve I = 4(I1) cos^2 (phi/2).
B should be the same, because you're increasing both ABO and ACO...
