Hey All, Have any of you ever worked with thermal software such as Flixo and Therm? I'm having a problem with U-Value calculations differing between the two programs, and I would really liek to get to the bottom of why. What I'm thinking: I am coming up with some ideas based on some...

Hey, I just started a course in mechanism design this semester and I was wondering if there was a free/inexpensive piece of software that would allow me to simulate/analyze simple mechanisms including linkages, joints, and such. Perhaps there might also be some sort of java applet on the web...

Hey All! Happy Monday (No one likes hearing that) I've been recently looking into the different CFD programs available, and have become somewhat overwhelmed. My purpose today is to get some opinions, reviews, or experienced guidance on which programs would be useful to look into further...

I'm using a software to generatre sine waves for my op amp circuit. I know you have to use the headphone jack to output the signal, but I don't know how I would go about connecting my headphones to my circuit. The problem is I don't know how I have to cut my headphone wire for ground and etc...

Hi all, I have this challenge and I am not a math guy. Can you recommend a software to solve this kind of problem? Apologies upfront, I am not mathematically savvy (and English is my 2nd language) and for sure there could be better ways to explain this. You have 4 variable numbers: W,X,Y,Z...
