lot easier today, thanks to the mechanical engineers who imagined and built these tools. In a world where we depend on machines more than ever before, mechanical engineers keep things running. Mechanical Engineering is one of the broadest professions. The women and men in the mechanical engineering profession work in almost every industry, in private practice, in government, in medicine, in law, and in universities. Mechanical engineers touch almost every aspect of technology. They create machines

Track Simulator including both conventional and TCS equipment, a Driver Desk, a European Vital Computer and a Driver MMI. The components are modelled using software-based simulations hosted on networked PCs. The simulator has been valuable in the engineering evaluation and validation of emergent system architectures, and enables system constraints to be explored and defined. ERTMS operational modes and the transitions between them are simulated and ERTMS principles and procedures are followed. Innovative

and societal influences. Being a woman in engineering industry is different from being a man in engineering industry. Not better, not worse, but different. Gone are the days when female engineers were masculine, grim women who were constantly exhausting themselves to be considered equal to men. The nouveau woman engineer is ambitious, comfortable in her own skin, strong, intelligent and feminine. This paper contains the path, women entered in to engineering field and the initial phase of difficulties

in the Engineering World Engineering is a field dominated by men in today's society. When people think about engineering they think about men with glasses and never does a woman come to mind. However, there have been many studies on the skills that keep women out of engineering as a career yet there is no proof that women cannot or do not possess the skills needed to be a successful engineer. Therefore, it is thought and stereotyped that women do not have the skills to have an engineering career

in STEM. STEM refers to, “science, technology, engineering, and mathematics that includes biological sciences (except medicine and other clinical fields); physical sciences (including physics, chemistry, astronomy, and materials science); mathematical sciences; computer and information sciences; geosciences; engineering; and technology areas associated with the preceding disciplines (for example, biotechnology, chemical technology, engineering technology, information technology, etc.),” according

Dear Professor Han Ting: My name is Ding Shuhui. You may not remember me, because the only intersection we have is that I attended your ‘The art of Designing and innovation’ course this spring. I found the content interesting and was favorably impressed by your teaching style. After taking the course, I began to get interested in industrial design and got a good mark based on my final presentation. Now, let me get into the main point. I am working on the application to a design school in Spain

INTRODUCTION With the rapid progress of technology and science, nanotechnology becomes a prominent accomplishment of the humanity. The ability to observe and comprehend the nanomaterial has a beneficial human to extend our knowledge in a variety range of industries and scientific endeavors. Nanotechnology is defined as a structure that conducted the size of one nanometer to one hundred nanometers and it is invisible to the human eye. Nanotechnology allows the scientists to manipulate one particular

but it is how media and television draw it. But today, engineers need communication and writing skills even more than actual engineering. Any engineering career starts from the resume writing. Usually a resume consists of two parts: the list of things that you have done well in your life and the cover letter. Dr. Craig Gunn, a professor of mechanical engineering, clearly explains, “Many big companies do not require the cover letter, but it will be much better for you to write one, because

From a position of fire protection, fire-resistive or type I construction is considered the best as it is the most resistant to collapse and does not contribute fuel to the fire (Brannigan & Corbett, 2015). Fire-resistive construction uses concrete and fire-protected steel as the structural system. In some cases these structures will utilize both types of construction depending on the building owner and designer preference. Fire-resistive or type I construction present many advantages from
