the mechanical inventions of Archimedes are examples of early mechanical engineering. Some of Archimedes' inventions as well as the Antikythera mechanism required sophisticated knowledge of differential gearing or epicyclic gearing, two key principles in machine theory that helped design the gear trains of the Industrial Revolution, and are still widely used today in diverse fields such as robotics and automotive engineering.[9] Chinese, Greek and Roman armies employed complex military machines and

President Bill Hunt is clearly uncomfortable sacking Frank Forbus, that too on Christmas Eve. He says, “I can’t understand why we have such poor luck in the engineering director’s job lately”. If the present trend at Rondell continues, future engineering directors too would, quite likely, find their jobs on the line; even as yet other new products are likely to overshoot schedules. Based on a comprehensive
