First-principles calculations, rooted in quantum mechanics and executed without recourse to empirical parameters, provide a robust framework for predicting the mechanical and thermodynamic properties ...

Bits, bytes and silicon transistors? Boy, you have it good -- back in 1953, state-of-the-art computers were made of gears, sprockets, chains and cams, and we trusted them to accurately wreck lives ...

Factors influencing the proportioning of machine elements: stresses, deformations, and failure criteria as applied to shafts, springs, belts, bearings, gears. Design of Elements is a required course ...

In the College of Engineering, the first year student experience is similar across undergraduate majors. Your second and third years have distinctive course requirements and electives. Your second and ...

Close up we see pistons move up and down or side to side. Pendulums sway, the small parts of machinery move. Gears drive larger wheels. Gears within gears spin. Shafts turn some mechanism that is out ...

Gain an understanding of mechanical principles and the functioning of various machines and mechanisms used in engineering applications. Students will learn fundamental skills and knowledge by studying ...

This review paper published in AI & Materials explores the implementation of first-principles calculation method within high-entropy carbides ceramics (HECCs) research, specifically examining its role ...
