There are many times in my design career that I needed to translate an object without rotating. Lifting an object on a table is a great example of this. At an airport we may see a baggage...
Reading a hydraulic schematic for the first time is a daunting and confusing thing. There are so many symbols to identify and lines to keep track of. I hope to impart to you a systematic...
Beam Calculations Made Easy – From Free Body to Stress Analysis
There is hardly a week that goes by where I don’t need to calculate the stress on a beam. Beams are everywhere and come with the challenge of many different loadings and supports. ...
