Why to Study Mechanical Engineering???

Image
Sluggish economy and slow pacing market hardly hits the job industry.  The number of jobs opportunities growing is getting scarce, in such a crunch the decision of which career to choose and which course to enroll in becomes really important questions to ponder over. In stronger market scenarios, the jobs pertaining to each discipline as in mass communication, arts and other subjects get generated in ample. Professionals taking up studies in these disciplines easily find relevant jobs matching their areas of skills and expertise but the fall in the job market graph affects severely. Many professionals pursue jobs which are in no way related to their profiles. Few works in call centers and few keep on exploring job sites to get their career started. In recent survey it has been revealed that around 20% of UK students will be leaving their Universities with no immediate future job prospects. The question of basic economics is th

Spring Battery

LATEST MECHANICAL ENGINEERING INNOVATION People have been looking for ways to extend the life of a battery, be it a AAA, AA or even the D-size. What we have here is the ONE=TWO Spring Battery. The design is quite self explanatory.The spring basically extracts every little bit of juice form the battery!

LAW OF THE WILD SAYS KILL ONLY WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY

Image
Photographer Michel Denis captured these amazing pictures on safari in Kenya. He was astounded by what he saw: "These brothers have been living together since they left their mother at about 18 months old, On the morning he saw them, they seemed not to be hungry, walking quickly but stopping sometimes to play together. 'At one point, they met a group of impala who ran away.. But one youngster was not quick enough and the brothers caught it easily'." Then extraordinary scenes followed; they just walked away without hurting him. Life is short... forgive quickly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably...and never regret anything that made you smile.

Dangerous creatures have Co-existence and mutual assistance !!!!

Image
The incident occurred in the Indian state of Punjab. Two puppies fell into a well. Their mother ran near the well and started barking, and attracted the attention of the owner, who looked inside and to his surprise there was a king cobra at the bottom, which didn't pose any threat to the puppies. Moreover, the reptile, looked after the puppies, by not allowing them to cross to the other side, wher e they could possibly drown, when the well is filled with water. In general, they spent around 48 hours together at the bottom and in these 48 hours the cobra sat quietly next to them. When help finally arrived from the forest department, the cobra slithered to the other end of the well. The puppies were not injured at all and the reptile was immediately taken into the woods and was released into the wild. Even the most deadly and dangerous creatures on earth know what Co-existence and mutual assistance is. The human race is in this respect far behind, and this is our biggest drawback.

Dolphins Help Save Dog from Drowning!

Image
On Marco Island, Florida a group of dolphins came to the aid of a lost Dog that had fallen into a canal and couldn't get out. The dolphins made so much noise, it attracted the attention of people living nearby, who then rescued the dog. The Dog was believed to have spent 15 hours in the canal water before he was pulled out by fire personnel and reunited with  his owner. One of the people whose attention was captured by the noisy, demonstrative dolphins said, "They were really putting up a ruckus, almost beaching themselves on the sandbar over there. If it wasn't for the dolphin, I would have never seen the dog.” (Source: ABC7news) He said also if the dolphins hadn't persisted enough to get their attention, they dog would have died in the canal. The dog had fallen over the edge of a concrete wall down into the water far enough that it had no chance of getting back up by itself. The dog was exhausted from being in the cold water for hours, and most likely suffering fr

Horrible Fact about KFC

Image
KFC has been a part of American traditions  for many years. Many people, day in and  day out, eat at KFC religiously. Do they  really know what they are eating? During a re cent study of KFC done at the University of New Hampshire, they found some very upsetting facts. First of all, has anybody noticed that just recently, the company has changed their name? Kentucky Fried Chicken has become KFC. Does anybody know why? We thought the real reason was because of the "FRIED" food issue. IT'S NOT!! The reason why they call it KFC is because they can not use the word chicken anymore. Why? KFC does not use real chickens. They actually use genetically manipulated organisms. These so called "chickens" are kept alive by tubes inserted into their bodies to pump blood and nutrients throughout their structure. They have no beaks, no feathers, and no feet. Their bone structure is dramatically shrunk to get more meat out of them. This is great for KFC. Because they do no

What mystery is going on with the FETUS ? ? ?

Image
Recently, one human rights advocate recorded allegation of doctors eating dead fetus after performing abortions at Shenzhen hospitals. To confirm the allegation, an undercover reporter from Eastern Express visited a state owned health center for women and children and asked a female doctor for a fetus. The doctor said that the hospital was out of stock but reminded the reporter to come back. When  the reporter went back to the hospital, the doctor offered ten fetuses for free. In another state-run hospital in Shenzhen, a nurse said that fetuses were in short supply and the price could go up from $10 to $20. In another clinic, one doctor offered the reporter a full-term fetus and recommended that it had the best healing ingredients. The disturbing human rights abuse comes from a distorted view of unborn children in Chinese culture. Traditionally, ancient Chinese considered ingestion of firstborns, aborted fetuses and placentas as part of a mother’s flesh. An unborn child has no perso

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING INTERVIEW QUESTIONS

  1.)What is critical temperature in metals ? It is the temperature at which the phase change occurs in metals. ... 2.)Define buckling factor.  It is the ratio of the equivalent length of column to the minimum radius of gyration. 3.)Explain difference between modulus of resilience and modulus of rigidity ?  Modulus of resilience is the maximum strain energy stored in a material per unit volume and modulus of rigidity is the ratio of shearing stress to the shearing strain within the elastic limit. 4.)Describe transfer machines in brief.  It is an automatic machine in which work piece along with fixture is transferred from one station to other automatically and several operation on work piece are performed at each station   5.)Difference between Tube and Pipe There always a debate between differentiation of pipe and tube . Pipe is always designated by its Inside Diameter (ID) because main purpose of pipe is to carry fluid, while the  Tube is always designated by i
