eering%20is%20the%20discipline,broadest%20of%20the%20engineering%20disciplines.
Mechanical engineering is the discipline that applies engineering physics, engineering
mathematics, and materials science principles to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain
mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering disciplines.
The mechanical engineering field requires an understanding of core areas including mechanics,
dynamics, thermodynamics, materials science, structural analysis, and electricity. In addition to
these core principles, mechanical engineers use tools such as computer-aided design (CAD),
computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and product life cycle management to design and analyze
manufacturing plants, industrial equipment and machinery, heating and cooling systems,
transport systems, aircraft, watercraft, robotics, medical devices, weapons, and others. It is the
branch of engineering that involves the design, production, and operation of machinery.
[1][2]
Mechanical engineering emerged as a field during the Industrial Revolution in Europe in the 18th
century; however, its development can be traced back several thousand years around the world.
In the 19th century, developments in physics led to the development of mechanical engineering
science. The field has continually evolved to incorporate advancements; today mechanical
engineers are pursuing developments in such areas as composites, mechatronics, and
nanotechnology. It also overlaps with aerospace engineering, metallurgical engineering, civil
engineering, electrical engineering, manufacturing engineering, chemical engineering, industrial
engineering, and other engineering disciplines to varying amounts. Mechanical engineers may
also work in the field of biomedical engineering, specifically with biomechanics, transport
phenomena, biomechatronics, bionanotechnology, and modelling of biological systems.
