IT is widely used in various engineering fields for design, testing, simulation, planning and automation. It allows engineers to design and test products virtually using tools like CAD, CAM, and CAE before building expensive prototypes. Engineering fields like mechanical, civil, and chemical engineering use IT applications for modeling, analysis, plant design and management. Overall, IT helps engineers work more efficiently and cost-effectively across the entire engineering process.

2. Application of IT in Engineering.
• Today’s world is connected by large hidden
but highly complex information network.
IT is used to Design, testing, development,
simulations, planning and automating the
system.

3. Application of IT in mechanical Engineering
• Design, analysis, control material,
manufacturing method and learn to solve
complex problem.
• Test new products without building
expensive prototype
• Use of visualization technology to
transform data into image or environment

4. CAD
• Computer Aided Design
• use of computer systems to
assist in the creation,
modification, analysis, or optimization of a design
communications through documentation, and to
create a database for manufacturing
• software packages range from 2D vector-based
drafting systems to
3D solid and surface modelers.
• frequently allow rotations in three dimensions
• design of tools and machinery of all types

5. CAD
• one of the many tools used by engineers and
designers and is used in many ways
depending on the profession of the user and
the type of software in question.
• used for the accurate creation of photo
simulations
• Without it would be time consuming,labour-
intensive and costly process
• From the design of a screw
• to simulation of complex
• machine CAD is used.

6. CAM
• Computer-aided manufacturing
• The use of computer software to control
machine tools and related machinery in
the manufacturing process
programming tool,
wherein two-dimensional(2D)
or three dimensional (3D)
models of components
• Geometrical design data to
control automated machine

7. CAM
• Shortcoming in expense, ease of use,
decrease Manufacturing complexity
• Zoom feature whereby designer can
magnify certain element of a model to
inspection
• BUT incorporating information about
the nature of material- weight,strength
flexibility

8. CAE
• The broad usage of computer
software to aid in engineering
tasks.
• It includes computer-aided
design (CAD),computer-aided
analysis (CAA),computer-aided
manufacturing (CAM) and computer-aided
planning (CAP)
• CAE tools are very widely used in
the automotive industry and aerospace.

10. • AutoCAD is an interactive drawing
system designed to permit a user to
construct or edit a drawing on a graphics
display.
• AutoCAD is used in field of architectural
and mechanical designing, mapping and
3D.
• Ansys,pro E and caden
are other example

11. Automation and robotics
• Use of machines, control
systems and information technologies to
optimize productivity in the production of
goods and delivery of services
• to increase productivity, and quality
beyond that possible with current human
labor
• Improved robustness (consistency), of
product and greater precision
• Keep the track of material

12. Application of IT in civil Engineering
• The application of planning, designing,
constructing, maintaining, calculations,
including structural design, geometry
calculations, and applications for project
management.

13. • Remote sensing the study of phenomenon
sensed from air or satellites.The use of
remote sensing provides engineers with an
opportunity to interpret data as seen from
space.This facility is particularly useful in
surveying very large areas at relatively little
cost

14. Application of IT in electronic Engineering
• A broad scientific and profound knowledge
of electronic circuits and systems knowledge
of telecommunications and computer-
controlled systems.

15. • Advantage of the speed of computer
analysis, the engineer can explore a
greater number of design options in a
short period of time.It allows an engineer
to make immediate comparisons and see
the impact of each.
• We can develop structural behaviour
from a single project rather than having
to await the accumulative experience of
several projects.

16. Application of IT in chemical Engineering
• Advancements in computer science found
applications designing and managing plants,
simplifying calculations and drawings,that
previously had to be done manually.
• Engineering work processes is an emerging
and challenging area of research and
development.
• Supporting the activities during the life cycle of
a chemical process by means of information
technology. Emphasis will be largely on the
process and plant design process

17. Modeling, numerical analysis and simulation
• Informatics and intelligent systems
• Process and product synthesis/design
• Process control and monitoring
• Events management and process safety
• Plant operations, integration,
planning/scheduling and supply chain.
Global chemical industry by focusing on
advancements of information technology and
business management skills.

18. • IT can provide easy access to various
statistics, drawing & various other
data concerning the project.Self
check toolscan identify the problems
in various systems like fire fighting,
air conditioning & can automatically
inform concerned service provider.
• IT can also help in prompt reporting
of problem.

19. CONCLUSION
• Finally , IT can be used by engineers for
various design, testing, maintain,
simulation and executing the given
problem with low investment and the
• benefits can be gained.
• The only need is to
• I Investment in IT
e education among the
e engineers &recognition
of the enormous potential lying beneath.
