Top Mechanical Flashcards

Mechanical engineering is the discipline that applies the principles of engineering, physics, and materials science for the design, analysis, and maintenance of mechanical systems. It involves the design, production, and operation of machinery, and is one of the oldest and broadest disciplines of engineering. Did you know that there are several sub-disciplines of mechanics?
 
These include statics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, and kinematics. Mechanical engineering also involves mechatronics and robotics. Mechatronics is the combination of mechanics and electronics, while robotics is the application of mechatronics to create robots. You may be unfamiliar with many of these terms, but don’t worry! These flashcards will definitely bring you up to speed with the field of mechanical engineering and its many complex, but interesting, components.
