Many of you have enough experience and know how to do many really special things in the Technolgies and Engineering fields, but for those that might be needing a job right now, with not too many prospects around and relocation is not going to work for you why not consider something like this.  Teaching.  Hey didn't someone teach you?  Are you afraid the kids will act like you did?

This blog begins with a simple little triangle : call it the “9-10-9”, two equal slope-sides of “9 units” with a base of “10 units”. Having two equal sides, it is an “isosceles triangle” - an ISOTRIANGLE, for short.

And now a step forward from there !

How do modeled objects really interact in the known world of multi-physics analysis studies?  If you are interested in reading about a really easy to use analysis program that can bring into play two or more different physics realms and solve them simultaneously, take a look at this article on COMSOL ver. 3.5a.

The so-called 'speed of gravity' has been the source of some controversy over the years. The anti-relativity fraternity maintains that the speed of gravity must be infinite, i.e., that gravity acts instantaneously over any distance. Relativists, on the other hand, maintain that no influence propagates faster than the speed of light and that gravity is no exception.

Okay, I never thought I would have to admit this in public but it has to be said now to all of you that have earned the title of Engineers and proudly so.  Last nights experience proved that the training we do of our engineers is top notch and I want to relate a true story to you here to demonstrate that appreciation for all that you trained for.

  Humans are powerless to change, stop or redirect what the Earth is trying to hold inside of itself.  Pressures build, weak spots are found, eruptions come about and all life is threatened, yet the question still remains.  Can technology intervene to ease these pressures before they become life threatening major events?  Perhaps we are still outclassed by Mother Earth's power.  Let us train our future scientists with knowledge and tools while they are still in middle school.

A reader sends me his architectural dream house done with SolidWorks.  Kind of hard to use for this type of creation with no furniture libraries or pre-designed tools for walls, door, windows and the rest of it.  But this gentlemen going to a city college is determined to use a program he loves for the dream of his and his wife's.  You have to love it.

    Well I cannot believe it is that time of year again.  I never knew the real effect of that phrase, "Time Flies" until I retired.  However, this is the time to give and be merry so I am re-publishing a few of my long ago written articles about the free tools and things that I found on the internet during my years of doing research.  I cannot guarantee those that will still be active web sites but it sure doesn't hurt to try, right?  One caution is always good to follow.  Always download to a file or save and then right click on it afterwards and choose to check it with your updated anti-virus software before installing it.  You never know and it is always a good practice.  I am very sure of all these links but I cannot 100%guarantee them, so always check just to be sure.  To All I wish a healthy, happy Holiday Season.

If you are like me you possess a certain amount of confidence and poise in how you act and do things.  At least I used to think that was so with me.  Now, I doubt things that I onced believed were Gospel Truths.  Something recently humbled me to reconsider my position on things and I want to share that with you.

This article is meant to be discussed, argued or pulled apart.  We all have a part to play in this one.  It could stir up a hornets nest and that can be good because different opinions can bring out other ideas.  I'm not an expert on this subject and according to my wife I have never been on any subject.  That is okay too so let us all have our say.  I'll answer as many as I can possibly do.  Bye.

Well Folks,

 

                I had my first real experience using Photovoltaic cells today.  I had a little left over allowance and headed for one of my favorite places that I think we all have heard by the name of RadioShack.  While browsing around I spied the section were the Photovoltaic Cells were placed.  Soon I realized that I would just have to buy f
