When you push or pull with a simple machine, you are applying a force and doing work. And, if you get more force out of a machine than you put into it, then that machine has a mechanical advantage.

When Asst. Teaching Prof. Jonathan Perez de Alderete took the Introduction to Mechanical Engineering course at UMass Lowell as an undergraduate student 13 years ago, he learned how to build a windmill ...

This startup has developed an AI copilot for mechanical engineers. At the heart of the innovation is a Large Mechanical Model (LMM), a patented AI system that understands real CAD data. Leo AI is a ...

Moving machine parts have the potential to cause severe workplace injuries, such as crushed fingers or hands, amputations, burns, or blindness. Amputations, lacerations, and abrasions are costly and ...

Recently I came across a simple infographic from Power Jack Motion that did a nice job of visualizing the difference between alternating current (ac) and direct current (dc) motors. This article will ...
