Engineering From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search The Watt steam engine , a major driver in the Industrial Revolution , underscores the importance of engineering in modern history. This model is on display at the main building of the ETSIIM in Madrid, Spain Engineering is the discipline, art and profession of acquiring and applying scientific, mathematical, economic, social, and practical knowledge to design and build structures, machines, devices, systems, materials and processes that safely realize solutions to the needs of society. The American Engineers' Council for Professional Development (ECPD, the predecessor of ABET has defined "engineering" as: [T]he creative application of scientific principles to design or develop structures, machines, apparatus, or manufacturing processes, or works utilizing them singly or in combination; or to construct or operate the same with full cognizance of their design; or to forecast their behavior under specific operating conditions; all as respects an intended function, economics of operation and safety to life and property. One who practices engineering is called an engineer , and those licensed to do so may have more formal designations such as Professional Engineer Chartered Engineer Incorporated Engineer , or European Engineer . The broad discipline of engineering encompasses a range of more specialized subdisciplines , each with a more specific emphasis on certain fields of application and particular areas of technology.

In his 15 books, Petroski has explored large topics (such as ideas and bridges) in titles like To Engineer is Human Design Paradigms , and Engineers of Dreams , and found smaller foci in The Pencil, The Toothpick and The Evolution of Useful Things . His memoir, Paperboy , tells his story of delivering newspapers in the 1950s and what predisposed him to becoming an engineer. His forthcoming book, The Essential Engineer , examines how engineering and science relate in dealing with global problems. Petroski's essays have been featured many newspapers and magazines, including the New York Times Washington Post Los Angeles Times , and Wall Street Journal .

Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Thomas Newcomen Thomas Newcomen (baptized February 24 August 5 ), blacksmith and inventor - though he called himself an 'ironmonger' - was born in Dartmouth Devon England In Newcomen, with his business partner Thomas Savery , built an atmospheric steam engine for pumping water out of mines , from coal mines to the tin mines of Newcomen's native south-west England, particularly in Cornwall The Newcomen engine was first used near at the Conygree coalworks near Dudley in the West Midlands in 1712. A working replica has been constructed at the Black Country Living Museum there. Further engines were installed by Newcomen himself in mines in the Midlands, north Wales and Cumbria , with over 100 built before the patent expired in . The design was later improved by James Watt In London in , a learned society to promote and encourage the study of the history of engineering and technology was formed, called the Newcomen Society, after Thomas Newcomen. An American branch was established soon after, and there are branches in Birmingham and Manchester , but the Newcomen Society of the United States is now entirely separate from its UK counterpart.
