Abstract:

This article discusses future of virtual engineering. Not only will the plant of the future be different from the current one, but also the design tools that engineers use will be different. To reduce cost and shorten development time for the future plants, the DOE is developing virtual engineering as an enabling technology. To integrate all the parts in an intuitive manner will require a software framework, which is being developed by the Virtual Engineering Research Group at Iowa State University. The software is a virtual engineering toolkit called YE-Suite. It is composed of three main software engines—VE-CE, VE-Xplorer, and VE-Conductor—that coordinate the flow of data from the engineer to the virtual components being designed. YE-CE is responsible for the synchronization of the data among the various analysis and process models and the engineer. VE-Xplorer is the decision-making environment that allows the engineer to interact with the equipment models in a visual manner. YE-Conductor is the engineer’s mechanism to control models and other information.

Abstract:

Professional ethics refer to the rights and obligations of practitioners within any profession or sector. Engineering ethics can be discussed based on the nature of the engineer profession and its implications for professional morality. This paper takes the virtue ethics lens to discuss engineering ethics and argues that, since human and social good derives from professional virtues, protecting the public interest is a professional virtue of engineers. Further, since the protection of the public interest redounds to human and social good, then engineers are bound by the nature of their professional role to achieve these two interconnected aims, namely, protecting the public interest and promoting human good. The importance of virtues is eminent in the way an engineer improves her professional conduct and this has an impact on the social environment and on human good in general. Given an engineer’s concern with the broad public needs of people, the engineer’s function counts as a morally good role, and therefore can be described as one that can lead to human flourishing.

Abstract:

Multi-modal displays that allow the locomotive engineer to delay safety-critical dispatches in high workload scenarios offer the promise of reducing the cognitive distraction that occurs when the locomotive engineer must listen to a dispatcher’s communication. In an effort to determine whether locomotive engineers could delay safety-critical information from the dispatcher in high workload scenarios, we developed and evaluated such a multi-modal display system. It was hypothesized that locomotive engineers, when provided with the ability to postpone the delivery of information from the dispatcher, would perform better than locomotive engineers who were not provided that capability. Contrary to the above hypothesis, an analysis of the eye tracking measures indicated that the engineers performed more poorly in the multi-modal display system condition, indicating that the system as designed did not allow the engineer to safely delay dispatch messages. We conclude that aspects of the new system that seemed to increase distraction should be redesigned to modify how and when the engineer uses the system to access information and allow for a safe delay of safety-critical information.

Full text

Abstract:

In this article, Muireann Maguire examines the cultural construction of the trope of the engineer-inventor in Russia during the 1920s and 1930s, focusing on the changing representation of this archetype in three science fiction novels by Aleksei Tolstoi: Aelita (1922-23), Soiuzpiati (The Gang of Five, 1925), and Giperboloid inzhenera Garina (Engineer Garin's Death Ray, 1925-26). Tolstoi's fiction portrays engineers as misguided and self-centred at best and as amoral, megalomaniacal, and irredeemably un-Soviet at worst. This increasingly negative portrayal of the engineers in these novels, and in their later redactions and cinema versions, helped to prepare the way for the alienation of engineer and technical specialist within Soviet society, providing cultural justification for Iosif Stalin's show trials and purges of both categories in the 1930s. Tolstoi's alienation of the engineer-inventor, the traditional hero of early Soviet nauchnaia fantastika (science fiction), prefigured the occlusion of science fiction as a mainstream literary genre. As a trained engineer, former aristocrat, and returned émigré whose own status in Soviet Russia was deeply compromised, Tolstoi's literary demonization of engineers effectively purchased his own acceptance within the Stalinist literary hierarchy.

Abstract:

This article illustrates contribution of mechanical engineering in the aviation industry. The most obvious role of the mechanical engineer involves the design of engines. From the Wrights’ four cylinders, 12-horsepower engine, aircraft propulsion has evolved into today’s high-bypass turbofans developing over 90,000 pounds of thrust in some instances. The most visible contribution of mechanical engineers to aviation, engines are far from their only contribution. Changes in the design, construction, and capabilities of increasingly modern aircraft challenged the mechanical engineering in many other regards. The introduction of gas-turbine power required a concurrent revolution in manufacturing, test, and maintenance facilities and techniques at the engine builders. As advancements in aircraft construction and power opened the door to higher and faster flight, virtually every system within the airplane had to become more sophisticated, and new ones had to be devised. Air conditioning systems also changed, both to better suit the gas turbine prime mover and to accommodate wider external temperature extremes.

Abstract:

This article considers findings from Master’s research that investigated the information-seeking behaviours of engineers and scientists in the workplace. The objectives of this research were to establish where engineers and scientists look for information, consider their search preferences and determine the understanding they have of online search engine operation. There is limited current research in these areas looking at engineers and scientists in the workplace. The research was undertaken using a mixed methods research methodology. A survey was conducted with engineers and scientists working in the UK, using an online questionnaire and interviews to obtain quantitative and qualitative data. Due to the small sample size (115: 58 engineers, 57 scientists) this research does not make generalisations about the wider population. The research showed both similarities and differences between engineers’ and scientists’ information-seeking behaviours. The most popular resources used by both engineers and scientists were online search engines, specialist databases and scholar search engines; and the most used sources were from within their own organisation (colleagues and documents). Electronic versions of sources were preferred over print because of their searchability; however, when an item was found it was often printed out to read. Although the main focus of this research was not information literacy it is suggested that there are significant gaps in the understanding of search engine functionality by both engineers and scientists, even though it is the most heavily used resource for information seeking. Whilst this research does not make generalisations about the wider engineer and scientist populations, potential implications for information professionals working with these groups are considered.

Abstract:

This paper describes an experimental study that compares a graphical user interface for a computer-telephony product designed without the involvement of a human factors engineer to a redesign of that interface designed with a human factors engineer late in the development cycle. Both interfaces were usability tested with target customers. Results from a number of measures, both subjective and objective, indicate that the interface designed with the human factors engineer was easier to use than the interface designed without the human factors engineer. The results of this study show the benefits of involving human factors engineers in the design of graphical user interfaces even towards the end of a development cycle. However, this involvement is most effective when human factors engineers are included as an integral part of the design and development process even at this late stage in the process.

Abstract:

This article discusses that technology can ease the adversity between industrial designers and mechanical engineers. In many manufacturing organizations, engineers coexist, albeit sometimes uneasily, with the industrial designers who shape the way the product will look on the outside. While mechanical engineers take care of laying out the mechanisms inside the product’s shell, industrial designers are concerned with its external shape and appeal. At Symbol Technologies in Holtsville, NY, that uneasy alliance does not exist anymore. Symbol’s devices have to be rugged because, although they are meant to be held easily in the hand, they can just as easily be dropped. The company uses I-deas, from EDS of Plano, Texas, for CAD modeling. Before beginning to sculpt on screen, the designer now talks to the engineer about the product. The engineer might know that both a scan engine and a set of batteries must be included inside the final product. The CAID and CAD software work together in such a way that, if an industrial designer changes something about the outside shape, the mechanical features automatically update to accommodate the change. Engineers do not have to rework the internal parts each time the external changed.

Abstract:

This article is a memoir of William Emmet, a General Electric engineer in the field of combined-cycle gas turbine power plants. Despite the odds against the idea, several combined mercury and steam plants were built and achieved the promised high efficiency. This improbable achievement can be credited to a General Electric engineer named William Emmet. While Emmet’s early experience had been with direct current, he recognized the benefits and challenges of alternating current. The fuel efficiency of Emmet’s mercury dual cycle was eventually made obsolete by increased steam plant efficiencies from higher pressures and reheating the steam. Emmet’s contributions today are mostly hidden improvements in rotating electric machinery and apparatus. In contrast, his success in developing the impulse turbine helped create a technology base of engineers and manufacturing. It positioned General Electric to take the lead in turbochargers for piston aircraft engines, and later global leadership in aircraft jet engines and land-based gas turbines for electricity and industry.

Full text

Abstract:

Traditionally, the ergonomics engineer has not played an active role in the design of jigs and fixtures used to manually assemble parts. This is problematic, since tool redesigns are often infeasible due to cost and production constraints. Therefore, less effective measures must be used to control ergonomic hazards, since the hazard(s) cannot be engineered out during the design process. References, guidelines and checklists used by many tool designers do not include ergonomic engineering principles and methods. In addition, many ergonomics engineers may not be schooled in the elements of jig and fixture design, which may reduce their effectiveness as part of the tool design team. The purpose of this paper is to provide the ergonomics engineer with an overview of the design process, and proffer guidelines to assist in the review of jig and fixture designs.

Full text

Abstract:

This article discusses work of engineers apart from Wright Brothers in the field of aviation. Octave Chanute, an American who made his fortune as a railroad and bridge engineer, began to try his hand at flight in 1875. A German engineer, Otto Lilienthal, who was achieving international fame with spectacular flights in hang gliders of his own design, inspired William Randolph Hearst. Lilienthal made steady progress until 1896, when his glider stalled, and he fell to the ground and died from internal injuries. Samuel Pierpont Langley, a professor of physics, after securing research funds, began to measure how much power was required to lift a weight with a wing moving through the air. He used a technique for testing air foils that had been described 50 years earlier by Sir George Cayley. Langley estimated that human flight would require an engine of at least 12 hp. In 1899, his friend Robert Thurston, a Cornell engineering professor, introduced him to Charles Manly, who had graduated from Cornell as a mechanical engineer.

Abstract:

The article studies personal components of a modern engineer who is a key figure in the Russian and global space.The vector of thinking, ethical priorities, reflective positions and identities determine the way to find a techno-humanitarian balance as a condition for the survival and prospects of mankind.A significant influence on the formation of engineer’s identities is exerted by historical and cultural traditions.Engineering culture has a connective structure that forms a single space of experience and activity.Memory and continuity are interrelated; identities can belong to any scientific school existing in the educational institution, field of knowledge, or to the Russian engineering school as a whole.The authors indicate that key concepts of identities of a modern engineer are responsibility, ethical reflection and social assessment of technology.Modern engineering ethics is reflected in ethical codes which reveal the ethical space and responsibilities of the engineer and impose responsibility for all processes taking place in a technogenic society.The practical-design approach is based on the tools of the post-non-classical methodology:key components of the engineer’s personal potential are correlated with the university self-developing environment, reflective activities at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and further engineering practice.The study on the personal potential and identities can be used to justify the need to expand the sociohumanitarian paradigm in engineering education, develop the concept “personal potential”, and identify features of engineer’s identity formation.The development of a model for training engineers using sociohumanitarian reflective methods converging personal and professional competencies and ethical priorities meets the role of engineering education, tasks of ensuring the competitiveness of Russian industry.

Abstract:

In this article we consider an integrative training of the engineer in the globalized world. On the basis of the analysis of the international division of labor and interaction in the field of equipment and technologies which the modern engineer faces, we note the necessity of effective interaction of the international teams. We come to light the problem of insufficient level of training of engineers within the modern higher technical education which is differing in own specifics in the different countries, where education is focused on the regional level of training of specialists. It is noted that the international activity based on the international division of labor demands global training of engineers. The analysis of publications concerning global competence, the analysis of determination of cross-cultural competence, and also the analysis of requirements of the international accreditation agencies allows to select four main characteristics of globally competent engineer: to take into account ethnic aspects of society, the nature and safety; to understand the profession and technical aspects in a global context; to be able to work in interdisciplinary and international teams; to be able to carry on dialogue in a cross-cultural and international context. The conducted research has shown that the selected characteristics are integrative qualities of the personality and the engineer who possesses such characteristics will be able to represent the country at the international level adequately and to work at an innovative factory. As a solution of the problem of modern engineers training authors offer formation of global competence of the engineer due to integrative approach in education.

Full text

Abstract:

The paper focuses on the contractual liability of a project engineer and the consulting engineer, which means that misdemeanour and criminal liability will be neglected, as well as the moral duties that these persons have as members of an autonomous organization (in Serbia, it is the Serbian Chamber of Engineers). Non-contractual (tort) liability also remained outside the scope of the paper. The project engineer and consulting engineer are professionals - an architectural engineer, so a high degree of attention is required of them, expressed through the legal standard of a good expert. The requirement is that the project engineer acts independently, which means that he is not an employee and that he does not perform his work for the employer. There is no employment contract between the project engineer and the client. He assumes his obligation arbitrarily, by concluding a contract with the client. As neither the contract for the design of the building nor the contract for the supervision of the performing of works are regulated by the Law on Obligations, the content of the contract is left to the contracting parties. The aim of this paper is to determine the basis of contractual liability for the main obligations that project engineer and consulting engineer assume. The paper also focuses on trying to define the origin and basis of liability for the soundness of the building.

Abstract:

The article discusses the unjustly forgotten work of transportation engineer A.A. Abrahamson, the designer of the Kyiv funicular, which was built in 1905. To design separate units of the elevating mechanism A.A. Abrahamson invited as collaborators such then well known specialists as mining engineer A.E. Straus, engineer-colonel V.V. Pusheshnikov, and transportation engineers M.K. Piatnytsky and O.O. Baryshnykov. However, when a memorial plaque was unveiled on the upper station of the funicular in 2012, it listed as designers only M.K. Piatnytsky and O.O. Baryshnykov. In proving the authorship of A.A. Abrahamson, the authors used the materials from the private archival collection of M.V. Kushchenko, which is being introduced for the first time as a research source.

Abstract:

The competency-based approach in higher education is considered, and in particular, scientific views on the competencies of an engineer for the food industry are studied. A comparative analysis was carried out in order to identify the key competencies necessary for a modern specialist to successfully realize its creative potential in a market economy, information society and innovative technologies. A developed competency-based model for training an engineer in the food industry is proposed. The object of research is the competency-based approach in the preparation of a food process engineer. Investigated problem is that engineering education should not only prepare a specialist endowed with knowledge and skills. It should be aimed at creating a competitive specialist and a successful personality. At present, in Ukraine, the food industry does not have a competency system that is common for employers, specialists, and higher education institutions. This study aims to create such a framework in the form of a competence model of an engineer for the food industry. Main scientific results: the necessary components of the competent model of a modern engineer for the food industry were identified.

Abstract:

Engineer–computer interaction (ECI) is a new subdomain of human–computer interaction that is specifically tailored to engineers' needs. ECI uses an information classification schema, provides a modular approach to task decomposition, and integrates standard engineering characteristics and working procedures into software. A software tool kit that interprets monitoring data taken from bridges was developed according to ECI guidelines. This tool kit was given to engineers for testing and evaluation. An empirical evaluation using questionnaires was performed. The results show that this ECI software corresponds to engineers' needs and the ECI approach has potential applications to other engineering tasks.

Abstract:

Nowadays, the solution of the problem of training mining engineers in the environment of innovation development is rather complicated and multifaceted. It involves determining the essence and content of the engineer’s professional activity; the need to study the specifics of the training of a mining engineer; the requirements for training mining engineers in innovative development. It is also connected with evaluation of students’ readiness level in the specialty 21.05.04 «Mining», identifying ways to increase the level of readiness of mining engineers for professional activity. The factors influencing the results of the training of mining engineers are identified here, as well as foreign experience in the education and training of mining engineers. Besides, noncompensatory model of assessment of readiness of mining engineers for professional activity by method of threshold aggregation with example of building rating on the basis of this model is being developed.

Abstract:

Aim/Purpose: This paper investigates the changing paradigms for technical skills that are needed by Data Engineers in 2018. Background: A decade ago, data engineers needed technical skills for Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS), such as Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server. With the advent of Hadoop and NoSQL Databases in recent years, Data Engineers require new skills to support the large distributed datastores (Big Data) that currently exist. Job demand for Data Scientists and Data Engineers has increased over the last five years. Methodology: This research methodology leveraged the Pig programming language that used MapReduce software located on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud. Data was collected from 100 Indeed.com job advertisements during July of 2017 and then was uploaded to the AWS Cloud. Using MapReduce, phrases/words were counted and then sorted. The sorted phrase / word counts were then leveraged to create the list of the 20 top skills needed by a Data Engineer based on the job advertisements. This list was compared to the 20 top skills for a Data Engineer presented by Stitch that surveyed 6,500 Data Engineers in 2016. Contribution: This paper presents a list of the 20 top technical skills required by a Data Engineer.

Abstract:

This article offers a revisionist account of Herbert Hoover's career as a mining engineer, looking particularly at his activities in Australia and China where he first established his reputation and his fortune. The young Hoover went to Western Australia in 1897 to work for the British firm of Bewick, Moreing. Hoover's employers sent him to China in early 1899. He became a partner two years later and returned to Australia to direct Bewick, Moreing's operations there. After his return to London, he grew increasingly involved in financial dealings and gradually withdrew from the business of mining. Hoover's career as a mining engineer coincided with a period when the authority of engineers assumed a new significance; American mining engineers in particular became trusted experts. Hoover was one such engineer, although this article argues that his role was more ambiguous and compromised than earlier studies have acknowledged.

Abstract:

The Human Factors Engineer (HFE) Is sometimes excluded from the requirements analysis phase of a project when other engineers do not understand how the HFE can contribute to system definition. The Traceability and Engineering Analysis Methodology (TEAM) combines all engineering disciplines, including Human Factors Engineering, into an integrated methodology for systems analysis. TEAM provides a structured mechanism for Inter-discipline communication during the early phases of a project. Human Factors Engineers have successfully used TEAM to contribute to requirements analysis early in a project life-cycle. This paper presents the TEAM Concept and identifies how the Human Factors Engineer uses TEAM.

Abstract:

The article discusses the conflict between engineers as the professional community and their employer (state or capital owner), which starts its history from the beginning of the 20th century. The author deals with the concepts of engineering philosophy and attempts to define the modern concept of “engineer” with a purpose to understand the new role of the engineer in modern society. The article demonstrates the problem to define the concept of engineering and its connection with the concept of power, which inevitably leads engineers to competing relations with their employers. The article also examines the modern context of engineering, in its connection with science and capital, explores the tendency to merge the concepts of capitalist, employer and engineer. In addition, the author shows the contradictions of relations between engineers and society, expressed in the decisions of scientific policy, in particular, in the concept of “responsible innovations”. Strengthening the role of the professional community of engineers is shown in the context of a comparison of the conflict between engineers and capital owners and bureaucracy in the early 20th century (Author uses works of T. Veblen and E. Layton), and in the beginning of the 21st century (works of modern Western and domestic authors). The article touched upon the topic of influence on the society of modern blockchain technologies.

Abstract:

This paper surveys recent Supreme Court decisions dealing with the relationship between building contractors and architects or engineers participating in the same project. Normally, the agreement between the owner and the architect or the owner and the engineer vests no rights in the building contractor. The latter may only sue the architect or the engineer on an extra-contractual basis. Proceedings may then take the form of a recursory action, where the contractor, having been held jointly and severally liable towards the owner, attempts to have the architect or engineer take their share of liability. Alternatively, proceedings could be taken on the basis of a delict, in cases where negligence is alleged by the contractor against the architect or engineer. The Supreme Court seems inclined to view the problem from a contract perspective, and to restrict opportunities to sue on the basis of a delict.
