Fluid mechanics, the branch of science that deals with the study of fluids (liquids and gases) in a state of rest or motion is an important subject of Civil, Mechanical and Chemical Engineering. Its various branches are fluid statics, fluid kinematics and fluid dynamics.
Have you ever wondered what mechanical engineering is all about? I cannot make you a certified mechanical engineer but certainly you can learn a lot about mechanical engineering by reading this Learn from Home series on mechanical engineering.

Motion of various mechanisms building the machines results in the required output. The performance of a machine is analyzed by calculating the position, velocity and acceleration of points on the different parts of the mechanisms and tracing the trajectory they follow.
How about chucking the IC engine altogether and try to use another engine altogether? How would you like an engine that produces electricity that can be used to run your car and use any fuel to run this engine? have you heard of the nifty Free Piston Linear Alternator? read on to know more.
The dams or water reservoirs are crucial parts of the hydroelectric power plants. Water stored in the dam is used for generating electricity in hydroelectric power plants. This article discusses two types of dams: gravity dams and arch dams.
This article is the third in series for sound measurements which deals mainly with sound power measurements. This article will help us to understand more about sound power measurements and its advantages.
This article deals with another methodology in sound level measurements – Noise Level/Source Mapping. This is an important method used to know the source of sound in any operating machinery.
The dam or water reservoir is a crucial part of the hydroelectric power plants. Water stored in the dams is used for generating electricity in hydroelectric power plants. This article discusses factors affecting the location of dams for hydroelectric power plants.
This is the series of articles on ten largest hydroelectric power plants of the world. In this article following hydroelectric power plants have been described:Churchill Falls hydroelectric power plant and Bratsk hydroelectric power plant
