Need
some background information to aspects of a
topic? Try a specialised handbook or encyclopaedia. These sources are intended for the professional engineer who needs a quick, reliable answer, but does not have a library of textbooks at hand. For lists of handbooks available in topic areas go to | Acoustics | Aerospace | Automotive | Bioengineering | Combustion | Computer applications | Control | Engineering Ethics I Ergonomics | Human Factors | Fluid Mechanics | Heat Transfer | Management | Manufacturing | Mathematics | Materials | Mechatronics | Professional practice | Robotics | Structures | Thermodynamics | Vibration | Welding | Who wrote what, when, where? When you need to find articles or papers on a topic use an appropriate database to find out what articles and papers have been written. Some databases will provide a link to the full text of an article; where this is not the case, check the Library Catalogue and see if we provide access to the source journal. For a list of articles and research papers on all topics in Mechanical Engineering start with Ei Compendex which covers a wide range of subjects. For Australian issues in engineering see ENGINE: Australian Engineering Database from the IEAust. In addition, specialised databases from related subject areas may be useful including - Acoustics INSPEC Aerospace INSPEC NTRS: NASA Technical Reports Server Energy EnergyFiles EPRI Environmental issues ASFA1: Biological sciences and living resources ASFA3: Aquatic pollution and environmental quality BIOSIS Previews life sciences Elixir EVA: environmental abstracts (Australia) Geobase Management Business Source Complete EMERALD Manufacturing INSPEC Materials SciFinder Sports Engineering ASFA1: Biological sciences and living resources ASFA3: Aquatic pollution and environmental quality BIOSIS Previews life sciences PubMed medicine and health sciences Sustainable Engineering AVEry Index architecture, building and planning ASFA1 Biological sciences and living resources ASFA3 Aquatic pollution and environmental quality BIOSIS Previews life sciences Elixir EVA environmental abstracts (Australia) Geobase geographical issues Water resources abstracts water supplies and usage Engineering Ethics Wikipedia has a useful article on engineering ethics with links to the relevant sites of professional associations. |
