Need to
understand a
topic but
don't need the in-depth presentation of a textbook? 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 or index 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 NASA Technical Reports Server Energy EnergyFiles 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 Compendex SciFinder Sports Engineering ASFA1: Biological sciences and living resources ASFA3: Aquatic pollution and environmental quality BIOSIS Previews life sciences Sustainable Engineering ASFA1: Biological sciences and living resources ASFA3: Aquatic pollution and environmental quality BIOSIS Previews life sciences Elixir EVA: environmental abstracts (Australia) Geobase |
