      I totally feel you. My first year was hell on earth, I got so depressed and stressed out but once I was done with mathematics and all the other nasty stuff, it got fun and enjoyable. I forgot to mention that there are a lot of great educational videos on platforms like CZcams and khan academy, the key is finding out which learning style works for you and makes learning enjoyable. Associating real life everyday stuff to what you're learning also makes the process more enjoyable. I also recommend meditation especially when you feel like your brains are fried and in zombie-mode. You're on this amazing journey and you can make it. I'm rooting for your success.

      Mr._. M.S.O we do man but you know what kids do when you show them a video like this? They be on their phones going through IG. I mean, these kids don’t even communicate bruh. One day the power went out and for the next 45min, the kids were on their phones instead of talking to each other or playing. The teachers, counselors or even the system are not at fault for some of the bad decisions these kids make on a daily basis. These are stuff that should be taught from home but I guess the parents don’t have time to talk to their kids about their future so they give them phones, video games and stuff to get them distracted. Teachers are not responsible for everything my man. I’ve done a lot more than teaching and some kids get it and some others don’t. I think that’s why I have decided to go for engineering

      @@TheMaxAbe I see where you're coming from but that doesn't excuse the crappy American education system. And one of the reasons I think students are on their phones is because the classes are not engaging enough. Basically, it is ok for a student to use their phone to post a video of their physics model demonstrating one of Newton's laws on Instagram or to use it for a calculator/google. It's up to the student if they want to learn but the American education sucks.

      Once you pass all your math theory classes (calc 1,2,3, physics, and diff.eq) it's all equation application. So you learn when to use certain equations based on application. If you are organized and are dedicated you should do great! Others will naturally be better than you and faster. But nothing can replace hard work, practice, and persistence. Cheers bud

Here on CZcams there is a lot of channels that talk about these topics and the rest is up to you. Good luck on your course!

    Before I've became a Mechanical Engineer, I thought the field was just about machineries but I was wrong. Mechanical Engineering is the broadest engineering field that is all about Energy transformation. Mechanical Engineers are what you call Energy Engineers since we are the only ones in the Engineering field capable of transforming various kinds of energy to another forms (thermal, kinetic, fluid, some electrical such as motors and robotics, fuels, natural energies, and so on).
    With this, we Mechanical Engineers should be the ones leading the energy issues of the world.

      @randatatang9222 Před 11 měsíci +1

      Yes yes yes you're spot on. This is probably one of the best idea about Mechanical engineering. This is exactly what happens even in machinery. First energy is converted from other sources into Mechanical energy which will probably be in form of rotary motion and torque, then this motion is transmitted, modified and transformed if need be into other motion forms, the mechanical energy is then applied to do work. The different machine elements obtain their functions (or their so-called design intent) from their relationship with the different energy transformation processes going on within a Mechanical system.

    This degree sounds exactly like what I'd like to major in!! Ever since I was little, when asked what I wanted to be when I was older, I always said "an inventor" and would draw "invention" ideas in my journals my mom bought me. As I got older, I always had an interest in physics topics on CZcams and watched many physics related videos just out of boredom or for curiosity. I also naturally gravitated towards movies with physics/space related themes such as Interstellar or Triangle. As I've gotten older I've also had time to contemplate what exactly math is and how it applies to our universe and develop an appreciation for the beauty/abstraction of it. So happy to have finally found what I want to do on a heart level, not just on a financial level

When the wind frequency coincides with the natural frequency of the bridge, a phenomenon happens called resonance. Resonance destroys mechanical and structural components.

    As an ME who graduated 30 years ago, it is interesting to see the similarities and differences now and then. One big difference is that back then Mechanical Vibrations was an elective for undergrads and was taught at a 500 level. It was a very difficult class and it was heavily involved with partial differential equations, often a system of them. The grad students had difficulty, and for the undergrads it was a nightmare.

    Go into a major that gives u a focus on your first day. Then your experience will become more valuable & you will be more satisfied knowing exactly your direction.
    Mechanical Engineering focus depends on your employment & if u are lucky to keep your job in the same field.
    Other majors in engineering generally have a focus by itself on the first day in college unlike mechanical engineering.
    Chemical engineering focus is always around process.
    Civil engineering focus is construction of buildings & structures, vibrations of structures, hydraulics of dams & canals.
    Aerospace engineering is aerospace engines & fuselage structure ..
    Avionics Engineering is electronics & controls of aircraft.
    Mechanical is general with no focus.
    Computers science graduates have an edge in programming including robots & automation.
    Electrical engineers have an edge in control engineering.
    Process engineers know the requirements of controls better.
    Mechanical engineers are useful helping different areas.
    Chemical Engineers are better trained to manage power plants & pipeline engineering.
    Welding Engineering is a specialized area by itself.
    Chemical Engineers are also involved in process equipment selection & design & thermal design.
    Structural engineers are more involved in vibrations than Mechanical engineers.
    Instrumentation is electronics, testing& controls.
    Automotive engineering is a specialized area by itself.
    Biomedical engineering is s specialized field with its own degree. Prosthetic design is not mechanical engineering specific.
    HVAC is a specialized area common to more than one major. Generally two year associate degree is enough in this field.
    Mechanical Engineers should pick up their study plan based on interest & established specialized areas in the industry.
    Specialized areas include:
    Power plant thermal & mechanical design,
    mechanical production & industrial engineering,
    mechanical & machinery design, drawings, vibrations & stress analysis .
    Pipeline & storage tank & pressures vessel engineering u learn at job.
    Most of it is drawings.
    2 years college degree is more than enough to make those drawings & design.
    Metallurgy Engineers know more about steel & heat treatment of steel & properties.
    Never keep it generalized or end up like a rolling stone. The job should not drive your career path, your interest & specialized area should drive your career & the jobs u take .
    As an example, a Physician knows he
    or she will be fixing people & their diseases on day 1.
    One who is learning to fly knows what he or she is going to do.
    Focus is the most important thing in life.
    Mechanical Engineering takes away that focus if u do not plan it before u enter the college.
    It is true ME make good money if they are focused in a specialized field from the beginning.

    Zach, new subscriber here and I decided to go back and watch your early videos.
    I am a semi-retired electrical engineer. Back in the day I worked at a series of Silicon Valley startups creating the next best thing in disk drives. It's a tight-knit community of competing companies where one might have the leading expert in actuator design (who also consults for all the other companies), another might have the leading expert in surface fluid mechanics (who also consults for all the other companies), etc. Anyway, disk drives require talented mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, some of whom can also fake it in manufacturability (startups have small teams). I started as an electronics technician (ASET in '75), saw the amazing talent of an EE who _really_ knew his stuff, then completed my BSEE in '89. Classes were easy to focus on because I knew the application and it was something I really wanted to know.

      @@itsanandd Well, let's see.
      Firstly, I didn't do mechanical engineering. i got accepted in the electronics program at the last minute and i enrolled in that instead. And naturally, there is tons of calculus here too and i never knew i was horrible in physics as well.
      So I failed maths and physics in the first sem. And maths again in the second sem. I passed the first sem maths in the back exams but failed in physics again.
      Due to the covid pandemic, third sem exams got postponded, and now online classes of fourth sem are about to start.
      And here is the icing in the cake; as my university announced, once the situation gets back to normal, 3rd and 4th sem exams will be conducted together. Throw in the back exams too; and i will be appearing in examinations for about 4 months continuously.
      Besides all these, things are going pretty good.
