Method of Joints I've always loved helping others grasp mechanical concepts and apply them. Providing free videos is my way of supporting people in making that crucial leap of understanding. In this video, I go over Example 45.8 in the MERM relative to the Method of Joints. My goal is to help you understand this important topic.

Tiny Minions Can Make Air into Stone When you think of tiny minions, you probably think about movies or ants, but how about bacteria? Carbon dioxide (CO2) is of course one of biggest challenges to the climate today. Humans create millions of tons per year and natural processes far more. Plants and natural processes sequester almost all of it into more plants or into calcium carbonate rock (limestone), but the rest still builds up in the atmosphere. Scientists at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology have isolated an enzyme produced by a bacteria that lives deep underground that accelerates the process of converting CO2 into rock. The goal is to pump tons of CO2 into deep reservoirs (left over from gas extraction or old deep mineral mines) and then use this bacteria to fill in the cavity with rock. What normally would take 7 to 10 years, this bacteria can do in to 10 days. This allows for permanent sequestration without fear of leakage of collapse of chambers and rock can hold a far higher density of carbon than pressurized CO2. This could be a real answer for making carbon capture economical and realistic. - Steve Terry, DTC HVAC & Refrigeration Instructor Read more at: https://lnkd.in/g3HPd4jU Mechanical PE Exam Prep That Works https://lnkd.in/gQZvvCn6 #DrTomsClassroom #MechanicalPEExamPrep #ProfessionalEngineers #Engineer #Engineering #EngineeringPost #MechanicalEngineering #Technology #EngineeringDesign #Ingenuity #Innovation #EngineeringLife #EngineerLife #WorldOfEngineering

"If you don’t read my entire testimonial – here is the “bottom line upfront:” Look no further! Like many other folks, I had previously taken the Mechanical PE exam without a great deal of structure. In fact, after two unsuccessful attempts in the mid 1990’s – I placed professional registration on hold – uncertain if I would ever try again. However, with life and work ever-changing, it became clear that professional registration would be a benefit. Needless to say – I passed the Mechanical Thermal/Fluids exam and a great deal of credit goes to Dr. Tom and the course. If you work the program, watch the lectures, do the problems, participate in the weekly discussions, and use the participant forum…..you will pass the exam. This structure, organization, and commitment are why this program is so successful and I will be recommending this to my colleagues. Thank you Dr. Tom and your entire staff." – Neil Martin, PE (LTC (Retired – US Army)), Veolia Water Technologies, Naperville, Illinois #DrTomsClassroom #MechanicalPEExamPrep #ProfessionalEngineers #ProfessionalEngineer #Engineer #Engineering #EngineeringPost #PE #PassthePE #PEExam #PassYourExam #ExamPreparation #EngineeringExams #MechanicalEngineering #Testimonial

Will Coffee Someday Power Your Car? Hydrogen is probably the gold standard in "green" fuels, however producing it and storing it safely is a major challenge. Researchers at MIT came up with an interesting process that at least does not require storing the hydrogen. First, they realized that hydrogen could be produced by adding aluminum pellets to seawater. However, the pellets, which could be obtained from aluminum cans, must be pure. Unfortunately, the pure aluminum pellets also react with the oxygen in the air forming a thin oxide layer that slows down the production of hydrogen. The researchers then realized that metals like gallium and indium would remove the oxide layer allowing the aluminum pellets to react to the seawater. It turned out that while they could recover the expensive gallium and indium, the seawater also slowed down the production of hydrogen. Then, quite by chance, the researchers went into a nearby kitchen and for some reason added coffee grounds to the seawater. They discovered that not only did the coffee grounds prevent the production of a prohibitive layer on the aluminum pellets, but the production of hydrogen speeded up. In talking to colleagues in the Chemistry department they discovered that an ingredient in the caffeine of the coffee grounds, imidazole, allows the production of hydrogen to continue without affecting the expensive elements gallium and indium. The researchers are encouraged by the application of the process for ocean going vessels, however there is a clear challenge for cars, trucks, and trains. This is definitely a very interesting and promising story to follow. - Dr. Tom Read more at: https://lnkd.in/gv4jjnhb Mechanical PE Exam Prep That Works https://lnkd.in/gQZvvCn6 #DrTomsClassroom #MechanicalPEExamPrep #ProfessionalEngineers #Engineer #Engineering #EngineeringPost #MechanicalEngineering #Technology #EngineeringDesign #Ingenuity #Innovation #EngineeringLife #EngineerLife #WorldOfEngineering #Coffee

PE EXAM TIP - Have Only One Way to Work a Problem There is a wealth of information out there on how to solve PE Exam problems. For any given class of problems, you can find many solution approaches. You may have even thought of additional, and quite valid, approaches on your own. However, seeking out a number of approaches has a troublesome downside. All you need is one right way to work a problem, but which one to use? You don’t want to make this decision during the exam; that can use up valuable time. You need to make that decision during your preparation, and commit to the solution you are going to use. You are free to choose any solution you like, but in our DTC Mechanical PE Exam Reviews, we have worked to select the most direct and teachable solution approach for a class of problems, using an approach for each class of problems that is consistent and repeatable - “The Dr. Tom Method.” The feedback we have received from past participants is that this approach really does pay off for them on the exam. - Dr. Tom Mechanical PE Exam Prep That Works https://lnkd.in/gQZvvCn6 “The way Dr. Tom prepares students for the exam is absolutely priceless. It reminded me very much of my undergraduate classes taught by my favorite professors. The problems are presented in the clearest method possible and definite path presented to solve all problems. When the exam day arrived, I was able to maintain the correct and necessary mindset thanks to all the coaching tips from Dr. Tom. I completely attribute my exam performance to Dr. Tom.” – Karl Peter Gubert, P.E., Peaker Services, Inc. – Woodward Industrial Channel Partner, Brighton, Michigan #DrTomsClassroom #ProfessionalEngineers #ProfessionalEngineer #Engineer #Engineering #MechanicalEngineering #MechanicalEngineer #MechanicalPEExamPrep #EngineeringVideo #EngineeringPost #Goals #EngineeringExamSuccess #PE #PassthePE #PEExam #PassYourExam #ExamPreparation #EngineeringExams #EngineerExamTip #ExamTip #ExamDay

I followed Dr. Tom's course to a T - no more, no less. When I took the exam, I felt extremely prepared and confident in moving through each question. I have no doubt that Dr. Tom's Classroom is the most efficient way to study for the exam because the course was absolutely doable along with working a full time job and having a family. I am so grateful there is someone out there that truly wants to help people pass the PE exam! – Scot Carpenter, XO Armor Technologies, Auburn, AL #DrTomsClassroom #MechanicalPEExamPrep #ProfessionalEngineers #ProfessionalEngineer #Engineer #Engineering #EngineeringPost #PE #PassthePE #PEExam #PassYourExam #ExamPreparation #EngineeringExams #MechanicalEngineering #Testimonial

With DTC, Practice Makes Perfect! Poor time management during the exam. That is the most common reason our participants say kept them from passing the exam. With the clock ticking, especially on the CBT format exam, it’s easy to get thrown off your exam-day plan, waste time on difficult problems, realize the clock is running out, and panic. But it doesn’t have to be that way, and DTC has designed our courses to prevent that from happening. Like any stressful situation, the best way to conquer it is to acclimate yourself to it with repeated exposure. That’s why our 20-Week CBT Mechanical Reviews include lots of opportunities to practice solving problems under exam-like conditions. Weekly Assessment Quizzes - First you have a weekly assessment quiz that draws problems from that week’s topics. This is your first opportunity to test your understanding and ability to solve related problems. Questions are presented on the screen, much like the real exam, and we recommend that you replicate exam conditions as closely as possible, using the onscreen Reference Handbook as your only reference. Timed 5-Week Practice Exams - Then every five weeks, you have a practice exam that pulls 10 questions from the previous five weeks of the course. This practice exam is timed and you have one hour to complete it. Timed Final Practice Exams - At the end of the course, you go deeper with two two-hour final practice exams that have questions from the full course, and provide you with a very realistic exam experience. This combination of quizzes and practice exams throughout the course allows you to build your confidence and comfort with the exam conditions, so that you are calm and focused on exam day. Just another reason by DTC courses are the best.
