BP's Thunder Horse platform, the biggest in the gulf, which produces 300,000 barrels a day, was first drilled in 1999 but did not begin to produce for a decade because of a series of engineering problems.
Because of this, there is a strong motivation for developing efficient computational techniques to evaluate this type of engineering problem in a relatively straightforward manner.
Obviously, there are moments when you have to compromise because of an engineering problem or a design flaw, but they come out pretty damn close.
Because most engineering problems do not have theoretical solutions, a large portion of engineering analysis is concerned with experimental information, which is usually expressed in terms of engineering correlations.
Engineering can be a motivator as a natural way to learn how to integrate STEM concepts, because real world engineering problems are often complex and require the application of mathematics and science.
The project was put on hold in 2009 because of engineering and design problems in widening the adjacent portion of the turnpike.
Statistical modeling is at the heart of many engineering problems.
This helps in solving some of the engineering problems.
This intersection of multiple disciplines has rich potential for solving a whole host of real world engineering problems, mainly because origami is a compliant mechanism.
Because the Holland had solved the engineering problems of a vehicular tunnel, the new tunnel, it was thought, would be easier to build.
