    Oh, I mean does anybody know the formula to determine the flat out pattern of an eccentric reducer by knowing the small OD, big OD and the height of a reducer? Building the paper model is tedious as we have many different sizes of eccentric reducers. I know the way to calculate the flat out...

    Question about your (life) partner

    It seems like most of the engineers prefer teachers as their wives. My question is, from where did these engineers get to know their wives? Hang out at the education dept. often? They were classmate during high school time?

    Work related awkward/embarrasing/rare situation

    During my intern, I worked with those bosses and the president of the company at the same area. One day, someone (I swear, it's not me!!!) was doing a very serious business in the restroom. The smell expanded to all over the office. I could even smell it from my office although it was the...

    Self Confidence

    I think I am facing almost the same situation like Seroney. All the employees in the company are old and are rich in working experience. I am the only one who just graduated from college and am in the age of early 20. Since I feel others have more experience than me, I would rather act as a...

    Bright Future -- R&D? Analyst? Sales?

    Not too sure about 401K. Am I able to apply for 401K as a foreigner in the US? By the way, I am not a materialistic person. I know myself that I am able to survive in any department. And yes, I enjoy working at any department as well. I just don't want to stuck at particular department which...

    Inches to Feet-Inches

    ivymike, I have tried using your equation and doubt that the solution comes out right. I wonder if anybody know the way to convert the fractions to 16ths? If possible, it would automatically convert the 16ths to simplest fractions as well. For instance, 8/16 to 1/2. Any genius outthere?

    Different cultures and their quirks/food/customs/drink

    MadMango, Good that you bring this topic out. I think it depends on the situation. Sometimes, friends would treat us, but not always. Normally, when people get promoted, it also mean that his/her salary would get increased as well. That's the reason why we have to treat our friends , I THINK...

    Determine the Tensile Modulus and Shear Modulus of Woven Roving

    As I said, I couldn't get any properties from the supplier. They did provide brochures but the information is very limited. They gave the properties in laminate form and I am not sure what materials they have in the laminate. Aarrrgghhh, this is driving me nuts. My boss approached me few hours...

    Different cultures and their quirks/food/customs/drink

    Jabberwocky reminded me about the tap water. I noticed most of the Americans drink tap water without boiling/filtering it. Is that what happened in Europe as well? SMS- There is a Shell oil office in PETRONAS (Malaysia's National Petroleum)towers??? Weird case. Do you think there is a BP...

    SMS - You don't like fishhead soup in Korea, "Steve-a-san"? Is that the one with ginseng and herbs on it? That is delicious!!! If I am not mistaken, the fishhead soup is one of the famous dishes in Korea. My aunt lives in Miri, Sarawak. But, I haven't got the chance to visit the Island of...

    Determine the Tensile Modulus and Shear Modulus of Woven Roving

    Blackhorse007 - I did contact the supplier but no result from them. Basically, my boss wanted me to build a material library for future composite (laminate) analysis. To cut the cost of testing, he wants me to predict those material properties based on the formulas by looking at some journal...

    Different cultures and their quirks/food/customs/drink

    Talking about the chopsticks washing, this happened to my parents as well. I am not sure about China, but in Malaysia, we(Chinese Malaysian)would use hot tea (NOT cold tea)to wash our chopsticks (even silver fork, silver spoon, and silver knife)if, and only if, we are ordering hot tea as our...
