FE Mechanical Engineering Review and Reference Manual is a comprehensive technical resource for engineering students, recent graduates, FE Mechanical candidates, and practicing professionals who need a structured review of core mechanical engineering principles.
Written by JONATHAN MAXWELL, PhD and K. LUTHER, this manual brings together engineering mathematics, mechanics, materials, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, machine design, controls, instrumentation, and professional engineering practice in one carefully organized reference.
Rather than presenting formulas without explanation, the book develops essential relationships from fundamental principles and shows how they are applied in realistic engineering calculations. Readers are guided through assumptions, governing equations, unit conversions, substitutions, numerical solutions, and checks for dimensional and physical consistency.
Coverage includes:- Engineering mathematics, probability, statistics, and numerical methods
- Units, measurement, instrumentation, economics, and engineering ethics
- Statics, free-body diagrams, equilibrium, trusses, frames, and beam analysis
- Dynamics, rigid-body motion, energy methods, momentum, impact, and vibration
- Stress, strain, torsion, bending, deflection, fatigue, and failure analysis
- Engineering materials, manufacturing processes, inspection, and quality control
- Fluid properties, hydrostatics, control-volume analysis, pipe systems, and pumps
- Thermodynamic properties, energy balances, entropy, power cycles, and refrigeration
- Conduction, convection, radiation, fins, insulation, and heat exchangers
- Shafts, bearings, gears, springs, fasteners, belts, brakes, clutches, and mechanical components
- Electrical fundamentals, motors, sensors, feedback control, and integrated engineering workflows
Each major topic is supported by clear explanations, complete derivations, worked examples, practice problems, boxed answers, technical diagrams, reference tables, and problem-solving procedures.
The manual is especially useful for readers who want to:
- Refresh mechanical engineering fundamentals efficiently
- Strengthen equation selection and unit-management skills
- Improve speed and accuracy when solving multi-step problems
- Understand the physical meaning behind commonly used formulas
- Connect separate engineering subjects through integrated applications
- Build a dependable reference for examination preparation and professional review
The book also emphasizes a disciplined engineering workflow: define the required quantity, draw the system, record known values with units, state assumptions, select the governing principle, solve symbolically, calculate carefully, and verify the result.
Whether used as an FE Mechanical examination companion, university review text, calculation reference, or early-career engineering handbook, this manual provides the technical depth and practical organization needed to approach mechanical engineering problems with greater confidence.
This publication is independently prepared and is not sponsored, endorsed, or approved by any examination organization.
