Useful Sites for Engineers

  1. The website has all the stuff to satisfy the hunger of today's engineers. It provides video tutorials on engineering and its application...
    explanation of concepts, principles, software tutorials, video shows on interesting discussions. Moreover, it lists all the relevant engineering jobs related to various disciplines and locations. Other interesting features include articles on electronics, 3D printing, software designing, games, puzzles and downloadable material in resource section and library.
  2. The website is a free resource designed to provide students with access to some of the courses and tools used by undergraduates...
    to master the basics of computing, artificial intelligence and electrical engineering. These materials are also available to educators for use in classroom settings and are covered that ensures they are freely accessible to anyone with a computer and an Internet connection.
  3. The website is run by a senior professor and has section where you can send your problems and doubts related to engineering...
    for which solutions are provided. You can see blogs on engineering notes, research and other tutorials on interesting engineering stuff.
  4. This website provides practical help for programming and coding languages, it offers easy-to-understand examples and in-depth tutorials on AJAX, SQL, ASP, CSS, JavaScript and HTML markup code.
    This diverse range of educational materials ensures that students at all levels of proficiency can obtain the information needed to complete their projects and to achieve success in their chosen profession. This website offers intuitive navigation that allows advanced users to focus on their own particular areas of interest while ensuring that novices can quickly access the information they need to complete their design projects and achieve their short-term and long-term computing goals.
  5. One of the most innovative educational sites in the computer science field, Codecademy offers two tiers of support for students interested in...
    learning to code on a professional level. Self-directed study and basic coursework is available for free through the website. Students who want more active guidance, a customized learning plan and help from professional academic advisors can upgrade to Codecademy Pro for a monthly fee. For newcomers to coding, however, the free coursework available through the basic Codecademy site can deliver a solid grounding in computing basics with minimal expense, allowing students to explore this field without making a major investment in time and money
  6. The website is related to the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). It has a collection of magazines related to engineering. You can get detailed information...
    about all the disciplines of engineering viz. mechanical, electrical, chemical, civil, aerospace, and manufacturing etc. The design of the website is also very creative.
  7. Efunda has collection of all the formulae and important concepts for engineers. The directory section provides basic knowledge on different topics.
    Students of engineering deal with physics, mathematics and chemistry; this site is very useful for them as it contains the daily formulae, unit conversion calculations etc. listed at one place. Basic concepts and definitions are very well explained under processes section. Another best thing is the calculator section that is an online tool for calculation of integral, functions and many more
  8. This community is platform that Empower Engineers to share, learn and explore new product.
    The community created for and by Engineers where they invite you to ask, share information, ideas and help Engineers to solve their day to day problems by comments and suggestions.
  9. If you an Electtrical Engineer, then Arduino is what you must have in your bookmark. Arduino is an “open-source...
    electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software.” The best part about Arduino is that they provide materials for purchase as well as free online video tutorials so that beginners in electronics and electrical engineering can gain hands-on experience and practice.

Top Tools for Electrical Engineers

  1. One of the most important tools for electrical engineers is a calculator. Calculatoredge offers free online calculators...
    tailored to an electronic engineer professional's needs. The website "features more than a few hundred calculators solving complex equations and formulas in the field of electrical, mechanical, chemical, electronics..." and more. With separate categories for electrical engineering and electronics engineering, Calculatoredge is sure to have the tool you need.
  2. PartSim is "a free and easy to use circuit simulator that runs in your web browser." Electrical engineers looking for SPICE simulation...
    AC/DC/Transient Sims, and a Waveform Viewer need to look no further than PartSim.
  3. MatLab is a multi-paradigm numerical computing environment. A proprietary programming language developed by Math Works...
    MatLab allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, Fortran and Python. MatLab is used to do data analytics and can be used to programme development boards. It is very useful for creating analytic projects.
  4. This tool contains prepared links to more than sixty online tools for every day purposes, and some hints where you find more.
    Some selected links which will be used very often (on account of their generality) are designed as buttons. Below these you find a list of more specialized tools. Each tool is started in its own browser window, so that it may be used simultaneously with other pages of maths online.
  5. Compute expert-level answers using Wolfram's breakthrough algorithms, knowledgebase and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology...
  6. All fields of Mathematics and statistics. Accurate and straightforward descriptions of mathematical concepts.
