Wheel Dynamics I 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 review the dynamics of rolling wheels, covered in the chapter Kinetics in the MERM.

"Being nearly 20 years out of college, I was VERY intimidated to attempt the PE exam. I can say with absolute certainty that Dr. Tom’s review course was the key to my success. The organized approach (study schedule add practice problem selection) allowed me to focus on learning the content for the exam instead of wasting time trying to figure those out on my own. I was doubtful that I could get back up to speed on so many of the subjects that I spent years studying in college, but it worked! I initially was planning to attend a live class offered by another company. However, sitting through 4 days in a row of 8 hour classes (for three weekends) did NOT appeal to me or fit my learning style. Tackling it at MY pace and on MY schedule (weekday lunch and evenings, weekends), focusing on solving examples, and shoring up trouble areas before progressing to new lessons was the only way I could effectively learn the material. Doing, not merely watching is the key for me. Having the same teacher across all subjects was also a plus, as was the fact that Dr. Tom's classes are less expensive. I worked hard to "knock off the rust" my skills had collected over the years and get caught up. The classes reminded me of college lectures, except focusing on the applications instead of developing equations. Let's just say I was even knocking the rust off of my ALGEBRA skills when I began the course and still covered enough ground to not only pass but score a "B" on the exam." – Brent V., PE, Houston, Texas #DrTomsClassroom #MechanicalPEExamPrep #ProfessionalEngineers #ProfessionalEngineer #Engineer #Engineering #EngineeringPost #PE #PassthePE #PEExam #PassYourExam #ExamPreparation #EngineeringExams #MechanicalEngineering #Testimonial

"Next Generation" by Rail A recent article in Metro News!, a publication directed to the world of Transit & Motorcoach Business, summarized nicely the upcoming changes in Positive Train Control, or PTC. The article by Julia Seredovich was titled "Next Generation of Positive Train Control: Unfolding Future Trends". The term "Next Generation" has been the cornerstone of changes in the Aviation industry over the last 15 to 20 years or so, a system with objectives very close to the objectives associated with PTC for trains. The new PTC system will be called PTC 2.0. In fact, PTC was initiated about 20 years ago, with safety being the most important challenge. However, as we are all very aware, technology, especially associated with communications, has come a long way in 20 years. And like the aviation and automotive/truck industries, the following goals are being pursued by PTC 2.0: increased operational efficiency, cybersecurity resistant communication systems, proactive maintenance infrastructure, both in hardware, software, and track systems, and seamless operation between companies using common components of the systems. Unlike train visibility in Europe, both passenger and cargo, trains in the US are considered old technology. However, according to the article, trains have the smallest carbon footprint and stand to meet the 2050 emission standards sooner than other transportation systems. And what was interesting was that the first comment at the end of the article was by a someone with a PE. - Dr. Tom Read more at: https://lnkd.in/gh3u276n Mechanical PE Exam Prep That Works https://lnkd.in/gQZvvCn6 #DrTomsClassroom #MechanicalPEExamPrep #ProfessionalEngineers #Engineer #Engineering #EngineeringPost #PE #PassthePE #PEExam #PassYourExam #ExamPreparation #EngineeringExams #MechanicalEngineering #Trains #Travel

"The most valuable aspect of the course for me was that Dr. Tom provides a finite range of material to study, so that I did not have to guess about what might be on the exam. That alone was worth the price of the course. It also helped me to have the structure of the course to follow. I am a teacher myself, and I recognize that Dr. Tom is personally invested in the success of his students. He puts a lot of thought and work into providing good instruction. Dr. Tom and staff, thank you so much for all of your help." – John Gravitt, PE #DrTomsClassroom #MechanicalPEExamPrep #ProfessionalEngineers #ProfessionalEngineer #Engineer #Engineering #EngineeringPost #PE #PassthePE #PEExam #PassYourExam #ExamPreparation #EngineeringExams #MechanicalEngineering #Testimonial

FEATURED TESTIMONIAL – “I Passed, All Thanks to Your Course” “I took the Mechanical TFS exam and found out I passed! This was all thanks to your course and following the Dr. Tom method. I did not graduate with a Mechanical Engineering degree so some of the topics (especially heat transfer and HVAC) were new to me, but your lessons were a great way to learn the material necessary for the exam. During the exam, there were problems that I had never seen before, but sticking to the plan and solving all of the problems I knew how to do through your course proved to be enough to pass. I am very thankful for your program and would recommend it to anyone studying for the Mechanical PE! Thanks for all of the help.” – Taylor K, Pasadena, California Mechanical PE Exam Prep That Works https://lnkd.in/gQZvvCn6 #DrTomsClassroom #MechanicalPEExamPrep #ProfessionalEngineers #ProfessionalEngineer #Engineer #Engineering #EngineeringPost #PE #PassthePE #PEExam #PassYourExam #ExamPreparation #EngineeringExams #MechanicalEngineering #Testimonial
