resources
Here are some resources that I found helpful when encountering my engineering/science/math classes over the past couple years.
General:
Wolfram Alpha: http://www.wolframalpha.com/
This website is amazing. Type in any equation you need to solve and it will knock your socks off.
Unit converter: http://www.digitaldutch.com/unitconverter/
There’s a lot out there but this is my favorite in terms of ease of use.
Engineering Toolbox: http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/
A wikipedia for engineering topics
Calculus (I,II,III)/Differential Equations:
Paul’s Online Math Notes:
http://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/
This is a very well put together set of notes for math classes spanning from Algebra all the way through differential equations. It’s very clear, easy to follow and has examples.
Electrical Engineering: Basic Circuits and Circuit Design Analysis courses:
PSPICE, student version:
http://www.electronics-lab.com/downloads/schematic/013/
This is helpful to model and simulate circuit scenarios when you do not have a clue what is going on. There’s a learning curve for learning how to use the software but worth the time investment in my opinion to help guide how to solve assigned problems.
Tutorial on PSPICE: http://www.ee.nmt.edu/~rison/ee321_fall02/Tutorial.html
Wisc Online resource:
http://www.wisc-online.com/objects/ViewObject.aspx?ID=DCE10504
Good resource for understanding small portions of circuit analysis and functions (i.e. nodal analysis, mesh analysis, RC circuits)
About
"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success."
