How a refinery works – what happens in a refining tower?

In the distillation column, the heart of a petroleum refinery, there are many ongoing interesting processes. The challenge: there are many mixed gases. How do you separate them out? Well, if you can give a solution to this problem, the mix of crude oil can be separated into many useful components.

The tricky problem for engineers is the question, how do you approach the...
The GENIUS Engineering Behind Bailey Bridges!

According to General Dwight D. Eisenhower and many other historians, the Bailey Bridge was one of the three most vital innovations for the Allied victory in World War II. This rugged, easy to assemble bridge still does wonders even in the modern world.

In fact, these structures of the Bailey Bridge are not mere railings. They are the side panels that give incredible strength to the Bailey...
Mystery SOLVED - How did they Walk the Moai statues?

The Moai statues on Easter Island were transported a remarkable 13 km by the Rapanui people. These statues literally walked even though they didn't have legs. The mechanics behind this motion are nothing short of genius.

Consider this Moai statue. Imagine this statue is pivoted at one point. If you pull this edge backward, the other end of the Moai statue will move forward. Now by...
How are Bridges Built over the Ocean?

Please take a look at the foundations of a modern bridge. How are such gigantic foundations built? Especially when they stand on long concrete piles. Remember, the foundation is half submerged. To construct the foundation, engineers first need to install a watertight chamber, a caisson.

Let's observe the installation of this massive structure. Can you spot a major issue in this installation?...
Tesla Valve | The complete physics

A few commonly-used one way valves are shown here. All these valves have one thing in common: they all have moving parts. Here is a design challenge—is it possible to design a one-way valve without any moving parts?

Most of us will feel like this is an impossible design challenge, but not for design genius Nikola Tesla. Nikola Tesla has developed a one-way valve without any moving parts. In his...
Statue of Liberty : Even Today's Engineers are Surprised!

One of the biggest non-nuclear explosions in history, the Black Tom explosion, caused significant damages to the Statue of Liberty, but couldn’t topple it. The statue's strong iron frame is connected to the copper skin by these flat bars. Interestingly the flat bars are capable of flexing. What will happen in this design if a strong force acts on the copper skin? You can see the flat bars are bending. These flexible bars act like spring isolators and the force...
How are Modern Flyovers Built?

In this beautiful flyover, there are a few high-tension steel tendons protected in conduits. Unfortunately, they are corroding. Can you guess the impact of this on the flyover after 3–4 months? Why is this happening?

You may not believe this, but modern flyovers use these kinds of empty box girders for construction. Interestingly, the smart engineering of these girders allows male–female...
El invento del limpiaparabrisas para automóviles – Una historia brillantez de la ingeniería

¿Sabías que la tecnología moderna de los limpiaparabrisas, que todos damos por sentada, nació gracias a un destello de genialidad de un hombre?

Channel Tunnel | The Mind-blowing Engineering Behind It

Crossing the violent English Channel via an underground tunnel has been one of mankind’s greatest engineering dreams. This dream was fulfilled in 1990 after a massive tunneling and sophisticated railway work. However, this simple tunnel-train method has a very big technical issue. Can you spot it?

To understand it, let’s look at an example. After pushing the train for some...
8 Cosas que NO DEBES HACER con la TRANSMISIÓN AUTOMÁTICA

Al principio, conducir un coche con transmisión automática puede parecer más sencillo que con transmisión manual, ya que los mandos de este tipo de caja son intuitivos y resultan útiles en diversas situaciones, como en el tráfico donde se arranca y se detiene cada pocos segundos, o también en pendientes. Pero aunque pueda parecer un tipo de transmisión sencillo, hay algunas cosas que debes saber.

The Brilliant Engineering of Mecanum Wheels!

Mecanum wheel-fitted robots or industrial machines can make a 180 degree turn without taking much space, whereas a normal forklift takes a lot of space and time to achieve the same task. Consider this perfect sideward movement of Mecanum wheeled machines. This would be tedious to achieve using normal wheels. Mecanum wheeled machines achieve all these crazy movements, but their wheels never tilt. Let’s see how Mr. Bengt Erland Ilon came up with this brilliant design. ...
The interesting engineering behind your Car Window!

Are you amazed at how easily you can raise and lower your car windows by just pressing a button? The mechanism inside your car window is so compact and smart that the window always moves straight and smooth. Also, you might have noticed that you’re not able to move the window even if you try to push it down or pull it up manually. Let’s understand the tricky mechanism that controls your car window.

Petrol (Gasoline) Engine vs Diesel Engine

Gasoline and diesel engines are the two most commonly used internal combustion engines. Even though their operation seems similar, they have some interesting differences, and each has advantages over the other. This video is aimed at exploring these differences and advantages from a scientific point of view.

Both engines have the basic 4 strokes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. ...
The Fascinating Engineering behind Electric Trains!

It might be surprising to know that in electric trains, the power collected from the overheadlines ends up in the grounding cable of the track after flowing through the wheels. Three phase power conversion, regenerative braking and zig-zag overheadlines - all these make electric train technology quite unique. Let’s understand all the engineering secrets behind the electric trains starting from the simplest design possible.
