(T/F)THE HISTORY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERINGEngineering is a science which deals with design, construction and operation of structures, machines, engines and other devices used in industryand everyday life. The term “engineering” is a modern one. However the artof building houses, palaces, pyramids and other structures was known as farback as many thousands years ago. Now we call it “civil engineering”.
Astime went on the art of civil engineering was enriched with new achievements of science and technology. With the invention of the steam engineand the growth of factories a number of civil engineers became interested inthe practical application of the science of mechanics and thermodynamics tothe design of machines. Mechanical engineering has been recognized as aseparate branch of engineering since the formation of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers of Great Britain in 1847.The development of the textile machinery, turbines, machine tools,pumping machinery and locomotives of that time made such a diversity interest.
Mechanical engineering deals with machines and devices of all kindsand with research and science upon which they depend. Among these machines are prime movers such as engines and turbines using air, gas, steamand water as operating media; pumping machines and other hydraulic apparatus; steam boilers, heating, ventilating, air conditioning and refrigerating67equipment, transportation structures used in aviation; automotive engineering, railroads and ships, machine tools, special machines for industry andfor construction of buildings, railroads and harbors. In fact, mechanical engineers enter into the work of all engineers in other branches of engineering.The scientific and technological progress will continue in engineeringalong two main headlines.
Firstly, it is automation, including the creation of“unmanned” industries. Secondly, raising the reliability and extending theservice life of machines. This certainly requires new technology. Intensework is being carried out on new robots which can identify objects, theirposition in space, etc. A promising reserve in increasing the life of parts isstrengthening treatment.
In recent years new highly efficient methods havebeen found. In the shortest time possible the engineers are to start producingnew generations of machines and equipment which would allow manufactures to increase productivity several times and to find a way for the application of advanced technologies. First is the vacuum plasma methods forcoating components with hard alloy compounds, such as nitrides and carbides of titanium, tungsten and boron.Vocabulary development2.2.

Read the text and answer the questions:1) What are metals and what do we call metallurgy?2) Why are most metals dense?3) Why are metals malleable?694)5)6)7)What are grains?What is alloying?What is crystalline structure?What changes the size of grains in metals?METALSMetals are materials most widely used in industry because of their properties.
The study of the production and properties of metals is known as metallurgy.The separation between the atoms in metals is small, so most metals aredense. The atoms are arranged regularly and can slide over each other. Thatis why metals are malleable ( can be deformed and bent without fracture )and ductile ( can be drawn into wire ). Metals vary greatly in their properties. For example, lead is soft and can be bent by hand, while iron can onlybe worked by hammering at red heat.The regular arrangement of atoms in metals gives them a crystallinestructure. Irregular crystals are called grains. The properties of metals depend on the size, shape, orientation, and composition of these grains.
Ingeneral, a metal with small grains will be harder and stronger than one withcoarse grains.Heat treatment controls the nature of the grains and their size in themetal. Small amounts of other metals (less than 1 per cent) are often addedto a pure metal. This is called alloying (легирование) and it changes thegrain structure and properties of metals.All metals can be formed by drawing, rolling, hammering and extrusion,but some require hot-working.
Metals are subject to metal fatigue and tocreep (the slow increase in length under stress) causing deformation andfailure. Both effects are taken into account by engineers when designing, forexample, airplanes, gas-turbines, and pressure vessels for high-temperaturechemical processes. Metals can be worked using machine-tools.The ways of working a metal depend on its properties.
