  1. INVENTOR OF GALERKIN METHOD Boris Galerkin1871–1945 Boris GrigorievichGalerkin was a Soviet mathematician and engineer best known for his method of approximate integration.Galerkin'sscientific research in the theory of casing (1934-45) revealed its broad application in industrial construction. His works in the field constitute a new direction in this important area. Galerkinwas a consultant in the planning and building of many of the Soviet Union's largest hydro stations. In 1929, in connection with the building of the Dnepr dam and hydroelectric station, Galerkin investigated stress in dams and breast walls with trapezoidal profile. His results were used in planning the dam. • Galerkin methods include: • The Galerkinmethod • The Petrov-Galerkin method • The Streamline Upward PetrovGalerkinmethod • The Discontinuous Galerkin method hearunagiri

  2. INVENTOR OF WATT GOVERNOR James Watt 1736 – 1819 James Watt, was a Scottish Inventor and mechanical engineer Whose improvements to the Newecomen steam engine were fundamental to the changes brought by the lndustrial Revolution. During those times to keep machines turning at a constant rate of speed irrespective of the load placed on them, the operator had to manually open or close the steam valve In 1788, Watt began to think about a way to make this happen automatically. His solution was the flyball governor. It is based on the idea of a feedback control loop. Weighted balls are linked via hinged arms to the shaft of a steam engine. As the engine turns faster, the hinged flyballs fly apart. Governor Throttle But, as the balls separate, a linkage causes the throttle on the steam engine to close. hearunagiri

  3. FRAMED LAWS OF ROBOTICS Isaac Asimov 1920 –1992 Isaac Asimov was a Russian-born American author and professor of biochemistry, a highly successful writer, best known for his works of science fiction and for his popular science books.His career as a science fiction writer began in 1939. He wrote over 500 books, and won the Hugo Award four times and the Nebula Award once. He is probably most famous for his I Robot series of stories. Asimov created the Laws of Robotics that many scientists feel we should adhere to, First Law: A robot may not injure a human or through inaction, allow a human to come to harm. Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, unless such orders would conflict with the first law. Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence, as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law. hearunagiri

  4. PIONEER IN METALLOGRAPHY Adolf Martens 1850–1914 Martens was engaged at the Royal Prussian Railways where he was involved with bridges, metallic structures and construction Supervision. He made important contributions to materials engineering, especially in the fields of metallography and mechanical testing of materials. His name is tightly connected to the martensitic transformation and to martensite, even though he did not work directly in this area. Also directly connected to the instrumented indentation testing, the Martens hardness, HM ( DIN EN ISO I4577-3, according to ISO/TC 164/SC 3 "Hardness Testing of Metals“, meeting on June 20th, 2000 in Berlin ) In 1898, Floris Osmond published in France a paper describing a general method for the microstructural analysis of carbon steels. he gave denominations to these constituents. • sorbite after Henry Clifton Sorby • troostite after Louis-Joseph Troost • martensite after Adolf Martens hearunagiri

  5. FATHER OF NUMERICAL CONTROL John T. Parsons 1913 - 2007 He directed the design and construction of the first numerical control milling machine, under a US Air Force contract. Honors and Awards: First recipient, Joseph Marie jacquard Award, Numerical Control Society, "for outstanding technical contributions" as the "Father of Numerical Control," 1968; Medal, Society of Manufacturing Engineers Engineering, "presented to John T. Parsons, whose brilliant conceptualization of numerical control marked the beginning of the second industrial revolution and the advent of an age in which the control of machines and industrial processes would pass from imprecise craft to exact science," 1975; National Medal of Technology from President Reagan, 1985; charter fellow, Society of Manufacturing Engineers, 1986; DEng (Hon.), University of Michigan, 1988; member, National Inventors' Hall of Fame, 1993. hearunagiri

  6. INVENTOR OF SPOT WELDING Elihu Thomson 1853 - 1937 All that was required for Spot welding was a transformer with a primary to be connected to the lighting circuit and a secondary of a few turns of massive copper cable. The ends of this cable were fitted with strong clamps, which grasped the pieces of metal to be welded and forced them tightly together. The heavy current flowing through the joint created such a high heat that the metal was melted and run together. He had 700 patents and be the first recipient of the Edison Medal for outstanding contributions to electrical science, engineering .He with his teacher founded Thomson-Houston Electric Company later merged with the Edison Electric Light Company, to become the General Electric Company. hearunagiri

  7. FIRST MANUFACTURER OF UTM TiniusOlsen 1845 - 1932 A universal testing machine typically uses a hydraulic or electric servo motor mechanism to test the mechanical properties of various materials, such as tensile strength, compression strength, and bending strength. He is known for The foundation of the Tinius Olsen Material Testing Machine Company and also he received the award Elliott Cresson Medal, also known as the Elliott Cresson Gold Medal, was the highest award given by the Franklin Institute. Selected list of US Patent 1. Improvement In Testing Machines # 213,586 2. Testing Machine # 228,214. 3. Recording Testing-Machine # 445,476. hearunagiri

  8. ARCHITECT OF THE INTEL MCS-51 INSTRUCTION SET John Harrison Wharton 1954- 2018 John Harrison Wharton was an American engineer specializing in microprocessors and their applications. Wharton designed the Intel MCS-51, one of the most implemented instruction set architectures of all time. He was a founding member of the editorial board of Microprocessor Report. He  was the architect of the instruction set of the Intel MCS-51, commonly known as the 8051. The MCS-51 and its derivatives are Intel's highest volume microprocessor,  and among the most implemented instruction set architectures of all time. The Intel MCS-51 is a single chip microcontroller (MCU) series developed by Intel in 1980 for use in embedded systems. hearunagiri

  9. DEVELOPERS OF CMOS SENSOR Eric R. Fossum Sunetra K. Mendis Sabrina Kemeny Fossum, SunetraMendis and Sabrina E Kemeny, developed a new CMOS active-pixel sensor (APS) with intra-pixel charge transfer camera-on-a-chip technology. Eric R. Fossumis an American physicist and engineer known for co-developing the CMOS image sensor. He is currently a professor at Thayer School of Engineering in Dartmouth College. Sabrina Kemenyco-invented the camera-on-a-chip technology which revolutionized digital imaging and is at the core of every cell phone camera, while working for Nasa’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). Subsequently, she was cofounder and CEO of Photobit Corporation, the company that successfully commercialized the fledgling CMOS sensor technology. SuniMendiswas born in Sri Lanka. She was a Member of Technical Staff at Bell Laboratories and Hewlett-Packard Laboratories and a Senior Design Engineer at Vanguard America before joining Atheros Communications. hearunagiri

  10. FATHER OF NANOTECHNOLOGY Richard Feynman 1918 - 1988 Nanotechnology is science, engineering, and technology conducted at the nanoscale, which is about 1 to 100 nanometers. Professor Norio Taniguchi coined the term nanotechnology. It wasn't until 1981, with the development of the scanning tunneling microscope that could "see" individual atoms, that modern nanotechnology began On a comparative scale, if a marble were a nanometer, then one meter would be the size of the Earth hearunagiri
