Engineering in Golf

How Much Precision Engineering Goes Into the World’s Most Measured Sport? Golf has a reputation as a traditional sport. However, beneath the fairways, handicaps and etiquette lies one of the most engineering-intensive sporting environments in the world. Every club in a golfer’s bag is the product of precision materials engineering, aerodynamic analysis and computational design.

Engineering Stress Analysis

When Does Hand Calculation Beat Software — and When Does It Not? Every precision engineering design must answer a fundamental question — will this component or structure survive the loads it will experience in service? Engineering stress analysis is the discipline that answers it. However, stress analysis is not simply a matter of running software.

Design for Manufacture

Why Does How You Design Determine How Well Something Can Be Built? Engineering design and manufacturing are often treated as separate activities. A design team produces drawings. A manufacturing team works out how to make them. Problems emerge at the handover. Redesigns follow. Costs rise. Timelines slip. This sequential approach is one of the most

Starship Engineering

How Is SpaceX Building the Most Reusable Rocket in History? On 24th July 2026, SpaceX completed the 13th test flight of Starship — the most powerful rocket ever built. The upper stage splashed down softly in the Indian Ocean. The Super Heavy booster returned to the launch site and caught itself in the Mechazilla tower

CAD Modelling Engineering

What Does Professional CAD Modelling Actually Involve — and Why Does It Matter? Computer-aided design modelling sits at the heart of modern mechanical engineering. Every precision component, every complex assembly and every bespoke system that CNR designs passes through a structured CAD process — from the first sketch to the final detail drawing. However, CAD

What Does Computational Fluid Dynamics Tell Engineers That Other Analysis Cannot? Most engineering analysis focuses on solid structures — how components deflect, where stress concentrates, how fatigue damage accumulates over time. However, many of the most demanding engineering challenges involve fluids — air, gas, coolant, fuel, lubricant or process fluid — flowing through, around or

UK Autonomous Combat Aircraft

How Is a British Engineering Company Redefining Affordable Air Power? On 20th July 2026, Oxfordshire-based MGI Engineering unveiled the T-022 Vortex — the first UK-built Autonomous Collaborative Platform of its kind. The announcement came at a significant moment. The UK Ministry of Defence had just published the long-awaited Defence Investment Plan. It carries £298 billion

What Should Good CAD Modelling Actually Deliver for an Engineering Programme? CAD is everywhere in modern engineering. Every mechanical design consultancy offers it. Every engineering team uses it. However, the quality of CAD varies enormously — and the difference between good CAD and poor CAD has real consequences for manufacturing, assembly, cost and programme risk.
