Engineering and Robotics

Built-world disciplines — engineering and robotics. Engineering covers the foundational disciplines (mech, EE, civil, chemical, thermal, fluid, aerospace, marine, nuclear, etc.); Robotics sits on top with kinematics, control, perception, planning, manipulation, mobility, safety.

LibraryWhat it coversNotes
EngineeringAll major engineering disciplines: 45 Tier 1 deep notes + 40 Tier 2 specialty + 46 Tier 3 family indexes~131
Robotics25 Tier 1 + Tier 2 specialty (soft, surgical, prosthetics, exoskeletons, legged, aerial manipulation, swarm) + Tier 3 family indexes~58

Cross-cutting

  • Robotics ↔ Engineering: every robot is an engineering system (mech + EE + control + thermal)
  • Engineering ↔ MaterialsScience: alloy + polymer + ceramic selection
  • Engineering ↔ Math: ODE/PDE, optimization, statistics, Lie groups
