For my Failure Mechanics class here at the Rochester Institute of Technology, I am required to do a series of MathCAD tutorials. At first, I really did not like the software. I thought to myself wow what an annoying way of doing work. But now as I go back when discovering errors in the values I have chosen, I am thankful I was taught how to use this software. It is a great software and I am happy to share some work with you. Please do note that these tutorials are here to help you. I hope you leave some credits back to me.

Tutorials can be on almost any subject. It can be on how to create a new solar powered motor, write a research paper, to build a robot, or how to survive your wife. But for the sake of “keeping the flow,” on this forum we will keep it relating to the WEB and PROGRAMMING in general.
