Engineering and the Industrial Revolution
The first phase of modern engineering emerged in the Scientific Revolution. Galileo`s Two New Sciences, which seeks systematic
explanations and adopts a scientific approach to practical problems, is a landmark regarded by many engineer historians as the
beginning of structural analysis, the mathematical representation and design of building structures. This phase of engineering lasted
through the First Industrial Revolution, when machines, increasingly powered by steam engines, started to replace muscles in most
production. While pulling off the revolution, traditional artisans transformed themselves to modern professionals. The French, more
rationalistic oriented, spearheaded civil engineering with emphasis on mathematics and developed university engineering education
under the sponsorship of their government. The British, more empirically oriented, pioneered mechanical engineering and
autonomous professional societies under the laissez-faire attitude of their government. Gradually, practical thinking became
sicentific in addition to intuitive, as engineers developed mathematical analysis and controlled experiments. Technical training
shifted from apprenticeship to university education. Information flowed more quickly in organized meetings and journal publications
as professional societies emerged.
