Drilling engineers use tons of a thick fluid called drilling mud to lubricate drill bits as they chew through rock.
Similar to geologists evaluating how to produce a reservoir, the efficiency engineers use this comprehensive data to calibrate simulation models that predict the financial impact of a range of efficiency measures over the building life.

Fortunately for them, assembling all that data back in Mountain View was a far less rigorous task: Google engineers use their mapping software to link the photos to their shooting locations and string them together to create the panoramic paths users walk through.
To further hone the image, engineers use a technique called optical proximity correction, which uses oddly shaped bars, notches and other distortions that are cut into the chrome template on the quartz plate to trick light waves into making a more precise pattern (see left).

Engineers can use DNA readers to concoct designer microbes to grow future fuels.
Implenia's engineers could use that virtual world mock-up to remotely track the data center's power consumption and efficiency in ways that would have otherwise been tough without visiting the location.
Meanwhile, engineers hoped to use more sophisticated equipment to get a three-dimensional image of the sinkhole.

From there engineers hope to use still-tinier wavelengths the "extreme ultraviolet" light waves that measure 0.013 microns.

You must get permits where required, but are not required to use licensed engineers or architects.
Increasingly engineers are forced to use a limited set of Google tools for development.
FORBES: Where Larry Page must manage risk, and invest time, as Google's new CEO
The Autodesk Simulation Workshop is free online source of education modules that can be used to train the next generation of engineers in advanced materials use.
Even decades later, the lack of centralization allowed, for example, Airbus engineers in Toulouse and Hamburg to use different industrial-design software.
The Department of Energy will soon dispatch teams of energy engineers to the nation's 200 most energy-hungry factories and encourage their owners to follow the engineers' recommendations on reducing juice use.
In addition to standing up to deadbeat customers, Young championed Union Pacific's Fuel Masters Program, an employee-driven initiative that rewards the most efficient engineers with debit cards they can use to fill up their own vehicles.
Even electronic engineers who pioneered network computing in Japan use it badly.
And as the costs of rare earths increase while the dependability of Chinese supply decreases, the incentive only grows for engineers to come up with ways to use some other input.
To make growing your own food easier and more accessible, founder Britta Riley invited top industrial designers and engineers to design beautiful and easy to use systems made from environmentally friendly materials.
Part of his job is writing the clear, precise notes that lay out for engineers in hundreds of companies how to use the analog components Linear Technology makes to bring life to everything from hybrid cars to digital cameras.
It is a constant battle for engineers to tweak systems to get them to use up less volume and mass.
Because aluminum and steel have different properties, engineers have to look at different ways to use the metals to get desired results.
In the mid-1990s she remembers locking horns with fellow GM engineers over decisions such as which software to use to control robots and conveyors in its factories.
As most doctors don't know how to use those printers, hospitals need engineers to operate the printers and help convert images from computed tomography and other medical equipment to 3-D data that can be printed out.
In a building nearby, workers in navy-blue uniforms use computer-aided designs from Tata engineers to create tools and dies used to make those sheet-metal stampings.
We use the same boxes for training design engineers for the lock companies in how to think in order to figure out ways to compromise locks when the methods are neither apparent nor logical.

It will be spent on architects, structural engineers, consultants and liaising with communities about how they use the park.
Electrical engineers at Stanford University have created nanoscale optical lines that use much less power than the laser connectors found in computers today.
