About The Real Engineering
Born in the era of countless options
Nowadays we have more options and technologies available to work for us than never before. Internet, communications, access to knowledge, software, components and machinery are just examples of resources accessible for us in a straight forward way never seen before in history. Taking advantage of these options is in our hands!
The idea behind The Real Engineering is to demystify engineering through fully understandable content oriented to direct practical application.
Creating and sharing is the ultimate joy of life, so let’s get it on!
The author behind The Real Engineering: Fernando Torrijos
Hello everyone! Fernando here. I am a simple man who wants to spread some of the knowledge and experiences gathered through life in general and engineering in particular. I am an engineer who develops industrial machinery: mechanical design + automation.
After graduation I found out that real world problems require a different vision from the one presented normally in academia. Therefore, the aim of this site is to present basic concepts which are useful for real life applications.
I really like what I do for a living. Nonetheless, I enjoy doing many other things; I love debating, listening to other people, psychology, sketching, writing, sports and playing guitar. We are not only our job!
The joy of engineering is about laughing when remembering how badly you screwed things up in a given situation and how you managed to make it all work at the end!
Thanks for being here and enjoy the website!
Wishing you all the very best!
Fernando Torrijos
