            The my mentioned “all of it” includes excel :) but nowadays we a bit by bit transition to python

            Pretty much anything dynamics related. Starting basic displacements, velocity, acceleration integration for simple dynamic systems to more complicated equations for wind and spinning rotor interaction induced vibrations in wind turbines.

              If you do not work with dynamics, for statics there are still a lot of encounters with deferential equations. Euler-Bernoulli Beam theory or plate and shell theories can be used for times when you want to solve more complex problems for which predefined equations do not exist and you do not have access to expensive fea software.

      As an engineer I don’t get to use any of it very often. I’m always excited when I get to do any actual engineering instead of project management.

        You can always try to pivot from project management to actual engineering. I am load engineer for wind turbines and everything is time dependant and dynamic. For past 10years i use every bit of math I learned is school and uni.

          I’m a chemical engineer who landed in environmental remediation. I’m trying to get into design engineering, but it’s been slow.

      You guys still use math? The most I get to do is centering a picture in PowerPoint

      (Thankfully I will soon be going to do real work but man was that a weird little diversion)
