Before we plunge in, let’s take a conceptual step back and think about what we mean by “design” in an engineering sense. Broadly speaking, science gives us the laws of nature, and detailed descriptions of physical structures. Whenever possible, these laws and descriptions are specified mathematically. In engineering design, we make use of our knowledge of nature’s laws to build useful machines. A simple balance provides a mechanical example of what we do when we design a machine.
