Hello dp-ers I recently got a writing assignment from a student on dp. The assignment is a research project on a aeronautical engineering related topic where you consider your readers are from aeronautical engineering background . So basically it has to be something dealing with some technical aspect of aircraft . I really haven't written any thing similar before . I would like to have your help on this . The research project demands a very clear thesis statement. The thesis statement must include a subject and posses a stand on the same . It should also answer the ' So what ? ' Test . I ve decided to do it on the topic ' Newly found application of composite materials in a turbofan Engine ' . The thesis I could come up with is . I intend to organize the project in the following manner Start it of with a introduction. 1) I will first talk about turbofan engines and how they work 2) Then I shall discuss which metal parts of the engine are being replaced by composite materials. 3) Then I shall write about its implications 4) I shall write about various manufacturers who are using composite component in their engines . End it with a conclusion . What do you people think ? I could seriously use some quality suggestions .
A new application of ____ composite materials is as _____ in turbofan jet engines. This thesis will investigate the efficiency gains from using such materials. [Err, aren't all jet engines turbofan driven by definition?] No offence but you are nowhere near being able to do this task adequately. Sorry, just being honest.
Well, you're not the first person to take a project that's over his/her head. However, if you had left "student" out, you would have probably received more help. Sounds like the "student" didn't give you any information at all.
No all jet engines are not turbofans ! I was looking for some creative inputs . Doesn't seem like I am gonna get any !
This definitely sounds like a major pain in the turbofan! I wouldn't touch this sort of project with a bargepole, especially given the fact that it is a student thesis. Think of the long term implications. Even if, by some miracle, you managed to pull off a decent passable thesis, you are helping someone involved in aeronautical engineering - yes those people that help to keep aeroplanes in the sky! - to cheat their way to a qualification.
I am highly concerned that people who will eventually be keeping planes in the sky are hiring people from Digital Point to write their thesis. These are scary times, people.
