Независимое инженерное общество со штаб-квартирой в центре Лондона.
Independent engineering society, headquartered in central London
Институт инженеров-механиков (IMechE) – это независимая профессиональная ассоциация и научное общество со штаб-квартирой в Лондоне, Великобритания, представляющее инженеров-механиков и инженерную профессию. Институт насчитывает более 120 000 членов в 140 странах, работающих в таких отраслях, как железнодорожный транспорт, автомобилестроение, аэрокосмическая промышленность, машиностроение, энергетика, биомедицина и строительство. Институт имеет лицензию Инженерного совета на оценку кандидатов для включения в его Реестр сертифицированных инженеров, инженеров-членов и инженеров-техников. Институт был основан Джорджем Стивенсоном в 1847 году в отеле Queen's в Бирмингеме и получил Королевскую хартию в 1930 году. Здание штаб-квартиры Института, специально построенное для него в 1899 году, расположено по адресу 1 Birdcage Walk в центре Лондона.
The Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) is an independent professional association and learned society headquartered in London, United Kingdom, that represents mechanical engineers and the engineering profession. With over 120,000 members in 140 countries, working across industries such as railways, automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, energy, biomedical and construction, the Institution is licensed by the Engineering Council to assess candidates for inclusion on its Register of Chartered Engineers, Incorporated Engineers and Engineering Technicians. The Institution was founded at the Queen's Hotel, Birmingham, by George Stephenson in 1847. It received a Royal Charter in 1930. The Institution's headquarters, purpose built for the Institution in 1899, is situated at No. 1 Birdcage Walk in central London.
Происхождение
Неформальные встречи, по слухам, проходили в 1846 году в доме конструктора локомотивов Чарльза Бейера на улице Сесил в Манчестере или, альтернативно, в доме Джеймса Макконнелла в Бромсгроуве после просмотра испытаний локомотивов на Лики-Инклайн. В них участвовали Бейер, Ричард Пикок, Джордж Селби, Арчибальд Слэйт и Эдвард Хамфрис. Бромсгроув представляется более вероятным местом для первоначального обсуждения, особенно учитывая, что Макконнелл был движущей силой в первые годы. 7 октября в отеле Queen's в Бирмингеме состоялась встреча для дальнейшего обсуждения этой идеи, и был сформирован комитет во главе с МакДоннеллом для реализации проекта. Институт инженеров-механиков был основан 27 января 1847 года в отеле Queen's Hotel рядом со станцией Керзон-стрит в Бирмингеме пионером железнодорожного транспорта Джорджем Стивенсоном и другими. Макконнелл стал первым председателем. Однако этот рассказ подвергается сомнению как часть тенденции Смайлза к преувеличениям, направленной на героизацию трудностей, с которыми сталкивались викторианские инженеры-механики в своих личных стремлениях к величию. Хотя между Стивенсоном и Институтом инженеров-строителей действительно существовала некоторая отчужденность, более вероятно, что основание Института инженеров-механиков было вызвано просто необходимостью в специализированном центре для растущего числа инженеров-механиков, занятых в развивающихся железнодорожной и производственной отраслях. В 1849 году к нему присоединился его сын, Роберт Стивенсон. Бейер стал вице-президентом и одним из первых представил доклады в Институт, а Чарльз Гич был назначен первым казначеем. На протяжении 19-го и 20-го веков пост президента занимали многие выдающиеся британские инженеры, в том числе Джозеф Уитворт, Карл Вильгельм Зименс и Гарри Рикардо. Институт располагался в Бирмингеме до 1877 года, когда переехал в Лондон и в 1899 году занял свою нынешнюю штаб-квартиру на улице Бёрдкейдж-Уолк.
Informal meetings are said to have taken place in 1846, at locomotive designer Charles Beyer's house in Cecil Street, Manchester, or alternatively at Bromsgrove at the house of James McConnell, after viewing locomotive trials at the Lickey Incline. Beyer, Richard Peacock, George Selby, Archibald Slate and Edward Humphrys were present. Bromsgrove seems the more likely candidate for the initial discussion, not least because McConnell was the driving force in the early years. A meeting took place at the Queen's Hotel in Birmingham to consider the idea further on 7 October and a committee appointed with McDonnell at its head to see the idea to its inauguration. The Institution of Mechanical Engineers was then founded on 27 January 1847, in the Queen's Hotel next to Curzon Street station in Birmingham by the railway pioneer George Stephenson and others. McConnnell became the first chairman. However, this account has been challenged as part of a pattern of exaggeration on Smiles' part aimed at glorifying the struggles that various Victorian mechanical engineers had to overcome in their personal efforts to attain greatness. Though there was certainly coolness between Stephenson and the Institution of Civil Engineers, it is more likely that the motivation behind the founding of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers was simply the need for a specific home for the growing number of mechanical engineers employed in the burgeoning railway and manufacturing industries. followed by his son, Robert Stephenson, in 1849. Beyer became vice president and was one of the first to present papers to the Institution; Charles Geach was the first treasurer. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries some of Britain's most notable engineers held the position of president, including Joseph Whitworth, Carl Wilhelm Siemens and Harry Ricardo. It operated from premises in Birmingham until 1877 when it moved to London, taking up its present headquarters on Birdcage Walk in 1899.
Пешеход в клетке
После переезда в Лондон в 1877 году Институт арендовал помещения по адресу: No. 10 Victoria Chambers, где оставался в течение 20 лет. В 1895 году Институт приобрел участок земли на Storey's Gate, на восточном конце Birdcage Walk, за 9 500 фунтов стерлингов. В 1943 году он стал местом планирования операции «Оверлорд» и вторжения в Нормандию Королевскими инженерными войсками (электриками и механиками). Также здесь проводились соревнования Formula Student – крупнейшее в мире студенческое автоспортивное мероприятие. Золотая медаль в области трибологии ежегодно присуждается за выдающиеся достижения в этой области. Финансирование осуществляется из Трастового фонда трибологии. Медаль была учреждена и впервые вручена в 1972 году. По состоянию на 2017 год она была вручена 39 специалистам из 12 разных стран.
Upon its move to London in 1877 the Institution rented premises at No. 10 Victoria Chambers, where it remained for 20 years. In 1895 the Institution bought a plot of land at Storey's Gate, on the eastern end of Birdcage Walk, for £9,500. In 1943 it became the venue for the Royal Electrical & Mechanical Engineers' planning of Operation Overlord and the invasion of Normandy. and Formula Student, the world's largest student motorsport event. The Tribology Gold Medal is awarded each year for outstanding and supreme achievement in the field of tribology. It is funded from The Tribology Trust Fund. It was established and first awarded in 1972. As of 2017, it has been awarded to 39 individuals from 12 different countries. +Tribology Gold Medal Laureates 791964Frank MasonEngineer in chief, Royal Navy801965Harold Norman Gwynne AllenPower Transmission811966Lord Hinton of BanksidePioneer of nuclear power821967Hugh Graham ConwayAero engines and gas turbines831968Arnold Lewis George LindleyChairman of General Electric Company841969Donald Frederick GallowayManufacturing and machine tool engineer851970John Lamb Murray MorrisonProf. Mechanical engineering Bristol University861971Robert LickleyAircraft engineer871972Lord StokesChief executive, British Leyland881973John William AtwellSteel industry and pump manufacture891974St John de Hold ElstubMetals901975Paul Thomas FletcherProcess plan and nuclear power plant911976Ewen McEwenChief engineer, Lucas921977Hugh FordProfessor of mechanical engineering, Imperial College London931978Diarmuid DownsInternal combustion engines941979James Gordon DawsonChief Engineer, Shell951980Bryan HildrewManaging Director, Lloyd's Register of Shipping961981Francis David PennyDirector, National Engineering Laboratory971982Victor John Osola/Vaino Junani OsolaProcess engineer, safety glass981983George Fritz Werner AdlerResearch Director, British Hydromechanical Research Association991984Waheeb RizkGas turbines at General Electric Company1001985Philip ForemanAerospace engineer1011986Bernard CrosslandProf. Mechanical Engineering, Queen's University Belfast1021987Oscar RoithChief Engineer, Department of Industry1031988Cecil Charles John FrenchInternal combustion engines1041989Roy Ernest James RobertsDirector, GKN1051990Michael John NealeTribology1061991Duncan DowsonProf of Fluid Mechanics, Leeds University, Tribology1071992Thomas Diery PattenOffshore engineering1081993Anthony Albert DentonOffshore engineering1091994Brian Hamilton KentDesign and engineering management1101995Frank Christopher PriceTechnical director1111996Robert William Ernest ShannonInspection engineering1121997Pamela LiversidgePowder metallurgy1131998John SpenceMetallurgy1141999James McKnightAutomotive1152000Denis E.
