Engineering Calculators

19 interactive calculators for the hand calculations hardware engineers actually do — beam deflection, bolted joint preload, press fits, tolerance stack-up, thermal resistance and more. Every input is a slider, every output updates in real time, and every calculator draws what it computes.

Each formula is implemented from a published reference — Shigley, Roark, VDI 2230, ASTM, IPC — and verified against hand-computed test vectors that run in CI. Where a model makes a simplifying assumption, the assumption is stated on the calculator rather than buried.

Structural

Bending, shear and deflection for beams and cantilevers.

Fastening

Preload, torque, thread strength and interference fits.

Springs

Rate, stress and solid height for compression springs.

Sealing

Squeeze, gland fill and gasket sealing force.

Analysis

Statistical tolerance methods and process capability.

Thermal

Heat spreading and junction temperature through the thermal resistance chain.

Circuits

Trace resistance, dividers, contact resistance and crystal oscillators.

Power

Switching regulators, power-stage losses and PDN impedance.

Signal Integrity

Controlled impedance and high-speed interconnect.

Optics

Near-eye display geometry and magnetic hold force.
