OVERVIEW
There will always be problems to be solved around us. As long as there are needs to be served, problems will be there preventing them from being fulfilled. Engineering-based problems are unique. Normally, an engineer will try the best to provide the quickest solutions. The understanding of the problems may not be as systematic as one would hope for. And, this impromptu approach in solving problems normally lead to half-baked solutions and derivative problems. The prerequisite to solving any problem is to be able to fully understand the problem in hand. There are many research techniques available for engineers to use in order to understand the underlying issues in the problems faced. A proper understanding of the problem will allow the engineer to explore different path of determining the best solutions. In this talk, I will share some research techniques employed by researchers in academia to solve some of the technical and engineering-based problems. The sharing will enable listeners to appreciate the general processes for problem-solving especially in complex and multi-faceted engineering problems.
