Mechanical Engineering Expert Witnesses

Mechanical Engineering is the branch of engineering that studies objects and systems in motion. It applies Engineering standards and problem-solving techniques of engineering. Mechanical Engineering uses the principles of motion, energy, and force to make sure that product designs are safe, efficient, reliable, meets the needs of consumers, and can be competitively priced. Anything with moving parts needs the knowledge of a Mechanical Engineer. Our mechanical engineering expert witnesses, speakers, and consultants are scholars, researchers, and industry professionals with extensive field experience. Areas of expertise include: 

  • Accident investigation
  • Black box analysis
  • Combustion and propulsion
  • Elevators
  • Engines
  • Fluid mechanics
  • Heat transfer
  • Hydraulic equipment
  • Machine tools
  • Machinery assessments
  • Occupational kinetics
  • Precision machining
  • Robotics
They have worked with major corporations such as Boeing, Borg Warner, Caterpillar, Ford, General Motors, Honeywell, Lockheed Martin, and Westinghouse, and are authors of best-selling books and numerous scholarly articles. Our mechanical engineering experts have extensive experience providing litigation support.
