This is an online reference site for engineers and engi- neering students who want a quick way to access a for- gotten formula. It also con- tains quick reference infor- mation regarding many engineering topics. It is a paid site—about Rs 300 per month or for students about Rs 1,800 per year. Currently you also get a pre- view period when you first access the site, so you can go through the actual contents before deciding on whether you want to become a member or not.

The Wikipedia entries are more than comprehensive. You have two resources on Wikipedia: the Engineering article, which is an overview of the entire discipline, as well as the engineering portal, which is a more in-depth look at the field and its many branches. What started out as independent branches of study are increasingly becoming strong in inter-disciplinary skill requirements. The portal will be useful in helping you keep up-to-date with the entire field while keeping you in touch with your branch of study as well.

Making the world’s knowledge computable

Wolfram|Alpha introduces a fundamentally new way to get knowledge and answers—
not by searching the web, but by doing dynamic computations based on a vast collection of built-in data, algorithms, and methods.

answer questions; do math; instantly get facts, calculators, unit conversions, and real-time quantitative data and statistics; create plots and visualizations; and access vast scientific, technical, chemical, medical, health, business, financial, weather, geographic, dictionary, calendar, reference, and general knowledge—and much more.
