Statement of Purpose
By: Wei-Yi Liu

In the light of global competition, Taiwan’s machinery industry is in urgent desire heading towards to fields of high precision and high stability. However, the most urgent issue is that over 90 % of machinery manufacturers is small-to-medium enterprises. With limited financial resources for research investment, these companies having a hard time maintaining their technological competitiveness. Through my undergraduate training and relevant work experience, I have a strong determination to dedicate myself to developing key technologies for the industry and become a leading researcher, focusing on the dynamic behavior of machines. I sincerely believe that I can make a great step towards this goal with the …show more content…

For instance, I undertook rigorous training within group projects in the course of Precision Machine design, and it helped me lay a solid foundation for machine design techniques, like tolerance design, layout design, and selection of machine elements. To meet the strength requirement, I also applied mechanics knowledge to carry out the stress-strain analysis of axle and attach great importance to machine component arrangement for minimizing avoidable loads. With these prerequisite training, my group even designed a plate-flipping machine, with all the details carried out, for example, gear reducer, linkage mechanism and detail drawings; furthermore, aside from fully understanding the physical properties of the mechanical system, I feel particularly satisfied in combining theory with computer-aided software for solving engineering problems. Specifically, I learned to utilize numerical method with Matlab for calculation of complex problems through the course Heat Transfer and Computer-Aided Engineering. As the mechanical system will be more complex in the future, it propels me to persist in learning more advanced theoretical knowledge and computer-aided engineering techniques to strengthen my ability to design an ideal
