There are two main sources of engineering technical papers: one is the technical summary of existing engineering project practice, and the other is the forward-looking prediction of the feasibility of applying some new technologies to engineering projects.
1) technical summary
Engineering projects generally include project establishment, design, procurement, construction, trial operation and other stages. There are a lot of successful experiences and failure lessons in each stage, and the engineering technology summary can cover the above stages. Excellent engineering technology summary should be transformed into engineering technology papers for the vast number of engineering and technical personnel to exchange experiences and share achievements. Therefore, a large number of engineering technical papers come from successful engineering technical summaries.
2) Scientific research achievements
Only the industrialization of scientific research achievements can promote social progress and the sustainable development of science and technology. Applying scientific research achievements-new technology to engineering practice is an important means to realize the industrialization of scientific research achievements. However, the general scientific researchers are very rich in theoretical knowledge, but their awareness of engineering practice is far less than that of engineers and technicians who have worked in the front line for a long time. Therefore, engineers and technicians should assume the responsibility of judging the application of new technology in practical engineering projects and predicting its feasibility. This judgment and foresight can also be translated into engineering papers. This judgment and foresight are also based on practice, and such papers should give guidance on how to implement or the feasibility of implementation in the future.
Characteristics of engineering papers
(1) is practical.
Different from other scientific research papers that emphasize theoretical analysis and research, the laws or methods described in engineering technical papers all come from practice, which have been tested by engineering construction practice and gained success or lessons. It is a "results first" model, so it has strong practicability, and the laws, experiences or methods mentioned in it can be reused in other similar projects.
(2) strong timeliness
Engineering technical papers are the product of applied science in engineering field, and also have the typical characteristics of applied science, that is, strong timeliness and short duration. This kind of achievement is always aimed at a certain stage of technological development. This technological achievement is novel at the present stage, but it may not be novel in the next stage. At present, this technical scheme or method is reasonable or most suitable, but after this period of time, new technologies may replace it.
(3) Strong novelty
The novelty of the thesis proposition is usually also the place to pay attention to when choosing the proposition. The novelty of proposition should not fully reflect the novelty of proposition content. For the propositions of existing papers, we can observe them from another angle and reflect different problems. Therefore, when writing a thesis, in order to pursue novelty, we should pay more attention to whether the issues and contents discussed are novel.
The theorization of engineering practice experience is of great significance for the establishment and renewal of scientific theories and systems in the field of engineering technology. The important means to theorize engineering practical experience is to write engineering technical papers. Engineering technical papers are the basis of engineering technology theorization. Only when the vast number of engineers and technicians devote themselves to the writing of engineering papers with high enthusiasm, and use them to promote achievements and exchange information, can engineering technology make great progress and innovation.
