Recommend a good science/eng dictionary with pinyin ?

Postby bigal » November 19th, 2010 12:06 am

Can anyone recommend a science and engineering dictionary that has pinyin as well as characters ?

Need a general science and Engineering dictionary
also need a more specialised electronics one if they exist ?

For the general one need a coverage of materials science, physics , nanotech, mechanical and general engineering.

I've got an Oxford Concise English Chinese (at work - uni) and a full size oxford English - Chinese at home
plus pleco , dian hua and multiple others on iphone and pablo (uses cedict) and njstar on pc.
(Haven't got one for my macs or linux yet , might have a go writing a simple python front end to cedict myself)

As part of my capstone project(mini thesis at end of Engineering degree) I have to write a series of lessons
to use with the desktop wind tunnel I'm automating and I've been asked if I could write at least three lessons in chinese.
