    1) If Lincoln had lived, the events and outcomes of Reconstruction probably would have been substantially different. For example, the White House wanted a minimal Reconstruction policy where as Congress wanted a radical Reconstruction policy. Neither of these policies were like the one Lincoln wanted so obviously the outcome was different because of this. Also, Lincoln would have been much kinder to the South as they came back into the Union because he would want the South to be loyal to the Union.…

    A few weeks ago, I got a container full of “sludge”. I was asked to separate it into its four components and identify each one to help me better understand how to separate mixtures ad identify substances. My original sludge had a liquid on top and solid(s) on the bottom. The liquid was clear, and most of the solid was tan. There was a small layer of blackish/brownish particles in the middle of the tan solid. There were small yellow “rocks” visible on the surface of the tan solid. For the first physical observation, I tried smelling the mixture. It smelled like permanent marker. Next I tried sticking a spoon in it and stirring the tan solid lightly. It looked like it was an…

    A concrete mix was designed based on the BRE Manual Design of concrete mixtures. Then, a total of 40kg of the required proportions of Ordinary Portland cement which includes water, fine aggregate, and 20mm size crushed gravel coarse aggregate was weighed out. The materials are then batched and mixed in a pan mixer. Next, a slump test for the concrete mixture was carried out. The concrete mixture was then used to produce 4 no. 100mm cubes and two 500 x 100 x 100 mm prisms based on table 1.1. Finally, the specimens were labeled and covered for curing. Sieving was also conducted on the fine and course aggregate to produce a sieving analysis chart.…

    Fresh concrete is a homogenous mixture of water, cement, aggregates (coarse and fine), air and in some cases admixtures may be used. Admixture is used in certain cases to control rheology, rate of setting, hardening and durability. After mixing the constituent materials to produce a uniform blend, operations such as transporting, compacting, placing and the finishing of fresh concrete can all affect the properties of hardened concrete. It is important that the constituent materials remain s uniformly distributed within the concrete mass during the various stages of its handling and also that full compaction is achieved. Whenever these conditions are not…

    Textile sludge has been collected from (CETP), Tirupur and studied its chemical, physical and engineering properties. The collected sludge was dried to reduce its moisture content and then sieved to remove the dusts present in that. The sieved sludge was then mixed with the concrete cubes and mortar cubes in 4%, 8% and 12%. The cast specimens were then cured for 7 days, 14 days and 28 days. The cured specimens were tested for its compressive strength. Then hollow blocks, pavement blocks and mortar bricks were cast and cured for 7, 14 and 28 days. The cured specimens were tested for its compressive strength. The strength of the specimens was compared with the reference specimens. The strength of the specimens was found to decrease with increase in the…

    The mixing duration was varying 6 minutes to 30 minutes. The strengths were measured at the curing ages of 28 days using compressive strength machine. The results revealed that the compressive strengths of fly ash bricks appreciably increased with increase in mixing duration from 6 minutes to 15 minutes but remained almost constant beyond 12 minutes for 28 days ages tested. For example, at 6, 8, 10, and 12 minutes mixing; the compressive strengths at 28 days 2 were 147.15, 149.59, 158.54, and 197.72 kg/cm respectively while at 14, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes mixing ; the compressive strengths at 28 days were 212.83, 2 216.54, 216.59, 221.34 and 227.12 kg/cm .…

    Superhydrophobic

    Super-hydrophobic surfaces, as well as, low adhesion and friction are desirable for various industrial applications. Hydrophobic (water-repellent) surfaces can be constructed either by using low surface energy materials or by chemically treating surfaces with materials such as polytretafluoroethylene, silicon, or wax. Another technique that can be used to increase the hydrophobic properties of a hydrophobic surface is to increase the surface area by increasing surface roughness. If a surface is initially hydrophilic, then introducing roughness to that surface will make it even more hydrophilic. Wetting (hydrophilic property) is characterized by the contact angle of a surface and occurs when the surfaces has a contact angle of θ < 90°, whereas if the surface is hydrophobic, the value of the contact angle is greater than 90°. The contact angle depends on several factors, such as roughness, the manner of surface preparation, and surface cleanliness (Adamson, 1990; Israelachvili, 1992; Bhushan, 1999, 2002, 2005).…
