The First World War erupted only a decade into the twentieth century‚ and it defined civilizations for many subsequent years. Erich Maria Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front and Ernst Jünger’s The Storm of Steel both concern this war‚ however the two offer different perspectives of the war and its effects on societies and soldiers. The contrast between their accounts is seen in reactions to the enemy‚ feelings upon killing an “enemy” soldier‚ opinions of death in war‚ and reaction to the war

MEAN STRESS EFFECTS ON FATIGUE CRACK GROWTH AND FAILURE IN A RAIL STEEL 1. Increasing R (ratio of minimum to maximum stress) was found to both accelerate cracking and reduce the critical crack size at instability (alternating or pulsating loads? Or nearing fracture?) 2. The equation of Forman et al. relating crack growth rate to ∆K and R gave the best fit. It is used to predict life in the finite range of S-N curve. 3. Pulsating load = zero-to-tension loading 4. Fatigue crack growth

Homework #4 Name _______________ Lab Day/Time____________ Cardiovascular Dynamics This experiment examines the factors that effect blood flow through a blood vessel. The rate of blood flow is influenced by the pressure gradient in the vessel‚ the radius of the vessel‚ the viscosity of the blood and the length of the vessel. You will be asked to systematically examine each of these factors to determine their effect on blood flow. Getting Started: Login to a CAL lab computer using ZULU

systems No doubt taking a knowledge level perspective has greatly improved our understanding of what knowledge systems are and how we can build them. For example‚ it has provoked a profound shift in knowledge acquisition: rather than extracting knowledge from an expert the aim of knowledge acquisition is to build a consolidated model of an expert ’s problem solving behaviour in terms of knowledge. Nevertheless the knowledge level is not beyond critique and several authors have pointed out problems with
