02TTB204 Mechanics of Solids Part B Lab Buckling of Struts 1. Introduction The task was given to obtain the buckling stresses for pin-ended steel struts of various slenderness ratios and compare with theoretical predictions obtained using the Euler and Rankine-Gordon equations. 2. Theory The method of obtaining the buckling stresses followed was to use data show in Appendix A. From the record of applied load‚ P‚ against deflection‚ δ‚ a Southwell plot of δ against

invention in 1876 that Alexander Graham Bell invented what was known as the Photophone (fig 2). Using the same principle of Tyndell’s experiment—light reflection and refraction‚ in 1880 Graham Bell was able to use this device to transmit a sound through a beam of light. Graham Bell and his assistant used a sensitive selenium crystal and a

into beams making it easier for captains to see the shore lines before it was too late. The shape of a lens makes a big difference. The lens is a transparent piece of glass or plastic with at least one curved surface. There are two types of lenses used today‚ the convex lens‚ which is also commonly called the positive lens‚ and the concave lens. The glass or plastic surfaces of the convex lens bulge outwards in the center. This lens also makes a parallel light ray which passes through bending it

optimum design of the wing‚ there are several assumptions are made‚ The wing root thickness is 12% of the chord. The contribution of the auxiliary spar is neglected. The spar can be treated as tension field beam. The stringer/skin can contribute up to 50% of the bending moment‚ but the bending moment contribution of spar remains 100% because of safety. The material for the entire wing structure is AL2024-T3. The compressive strength of the material is equal to tensile strength of the material.

reinforcement of the cantilever beam did not have any development into the pier itself which caused the shear itself. The launching girder has failed due to the failure of the pier cap. This failure also caused the span between piers 67 and 68 causing it to be inclined supported by the ground on one end and the pier cap on the other. With the failure of the pier cap and span between piers the crane used for lifting the launching girder also failed on July 13th 2009. Bending of the crane shows the clear

Silencing and elapsing of cultures and traditions seems to have escalated immensely. However‚ for the sake of our future‚ there is strong importance in the need of these traditions endurance. Therefore‚ contemporary dance has the aptitude in defying these unjust cultural judgments. We see countless contemporary choreographers‚ today‚ merging momentous

The senses transmit sensory information’s‚ in the form of electrochemical impulses‚ to the brain. Different forms of energy stimulate the sensory receptors – the nerve endings and cells that detect sensory information. The sensory receptors then initiate neural impulses. Sensation occurs when the neural impulses arrive at the cerebral cortex. Neural impulses that begin in the optic nerve are sent to the visual areas of the cerebral cortex‚ and we see objects. Each person’s unique perception results
