Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering‚ I plan to continue my education by pursuing a Master’s degree in Civil Engineering in the Geotechnical specialty. My interest in geotechnical engineering was sparked by topics such as the theory of consolidation‚ shear strength‚ and ground improvement methods introduced to me in my fundamentals of soil mechanics course. It was further cultivated when I began attending seminars presented by the geotechnical engineering program and participating in undergraduate research

up because he feels bad that it has died‚ but his neighbor‚ Mrs. Shear‚ comes out and believes that he just killed her dog. She immediately calls the police. When the police get to the scene they question Christopher‚ but they struggle understanding him because they do not realize he has Asperger’s. As the novel progresses Christopher comes to find out that his father killed the dog because he had been having an affair with Mrs. Shear and had gotten mad with her. During all of this Christopher is trying

model without compressible effect is designed for simulating incompressible flows. The incompressible Navier–Stokes equations are exactly recovered from this incompressible LBGK model. Numerical simulations of the plane Poiseuille flow‚ the unsteady 2-D shear decaying flow‚ the driven cavity flow‚ and the flow around a circular cylinder are performed. The results agree well with the analytic solutions and the results of previous studies. c 2000 Academic Press Key Words: Lattice BGK method; Incompressible Navier–Stokes

Ordinary sea waves and tsunamis are surface waves. Seismic events can produce both longitudinal and shear waves at the earth’s surface‚ resulting in earthquakes. Electromagnetic surface waves can occur at the interface between dielectric and con-ductive media or between two dielectrics satisfying appropriate boundary conditions. Air–salt water or glass–metal

In the ‘Catcher in the Rye’ and ‘The Curious Incident of The Dog In The Nighttime’ both books involve a teenage boy who is somehow separated from the rest of the world. In Mark Haddon’s The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Nighttime the protagonist‚ a fifteen-year-old boy Christopher Boone is faced with the challenge of battling his autism and the repercussions that come along with the mental illness. Christopher‚ due to the fact he is autistic‚ filters information much differently than most and
