Assignment No. 3 CE 332: Geotechnical Engineering 1. Calculate the vertical stress in a soil mass at a depth of 5m vertically below a point load of 5000 KN acting near the surface. Plot the variation of vertical stress with radial distance (up to 10 m) at a depth of 5 m. 2. Three point loads 10000 KN‚ 7500 KN and 9000 KN‚ act in line 5 m apart near the surface of soil mass. Calculate the vertical stress at a depth of 4 m vertically below the centre (7500 KN) load. 3. Determine the vertical

Should the engineers apply ‘rhetoric strategy’ to popularized technology? Abstract Nowadays‚ it is common for engineers to overpromise or exaggerate the technology’s advantages while neglecting its potential disadvantages in order to get more attention and investment‚ which is actually a form of ‘rhetoric strategy’. In this paper‚ the notion of ‘rhetoric’ in term of technical field will be briefly defined‚ including the definition‚ the applying stages and connection with ethic issues. To develop

Samuel Haynes English 1101 – Mechanical Engineering Professor Raymond October 15‚ 2012 ME At the start of the Industrial Revolution‚ in the 18th century the steam engine was first produced. From this production it gave an enormous start to all machinery of any type and every type. As a result‚ a new major classification of engineering was formed due to the intuition of machines and tools being developed. Soon after this‚ the Institution of Mechanical Engineers was founded in Birmingham‚ England

Weston argues that “it’s our responsibility to seek out the facts-honestly and persistently” (pg. 233). The topic of genetic engineering has made for a discomforting discussion between many conservatives and liberals. My own view is that genetic engineering should be banned because I feel it’s extremely unethical to use biomedical technologies to eradicate those with unfavorable disabilities‚ and predetermine one’s destiny. At this point in time‚ its safety and reliability are extremely questionable

The engineering field I have chosen is Mechanical Engineering. Mechanical engineering is a very broad field; mechanical engineers have the opportunity to work in a wide spectrum of fields. Some mechanical engineers can work for a company testing and improving upon their products. Mechanical engineers love to take things apart and to find out how they work. This being the basis for mechanical engineering it gives a mechanical engineer many options so you won’t ever be bored. Mechanical Engineers rely
