Pre-IB Science Research Paper Wood vs. Aluminum The decades old debate over aluminum vs. wood bats will probably exist as long as the choice is available. Baseball was played with wooden bats for a great number of years. In fact‚ even with the advancements in aluminum bats‚ it’s the professionals who use wood bats and the amateurs who use the all-mighty aluminum bats. So‚ the question is which is better‚ wood or aluminum? Aluminum bats are used in most Little Leagues because they are lighter

The Aluminum Industry in 19941 and Aluminum Smelting in South Africa: Alusaf’s Hillside Project2 1) Is primary aluminum production an attractive industry? Why or why not? Within the framework of the Structure-Conduct-Performance (SCP) model3‚ the primary aluminum production industry (“the industry”) in 1994 can be described as perfectly competitive. The industry is characterized by a large number of competing firms – the largest of which has only 4.1% of total industry capacity; homogeneous

Recommendation Although aluminum prices are at relative historic low today‚ we recommend that Alusaf go ahead with plans to construct the Hillside smelter plant. Based on the following analyses‚ we project the price of aluminum to rise to approximately $1‚590 per ton in 5 years. This price exceeds the minimum required level of $1‚416 per ton to yield Alusaf a positive net present value (NPV) on its initial plant investment of $1.6 billion. Analysis of Hillside plant profitability At a minimum

Aluminum is the third most plentiful element in the earth’s crust. It is the second most widely used material in new cars and trucks in the world. Before aluminum foil was invented‚ food and other items were packed in tin foil. However‚ tin foil was too stiff to be malleable‚ and some experts feared that it might affect food adversely. History Although others have vied for the honor‚ history credits Hans Christian Oersted‚ a Danish chemist for the initial discovery of aluminum foil‚ 1n 1825. On

Thickness of Aluminum Foil August 21‚ 2014 Purpose: To determine the thickness of aluminum foil through the use of the density formula applied to gathered data. Theory: The thickness of aluminum foil cannot be directly measured. In order to find the thickness‚ many pieces of data must be obtained and used in the density formula. The data that must be obtained is the length‚ width‚ and mass of the aluminum foil. These need to be collected because they will complete the formula: Density = mass /

CIVE 3202 A6E – Mechanics of Solids II (Winter 2013) Experiment 2: Bending of an aluminum I-beam Introduction “Beams are long straight members that are subjected to loads perpendicular to their longitudinal axis and are classified according to the way they are supported”[1]. When a beam is subjected to an external load there are unseen internal forces within the beam that one must be aware of when implementing it into any design or structure. These internal
