Abstract: A novel three-point method using a grating eddy current absolute position sensor (GECS) for bridge deflection estimation is proposed in this paper. Real spatial positions of the measuring points along the span axis are directly used as relative reference points of each other rather than using any other auxiliary static reference points for measuring devices in a conventional method. Every three adjacent measuring points are defined as a measuring unit and a straight connecting bar with

Solid Mechanics Lab Report Experiment to determine the Young’s modulus of an aluminium cantilever beam and the uncertainties in its measurement 1. Abstarct: The young’s modulus E‚ is a measure of the stiffness and is therefore one of the most important properties in engineering design. It is a materials ratio between stress and strain: E=σε Young’s modulus is a unique value for each material and indicates the strength of that material as well as how it will deform when a load is applied.

Hospital has decided to investigate the possibility of acquiring BEAM technology for brain imaging. This equipment will significantly improve the physician’s ability to locate abnormalities of the brain. Because reimbursement is uncertain and major expenditures involved‚ the governing body would like to explore the options of buying‚ leasing‚ or sharing County Hospital’s recently purchased BEAM machine. Physicians think that BEAM is critical to their practices and would prefer to keep patients

Wave Nature of Light Objective: The purpose of this lab is to investigate interference‚ otherwise known as the diffraction of light. A beam of light acts a wave‚ and we are able to use equations so calculate the wavelength of the light used. The diffraction of a straight edge demonstrates that light waves bend around straight edges‚ allowing light to enter an area of shadow. When waves are superposed‚ they reinforce each other when crests are in phase and cancel out when they are not in phase

CASE 2 Aaron Beam and the HealthSouth Fraud 1. Which of the “obstacles” to moral behavior do you see at work in Aaron Beam’s behavior and thinking? In Scrushy’s? An obstacle to Aaron Beam’s moral behavior is when he moved some of the business start up costs as expenses and lists them as capital investment‚ which inflates the company profit margins. Beam initially did this because of the pressure from Scrushy to make the company appear more profitable. Then‚ the cycle continues. 2. Explain how

Introduction! ! The Michelson Interferometer is commonly used to determine the wavelength of light or measure very small distances. It was invented by Albert Abraham Michelson and is commonly used in optical interferometry‚ a branch of physics involving a family of techniques one could use to extract information about waves by superimposing them. ! ! The original application of the Michelson Interferometer was to the famous Michelson-Morley experiment in 1887. Prior to Einstein’s

Coulomb’s Law Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate that the force between two stationary charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely to the square of the distance between them. Coulomb’s law tells us that the force between two charges depends (1) linearly on the strength of each charge‚ and (2) inversely on the square of the distance between them. Mathematically we would write this as . Procedures Part1 Begin by removing the right side

The Charge/Mass (e/m) Ratio of the Electron PHYS 0212: Introduction to Laboratory Physics Fall 2012 Abstract The experiment conducted demonstrated correlation between the charge and mass of an electron and the behavior of magnetic fields. The lab was divided into four parts. The first three parts were conducted with a compass that was used to locate the magnetic field lines around a bar magnet‚ a solenoid and then a pair of Helmholtz coils. As a result of these trials‚ our observations found
