In the late 90’s it wasn’t too common to hear about a student bringing in a loaded gun to school. In the case of the two students arrested on gun charges is a different story. It was the beginning of the school year‚ so there shouldn’t have been any quarrels. However‚ in Clearwater‚ Florida local high schools have been receiving bomb threats and fights have been breaking out at different schools in Pinellas County‚ Florida but that didn’t stop Christopher Bloom and Christopher Brown from bringing

In Theo Padnos’ memoir‚ My Life Had Stood a Loaded Gun: Adolescents at the Apocalypse: A Teacher’s Notes‚ he recounts his journey in discovering his career choice and his adventures of being a part-time teacher in a county prison. Discussing the variety of prisoners that came in and out of the Woodstock jail‚ Padnos reveals his relations with the prisoners. Padnos starts off describing the tediousness of the work in graduate school and how the‚ once fun‚ aspects of analyzing text no longer appealed

The milgram experiment. The three people involved were: the one running the experiment‚ the subject of the experiment a volunteer‚ and a person pretending to be a volunteer. These three persons fill three distinct roles: the Experimenter an authoritative role‚ the Teacher a role intended to obey the orders of the Experimenter‚ and the Learner the recipient of stimulus from the Teacher. The subject and the actor both drew slips of paper to determine their roles‚ but unknown to the subject‚ both slips

Problem Description: The main purpose of this report is to show how to solve a 3-D finite element model of a cantilever I-shape beam‚ which is subjected to two concentrated loads (P = 1600 lb.) at the flanges of the free end along z axis. In this assignment‚ a convergence study will be used to determine the convergence of the solution with respect to mesh refinement. In addition‚ it will be used to achieve an accurate solution for problems that have sufficiently dense mesh‚ which cannot be solve

Objective The objective of this experiment is to compare the theoretical internal moment with the measured bending moment for a beam under various loads. Introduction and Background Theory Definition of a Beam Members that are slender and support loadings that are applied perpendicular to their longitudinal axis are called beams. Beams are important structural and mechanical elements in engineering. Beams are in general‚ long straight bars having a constant cross-sectional area‚ often classified

A. Stanford Prison Experiment- In this experiment‚ students volunteered to be a part of a psychology experiment that was being conducted at Stanford College. Because of the situation around them‚ they conformed to the environment‚ even though it was only a simple experiment in a Stanford hallway. Embarrassed and yet impressed‚ the experimenters stated this‚ “The negative‚ anti-social reactions observed were not the product of an environment created by combining a collection of deviant personalities

Monica Perez Experiment 8: Acetylsalicylic Acid Experiment 01/25/2013 CHM Lab- 2211 Sec 0016 Instructor: Jennifer Reed Introduction: Commonly used as Aspirin‚ acetylsalicylic acid is an analgesic (pain reliever)‚ which is one of the products of the esterification reaction between salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. This esterification occurs since the hydroxyl group from the salicylic acid reacts with acetic anhydride to form an ester. In this experiment‚ we will be able to recreate

In this photo by Lewis Wickes Hines titled “Riveters attaching a beam”‚ we see four men working in a dangerous workplace‚ on top of the Empire State building mid-construction‚ with no visible safety measures in place. There are no women at this worksite‚ which is understandable because during that time‚ women were the stay at home housewives. This photo is my favorite because the men don’t look fazed by the height at all. Hines took a direct approach when sharing the workplace of these men‚ there

Bending Moment EXPERIMENT 2B: SHEAR FORCE AND BENDING MOMENT 1. ABSTRACT Performance-based design approach‚ demands a thorough understanding of axial forces. Bending characterizes the behavior of a slender structural element subjected to an external load applied perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of the element. By this experiment we can verify the limit load for the beam of rectangular cross-section under pure bending. Moments at the specific points are calculated by the method of statics
