of the art on Bio-cutting fluids in Machining Submitted by: Abstract The increasing attention to the environmental and health impacts of industrial activities by governmental regulations and by the growing awareness level in the society is forcing industrialists to reduce the use of mineral oil-based metalworking fluids as cutting fluid. Cutting fluids have been used extensively in metal cutting operations for the last 200 years. In the beginning‚ cutting fluids consisted of simple oils

The Difference Between Psychopaths And Sociopaths In A Nutshell Oftentimes‚ we think of the terms “psychopath” and “sociopath” as being used interchangeably to describe people who have no conscience and act with no regard to others; in fact‚ the terms were once fairly interchangeable. Now‚ however‚ “psychopath” is usually used in regards to someone who has crossed the line into the criminal element‚ while a sociopath is of little danger to those around them. A psychopath is the more dangerous of

When people want exact same treatment for each individual‚ they are actually fighting for sameness rather than equality. Sameness is defined as each person treated the exact same; no individual is superior or inferior to another‚ so there is no difference between individuals. Over the centuries the terms equality and sameness have become interchangeable

Philosophers say the key to understanding human life is answering the really philosophical questions such as why are we here? Where did we come from? Where will we go? And so on and so forth. This has truly been a debate for the ages in philosophy‚ one that has stimulated thinkers‚ philosophers‚ theologists and scientists for thousands of years‚ hence led emergence of idealism and realism as two major traditional philosophical schools of thought in the realm of philosophy. So this paper projects

interstitial fluid‚ and intracellular fluid are identical‚ but the quantity of each substance varies among the compartments. The most striking differences are the low protein content in interstitial fluid compared with intracellular fluid and plasma and the fact that sodium and chloride ions are largely extracellular‚ whereas most of the potassium ions (approximately 90%) are intracellular. This unequal distribution of ions results in a voltage difference across cell membranes. Extracellular fluid can be

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FLUIDS 1 Torricelli’s barometer used mercury. Pascal duplicated it using French wine of density 984 kg m-3. Determine the height of the wine column for normal atmospheric pressure. 2 A vertical off-shore structure is built to withstand a maximum stress of 109 Pa. Is the structure suitable for putting up on top of an oil well in the ocean? Take the depth of the ocean to be roughly 3 km‚ and ignore ocean currents. 3 A hydraulic automobile lift is designed to lift cars with
