ACI STRUCTURAL JOURNAL Title no. 106-S64 TECHNICAL PAPER A Practical Equation for Elastic Modulus of Concrete by Takafumi Noguchi‚ Fuminori Tomosawa‚ Kamran M. Nemati‚ Bernardino M. Chiaia‚ and Alessandro P. Fantilli Many empirical equations for predicting the modulus of elasticity as a function of compressive strength can be found in the current literature. They are obtained from experiments performed on a restricted number of concrete specimens subjected to uniaxial compression. Thus‚

An Ethical and Practical Defense of Affirmative Action Affirmative action has been the subject of increasing debate and tension in American society. However‚ the debate over affirmative action has become ensnared in rhetoric that pits equality of opportunity against the equality of results. The debate has been more emotional than intellectual‚ and has generated more tension than shed light on the issue. Participants in the debate have over examined the ethical and moral issues that affirmative

CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM PRACTICAL WRITE UP AIM: To investigate if momentum is conserved in two-dimensional interactions within an isolated system. HYPOTHESIS: Without the effects of friction the momentum will be conserved in the isolated system. In all three experiments the momentum before the interaction will equal the momentum after the interaction. METHOD: An air hockey table was set up and a video camera on a tripod was placed over the air hockey table. The camera was positioned so it was

Word Processed Practical Report Pendulum Aim: To investigate the relationship between the length of pendulum and the time it takes. Theory: Hence the gravitational acceleration “g” can be calculated by this equation: T=2πLg T=2πLg (T the period in seconds‚ l the length in meter and g the gravitational acceleration in m/s2) Method: As stated earlier in the introduction‚ it was decided to measure the time for 10 complete swings‚ in order to reduce

Year 10 Science Practical Report Big Bang Theory Introduction According to the scientific community‚ all the matter in the universe began in a very tiny‚ hot and compacted point. But what exactly caused this point to become the universe we know today? The “big bang” theory is the popular explanation for where the galaxies‚ stars and planets came from. At the moment of the big bang‚ the hot‚ compact point began expanding like a balloon‚ rather than an actual explosion like most people believe
