Jared Diamond’s book Guns‚ Germs‚ and Steel discusses the topic of the ancient and current civilizations with an eye-opening argument. Diamond’s main argument is that civilizations developed based on the environment and not because of individual humans. In this book he summarized a history of the last 13‚000 years in civilization. Although his points were scattered he makes it clear that he believes strongly in environmental determinism‚ which is the belief that physical environment predisposes human

AISI316L Stainless steels (SS) are widely used in biomedical industries to produce orthopedic implants‚ screws‚ cardiovascular stents and other surgery devices because of their proper mechanical properties and corrosion resistance at low cost [1–5]. However‚ they have represented some premature damages when utilized in the body environment. This sort of steels is susceptible to pitting corrosion and release of Ni‚ Mo and Cr ions in body environment which can intensify the risk of cancer and inflammatory

The main reason for Europe to gain control and dominate the world is because of geographical determinism. Many people argue

1. Results Part 1: When samples of austenitic stainless steel are immersed in a sulphuric acid solution and are taken through a current‚ it may be observed that corrosion products are formed around the electrodes‚ to differing degrees. The reason for this is because when a uniform voltage is applied across the series of interconnected electrodes in the acid solution different potentials are obtained at each electrode and hence different electrochemical reactions take place. The products of these

INTRODUCTION Post independence‚ steel industry in India came under the regulatory framework of Government of India‚ which stipulated that steel industry be reserved under the public sector. It also stipulated that capacity creation and enhancement would require licensing‚ and that pricing and distribution of steel would be subject to govt. control. Nationalization of TISCO‚ that existed from before independence could not be carried out due to popular pressure[3]. Economic reforms were started
