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

Archimedes’ & Pascal’s Principle Purpose In this lab‚ we will prove Archimedes’ Principle by finding the density of a Metal Cylinder‚ a cork‚ and an unknown fluid by using Archimedes’ Principle. We will also use the PASCO Pascal’s Principle Lab Setup to investigate the use of fluid pressure as a hydraulic system to do work and we will find its mechanical advantage. Procedure For the first part of the lab we will be verifying case 3 as explained by professor. We

Temp. 25 C Pressure 76.0 Indirect Measurement of Volume INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate an indirect measurement of volume. This was done by determining the volume of a single drop of using a graduated cylinder to measure a known amount of consistent drops‚ which allows for the individual volume to be determined mathematically. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Pipette‚ 10ml graduated cylinder‚ water‚ rubbing alcohol and hand soap. A pipette was used to place

Constellation In modern astronomy‚ a constellation is an internationally defined area of the celestial sphere. These areas are grouped aroundasterisms (which themselves are generally referred to in non-technical language as "constellations")‚ which are patterns formed by prominent stars within apparent proximity to one another on Earth’s night sky. There are also numerous historical constellations not recognized by the IAU or constellations recognized in regional traditions of astronomy or astrology

Logan Epling English 101 Dr. Underwood 2 December 2016 Night Ride I believe Gurney Norman’s “Night Ride” is a story that shows coming of age very strongly. It shows how life still is today in Kentucky. I am very familiar with the area where the story takes place. The bullet holes in the road signs are actually there as described in the story. “Steer this thing‚” said Delmer‚ letting go of the wheel without slowing down in the slightest. Wilgus took the wheel as his uncle leaned out the window and

Have you ever heard somebody complain about a problem but never do anything to fix it? That is what is happening to the Florida Everglades. Over a hundred years ago American settlers drained and annihilated this to be national park that was home to countless species of wildlife. Many of the problems still continue today and are about the the water supply. There are many problems that the Everglades is facing. First‚ according to the sources one and two‚ humans have drained and reduced the Everglades

The following results presented in this study talks about the awareness of the people in Albay as to the importance of watershed to them and of Quinali a River Watershed in general. The results of this study will determine on how ordinary Albayanos define and value the importance of a watershed to their lives as a human being. The Quinali Watershed’s contribution to the community in Albay is being highlighted as to its significance to the residence of Albay. The results of this study is also an avenue

definition of the issue - what is it Land management is the process of managing the use and development of land resources. Over the past few two centuries of exploitation on our land resources‚ has taken a heavy toll on our soils. What are the causes of this issue? e.g land degradation‚ salinity and overgrazing Firstly‚ land degradation is any change in the land that reduces its existing or potential productivity. It commonly occurs wherever the natural balance in the landscape is changed by
