convection currents as the most likely mechanism for plate motions. The cover of convective modes may appear as resulting from plate tectonics: large-scale flows driven by plates causing small scale convection in the upper mantle or held captive in a low viscosity zone underneath the lithosphere. The start of secondary flows could be responsible for the flattening of seafloor subsidence determined for lithospheres older than 70 Ma. (Dubuffet‚ et. al.‚ 2000). The short version is that when something is heated

and glaciation (plucking) the glacier forms the valley. This means that through the violent nature in which the glacier travels downslope‚ it weakens and takes off some of the rock from the mountain. Along with this‚ glaciers have a much greater viscosity than a river‚ which restricts the course of the glacier‚ keeping it relatively straighter and smoother. Through this abrasion and glaciation‚ the ice sometimes begins to thaw. This then allows the large rocky material‚ now small boulders to be deposited

It is a liquid product containing bitumen to a great extent in an aqueous medium. Bitumen is in a very finely divided state and it is suspended in the aqueous medium with the help of some suitable stabilizing agents. Bitumen emulsions have a low viscosity compared to the bitumen from which they are produced and can be workable at ambient temperatures. Class 4. Bitumen emulsions can be divided into four classes: The first two are most widely used : 1) Cationic emulsions. If an electric potential

Pre-heating Fuel for Charge Homogeneity to Improve Combustion Abstract – The idea of the automobile engine that people have is of one that is bygone. The automobile engine today is the pinnacle of engineering expertise‚ implementing the best of technologies and undergoing the best of manufacturing processes to make the closest possible achievement to perfection‚ from design to combustion. The art of perfection though starts much before the process itself. In case of the automobile engine

Three different types of lubricant and the purpose they serve: Glasses: Glass is used as a Lubricant for having high viscosity. Usually glass is solid but in high temperature it becomes viscous. Viscosity is a function of temperature but not of pressure which depends on the type of glasses. In addition having poor heat conductivity makes glass useful. Glass works as a thermal bar between hot components. Usually
