the least amount of deflection. The differences and similarities seen in the slopes in Figure 1 are caused mainly by material choice and cross-sectional area. It is clearly shown that material changes the slope of the curve based on the three rectangular beams. All three have approximately the same cross-sectional area and approximately the same area moment of inertia, so the only variable that is changing is the material. This is significant because it shows that material choice has a large…

In the case of Dakota Daulby, I was fully impressed with his ephemeral appearance, and I contacted him immediately for an interview. Recently, Dakota took some time from his frenetic schedule to answer a few questions about the extraordinary experiences and opportunities he has had throughout his career…

Most of the books and films about the Space Shuttle Challenger that I could locate focused on the technical side of the explosion.
