Finally the chair stand will assess leg strength, which is essential for balance, mobility and independence. (See attachments for detailed protocol) Once baseline measures have been established, subsequent fitness checks will…

Hence the reason to why pure metals are dissolved with other elements such as: carbon for mild steels. Metal alloys have increased strength and hardness. The structure of alloys reduces the space between each ion, so there is less space for delocalized electrons and it improves the chemical bond with each element within the…

    column. The resulted behavior is believed to be much degraded beyond the peak point due to dilation in concrete when using inadequate amount of confinement material (Harries and Kharel 2003). After the peak load was reached, the decrease in axial strength was more remarkable for larger dimensioned specimens. For instance, the axial stress decreased suddenly by 14% and 41.8% for specimens R1.5H2CL3 and R2.0H2CL3, respectively, comprising softening region as a second portion of the overall…
