\par Magnesium: As aluminum has been established as a leading role in automotive industry, the use of magnesium in automobile applications is yet limited. Magnesium exhibits a poor formability whereas aluminum has superior formability at room temperature. The main features of ductile magnesium alloys are that they have homogeneous microstructure which is free of brittle inter-metallic particles and having uniform plastic deformation promoted by its grain size as well as its crystallographic…

Bending Strength requirement This is the first body requirement and its task is to support all the vehicle subsystems. The body in static is going to suffer bending due to the weight of the components, passengers, fuel and cargo, Figure 42. Similar to a beam simple supported, the very first requirement is that the structure bend sufficient to absorb the energy due to the weight, but has to withstand the weight under different loading scenarios. Figure 42: Body loading under a static scenario…

Bond Strength and Stress slip of Lap splice reinforcement with Fiber Reinforced Polymer wrapped and unwrapped concrete beams with the confinement properties. Abstract: This paper describes the experimental results of different researchers to examine the properties and behavior of lap splice reinforcement in a concrete beam. Beam specimens were constructed and tested in the lab. The beam specimen was tested with monotonic (cyclic) and fatigue loading. The beam was divided into three groups:…

Examples of Resistance Training Exercises Abdominal Exercises: Clams= Begin by laying down on either right or left side of body. Begin to stack the hips and bend both legs, as the knees begin to point forward. Lay down and place the arm on the floor and ear on the bicep. Begin to lift the knees. Do not change the placement of the knees and hips. Begin to exhale while drawing in the abs towards the spine. This is a workout of 2 sets of 10 to 15 reps. Dipping toes : If in the first trimester,…

With obesity being a major problem in the United States, there seems to be many answers. Resolutions such as surgery, fad diets, and pills can be effective but often lead to not fixing the main problem. Not changing bad habits are the reason why obesity exists so high in America. Often time habits can come and go , but its when the bad ones stay is when its a problem. However, adding good habits to a routine can help benefit many aspects that the bad habits cannot. Exercise in an everyday agenda…

routine specifically designed with complex and thorough exercises using the latest equipment, then your training will improve and positive results will show on and off the playing field. The game of volleyball requires the player to have muscular strength in both the lower and upper body regions. In order to perform at a high level, volleyball players need a physical training program optimizing their biomotor abilities. The law of specificity states that there is…

“People exercising just 15 minutes per day have a 14% lower mortality risk than those who do not exercise and increase their life expectancy by three years,” stated Theresa Bebbington in WebMD Health News. Upwards of 300,000 deaths are linked to obesity or being overweight per year. Obesity is now the second leading cause of death that can be prevented in the United States. Exercising can reduce the risk of health problems and even death later in life. From lifting weights to aerobic exercise,…
