For the past two decades, more research efforts have been focused on the development of Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS). The AHSS include Dual Phase (DP) steels, [1–10], High Strength Low Alloy steels (HSLA), Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steels, Twinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) steels, and medium manganese steels, (Bouaziz et al., 2013). The majority of the research are focused on the development of third generation of steels due to interest in the mechanical properties of…

The movie Flubber and 9th grade physical science discussed at lot some of the same topics. They both talked about polymers, physical properties, states of matter, catalyst and different types of energy. In this essay I will explain the movie Flubber, while still making the connections to this year's physical science class. In the beginning of the movie, the professor mentions a “propulsive polymer”. We have learned about polymers in chapter twenty-four. We learned that a polymer is a large…

This oil is sometimes referred to as "the tears of the Arizona" or "black tears." In a National Geographic feature published in 2001, concerns were expressed that the continued deterioration of the Arizona's bulkheads and oil tanks from saltwater corrosion could pose a significant environmental threat from a rupture, resulting in a significant release of oil.[15] The National Park Service states it has an ongoing program that closely monitors the submerged vessel's…

The Arctic. The last available source of untapped wealth in the form of natural resources Earth has to offer, and every country who can lay claim to it will try. The diminishing ice surrounding the North Pole means that it is now open to exploration and geological mapping to countries with an Arctic border, such as Canada, Denmark, Russia, Norway, and the United States. Every one of these countries are beginning to establish a presence in the Arctic (Smith, 2010, p. 651-652) due to the U.S.…

Do you know the damaging effects animal product testing has on animals? How would you feel if someone told you that your own pet had to go through animal product testing? There are over 25 million of lab animals that go through animal product testing in a year and it is merely atrocious to know what animals have to undergo. Although animal product testing is one of the main way scientists test products, animal product testing is inhumane, and should come to an end. Animals are treated inhumanely…

things about The Golden Gate Bridge) The Golden Gate bridge was known for its orange color. In fact, the steel that arrived in San Francisco to build the Golden Gate Bridge was coated in a burnt red and orange shade of primer to protect it from corrosion elements. And because of this caused the orange color of the bridge. (6 Things You May Not Know About the Golden Gate Bridge) It cost $35 million dollars to be made and $39 million dollars in interest.

I live in Ocean View (The Big Island), Hawaii. According to an article, due to Hawaii’s location in relation to the Ring of Fire in the Pacific Ocean and it’s volcanoes, Hawaii is at great risk of tsunamis and earthquakes. As previously stated, Hawaii has volcanoes; most notably, Kilauea. Kilauea is an active volcano that could cause serious property damage and could be harmful to life. In accordance with a Hawaiian travel guide, Hawaii records about one tsunami per year and a damaging tsunami…
