The past chapter proposed the continuous floating constraint and buckling column concept. In this chapter, a test setup is proposed to investigate its loading nature and validate the concept. A series of tests are performed, and the results are presented and discussed. The results of the tests conducted in this chapter will serve as measures in assessing the strengths and flaws of the initial concept, and point towards potential solutions. This group of tests varied two geometric parameters:…

Oligosaccharide structures are strongly associated with their potential biological activities. Despite the biological activities of oligosaccharides have known for years, the lack of structural details limits the study of their potential applications. A rapid and effective method for identifying oligosaccharides is desirable yet the complete structural characterization of novel oligosaccharides remains challenging. The high polarity nature and highly branching, isomeric structures makes…

His statement made me shudder with fear. It was the same fear that gripped my body at age 8 when I first glimpsed the Creature from the Black Lagoon. When the creature emerged from the inky, black pond on my family’s black and white RCA cabinet television and I imagined it crawling out of our neighbor’s dark-water irrigation pond, staggering into our backyard, scratching a hole in my bedroom wall with its barbed-wire claws and snatching me while I slept. Of course, I had an excuse; I had…

How viable is time travel? Time; it organizes our lives and universe into an ordered series of moments. At first thought, time is one of the most fundamental aspects of our lives and the world we know. However, time is in fact incredibly subjective; everyone experiences this indefinable concept differently. Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity is based upon the idea of frames of reference. A frame of reference is where an observer is situated. In order to develop a universal concept of time…

The aim of the Stress Concentration Experiment was to observe the stress concentration factor/feature for a set of mild steel specimens with various irregularities in each sample. These irregularities or “stress-raisers” include any notches and holes which vary in size (radius) and placement on the specimen (edge notches or holes) that may have an effect on the flow of stress. With the use of a Hounsfield 50 kN electrically operated tensile testing machine and 12 1-mm thick mild steel test…

Polymers Lab - IZOD Impact Test of Notched Polymer Introduction The IZOD impact test is a method used to determine the impact resistance of materials. The main objective of this experiment is to measure the impact strength of three specimens’ material by measuring the amount of the energy required to cause the material to fracture, using Avery Denison 6709 IZOD impact tester. Materials and Methods Apparatus: Three specimens with a machined 45° notch (V-Notch) at room temperature…

Chapter 1 • Quest -Knight -Dangerous Road -Holy Grail -At least one dragon -Evil Knight -Princess • Quest consists of five things: -A quester -A place to go -A stated reason to go there -Challenges and trials en route -A real reason to go there • The real reason for a quest is always self-knowledge. EX: A movie that follows the idea of a quest is Shrek. On top of having all the characteristics of a quest, including a knight, princess, evil knight, and at least one dragon, the movie is all…

This rib is also suitable for a variety of loading conditions. Forged ribs are manufactured using heavy press-machinery, and are used for sections where very high loads apply. Milled ribs are solid structures, manufactured by milling away excess material from a solid block of metal, and are also used where very high loads apply. The stringers on the skin panels run in the length of the wing, and so usually need to bridge the ribs. There are several methods for dealing with this problem. The…

Chapter 1: Every Trip Is a Quest (Except When It 's Not) Most stories include a quest, in which the main character of a story embarks on a journey and eventually learns something new. According to Thomas C. Foster, a quest consists of five things; (a) a quester, (b) a place to go, (c) a stated reason to go there, (d) challenges and trials en route, and (e) a real reason to go there. Every quest is educational, in which the quester gains self-knowledge. The stated reason for a quest is almost…
