Part A: The Palace of Knossos is the most complex structure existing from the ancient Minoan Civilization on the island of Crete. It was built in the Minoan political center of Knossos by King Minos around 1900 BC. The palace is an extremely intricate building standing five stories with large, beautiful paintings on its walls known as frescos; it even had indoor plumbing. It is apparent that only the most important people in Minoan society lived in the palace because of its grandeur and beauty…
Three approaches were used in developing cost profile method; net cash flow, contract value data (value flow) and construction cost data (cost flow or cost commitment) by utilizing the three sides of the cash flow equation. Though significant deviation observed with actual and modeled forecast due to lack of addressing the risks impact inherent with construction industry. So in this paper it is focused to develop a model to predict the changes to baseline of cost flow…
Study Guide: Operations Management: refers to the administration of business practices to create the highest level of efficiency possible within an organization. Operations management is concerned with converting materials and labor into goods and services as efficiently as possible to maximize the profit of an organization. In other words, management of systems or processes that creates goods and/or provides services. Strategy: Strategies provide focus for decision making on how overall…
probability level of p=0.05 was considered as significant difference. The data obtained from the RSM on the hydrocarbon removal were subjected to the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the results were fitted to the following second-order polynomial equation (Vieira et al., 2009; Gomez and Sartaj, 2014): where Y is the predicted response (hydrocarbons removal), XiXj are the independent variables, β0 is…
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK AND RESEARCH METHODOLOGY In this chapter, the theoretical framework for the study and its methodology are presented here. Basically, it contains the model specification, model estimation techniques and sources and nature of data. The sample periods of the study span from 1980 to 2013. It is a period of 34 years. 3.1 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK Remittances are income transfers likely to affect wages and employment both at the household and macroeconomics levels. If leisure is…
Part 1 JEDR Critique 1.1. Condition Specifications There is a mistake in the calculation of the assumed wheel circumference. Based on the obtained data from JEDR report, the average wheel diameter is 406 mm and by using the circumference formula, 2πr, the result should be 1.275 m. However, JEDR report says the wheel circumference is 1.2 m. This number should be rounded up to 1.3 m instead of rounded down since this might give critical error in further calculations. The previous wheel…
CHML 1046 General Chemistry 2 Laboratory Experiment “The Rate Law of an Iodine Clock Reaction” Objectives: To apply method of initial rates for investigation of influence of concentrations of reactants on the rate of the reaction. Determine the rate law of a particular reaction experimentally. Observe the effect of catalyst on the reaction rate. Examine the influence of temperature on the rate of this reaction. Calculate activation energy for the reaction from rate constants at two…
arguments that not only try to show the existence of life, but also the existence of communicative civilisations. Frank Drake formulated the Drake equation one of the most famous one of these models. Rather than evaluate and quantify the number of civilisations, the equation yearned to inspire scientific dialogue at SETI ( Search for Intelligent life). The equation shows that the number of civilisations - N - is a product of certain variables such as the number of Sun like stars older…
reactant molecule, which is referred as unimolecular step. Also there may be a single collision between two molecules, which is referred as a bimolecular step. It should be noted that majority of the reactions that are written as a single reaction equation actually consists of a series of elementary steps or process. The main objectives for the study of chemical kinetics are: (a) To analyze the sequence of elementary steps giving rise…
