(BrainyQuote) During the middle of 1700s, after important political and social revolutions in United States, France and Latin America, a new revolution in England transformed the way people lived and worked. This period, often referred to as the industrial revolution,…

dorsal fin is essential in steady swimming and maneuvering while producing a sturdy locomotor force. Function of the dorsal fin arch in teleost, demonstrate the morphological features of their locomotive design. Overtime, the Gadus teleost have evolved into having three dorsal fins. These fins control locomotive forces that allow for beneficial hydrodynamic maneuverability amongst this species. A semi flexible fin reinforced by fin-rays, an interior section reinforced by inflexible spines, and a…

er and stronger.It all started with animals and people pulling a wagon back and forth.Railways were created because it was difficult in those days to move people and goods by strength. Railways have changed the world on the movement of goods and people to an easier and faster way, but has a negative impact on rural areas. Richard Treverick was an engineering man that created the railway and other amazing inventions in his life.This man was born April 13,1771 and died April 22,1833. When he was…

For example when we cut Bohemian Rhapsody we could have used the time we spent practicing Great Locomotive Chase for like the thousandth time practicing a song that we actually needed to work on and not play because it was quick and easy. I think that the band as a whole should have practiced more. At my old school to be in band you had to every week…

the freight train were held by the hand brakes and air brakes, which gave the impression that the train was held only by the hand brakes, so the engineer and the rail traffic controller thought that the train was secure. Before the accident, the locomotive was reviewed by MMA’s repair shop eight months ago the accident, and MMA used a weak and not durable epoxy material that made the oil to concentrate in the turbocharger which produce fire the night of the accident. After the accident, the…

Benton, Attached are the documents and spreadsheets I put together today that we discussed this morning. The first document, Annual Depreciation Expense per Locomotive, shows various methods used to find rates and calculate leasing costs for locomotives. Pages 2-5 also provide example documentation for these rates. In this case the UP Depreciation Expense exceeds the AAR’s West Index in some cases, while CSXT’s expenses are significantly lower than the AAR’s East Index. The next document is a…

Influenced through encounters with China and the West, the Japanese explored mathematical topics that were relevant to their time, which led to Japan’s shift from wasan (和算, Japanese Mathematics) to yôsan (洋算, Western Mathematics) in the Meiji era, and ultimately various technological advancements. As seen in Japan’s first encounters with the west, Sakoku (鎖国, the national seclusion policy) was the direct result of distrust of the Christian missionaries, which led to limited trade of ideas. In…

It is hard to imagine what daily life might look like today without the effort of engineers, philosophers, and innovators across the globe. Throughout the history of human existence, there have been many inventions for both pleasure and function. The improvements of processes and tools have been built on small, gradual enhancements, as Friedel would define as Capture (Friedel, 4). He went to further explain Capture as “not only recording techniques, but also includes the processes by which a…

was not easy. The tone of this poem was a negative tone because Roethke used the words "beat" and "palm caked hard."
