Meshing of knuckle joint Figure 8.1 meshing of knuckle joint 8.2 Constraints applied on knuckle joint for analysis Figure 8.2 constraints applied on knuckle joint CONCLUSION After studying knuckle joint used in tractor-trailer then after making design and analysis of knuckle joint for stresses and deflection the following conclusions can be drawn: From the above results and discussion, Knuckle joint was design for 52860 N axial load by theoretical calculation. From theoretical…

Trampolines are very fun toys, is an activity loved by people of all ages. A trampoline is an object consisting of a piece of taut, a strong fiber extended over a steel frame using many springs, the fabric used on the trampoline bed has certain elasticity, the elasticity is generated by the springs connected to the frame, which store potential energy (the stored energy of position of an object). The first trampoline to be invented, was invented by a trapeze artist called Du Trampolin, he…

Forsythe and Balanchine looked for the mathematical shapes of classical ballet to extend the movements to create longer lines of the human body, similar to architectural renderings. Architecture shaped Balanchine and Forsythe’s work. Associating with different architects, Forsythe educated himself on spatiality and structure to construct the dancers’ bodies. Although Balanchine’s movement applied math to elongate the dancer’s body, Forsythe constructs movements based on researching physics. In…

Harold Sandoval, 08 Apr 17, article review assignment, hasa03953, BBS 100 Wk. 7 The assigned reading material for this week of the course is authored by Nathan Foster, and titled "The effects of Meplat on terminal ballistics". The article appeared on ballisticstudies.com (http://www.ballisticstudies.com/Knowledgebase/The+Effects+Of+The+Meplat+On+Terminal+Ballistics.html) Mr. Foster opened his article by providing a little backdrop on the word "meplat". It is French in origin, and means…

Sir Isaac Newton changed the perspective of many scientists during his life with his discoveries. Isaac Newton was born on January 4,1643 in Woolsthorpe, England and died on March 31,1727 in London. Sir Isaac Newton was a mathematician, physicist, and was a big contributor to the scientific revolution.Sir Isaac Newton was not only the son of a farmer, but he was also a premature baby and was expected to have a shorter lifespan than average people. When Newton was only 3 years old he was left to…

Lab 6: Energy The intent of this lab is to show the relationships of energy to a system. For this experiment, we had a spring attached to a car, which was attached to a string that went through a rotary sensor and had a weight attached at the end. By stretching the spring, and causing the weight to drop nearer to the ground and bounce up we were able to determine: the angle of the string and rotations; the car position; height of the weight bouncing up and down; velocity; the stretch of the…

Mauritas Cornelis Escher, also known as M. C. Escher, has been a well-known for his spectacular art of illusions. Born on June 17th, 1898 in Leeuwarden, Netherlands, his father wished for him to try to learn to become a carpenter and try other crafting skills (World of Mathematics 1). When he was out of elementary, he did not graduate from secondary school. He went to multiple schools to find his interest and when he was in the School of Architecture Ornamental Design located in Haarlem,…

On the Subject of Quantum Teleportation “Beam me up, Scotty” Captain James T. Kirk exclaims, as he narrowly escapes a macabre fate at the hands of the Klingon army. A beam of light is cast down onto the captain, instantaneously transporting him aboard the safety of his own starship. This technology, employing the use of teleportation, has saved many U.S.S. Enterprise crew members lives’ throughout countless episodes of the Sci-Fi TV series Star Trek. Teleportation being largely fictional at the…

Rosalind Elsie Franklin was a chemist and she was born in London England on July 25th, 1920. At just the age of 15 Rosalind Elsie Franklin decided she wanted to be a scientist. Receiving her education at several schools which also includes North London Collegiate School which she excelled in science. She was best known for the role she played in the the discovery of the structure of DNA, also her pioneering the use of X-ray diffraction. Franklin enrolled at Newnham College, Cambridge, in 1938…

In general, the experiment succeeded in demonstrating free-fall by dropping a tennis ball. Distance and time were documented to calculate velocity and acceleration, the quantities involved in linear kinematics. Graph 1 (distance vs. time) suggests a commonsensical relation - longer distance yields longer time. The only exception is at 1.0 m, where its time value (0.42 s) is less than that of a shorter distance (0.5s for 0.5 m distance). Average time was used to construct the graph, and there…
