Moreover, metallic bonds have a simple crystal lattice in solid state and are the weakest primary chemical bonds. Hence the reason to why pure metals are dissolved with other elements such as: carbon for mild steels. Metal alloys have increased strength and hardness. The structure of alloys reduces the space between each ion, so there is less space for delocalized electrons and it improves the chemical bond with each element within the…

Exercise “True enjoyment comes from activity of the mind and exercise of the body; the two are ever united” (Wilhelm Von Humboldt). With this being said it shows that happiness is linked to exercise. When the mind and body are exercised this causes for a person to be happy. Furthermore, exercise helps create a positive balance in everyday stressors causing a person to be happy. Regular exercise causes happiness because it improves mental, social, and physical health. Exercise causes an…

compressive strength of 43.7 MPa. The introduction of filler content, as at only 10%, is able to reduce water content dramatically to w/b=0.27, leads to the impressive improvement of compressive strength to 85 MPa. Further increase of filler content to 40% results in higher reduction of water content to as low as w/b=0.21 with only a marginal increase of compressive strength to 87 MPa. Testing results have shown that ternary M-S-H binder systems of MgO-SF-QF have higher compressive strength,…

dependence of compressive strength on water content of ternary systems. As w/s decreases, total water content in the mix decreases and results in increased strength, except two mixes in series 4 (S4.30 and S4.40). These two mixes include very high filler content at 30-40% in which the decrease of water content might not compensate the strength loss due to the reduction of cementitious materials (MgO + SF). From this figure, the effective range of w/s to achieve the highest strength is found in…

column. The resulted behavior is believed to be much degraded beyond the peak point due to dilation in concrete when using inadequate amount of confinement material (Harries and Kharel 2003). After the peak load was reached, the decrease in axial strength was more remarkable for larger dimensioned specimens. For instance, the axial stress decreased suddenly by 14% and 41.8% for specimens R1.5H2CL3 and R2.0H2CL3, respectively, comprising softening region as a second portion of the overall…

My Lifting Philosophy I have always been a fan of the traditional deadlift. It is a staple of every routine as well as being an excellent exercise to engage and work your hamstrings. While the positives of this lift are well known, and the benefits are evident, recently I have started to fall in love with the trap bar deadlift. While these exercises both have the word "deadlift" in their name, they are not interchangeable. Regular deadlifts primary muscle group is the hamstring whereas the trap…

PE Coursework Strengths The sport I have chosen is football. One of my main strengths (components of fitness) in football is my speed. The definition of speed is the ability to move quickly across the ground or moving limbs rapidly to grab or throw. In football, you use your speed for e.g; When you’re attacking and you are dribbling past a defender, you can use bursts of speed to blow past him. This means I get closer to the goal and have a better chance of scoring for me and my team. Also,…

The Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan (BBB) locomotor scale The Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan (BBB) scale (numbering 0–21) is a point scale used in the analyzation of the activity of the limb joints of animals. Its locomotion rate is based on various aspects of the hind limb function like the weight support and toe clearance, just to mention a few [37]. All results were obtained at time points of 2 weeks to 8 weeks post-operation along with the blinded examination that was executed by two scorers.…

TASK 4(P4):- Discuss the effect of loading structural material 1) You need to discuss the effect of compressive force, tensile force, shear force, bending force on structural member 1) Timber: Compressive force on timber: - The effect of a compressive force on a timber is a change in structure of a material and to carry a load within its limits. Tensile force on timber: - The tensile force is the pulling force exerted on both the ends of a timber. Both the ends of a timber will undergo tension…
