Wood is a natural resource that used to be used in abundance for the construction of Houses. However, with the diminishing supply of wood owing to depletion of wood reserves, alternate materials are being looked into for the construction of houses. Over the past decade overall lumber prices have both increased and become more volatile. Surprisingly two of the most admired modern houses are made of steel. One by Philip Johnson known as Glass House and the second by Meis van der Rohe known as F...

Generally, a shallow foundation refers to a foundation whose depth equals the width. It is important to understand the assumptions behind various design procedures rather than getting their definition. Shallow foundation involves transferring building loads to the earth near the surface, rather than to a subsurface layer. Types of shallow foundations include spread footing, mat-slab, slab-on-grade foundations, combined footings and continuous strip spread footing In spread footing, foundation...
Introduction Chapter 1 outlined the background for this thesis indicating that Transfer of Training: Challenges faced by technicians in the Malaysian manufacturing industry. The Chapter described preliminary evidence suggesting that motivation is a factor which enhances training transfer. Chapter 2 intended to place the research problem in its academic context by canvassing the International based research literature on transfer of training before moving to a detailed discussion of the concep...
Abstract The work presented here predicts centrifugal stress along blade aerofoil from root to tip at different radial sections. It also presumes a value for thermal stress based on the literature available. Based on centrifugal stress, thermal stress and life requirement it predicts the permissible blade metal temperature from L-M parameter for different radial sections. Further it estimates the external flow convective heat transfer coefficient along blade profile from leading edge to trail...
With rising fuel price and more stringent emission legislation, recent researches are focus on high efficiency and low emissions technologies in the field of internal combustion engines. In order to simultaneously reduce soot and NOx emissions while achieving high thermal efficiency, many strategies have been proposed in compression ignition (CI) engine. The low temperature premixed combustion is employed by most of the strategies, and the ultimate goal is to achieve Homogeneous Charge Compre...
Ac Machines Fundamental Ac generators are electrical machines that convert mechanical energy to an AC electrical energy. There are two types of machines synchronous of generators and induction (Asynchronous). Synchronous generators are the machines whose magnetic field current is supplied by a separate DC power source. Basic concept: In order to understand how AC machines functions let's consider a simple loop of wire rotating within a uniform magnetic field. The rotating part of the machine ...
Impellers are the core dynamic components found in various turbo machines such as pumps, compressors and turbines. In case of a compressor, the function of the impeller is to create static pressure rise by diffusing the relative velocity component of the intake fluid by means of its rotating action. The key issue that needs to be addressed when designing impellers is to control the rate of relative velocity diffusion along the impeller passage length. This paper aims at rapidly designing an i...
Application Of Coated Hollow Fiber Protected Membrane Liquid Phase Microextraction To The Analysis Of Organophosphorus Pesticides Introduction There has been unprecedented growth in measurement techniques over the last few decades. Instrumentations, such as chromatography, spectroscopy and microscopy, as well as sensors and micro devices, have undergone phenomenal developments. Despite the sophisticated arsenal of analytical tools, complete noninvasive measurements are still not possible in m...
A semiconductor detector is a device that uses a semiconductor to detect traversing charged particles or the absorption of photons. In the field of particle physics, these detectors are usually known as silicon detectors. When their sensitive structures are based on a single dIode, they are called semiconductor diode detectors. When they contain many diodes with different functions, the more general term semiconductor detector is used. Semiconductor detectors have found broad application duri...
