September 26‚ 2003 CVEN-3313 Theoretical Fluid Mechanics Module#1: 1 1. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this module is to investigate hydrostatic forces on a plane surface under partial and full submersion. 2 2. DESCRIPTION The apparatus shown in Figure 1 will be used. It consists of a quarter circle block attached to a cantilevered arm with a rectangular surface on the other end. The pivot point on the arm corresponds to the center of radius of the block. With no water

MODELING LEACHATE MIGRATION FROM A LANDFILL December‚ 2003 1 INTRODUCTION A two-dimensional‚ steady state transport modeling using MODFLOW/CTRAN was carried out following the particle tracking calculations to simulate potential contamination for leachate migration from Gibraltar landfill. Gibraltar landfill was a disposal waste site in Bogotá (Colombia) until 1988. The site presented problems related to contamination for leachate migration after its closure‚ since the operation

section of the optic nerve extends from the globe‚ where it inserts medially‚ to the optic canal located in the lesser wing of the sphenoid bone. It is encased by a meningeal sheath consisting of dura mater‚ arachnoid mater and pia mater. Cerebrospinal fluid is contained in the trabeculated subarachnoid space and is continuously and slowly filtered. As a result the optic nerve sheath is in direct communication with the intracranial subarachnoid space. It is this relationship that forms the physiological

properties‚ such as buoyancy‚ drag resistance and propulsion. We swimmers are at a constant battle to stay afloat‚ while fighting through the water and propelling ourselves forward‚ and we do so using technique. Buoyancy is the power to float or rise in a fluid. This relates to swimming because when you’re in the water‚ you have to be able stay afloat. Buoyancy is the net upward force acting on the swimmer‚ as the depth of the water increases‚ so does the pressure. The pressure bellow the swimmer is greater

Fluids The amount of fluids in the body is extremely large. There are many different forms of fluid throughout the body‚ such as blood‚ urine‚ hormones‚ cerebral spinal fluid‚ water‚ albumin‚ and bile. The fluids that make up the body are required for homeostasis. There are many different functions of body fluids such as transporting nutrients‚ waste and gases‚ transforming food into energy and generate electrical activity to power body functions.
