Applied Engineering science report. Michael Connor B00240227 Part A: Several mixtures of cement‚ aggregate‚ sand and water were mixed at different ratios to workability and compressive strength. The dry materials of the mixture were mixed and water was gradually added‚ the mixture was then placed in a cube and allowed to dry forming the concrete testing cube. Each of the four blocks containing different compositions of each material were then placed in a compressive testing machine and when

relevant during an engineering experiment called “cold rolling of metals". The purpose of this report is to show how readings obtained from the set-out experiment‚ can be evaluated to determine the behavior of 3 selected materials; Brass‚ Copper and Aluminium through the process of cold rolling. The form of the materials are in small strips which are processed via cold-rolling method 4 times from their original state to evaluate the effects incurred on hardness values‚ width‚ length and thicknesses.

reduce in temperature in 15 minutes‚ using different materials to insulate the heat. The five materials that will be tested are: Aluminium foil‚ plastic wrap‚ newspaper‚ felt‚ and bubble wrap. Aluminium foil is a reflective material; this means that it bounces the thermal energy back to the foiled object. It also absorbs the heat. Not only does it stop heat loss‚ but Aluminium foil is also useful for protecting objects from gaining unwanted heat. Plastic wrap insulates the heat but makes it that it

Gathering water for African villages is a job placed on the women. They spend countless hours carrying water from distant sources. These sources are often polluted and this continuous effort is an enormous waste of time that could be better used for childcare and education (Wanja). According to J.W.N. Riviere in a publication called "Threats to the Worlds Waters"‚ women and girls in Africa spend 40 billion person hours a year hauling polluted water. Both natural and man-made pollutants have damaged

gain resistance to nickel and aluminium over generations. It discusses the importance of bacteria and how it is used throughout everyday life. It discusses that some bacteria is used for human applications and shows how it can be helpful in certain situations. This report will discuss the background information on E.coli K12 and the uses of bacteria. Throughout the investigation a series of experiments will be conducted to determine if metals such as nickel and aluminium have a resistance to E.coli

Carbon fibre reinforced polymer Name Institutional analysis Introduction Carbon Fibre reinforced polymer commonly known as CFRP is a very strong composite material that is majorly preferred for many automotive and aeronautical application due to the fact that despite their strength that still light that the traditional metallic materials. The polymers often used to make this composite material is epoxy‚ polyester‚ vinyl and even nylon. Thus in making CFRP carbon fibre is often combined with polymers

Insulation on Heat Retention Aim I am going to investigate the effect of different types of material on heat retention. "Which of the four materials‚ cotton‚ foam‚ aluminium foil and bubble wrap‚ is the best insulator?" Hypothesis The four materials tested in this experiment are cotton‚ foam‚ aluminium foil‚ and bubble wrap. Materials that are good insulators will absorb heat slowly and therefore the water inside the cup will stay warm for a longer period of time. Materials
