The Not So Perfect Human Many technological advances have come in recent years. One of which is the scientific research of genetic engineering. They have found ways to fix genetic mutations‚ cure diseases‚ and even just improve a child’s athletic or intellectual ability. Genetic Scientists are trying to genetically engineer children in the womb‚ but genetic engineering is an inferior practice because of the safety‚ financial‚ and ethical issues. First‚ as our society gets closer and closer to genetic

Abstract Philosophy has not paid sufficient attention to engineering. Nevertheless‚ engineering should not use this as an excuse to ignore philosophy. The argument here is that philosophy is important to engineering for at least three reasons. First‚ philosophy is necessary so that engineers may understand and defend themselves against philosophical criticisms. In fact‚ there is a tradition of engineering philosophy that is largely overlooked‚ even by engineers. Second‚ philosophy‚ especially ethics

EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING IN AUSTRALIA BEFORE MECKERING AND AFTER NEWCASTLE by Charles Bubb BE‚ DIC (Eng. Seis.)‚ FIEAust‚ CPEng SUMMARY Earthquake Engineering in Australia‚ as elsewhere‚ has been formulated in the aftermath of damaging earthquakes. The first Australian Code AS2121-1979 was written and published after the 1968 Meckering WA earthquake. The second AS1170.4 1993 was published after the 1989 Newcastle NSW earthquake. Good quality Building Codes are a necessary basis for sound earthquake

METHODS OF RAFT FOOTING DESIGN According to IS – 2950:1965‚ the design criteria of raft footings are given below: The maximum differential settlement in foundation on clayey soils and sandy soils should not exceed 40mm and 25 mm respectively. The maximum settlement should generally be limited to the following values: Raft foundation on clay – 65 to 100 mm. Raft foundation on sand – 40 to 65 mm. There are two methods for the design of raft foundations. They are: 1) Conventional Method 2)

Core 1 summary notes 1) Fossils fuels provide both energy & raw materials such as ethylene‚ for production of other substances Identify the industrial source of ethylene from the cracking of some of the fractions from the refining of petroleum Catalytic cracking is the process whereby high molecular weight fractions are broken down to low molecular weight ones. This process is used in petroleum refineries where crude oil is broken down to smaller alkenes and alkanes‚ until ethene‚ propene‚

------------------------------------------------- OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING Q.What is the difference between Constructor and Function or Method? Constructor will be automatically invoked when an object is created whereas method has to be called explicitly. Constructor needs to have the same name as that of the class whereas functions need not be the same. * There is no return type given in a constructor signature (header). The value is this object itself so there is no need to indicate a
