quarter car model is shown in figure 1.1. It basically consists of a single wheel which is represented in the form of a spring. However in some cases the wheel can be considered as equivalent to a parallel combination of spring and a damper. The actual shock absorber is assumed to support only one fourth of the weight of the total car body mass including passenger’s weight.

The designer seeking to evolve rock drills with special characteristics will combine several variables‚ such as the piston geometry‚ the impact rate and the frequency.. The shock waves that are generated by hydraulic (Fig. 3) and pneumatic (Fig. 4) rock drills are different in shape. A drill steel used with hydraulic machines will normally show a substantially longer service life than one used with pneumatic machines‚ the

Obedience Stanly Milgram and George Orwell present individuals who ignore their own moral codes when they are confronted by authority figures. In Milgram’s experiment people continued to shock other test subjects continuously despite their reservations against it. Even when the participants in Milgram’s experiments did not want to continue with the experiment‚ the authority figure in the experiment was able to convince them to continue. Likewise‚ in Orwell’s autobiography “Shooting an Elephant”

There are many legitimate authorities in our daily life from our parents to teachers or politicians‚ who are in a higher position than we are at. We just follow what they tell us to do without questioning why we have to follow.

learning‚ was to have participants (teacher) question another participant (learner)‚ and when the learner got a question wrong the teacher would shock the learner. For every question wrong‚ the teacher would increase the amount of volts used in the shock. Of course the experiment was actually about obedience‚ the learner was an experimenter‚ and the shock was faked (McLeod). Milgram’s was one of the first psychology experiments to use
