List two things that technological systems have in common.

They all share the way that they are fundamentally designed: if they are quite complex, they will share the same basic logic foundations, like the way that the programming languages work. They also all share the method of construction and common and fundamental electronic components, like resistors, capacitors and transistors. As we humans design them, they make logical sense to at least someone, and probably only discounting the internet, you can probably draw logic diagrams and whatever to represent how they work.

Because they are designed by Humans, in a way they all mimic how our brains and society work. Also, as yet there are no truly intelligent technological systems, and are only able to react to a situation how they have been programmed to do so.

An automated transfer line is to be designed. Based on previous experience, the average downtime per occurrence = 5.0 min, and t

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

a) 28 stations

b) Rp = 21.43

E = 0.5

Explanation:

Given:

Average downtime per occurrence = 5.0 min

Probability that leads to downtime, d= 0.01

Total work time, Tc = 39.2 min

a) For the optimum number of stations on the line that will maximize production rate.

Maximizing Rp =minimizing Tp

Tp = Tc + Ftd

$= \frac{39.2}{n} + (n * 0.01 * 5.0)$

$= \frac{39.2}{n} + (n * 0.05)$

At minimum pt. = 0, we have:

dTp/dn = 0

$= \frac{-39.2}{n^2} + 0.05 = 0$

Solving for n²:

$n^2 = \frac{39.2}{0.05} = 784$

$n = \sqrt{784} = 28$

The optimum number of stations on the line that will maximize production rate is 28 stations.

b) $Tp = \frac{39.2}{28} + (28 * 0.01 * 5)$

Tp = 1.4 +1.4 = 2.8

The production rate, Rp =

$\frac{60min}{2.8} = 21.43$

The proportion uptime,

$E = \frac{1.4}{2.8} = 0.5$

An interior beam supports the floor of a classroom in a school building. The beam spans 26 ft. and the tributary width is 16 ft.

saul85 [17]

Answer:

a. $L_o$ = 40 psf

b. L ≈ 30.80 psf

c. The uniformly distributed total load for the beam = 812.8 ft./lb

d. The alternate concentrated load is more critical to bending , shear and deflection

Explanation:

The given parameters of the beam the beam are;

The span of the beam = 26 ft.

The width of the tributary, b = 16 ft.

The dead load, D = 20 psf.

a. The basic floor live load is given as follows;

The uniform floor live load, = 40 psf

The floor area, A = The span × The width = 26 ft. × 16 ft. = 416 ft.²

Therefore, the uniform live load, $L_o$ = 40 psf

b. The reduced floor live load, L in psf. is given as follows;

$L = L_o \times \left ( 0.25 + \dfrac{15}{\sqrt{k_{LL} \cdot A_T} } \right)$

For the school, $K_{LL}$ = 2

Therefore, we have;

$L = 40 \times \left ( 0.25 + \dfrac{15}{\sqrt{2 \times 416} } \right) = 30.80126 \ psf$

The reduced floor live load, L ≈ 30.80 psf

c. The uniformly distributed total load for the beam, $W_d$ = b × $W_{D + L}$ =

∴ $W_d$ = = 16 × (20 + 30.80) ≈ 812.8 ft./lb

The uniformly distributed total load for the beam, $W_d$ = 812.8 ft./lb

d. For the uniformly distributed load, we have;

$V_{max}$ = 812.8 × 26/2 = 10566.4 lbs

$M_{max}$ = 812.8 × 26²/8 = 68,681.6 ft-lbs

$v_{max}$ = 5×812.8×26⁴/348/EI = 4,836,329.333/EI

For the alternate concentrated load, we have;

$P_L$ = 1000 lb

$W_{D}$ = 20 × 16 = 320 lb/ft.

$V_{max}$ = 1,000 + 320 × 26/2 = 5,160 lbs

$M_{max}$ = 1,000 × 26/4 + 320 × 26²/8 = 33,540 ft-lbs

$v_{max}$ = 1,000 × 26³/(48·EI) + 5×320×26⁴/348/EI = 2,467,205.74713/EI

Therefore, the loading more critical to bending , shear and deflection, is the alternate concentrated load

A 650-kN column load is supported on a 1.5 m square, 0.5 m deep spread footing. The soil below is a well-graded, normally consol

insens350 [35]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Determine the weight of footing

$W_{f}=\gamma(L)(B)(D)$

Where $W_{f}$ is the weight of footing, γ is the unit weight of concrete, L is the length of footing is the width of footing, and D is the depth of footing

Substitute $2 m \text { for } L, 1.5 m \text { for } B, 0.5 m \text { for } D \text { and } 23.6 kN / m ^{3}$ for γ in the equation

$\begin{aligned}W_{f} &=\left(23.6 kN / m ^{3}\right)(2 m )(1.5 m )(0.5 m ) \\&=35.4 kN\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the weight of the footing is 35.4 kN

Determine the initial vertical effective stress.

$\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}=\gamma(D+B)-u$

Here, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress at a depth below ground surface γ is the unit weight of soil, D is depth and u is pore water pressure.

Substitute $18 kN / m ^{3} \text { for } \gamma, 1.5 m \text { for } B, 0.5 m \text { for } D \text { and } 0$ for u in the equation

$\begin{aligned}\sigma_{z p}^{\prime} &=\left(18 kN / m ^{3}\right)(1.5+0.5) m -0 \\&=36 kPa\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the initial vertical stress is 36 kPa

Determine the vertical effective stress.

$\sigma_{z D}^{\prime}=\gamma D$

Here, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress at a depth below ground surface γ is the unit weight of soil, D is depth and u is pore water pressure.

Substitute $18 kN / m ^{3}\) for $\gamma, 0.5 m$ for $D$ and 0 for \(u$ in the equation.

$\begin{aligned}\sigma_{z b}^{\prime} &=\left(18 kN / m ^{3}\right)(0.5 m )-0 \\&=9 kPa\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the vertical stress at a depth below the ground surface is

9 kPa

Determine the influence factor at the midpoint of soil layer,

$I_{e p}=0.5+0.1 \sqrt{\frac{q-\sigma_{s 0}^{\prime}}{\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}}}$

Here $I_{e p}$ is the influence factor at the midpoint of soil layer $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is vertical effective stress, and $Q$ is bearing pressure

Substitute $36 kPa for $\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}, 228.47$ kPa for $q,$ and 9 kPa for $\sigma_{z D}^{\prime}$$ in the equation $\begin{aligned}I_{\epsilon P} &=0.5+0.1 \sqrt{\frac{228.47 kPa -9 kPa }{36 kPa }} \\&=0.75\end{aligned}$

Therefore the influence factor at the midpoint of the soil layer is 0.693
