Summary

Students learn about the variety of materials used by engineers in the design and construction of modern bridges. They also find out about the material properties important to bridge construction and consider the advantages and disadvantages of steel and concrete as common bridge-building materials to handle compressive and tensile forces.

This engineering curriculum aligns to Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).

Engineering Connection

When designing structures such as bridges, engineers carefully choose the materials by anticipating the forces the materials (the structural components) are expected to experience during their lifetimes. Usually, ductile materials such as steel, aluminum and other metals are used for components that experience tensile loads. Brittle materials such as concrete, ceramics and glass are used for components that experience compressive loads.

Learning Objectives

After this lesson, students should be able to:

List several common materials used the design and construction of structures.

Describe several factors that engineers consider when selecting materials for the design of a bridge.

Explain the advantages and disadvantages of common materials used in engineering structures (steel and concrete).

A diesel engine with CR= 20 has inlet at 520R, a maximum pressure of 920 psia and maximum temperature of 3200 R. With cold air p
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Cut-off ratio\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}=6.15

Cxpansion ratio\dfrac{V_4}{V_3}=3.25

The exhaust temperatureT_4=1997.5R

Explanation:

Compression ratio CR(r)=20

\dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=20

P_2=P_3=920 psia

T_1=520 R ,T_{max}=T_3,T_3=3200 R

We know that for air γ=1.4

If we assume that in diesel engine all process is adiabatic then

\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}=r^{\gamma -1}

\dfrac{T_2}{520}=20^{1.4 -1}

T_2=1723.28R

\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}=\dfrac{T_3}{T_2}

\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}=\dfrac{3200}{520}

So cut-off ratio\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}=6.15

\dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{V_4}{V_3}\times\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}

Now putting the values in above equation

\dfrac20=\dfrac{V_4}{V_3}\times 6.15

\dfrac{V_4}{V_3}=3.25

So expansion ratio\dfrac{V_4}{V_3}=3.25.

\dfrac{T_4}{T_3}=(expansion\ ratio)^{\gamma -1}

\dfrac{T_3}{T_4}=(3.25)^{1.4 -1}

T_4=1997.5R

So the exhaust temperatureT_4=1997.5R

garik1379 [7]

I'd like to propose that the embankment be built in stages. Because of the possibility of abrupt coloase of structure in swampy places. Soil carrying capacity is extremely low in those places. You must first densify the soil and make it acceptable using various procedures such as grouting, vibrification, restricting, and so on. These types of jobs are critical during the earliest stages of embankment development. After that, we can begin our construction work.

What is soil?

Soil, often known as earth or soil, is a complex mixture of organic matter, minerals, gases, liquids, and creatures that support life. Some scientific definitions distinguish dirt from soil by limiting the former term to displaced soil only. Soil is made up of two phases: a solid phase of minerals and organic matter and a porous phase that retains gases and water. As a result, soil is a three-state system composed of solids, liquids, and gases. Soil is the result of various elements interacting throughout time, including climate, relief, creatures, and the parent components of the soil.
