Truss bridge construction is initiated with a detailed soil analysis to determine suitability for the bridge and traffic loads. The truss bridge is designed with either the road being at the truss bottom, or alternatively with the road being at the truss top. The former design has the bridge e...
To make the perfect oven-roasted turkey for your holiday dinner, dry-brining with a homemade spice rub is absolutely mandatory.
How do you determine the force on an object if there are multiple forces acting on it? Which type of force are tension and compression? How is net force calculated? Determine the flexibility spring rate (in SI units) for the bellows below, knowing a force of 50 N produced a compres...
How can we measure team effectiveness, in which the targeted performance is achieved in a healthy, constructive and efficient manner? What are the assumptions in truss analysis and what are the ways to determine if a truss is a theoretical determinate or indeterminate?
Mouse over the boxes to see the stages. A typical shuttle mission is as follows: getting into orbit launch - the shuttle lifts off the launching pad ascent orbital maneuvering burn orbit - life in space re-entry landing A typical shuttle mission lasts seven to eight days, but can extend ...

In the latest models, such as THUMS™ Version 5, nearly all human muscle groups are modeled in form of one-dimensional truss elements connecting each joint. While a lot of work has been done to improve the active and passive behavior of this 1D muscle system in the past, the volumetric...
straight up, pruning off any secondary shoots. This keeps the plant from getting too bushy. Use plastic vine clips to hold the tomato to the string or stake. A cluster of ripening tomatoes can be very heavy and so you may want to support the clusters with a “tomato hook” or “truss...

A truss bridge is a kind of reinforced beam bridge. Like a beam bridge, the top is in compression and the bottom in tension. The diagonal trusses are in tension and the vertical ones are in compression. A cantilever bridge balances tension forces above the bridge deck with compression forces...
