Scientists suggest Earth was formed by a Mars-sized rogue planet known as Theia—with identifiable bits of the alien planet still found in Earth’s interior.
What is rigidity modulus of a liquid? Hooke's Law: According to the Hooke's law, the stress produced due to a uniaxial loading is directly proportional to the strain developed. Hooke's law is valid in linear elastic region that is upto proportional limit. The Hooke's law is also defined...
The network loss function approximated the \(L^2\) error of the approximation on the interior and boundary of the domain using point-collocation. While, the loss is evaluated using a quasi-Newtonian approach and the gradients are evaluated using finite difference. In Lagaris et al [89], the...
interior and exterior views of an airplane. A capsule shaped porthole in the upper right corner looks out onto the aircraft’s wing through what might be seen as household blinds. A plane soars off the left edge of the drawing. This could be a rendering of the same plane observed ...

Infiltration: when there is a leak or poor waterproofing of the slab or reservoirs of water enter the part, in the case of concrete the water will penetrate and will gradually reach the iron armature causing oxidation and, consequently, increasing the diameter of the bars, which will result in...
