Fire is a beautiful natural event which has been venerated as well as enslaved throughout its history with man. This phenomenon is one of the first external energy sources available to man. Fire is formed by a chain reaction between heat, fuel and an oxidizer. If any one of these elements is not present then a fire will most likely not occur or quickly die. When the temperature of the heat source exceeds the flash point of the fuel and oxygen mix the chain reaction occurs. Oxidizers in the form of oxygen gas or an oxygen rich compound can be replaced by certain non-oxygen oxidizers. Air is the most common oxidizer for fires because it is in the air we breathe. Any combustible material that is...

Value, as defined, is the ratio of Function to Cost. Value can therefore be increased by either improving the Function or reducing the cost. It is a primary tenet of operations management that no one is to relax the quality levels as a consequence of pursuing value enhancements.               The concept of Value is sometimes taught within the industrial engineering body of knowledge as a technique in which the value of a system’s outputs is optimized by crafting a mix of performance (Function) and costs. In most cases this practice identifies and removes unnecessary expenditures, thereby increasing the value for the manufacturer and/or their customers.               During...

Shooting down aircraft and incoming ICBM missiles is not easy, especially those moving at upwards of 3-4 times the speed of sound. First you have to detect them and then you have to try to hit them? Good luck. Ah, but you say we can hit them with modern day missiles to a quite high ratio of success? Indeed, but unless you are a 100% you are scaring me and a swarm of 100s or 1000s of incoming missiles is not very funny and fairly problematic indeed. Additionally what about all the new scramjet technologies, how do we hit those 10 plus times the speed of sound, nothing goes that fast? Well light does and so we should use light. Now then many of the newest cruise missiles being designed are fast movers...

Launchers are located towards the rear together with their target sensors. The Starstreak missiles have a two-stage solid propellant rocket motor and travel at more than three times the speed of sound (Mach 3.5). Each missile contains three high-density darts with impact fuses and explosive...

As impressive as some our modern inventions may seem, there is always a chance for our designs to fail. To err is human, as the old adage states. Major endeavors, such as the design and construction of a new building, rely on the collective knowledge of hundreds of individuals. Having said that, the success of any project will depend greatly on the weakest link in the chain of knowledge. This is precisely the reason mechanical engineering jobs are in such high demand. The following is a collection of the three worst engineering failures in the modern era. Space Shuttle Challenger Disaster On January 28, 1986, the Space Shuttle Challenger disintegrated off the coast of Florida causing the deaths of...

The Navy continues to improve the Tomahawk cruise missiles to meet the war fighters' needs for a more flexible and "tactical" precision strike weapon. As technologies are developed to provide new operational capabilities and/or to reduce costs, mechanical testing is often performed to verify mechanical properties before implementation. Tomahawk cruise missiles are designed to fly at extremely low altitudes at high subsonic speeds. They are launched from destroyers, submarines or aircraft, and can hit a target with incredible accuracy. The missiles were successfully used in several conflicts, beginning with Operation Desert Storm in 1991. A cruise missile is basically a 20-foot by 21-inch, pilotless...

Sharper Image was one of the hottest companies in America for years and in the 1980s, it reached near iconic status. Today, I learned on the news that the company has declared bankruptcy. I remember talking to my friends in college who talked about the quality of a mall based on whether it had a Sharper Image. The store became the benchmark separating the good, from the bad and ugly. One of my favorite movies is "When Harry Met Sally" (yes, I am a romantic) and one of the most enjoyable scenes (and memorable) scenes is in a Sharper Image. There, the two main characters sing on a karaoke and stumble upon Harry's ex-wife in a most uncomfortable and humorous scene. Back in those days, Sharper Image was...

The great old Spanish language. I have always wanted to learn the Spanish language since I was like 7 years old, but I never got round to actually fulfilling my early dream at that age. When I grew older about 17 years of age, I decided to try and go after my goal to finally learn the language. I did not know that there was a "Learn Spanish CD" course out there that could help me learn Spanish and actually help speak it in as little time as just two months. But there was, and it is called Rocket Spanish. When I purchased it, I was skeptical at first but one I started going through it I started picking up Spanish phrases so quickly that I did not even anticipate it until it happened. I was speaking...

While the Rosetta Stone Japanese learning system is the largest selling language software program, the Pimsleur language system is one of the longest selling systems. Pimsleur and Rosetta Stone share some common elements, but Pimleur also includes elements that appear to be at least theoretically opposed to their competitor's system. Both Pimsleur and Rosetta Stone take a scientific approach to teaching foreign languages. They are both based on well-tested linguistic and psychological learning models. In particular, they share the belief that languages are best learned from the ground up in the same way that children learn their native language. Neither system wastes time with a lot of translation...

Jawaharlal Nehru often remarked that English is one of the most un-scientific languages! As opposed the Indian languages like Sanskrit, Hindi, Bengali or Marathi, where the grammar rules are the same that one studies in school and what the last generation studied in their school, English grammar changes quite rapidly and what you learnt in school might be rendered redundant or labelled stuffy and pedantic in a few years. People from vernacular, non-English medium background often find themselves at a disadvantage in spoken English as compared to those from an English medium or convent school background. This article is an attempt to help such people avoid simple mistakes and speak more confidently...

If you want to enjoy a memorable visit in this amazing region, then you need to know a little bit of their vocabulary to effectively interact with the locals. Top 10 Japanese Words Used By The Locals 1. Yes and No The most basic words you can learn in Japan are "hai", which means...

In my English language teaching experience I've found it to be highly effective to use a multi-modal approach (D. Lazear) combined with multi-media based activities for maximum effect and language acquisition on the part of the learners. I've also found it important to develop skills and abilities seated in both hemispheres of the brain. Here is what to consider and how you might approach this. Theory of Dual Psychology The theory of Dual Psychology or "Split Brain Theory" as it is sometimes called, states that each of the brain's two hemispheres operate independently, performing different functions. An inter-connective structure called the Corpus Callosum allows exchange of information and...
