Explanation of Solution

Nowadays it has been that the level of water in the sea is increasing year by year.

The figure below shows the increase in the sea height with years.

EBK MUNSON, YOUNG AND OKIISHI'S FUNDAME, Chapter 10.7, Problem 1LLP

Figure-(1)

One of the reason behind this increase is global warming, due to global warming the there is thermal expansion of sea water, melting of ice in the glaciers. Tsunami is also on of the outcome.

Methods to stop Global warming:

1) Use of renewable energies

2) Sustainable transportation

3) Sustainable infrastructure

4) Responsible consumption and recycling

Method to predict to occurrence of tsunamis or damaging waves:

1) Deep-Ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis:- Tsunamis occur due to pressure difference in reason to reason and this method use to detect slight changes in water pressure.

2) Tide gauges and buoys: Gauges are installed to measure the changes in the sea level and by measuring the level of changes prediction can be made about the Tsunamis.

3) Satellite:- It is one of the good method to predict the occurrence of tsunamis.

Recall that the CWH equation involves two important assumptions. Let us investigate how these assumptions affect the accuracy of state trajectories under the control inputs optimized in (a) and (b). (c.1): Discuss the assumptions about the chief and deputy orbits that are necessary for deriving CWH.
PROBLEM 2.50 1.8 m The concrete post (E-25 GPa and a = 9.9 x 10°/°C) is reinforced with six steel bars, each of 22-mm diameter (E, = 200 GPa and a, = 11.7 x 10°/°C). Determine the normal stresses induced in the steel and in the concrete by a temperature rise of 35°C. 6c " 0.391 MPa 240 mm 240 mm 6₁ = -9.47 MPa
For some viscoelastic polymers that are subjected to stress relaxation tests, the stress decays with time according to a(t) = a(0) exp(-4) (15.10) where σ(t) and o(0) represent the time-dependent and initial (i.e., time = 0) stresses, respectively, and t and T denote elapsed time and the relaxation time, respectively; T is a time-independent constant characteristic of the material. A specimen of a viscoelastic polymer whose stress relaxation obeys Equation 15.10 was suddenly pulled in tension to a measured strain of 0.5; the stress necessary to maintain this constant strain was measured as a function of time. Determine E (10) for this material if the initial stress level was 3.5 MPa (500 psi), which dropped to 0.5 MPa (70 psi) after 30 s.
