A computer program is to be written to calculate the properties of the laminar composite. Concept Introduction: Most of the properties of the laminar composites such as, density, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and modulus of elasticity are estimated from the rule of mixing. These properties parallel to the lamellae are calculated by the formulas: Density: ρ C , ∥ = ∑ f i ρ i Thermal conductivity: K C , ∥ = ∑ f i K i Electrical conductivity: σ C , ∥ = ∑ f i σ i Modulus of elasticity: E C , ∥ = ∑ f i E i These properties perpendicular to the lamellae are calculated by the formulas: Thermal conductivity: K C , ⊥ = ∑ ( f i K i ) Electrical conductivity: σ C , ⊥ = ∑ ( f i σ i ) Modulus of elasticity: E C , ⊥ = ∑ ( f i E i )

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A computer program is to be written to calculate the properties of the laminar composite.

Concept Introduction:

Most of the properties of the laminar composites such as, density, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and modulus of elasticity are estimated from the rule of mixing.

These properties parallel to the lamellae are calculated by the formulas:

Density: ρC,∥=∑fiρiThermal conductivity: KC,∥=∑fiKiElectrical conductivity: σC,∥=∑fiσiModulus of elasticity: EC,∥=∑fiEi

These properties perpendicular to the lamellae are calculated by the formulas:

Thermal conductivity: KC,⊥=∑( f i K i )Electrical conductivity: σC,⊥=∑( f i σ i )Modulus of elasticity: EC,⊥=∑( f i E i )

5.6 A section of highway has the following flow- density relationship q = 50k - 0.156k2 [with q in veh/h and k in veh/mi]. What is the capacity of the highway section, the speed at capacity, and the density when the highway is at one-quarter of its capacity?

8.20 Two routes connect a suburban area and a city, with route travel times (in minutes) given by the expressions t₁ = 6 + 8(x₁/c₁) and t₂ = 10 + 3(x2/c2), where the x's are expressed in thousands of vehicles per hour and the c's are the route capacities in thousands of vehicles per hour. Initially, the capacities of routes 1 and 2 are 4000 and 2000 veh/h, respectively. A reconstruction project on route 1 reduces the capacity to 3000 veh/h, but total traffic demand is unaffected. Observational studies note a 35.28-second increase in average travel time on route 1 and a 68.5% increase in flow on route 2 after reconstruction begins. User-equilibrium conditions exist before and during reconstruction. If both routes are always used, determine equilibrium flows and travel times before and after reconstruction begins.

8.19 Three routes connect an origin and a destination with performance functions t₁ = 8+ 0.5x1, t2 = 1 + 2x2, and t3 = 3 + 0.75x3, with the x's expressed in thousands of vehicles per hour and the 's expressed in minutes. If the peak-hour traffic demand is 3400 vehicles, determine user-equilibrium traffic flows.
