Chapter 18, Problem 18.39P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the oxidation of most of the ceramics to be not considered as a problem needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

  • Oxidation is a process in which the materials react with oxygen and other gases.
  • Oxidation occurred in metal by the standard free energy of formation for oxide.
  • Pilling Bedworth ratio is the ratio of oxide volumes per metal to the metal volume per metal.
  • If the oxide occupies a lesser volume than the metal, the Pilling − Bed worth ratio is less than one.
  • Ceramics are inorganic compounds of metals or nonmetals.
  • Ceramics have strong atomic bonding in covalent and ionic bonding.
  • Oxidation degrades the material and temperature is a major driving force for oxidation.

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.
