Aims The aims are to complete and observe a set of destructive mechanical testing on certain types of materials all with different properties, where there are three different types of destructive mechanical testing to be completed. Such as: Tensile testing, to observe the material’s ability to deform with application of tensile stress to a specimen. Where stress and strain will be gauged and displayed as a graph on a connected monitor. Hardness testing, to observe how much force is required for the material’s surface to have an indentation. The results will be displayed on the hardness dial. The information is already known that the hardness of the material is the ability to withstand surface scratching or indentation. Impact testing, to observe how much …show more content…
The materials being tested within the three experiments are aluminium, steel, brass and nylon. Introduction In the hardness testing the goal is to observe and record the hardness of each individual material tested within the experiment using a hardness testing machine which includes an indicator and a lever which controls the movement of the indenter onto the material’s surface, the material is placed in the vice connected to the elevating screw. The machine also contains a pressure gauge and hardness dial which displays the result in joules per millimetre squared (J/mm2). The type of hardness testing used was the Rockwell A. Hardness is an important property in a material as it allows for predictions on how it can withstand to pressure applied to its surface without deforming. In the tensile test, the goal is to observe and record the tensile strength of each individual material. The equipment used was a tensile testing machine which includes an upper and lower grip. The grips are used to hold the specimen in position. The machine includes an extensometer which measures the change in length of the
material Specific features Galvanized iron Sheet metal Slabs of galvanised iron are pushed into the rollers and made to pass through them Rollers made up of grey iron is mostly used for rolling process. High amount of load acting on the material which is at its recrystallization point tends to deform and then sheet metal is formed. Grey cast iron is used and it is considerably harder as it has some graphite content in its mixture which makes it hard. material Specific features iron Surface
In order to develop a standardized test that is valid and reliable, the
The Rational Basic Test is a regulations that provides a reasonable and rational method of advancing a legitimate institutional goal. There are four elements that the Rational Basic Test follows, the first is there must be a rational connection between the regulation and the legitimate interest put forward to justify it. The second is there must be an alternative means of exercising the right that remain open to prison inmates. The third there must be a minimal impact of the regulation on correctional officers and other inmates. And lastly there must be no less-restrictive alternative available.
Discussion Post- Chapter 7- High stakes testing Claim: High stakes testing is an extremely problematic political issue within the education system because it holds all students to the same standards regardless of disabilities or disadvantages , it encourages educators to teach strictly on information that relates to the tests, and it can have major consequences for schools across the country that are unable to make Adequete Yearly Progress (AYP). Evidence: The Learning to Teach Edition Nine textbook outlines key disadvantages to high stakes testing. Although the textbook does consider some of the advantages, which include a focus of attention on the achievement of students and providing information on areas where students may need to improve,
How can two people with completely different backgrounds be so similar? In The Book Thief, the two characters Max and Liesel are very similar people who share the same interests. Their lives are saved as they come to Himmel Street in Germany. Himmel Street is known as heaven to them, is has saved them both from a very bad life. Max is a Jewish boy during Hitler's reign in WWII.
Standardized testing ugh. The absolute worst part of school. Testing is so dreadful because it’s time consuming, forget consuming it’s devouring, teachers and students don’t get the graded test back fast enough, and last but definitely not least students already have to study for classroom test weekly now you want to overload their brains! This why I am against standardize test. These test have a desire to devour classroom time and brain capacity.
Standardized tests are very common in today’s modern society. They are used as a tool to measure a person’s performance and indicate how their estimated performance will be in a college class. Every year hundreds of students take the ACT or SAT in order to get accepted into their college of choice and to receive scholarships, but they fail to see the problems with these standardized tests. As more and more people take these tests, the national average score falls causing doubt in the extremely important system. This is leading people to question whether or not the ACT and SATs are accomplishing what they were created to do.
As the Roman poet Horace once said, "adversity has the effect of eliciting talents which in prosperous circumstances would have lain dormant." In other words, he believed that challenges are beneficial because they bring out talents that would have stayed hidden otherwise. He thought that adversity would force a person to use their unknown talents out of desperation. Some argue that his theory is irrelevant and that a person 's skills will develop just as well without adversity if they have the capacity, but I believe that hardships will evoke and improve on their dormant talents.
Would you fight through all obstacles to accomplish a test determining your life? Or would you crumble under the pressure? In The Testing trilogy, there are many characters that have multiple different obstacles to face during the trilogy. Cia has had many obstacles for example when she had to figure out who to trust and who to rely on. My theme that i find is very common in the testing trilogy is that there will be many obstacles to overcome in life.
The average American student takes about 112 standardized tests between pre-kindergarten and 12th grade (Strauss). A standardized test is any form of test that requires the student to answer the same selection of common questions in a consistent matter, which makes it possible to compare relative student performance. Standardized tests restrict creativity, waste time, and waste money. We should get rid of standardized tests in our school system. Standardized tests limit a student’s ability to express creativity.
Strengths Finder Reflection My top five strengths are adaptability, relator, maximizer, empathetic and strategic. It was not surprising to confirm my top five strengths because, in my work and social interactions, I find that I love relating with others and yearn to understand their situations and take them in that light. However, I am also a practical person who likes planning and looking at an issue from all perspectives. I, therefore, believe that I strike a balance as I am not rigid, neither am I too spontaneous, but most of all I try as much as possible to deal with a situation on its merit to maximize on positive outcomes.
In the essay “More Testing, More Learning”, Patrick O’Malley, the author, states that he thinks college professors should test students more often to enhance their learning. Patrick declared that semester finals or midterm exams are causing much unneeded stress on the students. O’Malley thinks that if professors gave more tests, quizzes, and homework during the semester, maybe the students wouldn’t be so stressed out about one final test. Also in his article, he explains why having more of these tests and quizzes would give the scholars better studying habits. More tests and quizzes, equals more studying.
A personality assessment is a method of examining and knowing human personality traits, this means getting to know the characteristics of various individuals such as behavior’s and social affiliations, to actualize this, we will be applying the Myers – Briggs Types Indicator (MBTI), of emotional intelligent (EI) Key word: Personality Assessment Introduction As we recalled from the above definition of personality assessment, is a method of examining and knowing human personality traits, this means getting to know the characteristics of various individuals such as behavior’s and social affiliations, to actualize this, we will be applying the Myers – Briggs Types Indicator (MBTI), of emotional intelligent
Introduction: The objective for the lab was to determine properties of materials by using a tension test. The properties that were determined was Young’s Modulus, ultimate tensile strength, and yield strength. Three aluminum alloys were tested. The first was the AA 2024 , which is high strength used in aerospace applications.
