Cofficient Of Linear Expansionaim To determine by practical means within a laboratory environment, a value for the coefficient of linear expansion of a given material and compare the result with an accepted published value. The following apparatus were used to conduct the experiment. a. PASCO…

Ethanol’s vapour pressure is lower than that of petrol, resulting in lower evaporative emissions while its flammability is also much lower than that of petrol, reducing the risk of vehicles catching fire. In addition, there is no gum formation associated with ethanol, and anti-oxidants and…

Aim of the study Heterologous and homologous protein secretion constitutes a field of great interest for the food industry. A little less than half of all the enzymes sold in a world-wide scale correspond to food and feed enzymes (Fernandes, 2010). Regardless of how potent…

Based on the solid/fluid-coupling anisotropic idea, the BISQ theory was extended to the transversely isotropic two-phase case. Yang and Zhang proposed general elastic wave propagation equations based on the BISQ theory, and further expanded these equations to the viscous elastic medium. However, too many system-specific…
