HOW BRIDGES WORK What allows an arch bridge to span greater distances than a beam bridge, or a suspension bridge to span a distance seven times that of an arch bridge? I The answer lies in how each bridge type deals with two important forces called compression and tensio An everyday example of compression and tension is a spring. When we press down, or push the two ends of the spring together, we compress it. The force of compression shortens the spring. When we pull up, or pull apart the two ends, we create tension in the spring. The force of tension lengthens the spring. Accordingly, the force of compression manifests itself on the top side of the beam bridge"s deck or roadway, and this causes the upper portion of the deck to shorten. I The result of compression on the upper portion of the deck causes tension in the lower part of the dec . This tension causes the lower portion of the beam to lengthen. These forces, certainly, act differently in various bridge types. Thus, tension in an arch is negligible. The natural curve of the arch and its ability to dissipate the force outward greatly reduces the effects of tension on the underside of the arch. The greater the degree of curvature, however, the greater the effects of tension on the underside. . In suspension bridges, the cables transfer the compression to the towers, which dissipate the compression directly into the ground where they are firmly embedded. By increasing the height of the beam, the beam has more material to dissipate the tension. To create very tall beams, bridge designers add supporting lattice work, or a truss, to the bridge"s beam. This support truss adds rigidity to the existing beam, greatly increasing its ability to dissipate compression and tension. I Think of one side of a truss bridge as a single beam. . The center of a beam is made up of the diagonal members of the truss, while the top and bottom of the truss represent the top and bottom of the beam. Looking at a truss in this way, we can see that the top and bottom of the beam contain more material than its center. Besides, the load is transferred from a single point to a considerably wider area. Torsion, which is a rotational or twisting force, is one which has been effectively eliminated in all but the largest suspension bridges. The natural shape of the arch and the additional truss structure of the beam bride have eliminated the destructive effects of torsion on these structures. [However suspension bridges, because of the very fact they are suspended, are somewhat more susceptible to torsior Resonance (a vibration caused by an external force that is in harmony with the natural vibration of the original structure) is a force, which, if unchecked, can be fatal to a bridge. Resonant vibrations travel through a bridge in form of waves. When soldiers march along the bridge, they are told to break step” to avoid the possibility of their rhythmic marching to start resonance throughout the bridge. In order to mitigate this effect in a bridge, dampeners are used. Dampening techniques generally involve inertia. The trick is to create enough friction to change the frequency of the resonant wave. I Changing the wave effectively creates two different waves, neither of which can build off the other into a destru

Report on two graphic editors: Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator Introduction The 21st century is the age of visual information. Wherever you look, you will be surrounded by all kinds of graphics, charts, commercials, logos, banners, and other images. Be it a website, a billboard, a magazine, a comic book, a package — all the images are created by graphic designers and nowadays with the use of special software programs. Among the most popular and the most advanced programs, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator are the favorites of the majority of graphic designers. Operation The most basic probably lies in the principles each of these programs operates with. Photoshop works with raster graphics. What does it mean? A raster image consists of pixels, each emitting the light of three main colors: red, green, and blue (the so-called RGB standard). The mixture of these three colors provides all the range of colors our monitors can display. The main limitation of raster graphics is that pixels cannot maintain their appearance as the image becomes larger; for this reason, when you zoom into a raster image, it becomes blurry. unlike Photoshop, Illustrator operates with vector graphics — this means that the way an image is : rendered is defined by mathematical formulas, the variables in which a designer inserts by using Illustrator"s tools (PsPrint). for example ‚ a curved line drawn in Photoshop will consist of pixels; its shape and borders are defined by the way a designer brushed over the canvas,” and when you enlarge it, pixels will be able to sustain the shape of the drawn object only until a certain limit — after you surpass it, the image will become blurry. in contrast ‚ in Illustrator, the shape of the line is derived from the coordinates set by a designer"s drawing tool. Respectively, when you enlarge such an image, it will not lose its quality, because pixels have nothing to do with the image"s creation here (although your monitor still uses them to display the result of the mathematical calculations behind the image). Purpose Photoshop is unparalleled in terms of creating realistic, nature-like images. A skilled designer can create a Photoshop illustration that will look incredibly realistic, to the extent that it is difficult to distinguish it from reality; besides , Photoshop can edit already existing images with great precision — how many times have you looked at a celebrity"s photo in a magazine and wondered, which part of it is natural,” and which is edited? The only drawbacks here are that a designer working in Photoshop must have initial images to work with, and also the scale: after a certain threshold, the image will pixelate and inevitably lose quality. Illustrator cannot match with Photoshop in terms of realism or editing capabilities, I however __I. lllustrator"s main purpose is creating brand new images from scratch, and designing all kinds of elements which must look perfect under any conditions. as a result , acompany"s logo will most likely be created in Illustrator, since whatever scale it is set to, it will always retain its shape and other properties. Illustrator is widely used for creating brand books, corporate style, fonts, packages, and other similar production. although all this does not mean that a talented designer cannot use each of these programs however he or she likes. Conclusion Shortly speaking, raster graphics (and respectively, Photoshop) is better to use when working with photos; vector graphics, I on the other hand I, is required when you need to create an illustration from scratch (PsPrint). Both Adobe programs — Photoshop and Illustrator — are the most convenient and essential tools for any graphic designer. A skilled designer uses both of these programs to achieve incredible results.

Vi а 10,00 из 10,00 (100%) How smart technology trends are changing our lives A The turn of the century kickstarted a technology revolution that we"re still riding. The proliferation of the smartphone and the internet has galvanized this obsession with development and investment in technology trends. Such is the relentless pace of our pursuit of better and faster, that innovations become outdated in a matter of weeks. One innovation that is here for the long haul is Al, meaning artificial intelligence, and with it, smart technology. These technology trends are changing the way we live, work and interact with one another. B It"s that which makes use of Al to enable a level of cognitive awareness. And it"s able to make decisions without human intervention. The technology employs machine learning and big data analysis to perform functions that have traditionally been done by humans. In doing so, it rapidly boosts the efficiency, productivity and functionality of almost anything it"s applied to. С The primary way in which this technology trend is changing lives is its ability to adapt using data. Armed with information, smart technology is able to pick up patterns and alter responses accordingly. It"s also able to analyze the data to determine whether there"s a faster, more efficient way to achieve the same result. One sustainable development company, for example, used data to promote the benefits of car sharing and more affordable transportation methods. The result was the gradual removal of 415,000 vehicles from the roads of America and a decrease in CO2 emissions of 16 million pounds. D City planners and political leaders are also seeing the benefits of smart technology as it pertains to city living. Smart cities are being built on digital technology and device connectivity that enhances quality of life for the population. From a parking meter to a bicycle helmet, to a trash can or smart vehicle, anything can be turned into a smart device. And the information that"s gathered can be used to streamline processes, build infrastructure or focus investment on problematic areas. E Smart technology trends are also impacting healthcare. Think about the amount of data that this industry accumulates on a day-to-day basis: patient records, medical histories, images of ultrasounds, x-rays, pharmaceutical and therapy research data to name a few sources. In 2016, there were 213 million gigabytes of health-related data worldwide. That number is set to double every three months by 2020. It"s an exorbitant amount of data. And impossible for any human practitioner to get through in a lifetime. IBM"s Watson can sift through that data, connect the dots between relatable data and give practitioners a greatly reduced summary of relevant case information in as little as 30 seconds.

Paragraph С Ном does it play out in the world? o> ParagraphD ~— The smart city $ Paragraph Е Smart hospitals $
