An aircraft component is fabricated from an aluminum alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 36 . It has been determined that fracture results at a stress of 225 MPa when the maximum (or critical) internal crack length is 2.44 mm. Determine the value of for this same component and alloy at a stress level of 337 MPa when the maximum internal crack length is 1.22 mm.

Apipe with an outside diameter of 15 cm is exposed to an ambient air and surrounding temperature of -20°c. the pipe has an outer surface temperature of 65°c and an emissivity of 0.85. if the rate of heat loss from the pipe surface is 0.95 kw per meter of length, the external convective heat transfer coefficient (h) is: (a) 12.5 w/m"k (b) 18.6 w/mk (c) 23.7 w/mk (d) 27.9 w/mk (e) 33.5 w/mk

What are the two (02) benefits, which may result from a successful implementation of preventive maintenance (pm) program in an organization? (clo3)a)- lean manufacturing b)-overlapping responsibilities c)-the planner is not qualified d)-accurate contractor information e)-reduction in equipment redundancies f)-accurate stores information

Amixture of slurry and mud is to be pumped through a horizontal pipe of diameter 500 mm. the fluid behaves as a bingham plastic with a yield stress of 30 pa and viscosity 0.04 pa. s. describe the effects of the shear stress through a transverse section of the pipe by plotting the variation in shear stress and velocity profile: (i) just before the slurry starts to move (ii) as the slurry flows when the pressure gradient is double that in part (i)
