The magnitude of the deformation for a constant force depends on the geometry of the materials. Likewise, the magnitude of the force required to cause a given deformation, depends on the geometry of the material. ... While the relationship between the force and deformation depends on the geometry of the material, the relationship between the stress and strain is geometry independent. ...
., Theaetetus defined knowledge as "geometry, the craft of shoemaking, and carpentry." ... Plato used mathematics to explain that we base geometry around perfect angles, circle, and triangles, even though they do not exist. ...
This research paper is going to describe some of the most influential people in all of history: the Sumerians. They were the first people to build a civilization from almost nothing but mud, and then expanded their empire. This paper is also going to go into detail about who the Sumerians were and ...
Some of the important features of the fiber optics that we are interested are discussed below. Now a days we are using copper wires as they are the most cost effective and reliable interconnect in parallel machines. However as machines grow more powerful, wire density becomes critical making fiber possible alternatives because of their small wire size. Fiber optics are used mainly to use effectively its high bandwidth. On a single fiber lots of information/data can be transmitted concurrently and in parallel. ...

Saturn, the sixth planet from the sun, is the second largest of nine planets and one of the most interesting in our Solar System. It is believed to be the god of agriculture in Roman mythology and its Greek name is Cronos. Saturn was first discovered by Galileo in 1610 by using one of the first ...
Classroom Management Plan Part I: Philosophy, belief, and examples In today's society people have many different opinions and philosophies on life. The same can be said for teachers. Even though some teachers may have similarities, I believe every teacher is different and has their won unique way of teaching. I too am going to teach and I too will have my own way of teaching and my class will differ from others. I am a true believer in the fact that kids learn because they want to and not because they are made. ...
The Civilization of Ancient Egypt The Ancient Egyptian civilization formed along the Nile river and the earliest traces of human life in that region were from the Paleolithic Age (Old Stone Age) circa 300,000 BC, at the very edges of the Nile Valley. Beyond the Nile River Valley, on both sides of the river the land was an endless stretch of desert. At that time the River Valley inhabitants were Nomadic and were also Hunter/Gatherers, but they never strayed far from their lifeline, the Nile. Because Egypt was located In the Nile River Valley., the Ancient Egyptians used the fertile land an...
Sex differences in education are a type of sex discrimination in the education system affecting both men and women during and after their educational experiences. There was an extreme gender gap in education, where women didn't even have the pleasure of going to school. Women took the role of housework: cooking, cleaning, and sewing; marrying a husband; and taking car of the children: making sure they're well fed, cherished, and nurtured. If women were any bit of educated, they would be educated through homeschooling and their teacher would most likely be a male. Also, mostly wealthy...
For many years time travel was the stuff of science fiction. This was all just part of the world's imagination until recently. Scientists now believe that the current laws of physics allow us to travel though time. They believe that we can now travel back to see our founding fathers sign the declara...
