Rapid prototyping is a set of various techniques that is usually used for fabricating a model or a sample using 3D computer aided design. The rapid prototyping allows prompt and effective collection of data necessary to produce a sample or a particular detail. Historically, the method was used to convert drawings into fabricated samples and details. However, the entire group of techniques is comparatively recent, as the first available options became available with the advancement and penetration of digital machines. The development in rapid prototyping is a result of progressing technological advancement and a high demand in machine tool ...

Rapid prototyping is the most convenient way to get a replica of a three-dimensional design CAD-generated 3D application way.

These physical models can be only aesthetic and useful for the study of the potential market of the product, or they may meet some or most of the mechanical requirements which would have the final piece, offering, in this case, the possibility to perform functional tests and approval before there even preliminary molds. That man made his hands the means that would shape the objects that determine their evolution, devised object, the object designed: tools, utensils, art, and beauty, among others. Use of science was done to create the elements that should give matter and harmony with their creations. ...

Abstract

Jade has been an important part of Chinese culture since Ancient times, when it was used to make various weapons and tools. The reason for this is because it is believed to have positive powers. Some of the attributes attributed to jade are purity, gentlemanliness, the ability to send one’s soul on a positive journey and to prevent misfortune from befalling a person. This is why jade was used in burial rituals, sacrifices and other religious ceremonies. Nevertheless, despite the importance of jade to the Chinese culture for many centuries only the very wealthy were permitted to own ...

Abrigo do Lagar Velho is a rock-shelter in the Portuguese valley that is famous for the stratigraphic range of the Upper Paleolithic human occupations within that area.

Absolute dating technique (chronometric dating) refers to the process of revealing the age on a certain time scale.

Acclimatization is the response of an organism to a gradual change in environmental conditions by adjusting and sustaining within these changes. Acheulian (Acheulean) is a tool made of stone that had round cutting edges and was used during the Lower Palaeolithic era.

Adolescent growth spurt refers to the sharp growth in height and weight rates t during adolescence.

Aegyptopithecus refers to the extinct primate of the Oligocene Period, resembling a modern-day lemur, whose fossils were found in Egypt. Afar Triangle is the region that is part of the ...

Describe which general fossil primate groups appear and radiate during the following geological epochs: Eocene, Miocene, Pliocene, Pleistocene. For each of the geological epochs, identify the general primate group that first appears and radiates during that epoch. In addition, give the time range in millions of years for each epoch and provide at least one example of a specific primate genus and/ or species that is representative of each general primate group. 2. List and briefly describe at least five elements of the post-cranial anatomy found in humans, but not in apes, that facilitate efficient bipedal locomotion. Provide specific ...

1) What is the importance of Geodesy for Surveying? Why do you think that Geomatics

Should students know about Geodesy? Discuss

Geology enables the determination of the alignment of land, including the position, territories, portion and shape through the application of theodolites, land data systems or other geodetic survey tools. Also, it is through geology that resulted in the creation of the GPS (Geo Information Satellite) systems which as a result has resulted in the optimal exploration of space and regionally associated information. Besides, geodesy for surveying, aids in the assessing the quality of control information to regulate the necessity for extra survey information for ...

Introduction

In our everyday life, we experience stress at every corner. Instances like losing a loved one, losing a job or even divorce can make an individual feel sad, lonely, scared, nervous or anxious. It is our normal response to such stimuli, and they are usually accompanied by physiological changes in our body systems. According to the diagnostic and statistical manual (DSM) of mental disorders, mental illness have been categorized into several groups. DSM-IV used axes to categorize mental disorders into five axes. The first axis included all the psychological diagnostic categories except for the mental retardation and personality disorder. ...

The modern world is divided into two major geopolitical axes concentrated around the Middle East. One of the axes consists of the countries that resist to Israel (Iraq, Lybia, Syria, Russia, China, Iran, Palestine), and the other one includes its supporters (the USA, Saudi Arabia, France, UK, Egypt, Turkey). The aim of this paper is to analyze the reasons that divided the two geopolitical axes and united each of them at the local, regional, and international levels in Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Lybia, and Palestine-Israel wars. Palestine-Israel conflict has a long story. After the end of the Shah monarchy in ...

Introduction During manufacturing and production processes, material handling is key in realizing high throughputs. Most industries however still use manual techniques such as trucks, conveyor belts, and roller chains despite the discovery of automated and advanced systems which could make transportation easier. This is because of cost-related issues. In the long run however, cutting on overhead costs, reliability and flexibility in ...

Abstract

Permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) are a type of motors that have permanent magnets mounted on the rotors instead of the rotor windings. This particular design gives the motor a few advantages over ordinary induction synchronous motors. The magnets attached to the rotor do not require excitation, which reduces the power consumption in PMSM. This gives the motor high operational efficiency and reduces the motor active diameter. PMSM are therefore associated with applications that require high torque but have limited operation space. The permanent magnets suffer from flux leakage and are therefore aligned in a pattern that minimizes flux ...

The use of collinearity in imaging is a very versatile technique for image correction. The process is applicable in taking of picture using sensors from above the ground. The science behind the process is helping in converting several images taken into an orthographic image format. The camera does a transformation to a 3 x 3 matrix system which removes relief from the picture and making it machine readable. This form of change does its conversations within the ranges of changes in the X Y and Z axes of telemetry (Han, Guo, and Chou 313-316). The imaging dimensions taken have ...

Transgender and the Use of MMPI-2

The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) test is a self-report measure of psychopathology and the personality structures in adults. As opposed to other similar tests, it is difficult for those subjected to it to give a false impression or deny` the existence of a problem. It is also possible to conduct empirical research using the MMPI-2 tests, as it gives an opportunity to give quantitative evidence. Therefore, it is more practical when evaluating psychological issues. It is especially the case in addressing the psychological issues of the diverse transgender population (Tellegen, et al., 2003). Interventions such as hormonal treatment ...

Introduction

The DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) is one of the most essential diagnostic as well as classification tools used in clinical practice especially in psychiatry, research and other related fields. The tool serves as an authoritative guide in regard to the diagnosis that can used to determine the appropriate the treatment for various mental disorders (Jacob & Patel, 2014). In the light of this, the tool contains various descriptions, symptoms as well as other criteria that is used in the diagnosis of various mental disorders encountered in clinical practice. On the one hand, the tool provides a ...
