A saturated clayey soil deposit, with H0= 35 ft thickness, is characterized with an initial void ratio, e0, equal to 2.0. To facilitate the construction of a new structure, a 5 foot thick layer of structural fill is placed and compacted with γ= 130 pcf. Following several months, the void ratio has decrease to 1.7. How much settlement has occurred at the ground surface (assume no settlement of the strong, compacted structural fill)?

For each of the following process: a) sketch the p-v diagram, b)sketch t-s diagram, c) sketch t-v diagram, d) sketch the boundary work on one of the diagrams (a, b or c) and e) sketch the reversible heat transfer on one of the diagrams (a, b or c): 1- isobaric process from compressed liquid to superheated vapor 2- isothermal process from compressed liquid to superheated vapor 3- isentropic process from compressed liquid to superheated vapor

What is the main objective of using reheat rankine cycle?

A)-in the process of engineering design, explain the contribution of material selection. b)- explain the procedure of synthesis as is employed in engineering design. c)- is there any relationship between ergonomics and engineering design? explain. d)- safety consideration in engineering design includes human, product and the enviroment . explain how safety will be incorporated into the design?
