The axial compressive forces on a building column have been determined as: dead load = 160 kips; live load = 230 kips; wind load= plusminus 150 kips (the wind load may act either as pressure or as suction). determine the maximum factored load. what is the controlling load combination(s). also, if the resistance factor is 0.85, what is the required nominal strength of the column?

Asingle-geared blanking press has a stroke of 200 mm and a rated capacity of 320 kn. a cam driven ram is assumed to be capable of delivering the full press load at constant force during the last 15 percent of a constant-velocity stroke. the camshaft has an average speed of 90 rev/min and is geared to the flywheel shaft at a 6: 1 ratio. the total work done is to include an allowance of 16 percent for friction a) estimate the maximum energy fluctuation b) find the rim weight for an effective diameter of 1.2 m and a coefficient of speed fluctuation of 0.10

The drive force for diffusion is 7 fick's first law can be used to solve the non-steady state diffusion. a)-true b)-false

The characteristic roots of a dynamic system are: 1.7920 1.8160 i, -1.7920 1.8160 i, -0.4160 what is the order of this system? what are the settling time and damping ratio of the system?
