...HEAT TREATMENT REPORT By RUSSELL SMITH 2060345 For ARNOLD ROWNTREE of SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY DUE DATE: 12/4/13 SYNOPSIS The heat treatment report contained within these pages is the result of a lab practical where two samples, ‘as is’ and ‘quenched’, are tested for hardness using the Vickers method. The data obtained from these samples was, ‘as is’ HV204.9 and ‘quenched’ 472.0’. This quantified data has been analysed and discussed. Comparisons of this data have been made, and have led to a conclusion, that is clearly visible with scrutinising. This conclusion shows us that the hardening of a suitably high in carbon steel by the method of quenching is an extremely efficient method. Further testing would be recommended. Table of contents Aim: 2 Introduction: 2 Method: 2 Results: 3 Table 1 Graph 1 Graph 2 Discussion: Conclusion: Bibliography/References: AIM: The aim of this practical is to compare and contrast the mechanical properties of a high carbon steel in two conditions.

...The Agony of Diesel Engine Oil Particle Counts * Print Jim Fitch, Noria Corporation Tags: particle counting, oil analysis If cleaner motor oil extends engine service life, why aren’t labs reporting particle counts? Anyone who has worked in an oil analysis lab knows the challenges of counting and sizing particles in soot-laden diesel engine oil. Historically, most labs have chosen not to attempt particle counts with black oils. However, there is increasing user interest to have such numbers included in oil analysis reports, and some labs have already begun to comply using various instruments and methodologies. The increasing interest in contaminant monitoring of crankcase oils is driven in part by the many studies that have reported the positive effects gained from improved filtration on engine service life. One such study by General Motors documented that upgraded filter performance reduced engine wear by 50 percent. Statistics like this are hard to trivialize. In condition monitoring, any property that is important to machine reliability and life extension should be a property that is measured, assuming it is technically and economically feasible. Of course, this is the point of considerable consternation by the oil labs when it comes to crankcase oils. How does one perform practical particle counts on opaque fluids, achieving precision and cost efficiency at the same time? Before we examine the specific challenges of particle count methodologies, let’s review...

...The seven categories of the expanded CIA triangle are confidentiality, integrity, availability, authentication, accuracy, utility, and possession. I will now go over each and give them a little substance. I used the link provided in the instructor files which was very helpful by the way. Confidentiality “Confidentiality ensures that only those with the rights and privileges to access information are able to do so. When unauthorized individuals or systems can view information, confidentiality is breached.” (http://arapaho.nsuok.edu/~hutchisd/IS_4853/C6572_01.pdf) “In an organization, the value of confidentiality of information is especially high when it involves personal information about employees, customers, or patients. Individuals who deal with an organization expect that their personal information will remain confidential, whether the organization is a federal agency, such as the Internal Revenue Service, or a business.” ((http://arapaho.nsuok.edu/~hutchisd/IS_4853/C6572_01.pdf.) This is a concept true in the Army there are two different levels of security clearances for everyone. There is the secret and the top secret each requires a vigorous investigation into a person’s past to make sure they should have the level of clearance they are requesting. If a person doesn’t have at least a secret clearance they are not allowed to access the SIPRnet, which is the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network. This network protocol holds all of the units secure data and can only...

Student’s Name: _________________________________ Signature: __________________________________ Date: __________________________________ This and other SimBio Virtual Labs® are accessible through SimBio’s SimUText System®. . SimBio Virtual Labs®: EcoBeaker® The Barnacle Zone Background When we tell our kids about different species and where they live, we naturally start talking about weather and the physical environment. Camels are adapted to life in the desert and can go a long time without water. Polar bears live in the Arctic and are adapted to cold with their thick layers of insulation. A polar bear wouldn’t be very happy in the desert, and a camel would have a hard time in the Arctic (though a herd of camels pulling a sled over the ice is an amusing image). The underlying idea is that in order to be adapted to one environment, you necessarily give up the ability to live in other environments. But is this true for most species? Do species live where they do primarily because of their adaptations to the physical environment, or might the other species in the environment also be important? The intertidal zone of rocky coastlines makes an interesting natural laboratory in which...

Soap is a salt of a compound as a fatty acid. A soap molecule consist of a long hydrocarbon chain(composed of hydrogens and carbons) with a carboxylic acid group on one end which is ionic bonded to a metal ion, usually in sodium and potassium. Detergents are structurally similar to soaps, but differ in water-soluble portion. In this experiment we had to prepare soap and compare its properties to that of a synthetic detergent. We also had to compare the relative cleansing ability and costs of soap and some detergents. We were using saponification which date back to 600 BC. There were two different parts for this experiment that requires us to let the making of the soap.

...Lab #1 – Report file Identifying Threats and Vulnerabilities in an IT Infrastructure Course Name and Number: Risk Management IS355 Student Name: Sherry Best Instructor Name: Nicole Goodyear Lab Due Date: 1/16/2018 In your Lab Report file, describe how risk can impact each of the seven domains of a typical IT infrastructure: User, Workstation, Local Area Network (LAN), Local Area Network to Wide Area Network (LAN-to-WAN), Wide Area Network (WAN), Remote Access, and System/Application domains. Risk is the likelihood that a loss will occur. A loss results in a compromise to business functions or assets. • User Domain can come in various forms; people are the weak link here such as a user writing a password on a sticky note and sticking under the keyboard or on the monitor. Unknown to the user a malicious individual can log unto the network or domain using that person's credential to steal or launch a DoS or a DDoS attack. This can overwhelm the entire network that can lead to loss of revenue for the organization....

...Questions for the Merck Case Create a decision tree for Merck. The 2 leftmost branches would identify the alternatives related to licensing Davarink (specifically license versus not to license). Next, if Merck decides to pursue license, they go into phase I which results in a success, or failure. Phase I success is followed by phase II where Merck has the opportunity to develop the drug to treat depression alone, weight loss alone, or both, or contemplate phase II failure. Finally phase II success for different options leads to phase III, and there are success or failure related outcomes for each of the alternatives in phase II (i.e. developing the drug to treat depression, weight loss, or both). HINTS: Within each phase, remember that the probabilities of various outcomes (including failure, which is not always mentioned as an option) should add up to 100%. In each phase, the stated cost already includes fees paid to LAB. For example, cost of Phase I is $30 million (this number includes $5 million paid to LAB). A careful read of the case is critical to get the tree, various probabilities and the cash flows right. Please be sure to include your decision tree along with your answer to the questions below. 1) What is the expected value in launching Davarink as an antidepressant only? 2) What is the expected value in launching Davarink to treat only weight loss? 3) What is the expected value in launching Davarink for possibility of separate...
