8/25/11 Engineering Research Ms. Carter Background: The I-35W Bridge ran over the Mississippi river in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It was about 1,900 feet long and was eight lanes wide (MPR News, 2007). The bridge was made up of three parts of steel truss, the deck, superstructure, and substructure. The formation of it was a split deck, meaning the longitudinal trusses were parallel to traffic. The bridge was built and ready for traffic by 1967. The bridge on average would have about 150,000 cars

operation and design of large machine systems such as aviation vehicles and aerospace vessels, arise from human factors . It is from such challenges that human-factor engineering has emerged, determined to optimize the interaction between man and machines for the purposes of safety and efficiency. As such, human-factors engineering concerns itself with operating procedures and the training of personnel , as well as issues of interface design (Britannica , 2008 ). These are crucial issues to aviation

Usage of Applicable Mathematics in Biomedical Engineering (Macro and Micro Biomechanics) Biomedical engineering is an emerging discipline which links medicine, biology, and technology in order to tackle medical problems using an engineering approach. As such, it is heavily influenced by engineering principles and uses applicable mathematics in nearly all of its aspects. It is important to note that applied mathematics (vector algebra, calculus, numerical approaches to solving functions, etc
