  • Key Concepts for Future QIS Learners Workshop Output Published Online May 13, 2020
    Key Concepts for Future QIS Learners Workshop output published online May 13, 2020 Background and Overview On behalf of the Interagency Working Group on Workforce, Industry and Infrastructure, under the NSTC Subcommittee on Quantum Information Science (QIS), the National Science Foundation invited 25 researchers and educators to come together to deliberate on defining a core set of key concepts for future QIS learners that could provide a starting point for further curricular and educator development activities. The deliberative group included university and industry researchers, secondary school and college educators, and representatives from educational and professional organizations. The workshop participants focused on identifying concepts that could, with additional supporting resources, help prepare secondary school students to engage with QIS and provide possible pathways for broader public engagement. This workshop report identifies a set of nine Key Concepts. Each Concept is introduced with a concise overall statement, followed by a few important fundamentals. Connections to current and future technologies are included, providing relevance and context. The first Key Concept defines the field as a whole. Concepts 2-6 introduce ideas that are necessary for building an understanding of quantum information science and its applications. Concepts 7-9 provide short explanations of critical areas of study within QIS: quantum computing, quantum communication and quantum sensing. The Key Concepts are not intended to be an introductory guide to quantum information science, but rather provide a framework for future expansion and adaptation for students at different levels in computer science, mathematics, physics, and chemistry courses. As such, it is expected that educators and other community stakeholders may not yet have a working knowledge of content covered in the Key Concepts.

  • Impulse and Momentum
    Impulse and Momentum All particles with mass experience the effects of impulse and momentum. Momentum and inertia are similar concepts that describe an objects motion, however inertia describes an objects resistance to change in its velocity, and momentum refers to the magnitude and direction of it's motion. Momentum is an important parameter to consider in many situations such as braking in a car or playing a game of billiards. An object can experience both linear momentum and angular momentum. The nature of linear momentum will be explored in this module. This section will discuss momentum and impulse and the interconnection between them. We will explore how energy lost in an impact is accounted for and the relationship of momentum to collisions between two bodies. This section aims to provide a better understanding of the fundamental concept of momentum. Understanding Momentum Any body that is in motion has momentum. A force acting on a body will change its momentum. The momentum of a particle is defined as the product of the mass multiplied by the velocity of the motion. Let the variable represent momentum. ... Eq. (1) The Principle of Momentum Recall Newton's second law of motion. ... Eq. (2) This can be rewritten with accelleration as the derivate of velocity with respect to time. ... Eq. (3) If this is integrated from time to ... Eq. (4) Moving the initial momentum to the other side of the equation yields ... Eq. (5) Here, the integral in the equation is the impulse of the system; it is the force acting on the mass over a period of time to .

It is an innovative alternative to traditional systems and provides a number of significant benefits. The ventilation of car parks is essential for removing vehicle exhausts Fumes and smoke in case of fire containing harmful pollutants. So design of impulse systems is usually proven by use of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) analysis. In this study considered one of the car parking basement which is in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and study was conducted by using ANSYS-Fluent. The field study was carried to collect the actual data of boundary conditions for CFD simulation. In this study, two Cases of jet fan smoke ventilation systems were considered, one has 8 jet fans according to the customer and another one has 11 jet fans which positions were changed accordingly. Base on the comparison of simulation data, ventilation system with 11 jet fans can help to improve the evacuation of fumes in the car parking area and it is also observed that the concentration of CO minimized within 15 minutes. Keywords: Impulse ventilation; CFD; AMC hospital; Jet fans The CFD model accounted for columns, beams, internal walls and other construction elements which could form an obstruction to the Introduction air flow as shown in Figure 1 and total car parking area is 3500 2m .

  • Impulse Response of Civil Structures from Ambient Noise Analysis by German A
    Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, Vol. 100, No. 5A, pp. 2322–2328, October 2010, doi: 10.1785/0120090285 Ⓔ Short Note Impulse Response of Civil Structures from Ambient Noise Analysis by German A. Prieto, Jesse F. Lawrence, Angela I. Chung, and Monica D. Kohler Abstract Increased monitoring of civil structures for response to earthquake motions is fundamental to reducing seismic risk. Seismic monitoring is difficult because typically only a few useful, intermediate to large earthquakes occur per decade near instrumented structures. Here, we demonstrate that the impulse response function (IRF) of a multistory building can be generated from ambient noise. Estimated shear- wave velocity, attenuation values, and resonance frequencies from the IRF agree with previous estimates for the instrumented University of California, Los Angeles, Factor building. The accuracy of the approach is demonstrated by predicting the Factor build- ing’s response to an M 4.2 earthquake. The methodology described here allows for rapid, noninvasive determination of structural parameters from the IRFs within days and could be used for state-of-health monitoring of civil structures (buildings, bridges, etc.) before and/or after major earthquakes.

  • Actions for Flood Resilient Homes: Pumping Guidance
    Actions for Flood Resilient Homes: Pumping Guidance If dry floodproofing methods fail during a large storm or you’ve chosen wet floodproofing, you may end up with a significant amount of water in your basement. Though your impulse may be to remove the water as soon as possible, it’s important to remember that moving too quickly may cause structural damage to your home. Even though flood waters may have receded, there is still water in the ground that may be exerting force against your basement walls. If that force is greater than the force of water inside your basement, the foundation, basement walls, or floors may rupture or crack. Before flood action During flood action After flood action Pumping procedure—when and how much to pump If you need to pump water out of your basement or house, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends taking the following steps to avoid serious damage to your home. 1. Begin pumping only when floodwaters are no longer covering the ground outside. 2. Pump out 1 foot of water, mark the water level, and wait overnight. 3. Check the water level the next day. If the level rose to the previous mark, it is still too early to drain the basement. 4. Wait 24 hours, pump the water down 1 foot, and mark the water level. Check the level the next day. 5. When the water level stops returning to your mark, pump out 2 to 3 feet and wait overnight. Repeat this process daily until all of the water is out of the basement.

  • High Temperatures Predicted in the Granitic Basement of Northwest Alberta - an Assessment of the Egs Energy Potential
    PROCEEDINGS, Thirty-Ninth Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering Stanford University, Stanford, California, February 24-26, 2014 SGP-TR-202 HIGH TEMPERATURES PREDICTED IN THE GRANITIC BASEMENT OF NORTHWEST ALBERTA - AN ASSESSMENT OF THE EGS ENERGY POTENTIAL Jacek Majorowicz1*, Greg Nieuwenhuis1, Martyn Unsworth1, Jordan Phillips1 and Rebecca Verveda1 1University of Alberta Department of Physics, Canada *email: [email protected] Keywords: Heat flow, EGS, Alberta, Canada ABSTRACT Northwest Alberta is characterized by high subsurface temperatures that may represent a significant geothermal resource. In this paper we present new data that allows us to make predictions of the temperatures that might be found within the crystalline basement rocks. In this region the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (WCSB) is composed of up to 3 km of Phanerozoic sedimentary rocks with low thermal conductivity, which act as a thermal blanket. Commercial well-logging data was cleaned of erroneous data and corrected for paleoclimatic effects to give an average geothermal gradient of 35 K per km, and maximum geothermal gradients reaching 50K per km. These gradients, along with a thermal conductivity model of sedimentary rocks, were then used to estimate heat flow across the unconformity at the base of the WCSB. The calculations assumed a heat generation of 0.5 µW/m3 within the sedimentary rocks. Estimation of temperatures within the crystalline basement rocks requires knowledge of the thermal conductivity (TC) and heat generation (HG) of these rocks. These are mainly granitic Precambrian rocks. Thermal conductivity (TC) and heat generation (HG) of the basement rocks were measured on samples recovered from hundreds of wells that sampled the Pre-Cambrian basement rocks.

  • Newtonian Mechanics Is Most Straightforward in Its Formulation and Is Based on Newton’S Second Law
    CLASSICAL MECHANICS D. A. Garanin September 30, 2015 1 Introduction Mechanics is part of physics studying motion of material bodies or conditions of their equilibrium. The latter is the subject of statics that is important in engineering. General properties of motion of bodies regardless of the source of motion (in particular, the role of constraints) belong to kinematics. Finally, motion caused by forces or interactions is the subject of dynamics, the biggest and most important part of mechanics. Concerning systems studied, mechanics can be divided into mechanics of material points, mechanics of rigid bodies, mechanics of elastic bodies, and mechanics of fluids: hydro- and aerodynamics. At the core of each of these areas of mechanics is the equation of motion, Newton's second law. Mechanics of material points is described by ordinary differential equations (ODE). One can distinguish between mechanics of one or few bodies and mechanics of many-body systems. Mechanics of rigid bodies is also described by ordinary differential equations, including positions and velocities of their centers and the angles defining their orientation. Mechanics of elastic bodies and fluids (that is, mechanics of continuum) is more compli- cated and described by partial differential equation. In many cases mechanics of continuum is coupled to thermodynamics, especially in aerodynamics. The subject of this course are systems described by ODE, including particles and rigid bodies. There are two limitations on classical mechanics. First, speeds of the objects should be much smaller than the speed of light, v c, otherwise it becomes relativistic mechanics. Second, the bodies should have a sufficiently large mass and/or kinetic energy.
