- There should be only one reason that builder is running away from mutation.....Property being sold on POA which now banned by supreme court.
Mutation in House tax and MCD are different things. A person should get the mutation done in both departments as soon as registry is done.
Infact, person should also check in both these departments before final payment for any dues left.CommentQuote0Flag
- Thanks Masque. As per builder, the plot is freehold and they have the registry in their name. However, they do not have mutation done.
Please suggest:
1. Should I ask the builder the get the mutation done in their name first and then buy it or get the property mutation directly in my name once I buy it. What are the risks involved?
2. I remember a friend of mine had bought a property by paying some initial amount and then completed the transaction once the seller got the property mutation done in his name. Is this the correct procedure?
3. Also, can I check with MCD in whose name is the current mutation?
4. Is mutation done for the entire plot or floor by floor?
Thanks in advance.CommentQuote0Flag

NUR-SULTAN (Reuters) – Kazakhstan on Friday ordered most companies in its capital Nur-Sultan and biggest city Almaty to suspend work between March 30 and April 5, the government said, as part of measures to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
Only state bodies, healthcare organisations, media, food retailers, pharmacies and other essential service providers will be allowed to continue work, it said in a statement.
The Central Asian nation has confirmed 124 coronavirus cases, most of them in the two largest cities, and reported its first death this week.
On Thursday, the government barred residents of Nur-Sultan and Almaty from leaving their homes, except for work or to buy groceries and medicines.

With the merger of Cornwall, Somerset, and Wiltshire; three counties worth of council members found themselves in a situation to consolidate efforts. The first days of Devon were led by the last Somerset Council. From the ashes rose 4 council lists: ACTS, UD, PATRONS, and NEP. In November of 1459, a new list joined the field: MAGIC.
- Accountability, Communication, Transparency, and Security (ACTS)
- United Devon (UD)
- PATRONS and Independents (P and I) / Devon Independents (DI)
- National English Party (NEP)
- (M)ake connections - (A)sk for input - (G)ive advice, options and information - (I)nspire role play - (C)elebrate Devon (MAGIC)
- Neon Inititative Devon (NID)
Current Council: January 5, 1460 - March 4, 1460Edit
The election of the Sixth Council of Devon was met with quiet civility. ACTs and MAGIC combined forces to infuse new blood into the political system. The NID Party, lead by John_fitzrobin, have approached this election on the platform getting rid of taxes and rasing the mine wages. With 6 Seats each it was an interesing few days, but Mok was elected as Count. Sadly due to the inactivity of the ACTS(EA) members, the NID list members did all the work that term. They were hindered often by bigitory from ACTS supporter, but managed to fullfil a successful term. John_fitzrobin is to be thanked for stepping up as Lord Protector and making sure the council continued their hard work and transparency to the public.
NEWS EXCEPT: LONDON (AAP) – The list ACTS, MAGIC et al received more than half of the votes in the Devon council election. However with the system of proportional representation, they don't have an absolute majority of the seats. They will have to make a coalition government with with members from a rival list.
ACTS(EA): 53.3% (6 seats)
NID: 46.7% (6 seats)
Previous Devon Councils: Edit
- Fifth Council: November 6, 1459 - January 4, 1460
- ACTS 76.3% (9 seats) (Robinoflocksley, Count)
- UD 23.7% (3 seats)
- Overall, a relatively quiet election for the Fifth Council of Devon, two contending lists: ACTS and UD. A new council list arrived on the political scene, MAGIC, however they were not able to provide a complete list in time for the election. This cycle's election is marked by the largest percentage of voting seen for any political party: ACTS with 76.3%.
NEWS EXCEPT: LONDON (AAP) – The list Accountability, Communication, Transparency, and Security have taken the lead in the Devon county council election race, and have gained an absolute majority of the seats. They can govern alone.
- Fourth Council: September 6, 1459 - November 5, 1459
- ACTS 66.4% (8 seats) (Robinoflocksley, Count)
- UD 20.2% (2 seats)
- DI 13.4% (2 seats)
For the first time in Devon's History, all council lists had been filled before the polls were opened. However, the hopes of a civil politics were dashed by anonymous "scrollers" spouting rude words against the parties in an attempt to foster distrust. ACTS was the primary target; UD and DI recieved rude "scrollers" as well. The addition of these low blow "scrollers", definitely did not hinder ACTS. They maintained their eight (8) seats and only lost 2.2% of the votes. In the end, those who made it onto council, shook hands and moved on.
NEWS EXCEPT: LONDON (AAP) – The list Accountability, Communication, Transparency, and Security have taken the lead in the Devon county council election race, and have gained an absolute majority of the seats. They can govern alone.
- Third Council: July 9, 1459 - September 6, 1459
- ACTS 68.6% (8 seats) (Alisa, Countess)
- UD 31.4% (4 seats)
ACTS had a very strong showing in the beginning of the election, being the first and almost only completed Council List running for election. United Devon was able to secure their last seats 4 days before the elections, which allowed their patient votes to finally cast a vote. The landslide at which ACTS won the election was speculated to be based on the late entry of United Devon and the absense of both the PATRONS and the National English Party.
News Excerpt: LONDON (AAP) – The list Accountability, Communication, Transparency and Security have taken the lead in the Devon county council election race, and have gained an absolute majority of the seats. They can govern alone.
- Second Council: May 9, 1459 - July 8, 1459
- ACTS 45.1% (5 seats) (Alisa, Countess)
- UD 22.6% (3 seats)
- P and I 22.6% (3 seats)
- NEP 9.8% (1 seat)
- First Council: March 9, 1459 - May 8, 1459
- ACTS 33% (4 seats)
- UD 33% (4 seats) (Treena, Countess)
- P and I 24.1% (3 seats)
- NEP 9.9% (1 seat)

Robocopy are drones that once activated they copy rotational motion each other. When a drone is activated along with others, they work together as if they were one.
Daniel recently bought a factory of robocopy. A robotic arm places each robocopy randomly in an area, thus forming a set of robocopy. Each set may be composed of different numbers of robocopy. And to test them, they are activated. The activated robocopy must pass a treadmill for later deactivated and stored. Several sets of rodocopy can go through the same treadmill. The treadmill width should always be the lowest possible, but that it contains all the sets.
As Daniel is an inexperienced entrepreneur, did not do a proper planning and then had to hire additional staff to manually check which size mat he has to configure to support different sets of robocopy. Of course, this process is very costly and time consuming.
To reduce costs and increase efficiency, Daniel hired you to calculate automatically, which the smaller track width for all sets robocopy can be stored properly.
Figure 1.
Figure 2.
In Figure 1, for example, 3 robocopy were activated by the machine(A, B and C) and the smallest distance is a = 2, among BC. When the machine does the other set of robocopy (A, B, C and D) of Figure 2, the smallest distance is AB or DC, b = 3, and in this case the set of robocopy must be rotated 90 degrees to pass over the treadmill which has size 3. So, if these sets were passing by the treadmill, this would have to have a minimum width of 3.
The input consists of several test cases.
The first line consists of an integer N (1 ≤ N ≤ 10000) that represents the number of test cases.
Each test case consists of an integer C (1 ≤ C ≤ 100) indicating the number of sets of robocopy manufactured. Each set consists of an integer c (1 ≤ c ≤ 10 000) representing the number of robocopy of the set, followed by c rows of integers indicating the coordinate -100000 ≤ (x, y) ≤ 100 000 of each one robocopy of the in C.
In each row should be printed the size of the smallest treadmill to produce all sets of robocopy with accuracy of 10 decimal places.

Oscillating grid generating turbulence near gas-liquid interfaces in shear-thinning dilute polymer solutions
Author(s): T. Lacassagne, S. Simoëns, M. EL Hajem, and J.-Y. Champagne
A first experimental characterization of low Reynolds number, oscillating grid generated, and near-surface turbulence in shear-thinning dilute polymer solutions is presented. Energy transfer and horizontal damping mechanisms are evidenced. The evolution of the viscous sublayer depth can be explained by both viscous and shear-thinning effects.

Differential diffusion effects on density-driven instability of reactive flows in porous media
Author(s): Timan Lei and Kai H. Luo
In diverse applications such as enhanced oil recovery and carbon sequestration, solute A in fluid 1 diffuses into fluid 2 where it reacts with solute B following A + B → C. Pore-scale simulations based on the lattice Boltzmann method reveal intricate density-driven instability and differential diffusion effects. New fingering regimes are observed under certain combinations of density ratios, diffusivity ratios, and Rayleigh number ratios among the participating fluids and species.

Generalized Shields criterion for weakly cohesive granular materials
Author(s): Florian Brunier-Coulin, Pablo Cuéllar, and Pierre Philippe
The erosion onset and kinetics of weakly cohesive granular materials based on experimental data from optically adapted jet erosion tests is investigated. The scouring kinetics are examined qualitatively for samples with an intergranular cohesion induced by either liquid or solid bonds. From a quantitative perspective, the erosion onset for the case of solid bond cohesion is here described by a generalized form of the usual Shields criterion including a cohesion number defined from yield tensile values considering both the micro- and macroscales.

Capillary bulldozing of sedimented granular material confined in a millifluidic tube
Author(s): Guillaume Dumazer, Bjørnar Sandnes, Knut Jørgen Måløy, and Eirik G. Flekkøy
When granular matter is involved in a confined two-phase flow, three ingredients that do not usually occur together must be considered in parallel: viscosity, capillarity, and solid friction. The displacement regimes of a gas-liquid interface along a horizontal millifluidic tube containing a sedimented granular phase are documented in detail. Experimental observations are made with a simple setup, and an associated theoretical interpretation that can describe a spectrum of capillary bulldozing regimes is developed.

Structure of coherent columnar vortices in three-dimensional rotating turbulent flow
Author(s): I. V. Kolokolov, L. L. Ogorodnikov, and S. S. Vergeles
The turbulence in a fast rotating fluid becomes effectively two-dimensional. The inverse energy cascade leads to formation of coherent columnar vortices. An analytical theory describing interaction of such a vortex with turbulent pulsations is developed. The radial velocity profile of the vortex is established.

Accurate predictability of high-pressure turbine nozzle guide vane aero-thermal performance is highly desired in the development campaign due to the exposure of the component to a frequent and high heat load. In this paper, the representative vane profile in modern aero-engines is numerically studied. Aerodynamics and aero-thermal validations of the blade profile have been performed in comparison with the available experimental data. It has been shown that a satisfactory agreement could be achieved with the use of the transitional turbulence model shear stress transport γ–θ due to its superiority in capturing the laminar–turbulent transition. Sensitivity studies on the increase in the inlet turbulence intensity, inlet endwall boundary layer thickness, and inlet total temperature profile have been performed to understand the impact of inflow conditions' uncertainty on the aero-thermal predictability. Increasing the inlet turbulence intensity increases the pressure surface heat transfer coefficient and induces an earlier transition onset on the suction surface. Due to the rapid decay of turbulence intensity in the numerical model, the use of an artificially high inlet turbulence intensity has been shown to be effective in the prediction improvement. On the other hand, the change in the inlet boundary layer thickness influences the formation and strength of the secondary flow, namely, horseshoe vortex and passage vortex. These secondary flow phenomena affect the local blade surface heat transfer coefficient in the near-endwall region although the most significant rise in heat transfer is found on the endwall. The temperature distortion amplitude of a hot streak and its relative clocking position with the vane significantly affect the heat flux distribution. In contrast, the heat transfer coefficient is less sensitive to the change in hot streak conditions. However, it has been shown that increasing the temperature distortion amplitude could induce a larger difference among different clocking configurations. In addition, decreasing the difference between the fluid and wall temperature would delay the transition onset and stabilize the boundary layer. Further analysis of the unsteady effects has been carried out by comparing the steady and time-averaged flow solutions. It has been observed that the discrepancy between these solutions is attributed to the flow field nonlinearity. Thus, a significant discrepancy can be found in the laminar–turbulent transition as well as in the trailing edge region. However, since the contribution of these regions on the total area-averaged heat transfer is small, their influence on the total vane heat transfer is limited.
Vortex-induced vibrations of a confined circular cylinder for efficient flow power extraction
The effects of confinement on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a circular cylinder (diameter D) and its flow power extraction capability are presented. A two-dimensional numerical study is performed on VIV of a circular cylinder inside a parallel plate channel of height H at Reynolds numbers 100 and 150. The blockage ratio (b = D/H) is varied from 1/4 to 1/2. The cylinder is elastically mounted with a spring such that it can only vibrate transversely to the flow. It has a fixed non-dimensional mass (m*) of 10. The energy extraction process is modeled as a damper (damping ratio ζ) attached to the cylinder. With increasing blockage, the vibration amplitude of the cylinder decreases, the lock-in happens at a larger non-dimensional natural frequency of the cylinder, and the initial branch of the vibration response of the cylinder shrinks. There is a minimum value of the channel height and Reynolds number for the existence of the initial branch. The extracted power is found to increase rapidly with the blockage. For the maximum blockage (b = 1/2), the flow power extracted by the cylinder is an order of magnitude larger as compared to what it would extract in an open domain with free stream velocity equal to the channel mean velocity. The optimal mass-damping (α = m*ζ) for extracting the maximum power is found to lie between 0.2 and 0.3. An expression is derived to predict the maximum extracted power from the undamped response of a confined/unconfined cylinder.
Energy dissipation analysis based on velocity gradient tensor decomposition
A velocity gradient tensor decomposition method based on a normal frame is introduced in this paper. The velocity gradient tensor is decomposed into a compression–stretching tensor, pure rotation tensor, and pure shear tensor. The analysis shows that both the strain rate tensor and vorticity tensor in Helmholtz velocity decomposition contain shear tensor components, and the total pure shear tensor is the combination of shear components in the two tensors. Based on this decomposition and the physical meaning of each tensor term, the energy dissipation of the channel flow with or without a pressure gradient and a turbine passage flow are analyzed. The results show that the energy dissipation is caused by shear deformation and expansion and contraction deformation of the motion fluid, and pure rotation does not cause energy dissipation. In particular, the pure shear is the primary factor of energy dissipation. Shear accounts for 99.9% of energy dissipation in the fully developed turbulence of zero-pressure gradient channel flow, 99% of the energy dissipation in the separated boundary layer flow is caused by the pure shear, and 81% of the energy dissipation in the turbine stage flow is caused by pure shear.
From modulational instability to focusing dam breaks in water waves
Author(s): Félicien Bonnefoy, Alexey Tikan, François Copie, Pierre Suret, Guillaume Ducrozet, Gaurav Prabhudesai, Guillaume Michel, Annette Cazaubiel, Eric Falcon, Gennady El, and Stéphane Randoux
The Benjamin-Feir, or modulational, instability has been regarded as the main mechanism of spontaneous disintegration of broad weakly nonlinear wavepackets in deep water waves. We report water wave experiments with another result. For a range of initial parameters, a nearly rectangular initial wavepacket develops a strongly nonlinear modulation with two dispersive shock waves expanding from the edges of the wavepacket towards the center at finite speed. This is supported by theory based on the semiclassical limit of the one-dimensional focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation.

Investigation on the flow-induced noise propagation mechanism of centrifugal pump based on flow and sound fields synergy concept
This paper explores the flow-induced noise propagation mechanism of centrifugal pump from the view of flow and sound field synergy concept. First, the unsteady synergetic relationship between flow and sound fields is deduced, and the synergy angle is defined to describe the synergy degree. It is shown that the domain-averaged synergy angle (θave) changes little with flow time, which implies that the synergy degree is basically unchanged with flow time. With increasing rotational speed or flow rate, the time-averaged θave (θtave) in the impeller and the volute moves far away from 90° gradually, i.e., the synergy degree increases. Meanwhile, the noise outside the pump increases, and the variation of both the noise outside the pump and θtave tends to be gradual. The results manifested that the flow-induced noise propagation mechanism of the centrifugal pump can be well described by the change in synergy degree and the increase in synergy degree can cause the noise tending to propagate outside. In addition, the impact of the blade outlet angle on the noise propagation characteristics is investigated. Considering the synergy degree in the impeller and the volute comprehensively, the deviation of θtave from 90° decreases from 6.48° to 4.74° as the angle increases from 15° to 35°, i.e., θtave tends to approach 90°, and the synergy degree decreases gradually, indicating that increasing the blade outlet angle can weaken the tendency of noise propagating outside by decreasing the synergy degree. These conclusions can guide noise control research and engineering design.
Transition effects on flow characteristics around a static two-dimensional airfoil
Flows past a static NACA0015 airfoil are numerically investigated via Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes simulations at the Reynolds number 1.95 × 106, the Mach number 0.291, and the angle of attack (AoA) from 0° to 18°. Specifically, a one-equation local correlation-based transition model (γ model) coupled with Menter's k–ω shear stress transport (SST) model (SST–γ model) is employed to approximate the unclosed Reynolds quantities in the governing equations. Distributions of mean velocity and Reynolds stresses as well as typical integral quantities, such as the drag coefficient, lift coefficient, and moment coefficient, are calculated and compared with previously reported experimental data and present numerical data based on Menter's original k–ω SST model. It turns out that the SST–γ model enables the capture of a laminar separation bubble (LSB) near the leading edge of the airfoil and shows significant advantages over the traditional "fully turbulent" models for the prediction of static stall. As the AoA varies from 0° to 18°, the flow regime is affected by different processes, i.e., flow transition, flow separation, and interaction between the LSB and the trailing-edge separation bubble, which, respectively, correspond to the linear-lift stage, light-stall stage, and deep-stall stage.
Heat transfer enhancement and reduction in low-Rayleigh number natural convection flow with polymer additives
The effects of viscoelasticity, here caused by polymer additives, on Rayleigh Bénard convection flows are investigated via direct numerical simulations at a marginally turbulent Rayleigh number. Simulations with a range of polymer length and relaxation time scales show heat transfer enhancement (HTE) and reduction (HTR). The selection of HTE and HTR depends strongly on the maximum extensional viscosity of the solution, whereas the magnitude of heat transfer modification is a function of both the maximum extensional viscosity and relaxation time of the polymer solution. The underlying physics of HTE and HTR are explored, and a mechanism of the interaction between convection cells and polymers is proposed. The findings are extrapolated to high Ra to shed some new light onto experimental observations of HTR.
Electroosmosis of a viscoelastic fluid over non-uniformly charged surfaces: Effect of fluid relaxation and retardation time
We investigate the electroosmotic flow of a quasi-linear viscoelastic fluid over a surface having charge modulation in narrow confinements. We obtain analytical solutions using a combination of regular and matched asymptotic expansions in order to describe the viscoelastic flow field and apparent slip velocity besides pinpointing variations of the flow rate and ionic currents due to the surface charge modulation. We demonstrate excellent agreement between the asymptotic analytical solution for the flow field and the full numerical solution in the limiting condition of a thin electrical double layer and weakly viscoelastic fluid. For a wide range of flow governing parameters, we analyze the flow velocity, vortex dynamics, flow rates, and streaming current. We demonstrate that the magnitude of the observed electroosmotic slip velocity is more sensitive to the thickness of the electrical double layer rather than the viscoelasticity of the fluid. We have observed that the contribution of fluid elasticity is prominent in breaking the axial symmetry in the electroosmotic flow with the presence of periodic charge distributions, which is in contrast to the symmetric electroosmotic flow field of a Newtonian fluid over the same charge modulated walls. The results hold the key toward understanding the flow of biological fluids in microfluidic flows by leveraging electrokinetic transport over charge modulated surfaces. We believe that the results of net throughput, streaming current, and vortex dynamics will aid our understanding of the complex fluid behavior and microfluidic mixers.
Large eddy simulation of the separated flow transition on the suction surface of a high subsonic compressor airfoil
A large eddy simulation (LES) was conducted to investigate the separated flow transition on the suction surface of a high subsonic compressor airfoil at two Reynolds number (Re) conditions (1.5 × 105 and 0.8 × 105). The detailed vortex evolution in the separated shear layer was revealed. The instability amplification in the transition process and the associated loss mechanism were clarified. At Re = 1.5 × 105, the two-dimensional spanwise vortices shed periodically and were further distorted with the interaction of the streamwise evolving vortices, and then, small vortices were generated in the streamwise pairing of the neighboring spanwise vortices. Finally, three-dimensional hairpin vortices broke down into small-scale turbulent structures near the reattachment, along with the "ejection-sweeping" process near the wall. When the Reynolds number decreased to 0.8 × 105, the initial vortex shedding was not periodic, but the subsequent vortex evolution process was very similar to the case of Re = 1.5 × 105. The results have demonstrated the importance of the Tollmien–Schlichting (T–S) mechanism for the initial growth of disturbances in the attached boundary layer, but the transition process that occurred in the separated shear layer was dominated by the inviscid Kelvin–Helmholtz (K–H) instability. Moreover, a secondary instability observed in the vortex pairing process was supposed to have a great impact on the onset of transition. With the decrease in Re, the shear layer instability declined to a lower level, leading to a delayed transition. In addition, the deformation works associated with the Reynolds shear stress was found to be mainly responsible for the loss generation in the transitional flow. Compared with the traditional Reynolds average Navier–Stokes method, the LES was more accurate in predicting the profile loss at a low Re.
Effect of temperature on gelation and cross-linking of gelatin methacryloyl for biomedical applications
Hydrogels with or without chemical cross-linking have been studied and used for biomedical applications, such as tissue repair, surgical sealants, and three dimensional biofabrication. These materials often undergo a physical sol–gel or gel–sol transition between room and body temperatures and can also be chemically cross-linked at these temperatures to give dimensional stability. However, few studies have clearly shown the effect of heating/cooling rates on such transitions. Moreover, only a little is known about the effect of cross-linking temperature or the state on the modulus after cross-linking. We have established rheological methods to study these effects, an approach to determine transition temperatures, and a method to prevent sample drying during measurements. All the rheological measurements were performed minimizing the normal stress build-up to compensate for the shrinking and expansion due to temperature and phase changes. We chemically modified gelatin to give gelatin methacryloyl and determined the degree of methacryloylation by proton nuclear magnetic resonance. Using the gelatin methacryloyl as an example, we have found that the gel state or lower temperature can give more rigid gelatin-based polymers by cross-linking under visible light than the sol state or higher temperature. These methods and results can guide researchers to perform appropriate studies on material design and map applications, such as the optimal operating temperature of hydrogels for biomedical applications. We have also found that gelation temperatures strongly depend on the cooling rate, while solation temperatures are independent of the heating rate.
Secondary instability of stationary Görtler vortices originating from first/second Mack mode
This work investigates the origination of the secondary instability in Görtler vortices using the linear stability theory, BiGlobal analysis, three-dimensional linear parabolized stability equations (3DLPSEs), and direct numerical simulation (DNS). The flow over a concave wall suffering from the Görtler instability and first/second Mack mode instability is selected. Furthermore, this work simulates the evolution of infinitesimal Mack mode disturbance in a flow perturbed by finite-amplitude Görtler vortices by using DNS and 3DLPSE methods. The 3DLPSE approach accurately predicts the process of Mack mode disturbance evolving into the secondary instability of Görtler vortices, and a perfect agreement with results by DNS is obtained. The results indicate that the secondary instability of stationary Görtler vortices can originate from the first/second Mack mode. The evolutions of first/second Mack mode with different spanwise wavenumbers are performed based on 3DLPSE and compared against the BiGlobal method. The results show that the shape functions and growth rates of disturbances always tend to the results of dominant modes obtained by the BiGlobal method. Because the dominant mode might shift from one to another, the overall evolution cannot be predicted only by the BiGlobal method based on a fixed mode. According to our computations, it is deduced that the Mack modes with the same frequency and symmetric characteristics would finally develop into the secondary instability with similar shapes.
Interaction network analysis in shear thickening suspensions
Author(s): Marcio Gameiro, Abhinendra Singh, Lou Kondic, Konstantin Mischaikow, and Jeffrey F. Morris
Dense frictional particulate suspensions in a viscous liquid respond to applied shear in a complex manner that includes continuous or discontinuous shear thickening. This change in rheology as a function of particle packing fraction and/or applied stress is associated with a formation of complex interaction networks that develop on a mesoscopic scale. The properties of these networks, analyzed by the newly developed tools based on persistent homology in both two and three spatial dimensions, are found to be closely related to the macroscopic system response.

Local analysis of the clustering, velocities, and accelerations of particles settling in turbulence
Author(s): Mohammadreza Momenifar and Andrew D. Bragg
We use three-dimensional Voronoi tessellation to perform a local analysis of particle motion in isotropic turbulence while independently varying the flow Reynolds and Froude number, and particle Stokes number. Among other interesting findings, our local analysis shows that in flow regions where particles are clustered, fluid accelerations at the particle positions are significant. These results call into question the validity of the "sweep-stick" mechanism for particle clustering in turbulence, which states that inertial particles cluster in flow regions where the fluid acceleration is zero.

San Francisco : Civil engineers at the Stanford University have worked with colleagues at the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a form of concrete that could be produced on Mars or the moon.If humans do reach Mars, as NASA has planned for 2030, or even establish settlements on the moon, they would need thousands of tons of concrete to survive, because both Mars and the moon are bombarded constantly with both lethal radiation and micrometeorites that would quickly punch holes into any ordinary structure, Xinhua news agency reported.
Since it is impossible to ship tons of cement from Earth to Mars, the best bet is for humans to start making it when they arrive.The problem is that making Earth-style concrete requires tremendous amounts of heat and energy, because factories have to cook limestone to create the binding agent that holds concrete together, and energy will be in very short supply on Mars.To solve that problem, David Loftus at NASA's Ames Research Centre and Michael Lepech, an associate professor of civil and environmental engineering at Stanford School of Engineering, have formed concrete by turning to biology.
Living organisms use proteins to make things as tough as shells, bones and teeth, so the researchers began working on a concrete bound together with a protein from bovine blood.The protein is a fairly cheap by-product of slaughterhouses, and it is known to become very gluey when mixed with soil.To replicate the conditions on Mars and the moon, Lepech has combined the protein with simulated extraterrestrial soils that are similar to what's on Mars and the moon.
And because Mars has much lower gravity than Earth, which is bad for cement mixing, the researchers did their mixing with a vacuum technology used to make the composite materials in products such as boat hulls.The first batch of bio-concrete, according to a news release, was as strong as the concrete used for sidewalks and patios.It also held up well to a simulated bombardment of micrometeorites, which the researchers replicated by taking the material to the Ames Vertical Gun Range and blasting it with high-speed gas particles.
For the purposes of making concrete on Mars, the idea is to create biological "factories" of organisms that are genetically engineered to produce the protein binder.The technique could lead to more energy-efficient concrete on Earth. The production of concrete now accounts for 5 per cent of all human-generated carbon emissions, and it is the boiled limestone as the binding agent that accounts for much of that.

In a pendulum clock an escape wheel is allowed to rotate through the pitch of one tooth for each double swing of the pendulum and to transmit an impulse to the pendulum to keep it swinging. An ideal escapement would transmit the impulse without interfering with the free swing, and the impulse should be as uniform as possible. The double three-legged gravity escapement, which achieves the second of these but not the first, was invented by Edmund Beckett, afterward Lord Grimthorpe, and used by him for the great clock at Westminster, now generally known as Big Ben, which was installed in 1859. It became the standard for all really accurate tower clocks.

Most digital clocks use electronic mechanisms and LCD, LED, or VFD displays; many other display technologies are used as well (cathode ray tubes, nixie tubes, etc.). After a reset, battery change or power failure, these clocks without a backup battery or capacitor either start counting from 12:00, or stay at 12:00, often with blinking digits indicating that the time needs to be set. Some newer clocks will reset themselves based on radio or Internet time servers that are tuned to national atomic clocks. Since the advent of digital clocks in the 1960s, the use of analog clocks has declined significantly.
Wallingford's clock had a large astrolabe-type dial, showing the sun, the moon's age, phase, and node, a star map, and possibly the planets. In addition, it had a wheel of fortune and an indicator of the state of the tide at London Bridge. Bells rang every hour, the number of strokes indicating the time.[22] Dondi's clock was a seven-sided construction, 1 metre high, with dials showing the time of day, including minutes, the motions of all the known planets, an automatic calendar of fixed and movable feasts, and an eclipse prediction hand rotating once every 18 years.[23] It is not known how accurate or reliable these clocks would have been. They were probably adjusted manually every day to compensate for errors caused by wear and imprecise manufacture. Water clocks are sometimes still used today, and can be examined in places such as ancient castles and museums. The Salisbury Cathedral clock, built in 1386, is considered to be the world's oldest surviving mechanical clock that strikes the hours.[24]
If you've never seen an alarm clock that can project the time onto the wall, you may be surprised at how handy this function can be. This Mesqool clock can project the time onto the ceiling, the curtains, or just about any other surface, thanks to the 180-degree swivel. So instead of squinting at the clock through sleepy eyes in the morning, you can just look up at the ceiling. The clock also includes AM/FM Radio, so you can listen to your favorite morning talk shows or follow along with your sports team while you get ready in the morning.
Besides the Chinese astronomical clock of Su Song in 1088 mentioned above, in Europe there were the clocks constructed by Richard of Wallingford in St Albans by 1336, and by Giovanni de Dondi in Padua from 1348 to 1364. They no longer exist, but detailed descriptions of their design and construction survive,[22][23] and modern reproductions have been made.[23] They illustrate how quickly the theory of the mechanical clock had been translated into practical constructions, and also that one of the many impulses to their development had been the desire of astronomers to investigate celestial phenomena.

Early clock dials did not indicate minutes and seconds. A clock with a dial indicating minutes was illustrated in a 1475 manuscript by Paulus Almanus,[31] and some 15th-century clocks in Germany indicated minutes and seconds.[32] An early record of a seconds hand on a clock dates back to about 1560 on a clock now in the Fremersdorf collection.[33]:417–418[34]

In 1675, Huygens and Robert Hooke invented the spiral balance spring, or the hairspring, designed to control the oscillating speed of the balance wheel. This crucial advance finally made accurate pocket watches possible. The great English clockmaker, Thomas Tompion, was one of the first to use this mechanism successfully in his pocket watches, and he adopted the minute hand which, after a variety of designs were trialled, eventually stabilised into the modern-day configuration.[40] The rack and snail striking mechanism for striking clocks, was introduced during the 17th century and had distinct advantages over the 'countwheel' (or 'locking plate') mechanism. During the 20th century there was a common misconception that Edward Barlow invented rack and snail striking. In fact, his invention was connected with a repeating mechanism employing the rack and snail.[41] The repeating clock, that chimes the number of hours (or even minutes) was invented by either Quare or Barlow in 1676. George Graham invented the deadbeat escapement for clocks in 1720.

Auditory and projection clocks can be used by people who are blind or have limited vision. There are also clocks for the blind that have displays that can be read by using the sense of touch. Some of these are similar to normal analog displays, but are constructed so the hands can be felt without damaging them.

Fortunately, Ruggie takes the ease and convenience out of simply rolling over and slapping "snooze." With Ruggie, you must apply pressure to a plush mat for three seconds to stop the alarm. The alarm can be set to 120 decibels, too, to further annoy you out of bed. For sake of perspective, 120 decibels is on par with the noise level of a chainsaw. Pleasant.
Simple clocks intended mainly for notification were installed in towers, and did not always require faces or hands. They would have announced the canonical hours or intervals between set times of prayer. Canonical hours varied in length as the times of sunrise and sunset shifted. The more sophisticated astronomical clocks would have had moving dials or hands, and would have shown the time in various time systems, including Italian hours, canonical hours, and time as measured by astronomers at the time. Both styles of clock started acquiring extravagant features such as automata.

Electric clocks that are powered from the AC supply often use synchronous motors. The supply current alternates with a frequency of 50 hertz in many countries, and 60 hertz in others. The rotor of the motor rotates at a speed that is related to the alternation frequency. Appropriate gearing converts this rotation speed to the correct ones for the hands of the analog clock. The development of electronics in the 20th century led to clocks with no clockwork parts at all. Time in these cases is measured in several ways, such as by the alternation of the AC supply, vibration of a tuning fork, the behaviour of quartz crystals, or the quantum vibrations of atoms. Electronic circuits divide these high-frequency oscillations to slower ones that drive the time display. Even mechanical clocks have since come to be largely powered by batteries, removing the need for winding.
Remember when the idea of chasing your alarm clock around the house was absolutely mad? Well, Clocky made it a reality, and they haven't gone out of style yet. Bed shakers may work for some, but if you can ignore it and snooze on through, chasing your alarm clock around the room may be the next best thing.

Sonic Alert's Sonic Bomb Alarm Clock doesn't just rely on its 113-decibel alarm to pry your eyelids open (for comparison, that's about the same decibel level as a car horn or snow blower going off in your ear), it also has a shaker device that slips underneath your mattress or pillow to jiggle you awake, and red flashing lights that trigger with the alarm.

Wall clocks both help you keep time and accent your space as decor that fills an empty wall space above the mantel or kitchen counter. For a clock that serves dual purposes, consider a numberless option—the minimalist look doesn't exude obvious functionality, but the time is still obvious and the clock works as a unique piece of hanging wall art—perfect for the living room or dining room. If you're not necessarily looking to make a bold style statement but still want a chic timepiece, embossed clocks fit the bill. The numbers add interest and dimension and keep the clock looking artful—another great option for the dining room or kitchen. For a family-friendly clock, look for large faces and clean-lined, easy-to-read numbering. With form and function in perfect accordance, this type also fits in beautifully on a bedroom wall. Don't forget about the home office, where time is of the essence. Minimalist designs in handsome walnut and sleek iron can add either a throwback or modern feel to the space. Wall clocks of all designs not only keep you, your family and your guests aware of the time, but also serve as great decorative elements to your home.
A piece of art and a functional home essential – this wall clock is a lovely addition to any home. Inspired by contemporary designs, it showcases an open frame crafted from metal wire. The geometric pattern will stand out against any color wall, while the golden finish adds a pop of glamorous appeal. At the center is a golden disk with two sleek black hands. This wall clock requires two AA batteries (not included).
In atomic clocks the controller is an evacuated microwave cavity attached to a microwave oscillator controlled by a microprocessor. A thin gas of caesium atoms is released into the cavity where they are exposed to microwaves. A laser measures how many atoms have absorbed the microwaves, and an electronic feedback control system called a phase-locked loop tunes the microwave oscillator until it is at the frequency that causes the atoms to vibrate and absorb the microwaves. Then the microwave signal is divided by digital counters to become the clock signal.[72]
The Philips Wake-Up Light offers a choice of five pleasant nature sounds — or for the more traditionally minded, FM radio — for your morning wake-up call, but the real star of the show is the sunlight simulation. Twenty to forty minutes before your programmed wake-up time (you set both times), the clock will slowly begin to simulate the sunrise, complete with the softest dawn reds and oranges gently brightening into sunny, yellow light.

In a master clock system, electricity is used to give direct impulses to the pendulum, which in turn causes the clock's gear train to move, or to lift a lever after it has imparted an impulse to the pendulum. In various modern master clocks the pendulum operates a light count wheel that turns through the pitch of one tooth every double swing and is arranged to release a lever every half minute. This lever gives an impulse to the pendulum and is then restored to its original position by an electromagnet. The pulse of current that operates the electromagnet can also be transmitted to a series of distant dials, or slave clocks, advancing the hands of each through the space of a half minute. Thus, a master clock can control scores of dials in a large group of buildings, as well as such other apparatus as time recorders and sirens.
A: From personal experience, a firsthand account of an insomniac, if you will, Sleep Sense really did the trick. There's a million reasons why you might not be sleeping, and while most of the time it's stress or something of the sort, it could also be a deficiency of certain vitamins and minerals. Sleep Sense comes with melatonin, magnesium, and other ingredients, all designed to help you sleep, without the fear of becoming addicted or dependent on them. It took about three years to get over insomnia (if the TV is on, I still can't sleep), but after enough trial and error, and a good dose of Sleep Sense, it did the trick. I stopped dreading the alarm clock so much.
Hang clocks in places where they'll be most useful, such as the kitchen or above your desk. They should be easily visible and complement the design of the space. Large wall clocks are ideal for over a fireplace, above an entry table or showcased in an art niche. Smaller wall clocks can be added to your kitchen, home office or child's bedroom to help keep your day on track.
You can choose from an analog styled clock to a digital one. Our alarm clocks can vary from old, retro, 1950 styled clocks to modern 2013. Depending on your desire, we have wind up alarm clocks, clocks that do or do not tick, or clocks with or without a built in radio. We have clocks for children, clocks that run on battery, or ones that plug directly into an outlet.
There's nothing like seeing the time blasted on the wall in sharp red LED display. It gives you the perfect sense of, "Oh crap, I'm going to be late."

Wall clocks are available in a wide array of colors to fit any decor style. Classic black and white, silver or antique metal, and natural, brown, or dark wood choices have timeless appeal. Fun colors like red or turquoise are also available. Most clocks feature a high-contrast face with a white background and black numbers or roman numerals to make seeing the time easier.

A: This is difficult because it works differently for everyone involved. If you're just not able to wake up properly, then you're probably what most of us are: tired from the constant stress of life and trying to sleep it off to a healthy level. It's exhausting, all of life. Waking up faster and feeling fuller right when you hit the ground is a must, and it's difficult. Here's what to do:
The ancient Greek philosopher Plato (428–348 BC) was said to possess a large water clock with an unspecified alarm signal similar to the sound of a water organ; he used it at night, possibly for signaling the beginning of his lectures at dawn (Athenaeus 4.174c).[2] The Hellenistic engineer and inventor Ctesibius (fl. 285–222 BC) fitted his clepsydras with dial and pointer for indicating the time, and added elaborate "alarm systems, which could be made to drop pebbles on a gong, or blow trumpets (by forcing bell-jars down into water and taking the compressed air through a beating reed) at pre-set times" (Vitruv 11.11).[3]
Offer up eye-popping appeal on your walls with this absolutely striking wall clock, the perfect finishing touch to your factory-inspired ensemble. Fashioned from welded steel and featuring a deep black finish, this understated and chic clock lends a touch of simple style to your look, while its 45" diameter ensures it will make a big impact wherever you decide to hang it. Hang it up over trellis-print wallpaper in the living room to let the patterns show through this clock's openwork design, or...
Most digital clocks use electronic mechanisms and LCD, LED, or VFD displays; many other display technologies are used as well (cathode ray tubes, nixie tubes, etc.). After a reset, battery change or power failure, these clocks without a backup battery or capacitor either start counting from 12:00, or stay at 12:00, often with blinking digits indicating that the time needs to be set. Some newer clocks will reset themselves based on radio or Internet time servers that are tuned to national atomic clocks. Since the advent of digital clocks in the 1960s, the use of analog clocks has declined significantly.
Bring your master suite into the 21st century with this essential alarm clock, offering both fashion and function for your mornings. Measuring 3.25" square, its curved frame is crafted from plastic and acrylic for a sleek, clean-lined look that's especially suited for contemporary aesthetics. This clock displays the time lit up with an LED light, powered by three AAA batteries. Plus, this piece comes backed by a one-year warranty from the manufacturer.

by John Masefield
RELEASE DATE: April 11, 1947
A fairly limited book, not for Masefield's general public, but useful for comparative studies in literature. Masefield recapitulates the influence, importance of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, based on the 1890 and 1891 editions of his works, issued by his brother some years after his death. Here, in detailed annotations on the contents of the edition in question, are Masefield's conclusions as to Rossetti's contributions, to literature, poetry, etc. An introductory essay describes the Romantic Movement of which the Pre-Raphaelite group were a part. The book as a whole contributes a fresh interpretation to a literary figure and his works.

The Power of Human Connection
The power of human connection is somewhat amazing, today I didn't sit and do work as such, however I gave people time, I reached out, I actually spoke to people that I hadn't spoken to for a long time and I just had a day of connecting. Get from behind your computer screen get out there and get talking, you'll feel 1 million times better and the connections that you make will be far more powerful and rememberable than those made through written text.

Children have been the most vulnerable group within Iraqi society to be afflicted by the devastation caused by ISIS militancy over the past few years.
Several thousands of children in Iraq have been left orphaned after the devastation caused by ISIS in the past few years. Civil society organisations have been left to pick up the pieces and provide support for children who have been left without parents and other family members. Civil society organisations came together in Diyala to mark the occasion of "Orphans' Day" in order to raise awareness about the plight of motherless and fatherless children and to provide an occasion during which they may feel that they are not alone.
The Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs in the Diyala Governorate has established an orphanage to cater for the abandoned children there. Reports state that some children have been prevented from being registered as orphans due to tribal constraints.
There are also demands for the Ministry of Labour to set up an orphanage for girls, who have not yet received the necessary support.
Orphans who have been left behind after losing family members who were living in poverty have been forced to look for ways to earn a livelihood from an exceptionally young age. Many have been left to their own devices and are selling vegetables or whatever they can find on the streets of Diyala.
A number of orphanages have been set up across Iraq to deal with the issue of abandoned children. For example, an orphanage in Dohuk was established with the aim of housing Yazidi children who had nowhere to go after their families were murdered in the ISIS attack on Sinjar in 2014.
In areas where there are no centres or institutions to take in abandoned children, there have been individuals who have provided orphans with shelter and food, for example this woman who took in 22 orphans at once.
Nevertheless, there are still many orphans across Iraq whose needs are still not being attended to.
