Cobalt Based Alloys Relevant Material Here Was Found Alloy
1,192 words
This paper will discuss the key properties of
three categories of implant alloys; stainless
steels, cobalt-based alloys, and titanium-based
alloys, focusing on those properties which make
the implant alloys ideal for skeletal implants. An
additional focus of the paper will be on any
disadvantages possessed by each group of implant
alloys. Wood was probably the first bio implant, a
sturdy, inert, and readily available material in
the older days. But as mankind aged newer
materials were discovered...

Drug Addiction Addictive Drugs
4,264 words
The emphasis is on biological mechanisms
underlying addiction, although some other factors
influencing drug addiction will also be discussed.
The presentation is limited primarily to
psychomotor stimulants (e. g. , amphetamine,
cocaine) and opiates (e. g. , heroin, morphine)
for two reasons. First, considerable knowledge has
been gained during the past 15 years regarding the
neurobiological mechanisms mediating their
addictive properties. Second, these two
pharmacological classes represent the b...

Drug Addiction Negative Reinforcement

... ve drugs. The Addiction Research Center
Inventory, an empirically derived test designed to
measure the subjective effects of addictive drugs,
detects the mood-elevating effects of psychomotor
stimulants and opiates on the same scale (see
Haertzen and Hickey 1987). On the other hand, the
subjective-effects of these two drug classes can
be easily distinguished. This is not surprising
considering that ex-addicts report a preference
for heroin over morphine (Martin and Fraser 1961),
even though ...

Raw Material High Temperature
1,217 words
Introduction First we will start with the
definition of refractories and ceramics.
Refractories and ceramics are non-metallic
materials capable of maintaining physical and
chemical stability at high temperatures.
Refractories in modern practice are usually
ceramic in nature, and are used in a wide variety
of primary, secondary and tertiary industries.
Wherever an industrial process involves heat in
excess of 700 to 800 degrees Fahrenheit (roughly),
one will find refractory material in place, eit...

During World War II, Canada was at war with
Germany and Italy. Canada was fighting to protect
the lifestyle that its citizens had become
accustomed to. The soldiers in WW II gave their
lives for the good of their great nation. Canada
was also facing a major threat in the Pacific. The
threat was the powerful nation of Japan. To that
point in time Japan was the strongest military
force that the world had ever seen. The Japanese
government was strongly influenced by military
leaders who were in fav...

Addison Wesley Fine Particles

1. 1 PRELUDE: The phenomenon of ferromagnetism is
associated only with the solid state of matter;
like iron, nickel, cobalt and some rare earth
metals and their alloys. Thus, up to now, there is
no intrinsic homogeneous fluid having
ferromagnetic properties; although, theories admit
the possibility of ferromagnetism in the liquid
state, and suggest that there is no inherent
reason why they should not exist [ 1 - 3, 5 ].
Ferromagnetism occurs when paramagnetic ions in a
solid lock together in suc...

Electrical Impulses Mental Phenomena
663 words
Human beings have a conception of at least two
different kinds of things that exist in the world,
mental and physical. Any of us could generate a
long list of obvious physical things and clear
cases of psychological things. And we assume that
both of these types of things, mental phenomena
and physical phenomena, are part of our world. But
in order to get a more unified, overall picture of
the world, we need to consider what the connection
is between these two categories. How are the
mental and ...

Valence Electrons Periodic Table
854 words
The periodic table is simply the organization and
classification of different elements. By the end
of the 1700 s, scientists had identified about 30
elements. In less than 100 years, the number of
known element doubled because of new means of
recognizing them. In the early 1800 s, Dobereiner
observed that there were elements that could be
classified into groups of 3, or triads. These
triads were significant because these
classifications of similar elements represented
the very beginning of the p...

The Biological Importance Of Water
1,055 words
Generally, the main biological importance of water
is that life cannot exist without it. In fact on a
percentage basis, the majority of any organism is
comprised of water. Additionally, it is believed
that life first originated in the bodies of water
on the earth. The importance of water is seen in
such third world countries as Kenya. Where the
inhabitants are forced to drink water so dirty and
contaminated that they know it might kill them.
However they still drink it because its essential

Fiber Optics Mode Fiber

Some of Fiber Optics Thesis: Some of the important
features of the fiber optics that we are
interested are discussed below. Now a days we are
using copper wires as they are the most cost
effective and reliable interconnect in parallel
machines. However as machines grow more powerful,
wire density becomes critical making fiber
possible alternatives because of their small wire
size. Fiber optics are used mainly to use
effectively its high bandwidth. On a single fiber

The Properties of Light Applied to Fibre Optics
One of the basic properties of light is that it
travels in straight lines and can have it? s
direction changed. This is the property which is
applied to achieve the purpose of Fibre Optics
which is to carry light from one place to another.
The way this is done can be explained by the
principle of refraction. This is the principle
which governs the behaviour of light as it passes
from one transparent substance to another. It
states; if a ray of ligh...

The Mind-Body Problem: Dualism Versus Dual Aspect
Theory Abstract The mind-body problem, which is
still debated even today, raises the question
about the relationship between the mind and the
body. Theorists, such as Ren? Descartes and Thomas
Nagel, have written extensively on the problem but
they have many dissenting beliefs. Descartes, a
dualist, contends that the mind and body are two
different substances that can exist separately.
Conversely,...

Carbon Atom Molecular Formula

3. 2 Lots of carbon compounds seem to be isomers.
What is an isomer? In organic chemistry, there are
many examples of different compounds which have
the same molecular formula as each other, but
different arrangements of the atoms in their
molecules, (different structural formulae). These
compounds are said to be isomers of one another.
Isomerism also occurs in inorganic chemistry, but
it is less common. There are two types of
isomerism common in organic chemistry: structural
isomerism and stere...

Mind And Body Solve The Problem

The Never-ending Question: Are We a Mind, a Body
or Both? Of all the topics that are currently
occupying the attention of philosophers, the
Mind-Body problem is at center stage. It is one of
the classical metaphysical issues concerning the
relationship between that which is mental and that
which is physical. The simple question asked is:
what are we? Are we a mind, a body or both? The
issue has its origins in the ancient dualism of
Plato and since then many solutions to the problem
have been off...

Cast Iron Common Place

I-How Does Gears Work? You see gears in just about
everything that has spinning parts. For example,
car engines and transmissions contain lots of
gears. Gears are generally used for one of four
different reasons: 1 - To reverse the direction of
rotation. 2 - To increase or decrease the speed of
rotation. 3 - To move rotational motions to a
different axis. 4 - keep the rotation of two axis
synchronized. Most of the gears you see in real
life have teeth. The teeth have three advantages:
1 - They p...

Nuclear Power Plant Nuclear Fission
1,742 words
Nuclear energy-This is energy that binds together
components of an atomic nucleus. This is made by
the process of nuclear fission. Nuclear fission is
produced when an atomic atom is split. The way
nuclear pore is made is in a nuclear reactor, this
is most likely located in a nuclear power plant.
the fission that is produced is when a heavy
element splits in half or is halved into two
smaller nuclei, the power of the fission is
located by the rate of the splitting of the nuclei
at once which caus...
