As we know from the definition of fluid, it continues to deform under shear stress, but some fluids such as rheopectic, Bingham plastic, and thixotropic do not deform initially under the action of shear stress as in case of solids. Should ...
As correctly stated that Fluid is defined as a substance which continuously deforms under applied shear force. Even though only after exceeding a certain shear stress value rheopectic, thixotropic, and Bingham plastic start undergoing shear deformation, it is to note that after that stress value, thRead more
As correctly stated that Fluid is defined as a substance which continuously deforms under applied shear force. Even though only after exceeding a certain shear stress value rheopectic, thixotropic, and Bingham plastic start undergoing shear deformation, it is to note that after that stress value, these substances also deform continuously until the external shear force is removed. Hence, they can be categorized as fluids.
However, in case of solids under any amount of shear force, they undergo a fixed deformation and do not undergo continuous deformation.

How do you compare navigation systems of the world like GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and specially BeiDou with our NavIC in military applications?
All the 5 are positioning system used for navigation purpose. The different positioning system is originated from different countries. the positioning system you mentioned belongs to different countries and because of that names are different. GPS(GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM) is made by the United StaRead more

What is 30 mins time in case of a septic tank even though it took a detention period of 12-36 hours?
Hi, Let me correct your concept, in septic tank detention period off 24 hours is considered. In this case, the rate of flow of influent= rate of flow of effluent. Septic tank is to be designed in such a way that see wait is retained in the tank for 24 hours and all the biological decomposition in thRead more
Hi,
Let me correct your concept, in septic tank detention period off 24 hours is considered. In this case,
the rate of flow of influent= rate of flow of effluent.
Septic tank is to be designed in such a way that see wait is retained in the tank for 24 hours and all the biological decomposition in the absence of air that is an aerobic bacteria takes place and breaks the soil which living a very small quantity of soil which is commonly called as sludge which settles at the bottom. And the clearwater which out from the tank is known as effluent.
As you asked in question the 30 minutes is regarding the washing time of the tank.
Hope you get clarity.
See lessWhat are digital elevation models in a GIS software? Why we used it in a GIS software? Explain it benefits for the civil engieering and how we used it for survey of sites?
Digital elevation models are digital representations of x, y, and z locations of points on the surface area of a terrain. These locations are acquired either from a GPS receiver, survey instruments, or aerial or satellite stereo photography depending on the spatial accuracy needed. These digital filRead more
Digital elevation models are digital representations of x, y, and z locations of points on the surface area of a terrain. These locations are acquired either from a GPS receiver, survey instruments, or aerial or satellite stereo photography depending on the spatial accuracy needed.
These digital files of x, y, and z locations are used by the algorithms in a GIS software to transform into either three-dimensional surfaces or elevation contours. It is the GIS software that makes use of this “spatial data.” The output of these algorithms are used for further analyses and calculations.
These could be; calculating cut and fill off of the land under study, 3D visualization of a terrain, watershed and viewshed analyses, and many other civil engineering, infrastructure, architectural and even video games, defense and intelligence-related applications and uses.
Hope this helps.
