we have a laminar flow which is flowing above a plate. Is it possible that a laminar flow can have the turbulant boundary layer. If it is so then what will happen to the upstream flow. Will it become turbulant or will remain laminar?

Jay Cutler: Do Mechanics Really Matter?
2010-12-31 03:13:00
Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images It should be no secret that many so called "football analysts" have consistently questioned and, in some cases, flat-out ripped Jay Cutler's mechanics. From his throwing technique to his footwork, Cutler does, at times, look to rely on his athleticism to make up for his lack of "perfect mechanics." The idea being that if Cutler simply worked harder to refine these issues, it just might be what elevates him from good to great. While all of that seems to make sense on the surface, if he's winning football games, does it really matter that much?...
Too bad CTA doesn't have 3,000 escalator mechanics like Moscow
2010-12-20 14:00:00
A recent Washington Post story about escalators in the Moscow subway system reported that there are 643 escalators that a serviced by a staff of 3,000 mechanics. They leap into action anytime there's a breakdown. It took the CTA several months to repair and rehab nine escalators in the Red and Blue Line subways. That just wouldn't cut it in Moscow.In Moscow, there's even a crew of escalator "watchers" who sit in glass booths to keep things moving. I know we could use way more escalators on the CTA in Chicago. Check out this video of a long Moscow escalator. (Hat tip to Steven.)...
The Mechanics of a Callup
2010-10-25 02:27:00
Matty's back! Friday was game day for the Capitals’ AHL affiliate, the Hershey Bears, but by noon, center Mathieu Perreault got the call saying he’d be going to D.C. instead to be part of the Capitals’ NHL roster Saturday night.  Perreault is a self-styled “energy player,” and the type of player who could help the banged-up, production-starved Capitals snap a two-game losing streak that saw only two total goals on offense. After Perreault gets off the phone bearing the good news with Bears’ General Manager Doug Yingst Friday there was one more call that needed to be made immediately: the call to his parents back in Quebec, letting them know he was back playing on an NHL roster.  Perreault spent 21 games with the Capitals last season, but after a strong 2010 training camp and preseason, he was sent back to Hershey to start the regular season there. Suffice to say: the phone call home Friday was one Perreault savored. Perreault’s next stop Frid...

Mechanics of Materials
2009-09-21 02:43:00
Applications of the principles of mechanics of materials have increased considerably over the last 25 years. Today's routine industrial practices and techniques were only esoteric research topics just a few years ago. That research is now relevant to such diverse but commonplace applications as electronic packaging, medical implantation, geology (seismic prediction), and engineered wood products. It is in this rapidly changing world that Madhukar Vable's Mechanics of Materials takes its place as a standard text for civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering majors, as well as for any other engineering discipline that includes mechanics of materials as a basic course.

His Elective Majesty, Mayor Richard M. Daley, of Ithaka Chicago  --Alfred, Lord TennysonIt little profits that an idle Mayor, by this over-priced park, among these barren potholes, match'd with a rubber stamp Council, I mete and dole unequal laws unto a savage race that hoard and sleep and feed and know not me....so, in other words, the Tribune reported that Mayor Daley has the lowest approval rating of his career. He blames it on the economy. I blame it on his not doing things that earn people's approval.Meanwhile, the City Council--unbelievably, given the above, which anybody could have explained to them if they listened to anybody--unanimously voted to give the Mayor a blank check for the Olympics, with some minor transparency...
Mechanics of a Horse Kick ? My Story (Part 3)

Oh, it's good to be a Chicagoan. And Chicago got a little larger this week with the birth of Sofia Flores, daughter of Alderman Manny Flores (1st). Congratulations, Alderman.The Alliance for the Great Lakes announces its new campaign to raise awareness about the continued threats to our greatest natural resource. When the water wars start, we're going to be happy we live close to all this fresh water, people.Though he initially strongly supported the bill--calling it landmark--Governor Quinn this week vetoed a campaign finance reform bill that would have instituted Illinois' first ever contribution limits. Democratic leadership in the House and Senate provided him cover, saying they wanted the chance to make the bill stronger.The Civic Federation this week released...

Good Monday morning, Chicago. It's been a long, rough year for Chicago politics so far. The fight over the Olympics, privatization, the special election, the schools poor performance and draconian turnarounds, the state budget. I know sometimes it seemed like you were alone; but just know, when you look back and see only one set of footprints, it was Gapers Block's Mechanics that carried you.The IVI-IPO has filed a lawsuit against the city of Chicago over the privatization of the parking meters, arguing that the deal essentially violates state law despite Chicago's broad home-rule authority.

Good morning Chicago. So starts the work week. Here's just some of the things that went down this week, in your name:We ask: just why is government transparency important? Why should we care about the Freedom of Information Act legislation that Governor Quinn still hasn't signed? And just how is the city doing on TIF transparency?Speaking of transparency, the Chicago Reader's Mick Dumke explores the continuing lack of it around the Parking Meter Privatization debacle.Oh, speaking of transparency again, Tribune columnist David Griesing says that the Chicago Olympic Bid Committee should open its record for inspection.And speaking of the Olympics (don't know how long I'm going to be able to keep up these segues) Ben Joravsky (and Steve Rhodes) call...
The Mechanics: Cash for Something or other, Hynes v. Quinn, Alexi & Sea

 Comptroller Dan Hynes, who many of you will know primarily from the name on your checks (state workers, state contractors), from that time you had to double check that Illinois had a comptroller, since you always assumed the Treasurer would probably just do that job (social studies teachers), or from the 2004 Democratic Primaries (the rest of you), made his race for Governor double super official. Hynes is a well respected public official; now he and Pat Quinn prepared for battle.**In this instance, "battle" means "arguing about state finances via surrogates and grainy TV commercials; also websites.

Mac Trounces PC in Pop Mechanics Head-to-Head
2008-04-16 17:21:00
A PC-versus-Mac shootout by Popular Mechanics scores the Mac way ahead in both price and performance. PopMech compared desktops and laptops, and not only did the Macs run rings around their Windows counterparts, they were cheaper to boot. The conclusion: Our biggest surprise, however, was that PCs were not the relative bargains we expected them to be. The Asus M51sr costs the same as a MacBook, while the Gateway One actually costs $300 more than an iMac. That means for the price of the Gateway you could buy an iMac, boost its hard drive to match the Gateway’s, purchase a copy of Vista to boot—and still save $100. My, how times have changed. A few years ago, the conventional wisdom was the opposite: PCs were cheaper and faster. Somehow though, I don’t think conventional wisdom will change. Macs will always be regarded as premium computers — thanks to their fab design and quality fit and finish — even if that’s not actually true.
