VELOCITY DISTRIBUTION IN OPEN CHANNEL
The measured velocity in an open channel will always vary across the channel section because of friction along the boundary. Neither is this velocity distribution usually axisymmetric (as it is in pipe flow) due to the existence of the free surface. It might be expected to find the maximum velocity at the free surface where the shear force is zero but this is not the case. The maximum velocity is usually found just below the surface. The explanation for this is the presence of secondary currents which are circulating from the boundaries towards the section centre and resistance at the air/water interface. These have been found in both laboratory measurements and 3d numerical simulation of turbulence.
The figure below shows some typical velocity...

How to open MS Office 2007 file in Ms Office 2003
Hello World!!
Well you may experience with a problem of opening Ms Office 2007 files [.docx, .xlsx,etc] in Ms Office 2003. This happens due to the compatibility difference between these two versions. It is obvious that difference is must between old and new versions. We can fix all these errors by adding the compatibility pack to the Ms Office 2003 which helps to run in low RAM too.
Download this Compatibility Pack from below servers:

Anna Hazare Jan lokpal bill – Theme song
The Jan Lokpal Bill (Hindi: जन लोकपाल विधेयक), also referred to as the Citizen’s Ombudsman Bill, is a proposed anti-corruption law in India. It was proposed by prominent civil society activists as a more effective improvement to the original Lokpal bill, which is currently being proposed by the the Government of India. The prefix Jan was added to signify the fact that these improvements include input provided by “ordinary citizens” through an activist-driven, non-governmental public consultation.
Drafted by Justice Santosh Hegde (former Supreme Court Judge and former Lokayukta of Karnataka), Prashant Bhushan (Supreme Court Lawyer) and Arvind Kejriwal (RTI activist), the draft Bill to regard a system where a corrupted person found...

Non-destructive methods for testing Concrete
The standard method of evaluating the quality of concrete in buildings or structures is to test specimens cast simultaneously for compressive, flexural and tensile strengths. The main disadvantages are that results are not obtained immediately; that concrete in specimens may differ from that in the actual structure as a result of different curing and compaction conditions; and that strength properties of a concrete specimen depend on its size and shape.
Although there can be no direct measurement of the strength properties of structural concrete for the simple reason that strength determination involves destructive stresses, several non- destructive methods of assessment have been developed. These depend on the fact that certain...

Averting Bridge Disasters: New Technology Could Save Hundreds of Lives
Millions of U.S. drivers cross faulty or obsolete bridges every day, highway statistics show, but it's too costly to fix all these spans or adequately monitor their safety, says a University of Maryland researcher who's developed a new, affordable early warning system.
This wireless technology could avert the kind of bridge collapse that killed 13 and injured 145 along Minneapolis' I-35W on Aug. 1, 2007.
"Potentially hundreds of lives could be saved," says University of Maryland electrical engineering researcher Mehdi Kalantari. "One of every four U.S. highway...

How to prepare for GATE ?
GATE preparing can be easy as preparing for your University Exams. The main thing is you should start early with a quality books [i mean with good subject] and guidance. The main thing is you must remember that GATE paper focus on your in depth knowledge of subject, your basics, presence of mind during examination etc.
Following are the recommendations while preparing for your GATE exams:
The questions are generally derivations of the fundamentals. First get your fundamentals right, and then test yourself on those fundamentals. When you have done this, you should pit yourself...
Types of Admixtures for Concrete
Admixtures
Admixtures are ingredients other than aggregates, water, fibers, and hydraulic cement that are added to the concrete batch immediately before or during mixing. A proper use of admixtures offers some particular beneficial effects to concrete, improved quality, acceleration or retardation of setting time, increases frost and sulfate resistance, control of strength development, and improved workability.
Calcium chloride (CaCl_2) Calcium chloride is generally used in cold weather to accelerate the setting time and produces...
