The file CO2.txt, found on Blackboard with this assignment, contains 50 numbers, which represent the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (parts per million) recorded at Mauna Loa, HI. The data in the file are the CO2 values on May 15th of each year from 1961 through 2010, (with background level CO2 removed). Fit an exponential model. Use the model to predict the CO2 value for May 15, 2015. Print the result to the screen using fprintf. The actual value was 125.1ppm.

The inner and outer surface temperatures of a glass window 5 mm thick are 15 and 5°C. The thermal resist- ance of the glass window due to conduction is Rt,cond = 1.19 × 10−3 K/W. What is the rate of heat loss through a 1 m × 3 m window? What is the thermal conductivity of the glass?

Problem 1: For a city at 42 deg N latitude, 93 deg W longitude, determine the Local Civil Time (CT) for the sunset on May 21 for central standard time.

Your company has been awarded a contract for 5-story addition on top of an existing 10-story hospital tower at a Cancer Center located in one of the most populated areas of Dallas, Texas. The existing hospital building is beyond 100% occupancy. The company was hired under a design-build contract to complete the $220 million project. Wind-load testing will be conducted. The wind-resisting system will be modified to redistribute loads on the mat foundation. High-strength concrete will be utilized for the addition's floors and columns (to reduce the load). The new mechanical level will be relocated from an upper floor to the floor just above the hospital's existing roof level. Glass fiber reinforced concrete cladding matching the original building's precast concrete façade (but at about one-quarter the weight) is specified in the design. The duration of the project is three-year.

Can you guys help me find the mechanical and electrical system hazards in this problem?!

And what would be the control strategies for them.

Which model, exponential failure rate or Weibull failure rate is suitable to capture the wearout
process of a pump bearing? (justify). Using MS Excel and simulated data, estimate the
reliability a pump bearing for every month over 10 years of operations (upload the MS
Excel file on the D2L along with your answer sheet).

Select one major aspect of human physiology in the selected readings for this module that particularly interests you. Analyze and evaluate it, then creatively apply it to aviation safety. Explain both how and why you believe it could negatively impact safety in some aspect of aviation operations that also particularly interests you, such as flight operations, maintenance operations, or air traffic control operations.

Consider the following boiler hazards:

1- High steam pressure in the boiler exceeding design limits

2- High steam temperature in the boiler

3- Low water level in the boiler

4- High water level in the boiler

5- High pressure of hot gases inside the furnace

6- Low pressure of hot gases inside the furnace

7- Flammable and toxic gases build up in flues

8- Explosive gas mixture in the furnace or flues

Consider each of the above hazards separately. For each of the hazards give the following details:

a) Suggest the suitable safety control function

b) Draw a simple block diagram of this control function using manual drawing tools or computer software (do not copy and paste the images, no freehand drawings)

c) Explain the working of the above control function in your own words

d) Explain how the above control function protects against the respective hazard

(Five marks for each hazard. Total marks for practical: 40)
