Background of the study

The content of alcohol in the blood stream popularly known as the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is the main source of evidence that the police present to the courts to decide if or not an individual has been driving while drunk. The BAC level is tested by the use of an ‘alco-blow’ device known as a breathalyzer, blood and urine tests conducted in clinical facilities. High amounts of alcohol in the blood system may affect proper driving as drunken persons seem to be oblivious of the danger that they expose themselves and other road users by driving under alcohol influence. ...

Introduction.

A combustion engine can be defined as any engine that operates through fuel burning. The difference between a combustion engine and steam engine is that the latter uses steam for operation while the former uses gasoline. Combustion engines also use fueled gases such as hydrogen, propane, methane etc which are components of diesel. Combustion engines run on one type of fuel, and may require a series of adaptation to adjust to fuel/air ratio to use other forms of energy (Agrawal, 2006).
The combustion process starts in the gasoline cylinder where a mixture of air and gasoline is sprayed. The mixture is ...

Why is movement important for heritage planning for living historic cities?

The importance of space and movement in cities is well recognized in many disciplines including sociology (Goffman, 1963, 1972; Lefebvre, 1991), geography (Christaller, 1933; Ullman, 1954; Weber, 1921) architecture and urban studies (Jacobs, 1961; Hillier, 1996). For example, in his urban sociological studies, Goffman (1972) looked at movement or flow to uncover the meaning of social interaction and cultural production in a general sense. He referred to mobility as an aspect of urbanity in a number of examples and empirical discussions. Goffman also developed a rich vocabulary for describing mobility in urban life impacting the way we think about self and other, ...
