The example of automobile, aircraft and fashion industries could help to understand the differences between the channels.

Big aircraft industry has very few players both on the supply and the demand sides. Therefore, the most effective way to organize distribution is ...

One security weakness at Aircraft Solutions is with regards to their software and its corresponding policy. In particular, the case study states that customer data such as development models, computer-aided designs, and project information are stored in designated servers. Since the case study did not indicate any software that would serve as the repository, it can be assumed that the files are just saved and stored as they are in directories or folders within the servers. They are not saved in document management systems or versioning systems that will keep track of every version of the files that are ...

The glider designs of George Cayley and Otto Lilienthal were a far cry from the technological sophistication of space flight, and 19th-century designs established basic principles still present in the design of the space shuttle. Mechanization, which started with the Wright brothers, powered flight, giving substance to the age-old human dream of manned flight. War and the onset of commercial flight produced massive improvements in aeronautical design and logistical advances. In the modern era, the very concept of flight has taken mankind into space and inspired plans for manned space travel.

The Arc of Progress: Flight and the Evolution of Aeronautical Technology

In 1810, British inventor George Cayley published a paper that ...

Pros and Cons of the Notwithstanding Clause

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms contains the notwithstanding clause. This clause has been a major talking point in Canadian politics. This is because the notwithstanding clause gives power to the provincial legislatures or the parliament to override certain portions of the rest of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Morton (2002) notes that this clause is also controversial in any instances such that there is a valid argument against its application when used and, on the other hand, its use seems unavoidable. This paper discusses the pros and cons of using this clause.

A turbulent jet is a source of energy and momentum in a fluid tank. A jet is considered fully turbulent at a jet laminar for Rej below about 100 and Reynolds number Rej above about 1’000 – 2’000. Therefore, the limit between a turbulent jet and laminar is around the Reynolds number of 3’000 and the significant characteristics of the jet are its discharge and momentum flux.

Eq. 2; Qj = vjAj – jet volume flux Rej = vjdjv = jet Reynolds number Frj = vj√g'dj = densimetric jet Froude number
