Name Professor Course Date Miami International University Bridge Collapse. The $14.2 million Miami University bridge was initially supposed to be a way for students to safely cross the Tamiami Trail (Nehamas and Viglucci 1). However, a few months ago the bridge collapsed because of a flaw in the design. The FIGG Bridge Group failed to realize how a large amount of stress placed on the strut on the north end could cause the bridge to collapse. According to Nehamas and Viglucci (1), the bridge lacked a central tower meant to support the deck and had the cables intended to suspend the walk-way loosely tighten. It was contrary to the structural design expected for bridge implementing a...

Student’s Name Professor’s Name Course number Date Digital Gates Introduction Boolean functions can be implemented by the use of electronic gates where the power supply is provided. The two voltages 5V and 0V acts are nominal inputs and represent discrete numbers 1 and 0 respectively or HIGH and LOW. Objectives Determine the functions of a truth table using various digital gates. Apparatus Computer installed with Multisim Procedure Multisim software was opened in a pc A Multisim flash panel appeared on the screen. On the panel, we clicked on: Simulate then Instruments followed by logic converters A screen with a logic converter appeared. SN7408- 2 input AND gate was placed in...

Student’s Name Professor’s Name Course Name Date Digital Designer Orientation The experiment was designed on the Digi Designer orientation; the project aimed to build a circuit on the device. Some of the crucial measurement recorded include voltage which was 5.05 VDC. The major elements recorded again include switch setting, a period of the signal, the frequency of signal and duty cycle (Keenan, Fiona, and Sandra 43). Both were recorded during the experiment. From the results, the difference between the signal on channel 1 and channel 2 is the rate of oscillation of the perpendicular which gives the difference in the frequency of the Digi machine. After setting up all the Logic switches to...

Student’s Name Professor’s Name Course Name Date In the lap, six on adders and comparators using the Multism and the BASYS3 board, build a circuit that will add two bytes (p.68). The half adder normally takes two bits inputs which can either be A and B and produces that two-1-bit, sum and carry out sometimes which is called the output. From the principles of double expansion: 0 + 0 = 0 with no convey 0 +1 = 1 with no convey The Binary adder with 8-bit binary/subtracter can be constructed by cascading two 74LS83 included in the 4-bit binary adder in which the carry out of the first IC is connected to help in carrying second IC of a higher order. When drawing a circuit diagram, one...
