Richard Hammond checks out the world's tallest and most distinctively shaped hotel, the 320-metre-high Burj Al Arab, or Arabian Tower. Rising from its own custom-built island, 300 metres off-shore, the sail-shaped building has already become one of the world's most recognisable buildings, and an icon for Dubai.

Myself as a teacher I am always being raised with a question "Why are we studying this topic and in which way it can be applicable?" The answer to this topic is " Education is applicable everywhere in our day to day life " The great example of this is "BURJ AL ARAB HOTEL" which depicts how tidal waves ,friction and air pressure can be managed by studying and experimenting and how this hotel was constructed . This video can be used to show the students and make the explanation interesting and for better understanding.

I just wish the "water tap" analogy was used to further demonstrate how capacitors can "smooth" electrical signals. A tap being turned fully on and off rapidly - but filling a bucket with a small hole at the bottom would be a prime example for a student. The water slowly and steadily leaking from the bottom of the bucket would be in stark contrast to the frantic tap water.

ADAM (PBUH), THE FIRST MAN ON EARTH, LIVED 5,800 YEARS AGO As per the genealogy of Jesus Christ given in the Bible, from Jesus through Abraham (pbuh) to the first man on earth i.e. Adam (pbuh), Adam appeared on the earth approximately 5800 years ago: 1948 years between Adam (pbuh) and Abraham (pbuh) Approximately 1800 years between Abraham (pbuh) and Jesus (pbuh) 2000 years from Jesus (pbuh) till today These figures are further confused by the fact that the Jewish calendar is currently on or about 5800 years old. There is sufficient evidence from archaeological and anthropological sources to suggest that the first human being on earth was present tens of thousands of years ago and not merely 5,800 years ago as is suggested by the Bible. The Qur’an too speaks about Adam (pbuh) as the first man on earth but it does not suggest any date or period of his life on earth, unlike the Bible - what the Bible says in this regard is totally incompatible with science. 12. NOAH (PBUH) AND THE FLOOD The Biblical description of the flood in Genesis chapter 6, 7 and 8 indicates that the deluge was universal and it destroyed every living thing on earth, except those present with Noah (pbuh) in the ark. The description suggests that the event took place 1656 years after the creation of Adam (pbuh) or 292 years before the birth of Abraham, at a time when Noah (pbuh) was 600 years old. Thus the flood may have occurred in the 21st or 22nd Century B.C. This story of the flood, as given in the Bible, contradicts scientific evidence from archaelogical sources which indicate that the eleventh dynasty in Egypt and the third dynasty in Babylonia were in existence without any break in civilisation and in a manner totally unaffected by any major calamity which may have occurred in the 21st century B.C. This contradicts the Biblical story that the whole world had been immersed in the flood water. In contrast to this, the Qur’anic presentation of the story of Noah and the flood does not conflict with scientific evidence or archaeological data; firstly, the Qur’an does not indicate any specific date or year of the occurance of that event, and secondly, according to the Qur’an the flood was not a universal phenomenon which destroyed complete life on earth. In fact the Qur’an specifically mentions that the flood was a localised event only involving the people of Noah. It is illogical to assume that Prophet Muhummad (pbuh) had borrowed the story of the flood from the Bible and corrected the mistakes before mentioning it in the Qur’an. 13. MOSES (PBUH) AND PHARAOH OF THE EXODUS The story of Moses (pbuh) and the Pharaoh of the Exodus are very much identical in the Qur’an and the Bible. Both scriptures agree that the Pharaoh drowned when he tried to pursue Moses (pbuh) and led the Israelites across a stretch of water that they crossed. The Qur’an gives an additional piece of information in Surah Yunus chapter 10 verse 92: "This day shall We save thee in thy body, that thou mayest be a sign to those who come after thee! But verily, many among mankind are heedless of Our Signs!" [Al-Qur’an 10:92] Dr. Maurice Bucaille, after a thorough research proved that although Rameses II was known to have persecuted the Israelites as per the Bible, he actually died while Moses (pbuh) was taking refuge in Median. Rameses II’s son Merneptah who succeeded him as Pharaoh drowned during the exodus. In 1898, the mummified body of Merneptah was found in the valley of Kings in Egypt. In 1975, Dr. Maurice Bucaille with other doctors received permission to examine the Mummy of Merneptah, the findings of which proved that Merneptah probably died from drowning or a violent shock which immediately preceeded the moment of drowning. Thus the Qur’anic verse that we shall save his body as a sign, has been fulfilled by the Pharaohs’ body being kept at the Royal Mummies room in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. This verse of the Qur’an compelled Dr. Maurice Bucaille, who was a Christian then, to study the Qur’an. He later wrote a book ‘The Bible, the Qur’an and Science’, and confessed that the author of the Qur’an can be no one else besides God Himself. Thus he embraced Islam. 14. QUR’AN IS A BOOK FROM ALLAH These evidences are sufficient to conclude that the Qur’an was not copied from the Bible, but that the Qur’an is the Furqaan - ‘the Criteria’ to judge right from wrong and it should be used to decipher which portion of the Bible may be considered as the Word of God. The Qur’an itself testifies in Surah Sajda chapter 32 verse 1 to 3 Alif Laam Meem. (This is) the revelation of the Book in which there is no doubt - from the Lord of the Worlds. Or do they say, ‘He has forged it’? Nay, it is the Truth from thy Lord, that thou mayest admonish a people to whom no warner has come before thee: in order that they may receive guidance." [Al-Qur’an 32:1-3]

The high quality dimmers used in such exotic places are not just some cheap converter systems. They are ac-dc-ac converter systems with very good control schemes for eg: one cycle control, and tight regulated voltages. Such better control schema also reduces the transient voltages and currents across the power electronic switches thereby reducing capacity of passive filters

Geotechnical with skin friction of sand as well as with the holes on the side for the waves. Hydrology, water resources and hydraulics with the fountain.

@vanbeet5105 4 жыл бұрын
@Syed Shuvo When you google burj al arab or any other famous building, you'll see the name of the architect because people only see the exterior and external appearance of a structure; if they had witnessed the construction process first hand, they'd realize that the architect did just 10℅ of the work. You won't find the engineer's name on a building because engineering is a science, not an art like architecture. Architecture is about drawing and conceptualization of a structure, eg how tall it will be, how many rooms it will have , exterior facade etc. Architects don't do structural design ( i don't know where you got that), structural engineers do. Structural design is about designing members that will safely carry the structure and all its loads, throughout its design life. It's science and math, not about personal recognition

@Syed Shuvo Your long reply just proves my point more; architecture is more abstract, more artistic and more fantasy oriented. Engineering is cold hard science; engineers don't care about how a building looks, feels etc, it's about the application of scientific and mathematical principles to enable the actualization of architectural conceptions. Architecture and civil engineering are two distinct sides of the same coin; very different yet interdependent. You should also know that civil engineering is very wide and is not only about buildings: it involves roads, railways, bridges, aqueducts, pipelines, fluid mechanics, foundation engineering among many others, all of which make our lives better every day

There are 3 ways to dim lights - Auto transformers ie variacs, phase cutting & filters and AC frequency change. I guess filtering was the cheapest method, and required only 1 run of wires. With that kind of 4 buttons i think that the whole building has 4 giant transformers each with a different voltage level ie 230 190 150 110V or something each coresponding to a different 'mood' but that would require a 'signal' cable to switch voltage level to the room.

Don't knock crooked towers lol, there is that one in Piza don't you know ;~) I also can't believe how long ago these were made. I think they need to double up on their experts in these demonstration lol, they could have done with a fire guy at the electrical shed demo. It might have saved the "expert" from having to rescue his equipment lol, did you see him scurrying around like "omg is this melting?" :~)

@@13minutestomidnight if u notice closely, ull realise that the private island means its still standing on sand like every other building in dubai and not hovering in the air or smth.
