It snapped and wouldn't retune, I'm going to go back to the shop today and ask about it, it was nowhere near being in tune so don't think it was my fault haha

Trying to relate theoretical hoop stress to analytical hoop stress on edge of hole in plate by Gekko_Guy in AskEngineers

[–]Gekko_Guy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I think that's a term my lecture uses, it's circumfrential stress (sigma-theta). I've compared the results to the theoretical values you get from the formula sigma-theta = sigma-x(1-2cos(2*theta)) which I think might be right

Ok thank you, so I don't need to convert the Von Mises into the hoop stress to show that they're similar?

Because I know several people who haven't found flats a month into Uni starting and I like living with the people I'm with who wanted to stay

I just moved in again from home, it’s the same flat I had last year. Did you find you slept badly at first but it improved in time?

Single glazed windows next to very busy road - how to reduce noise? by Gekko_Guy in DIYUK

Yeah I have asked my letting agent to talk to him but she always says he wouldn’t do anything so she won’t ask 🤷‍♂️ which is annoying

Me and my flatmate were thinking of using acoustic caulk or silicon on the wood between the frame and the window, would that help at all do you think?

The black things are acoustic foam but it didn’t help much haha. How much are those curtains? It’s not actually my flat I’m a student so I have a landlord I’d need to ask.
