GOT dead army pull dragon from lake but physics laws must be respected! Cables work in tension only and can't carry comp/shear forces or bending moments. If you’re pulling a cable and not applying other loads, it will remain straight (ignoring self-weight). #StudyAtUL

Research published on the analysis of submissions on an Active Travel Scheme in Limerick. Takeaways: Twice as many +ve submissions than -ve, access concerns from residents & advocates for the elderly and safer facility should support more active travel. systems.enpress-publisher.com/index.php/jipd…

Engineering is the creative application of maths & science to design and build things. Not only do civil @EngineeringAtUL students learn about analysis & design, they learn a lot about building, esp in relation to the construction sequence, assembly and stability. #StudyAtUL
