In the article “Influence of Crack Width on Shear Behaviour of SIFCON” (C. Fritz and H. Reinhardt, High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cement Composites: Proceedings of the International RILEM/ACI Workshop, 1992), the maximum shear stress τ of a cracked concrete member is given to be τ = τ0(1 − kw), where τ0 is the maximum shear stress for a crack width of zero, w is the crack width in mm, and k is a constant estimated from experimental data. Assume k = 0.29 ± 0.05 mm−1. Given that τ0 = 50 MPa and w = 1.0 mm, both with negligible uncertainty, estimate τ and find the uncertainty in the estimate.
The article “Mechanistic-Empirical Design of Bituminous Roads: An Indian Perspective” (A. Das and B. Pandey, Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1999:463–471) presents an equation of the form y = a(1/x1)b(1/x2)c for predicting the number of repetitions for laboratory fatigue failure (y) in terms of the tensile strain at the bottom of the bituminous beam (x1) and the resilient modulus (x2). Transform this equation into a linear model, and express the linear model coefficients in terms of a, b, and c.

- To investigate the fluid mechanics of swimming, twenty swimmers each swam a specified distance in a water-filled pool and in a pool where the water was thickened with food grade guar gum to create a syrup-like consistency. Velocity, in meters per second, was recorded and the results are given in a table below. The researchers concluded that swimming in guar syrup does not change swimming speed. (Use a statistical computer package to calculate the P-value. Use ?d = ?water − ?guar syrup. Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to three decimal places.)
