This chapter provides a brief overview of mathematical modeling in mechanics. Special attention is devoted to contrasting discrete approaches with continuum approaches, both of which play an important and unique role in the modern mechanics-of-materials landscape. Discrete models underpin state-of-the-...
The primary benefit of this kind of community is called a continuum of care, and it's designed so you can likely stay in the same place with the same people even if your health changes down the road. No more worrying about having to relocate to a senior living community that provides a...
if feminism has taught me anything, it is not to stop with the obvious. To take this up from a critical point of view surely calls for asking whose interests it serves to police this line between the real and the “unreal” where “who is a woman” is concerned. Hold onto that though...
I suggest the operative word is a“continuum.”Some things are more alive than others. The “alive-or-dead” debate about viruses demonstrates the difficulty. He has done a great job of exploring material explanations of thought, perception, self-representation and behavioural control, but none...
I do, however, think that in the case of sexuality, which is a continuum, it can be an issue. I also think that there are a lot of societal pressures on men to “man up” that result in a fear of being labeled homosexual that can create homophobic thoughts and actions as a defense...
We also get a continuum spectrum from a hot solid, so for example the light produced by incandescent light bulbs is a continuum spectrum. These kinds of bulbs give off light by a very thin coil of metal, the filament, (usually tungsten) getting extremely hot from having an electric current...
The International Baccalaureate is a continuum of educational programmes for students aged 3 to 19. For each of the six chosen subjects, students receive a grade of between 1 and 7, with 7 being the highest. The Theory of Knowledge and Extended Essay can collectively contribute another three po...
Really, hypnotic trance is a continuum. We can be really deeply hypnotized, or we can be in such a mild everyday trance that we wouldn't dream (no pun intended!) of calling it hypnotic. But for the skilled hypnotherapist, any level of trance can be harnessed to produce positive outcomes...
typically 0.3 mrad (1 mrad ≈ 0.06 degrees) in the vertical plane. However since the electron bunches are circulating horizontally there is a continuum of such fans spread out over an arc (see below) so that the final fan is wider horizontally (typically degrees) than vertically as illustrated...
Digging deeper into this subject reveals the idea of different sizes of infinity like ℵ0 (aleph-null), ℵ1 (aleph-one) and the Continuum.Read Countable Sets to discover more.ConclusionInfinity is a simple idea: "endless". Most things we know have an end, but infinity does not....
