Consider a small variation δΦ in the velocity potential Φ. Then the resulting variation in the Lagrangian is: Using Leibniz integral rule, this becomes, in case of constant density ρ: The first integral on the right-hand side integrates out to the boundaries, in x and t, of the integration domain and is zero since the ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luke's_variational_principle |
A perfect phonemic orthography has one letter per group of sounds (phoneme), with different letters only where the sounds distinguish words (so "bed" is spelled differently from "bet"). A narrow phonetic transcription represents phones, the sounds humans are capable of producing, many of which will often be grouped tog... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonemic_principle |
The resulting block if ordered for a specific component is known as sawn six sides (SSS). A sawyer mason is similar to a banker mason (see below) in that they work with rough pieces of stone and shape them according to certain standards. The main difference between a sawyer mason and a banker mason is the size of the s... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_structure |
In a series of seminal papers, Jerry Hobbs investigated the interplay of discourse relations and coherence since the late 1970s. His work has been the basis for most subsequent theories and annotation frameworks of discourse relations. He proposed the following relations: occasion (change of state) evaluation (why some... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discourse_relation |
A few years later, in 1674, Anton Van Leeuwenhoek was the first to analyze live cells in his examination of algae. All of this preceded the cell theory which states that all living things are made up of cells and that cells are organisms' functional and structural units. This was ultimately concluded by plant scientist... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_Biology |
Inclusionary zoning allows municipalities to have new affordable housing constructed without taxpayer subsidies. In order to encourage for-profit developers to build projects that include affordable units, cities often allow developers to build more total units (a "density bonus") than their zoning laws currently allow... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusionary_zoning |
The simulation, whose results were featured in the 2007 documentary Titanic's Achilles Heel, partially refuted Long's suspicions by demonstrating that Titanic's expansion joints were strong enough to deal with any and all stresses the ship could reasonably be expected to encounter in service and, during the sinking, ac... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanic_conspiracy_theories |
Reviewing EA App, O'Connor said that "Just like Origin before it, the new EA app is an inconvenience you must accept to play the EA games which require it, and beyond that it is useless." Again the login system was panned: "no matter how many times I tell it to remember my login, it will soon forget and log me out". Th... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_(service) |
Though a solution, Mobile IP in reality shifts the problem entirely to the Care-of address and introduces an IP tunnel, with attendant complexity. Management: the same low-level nature of the IP address encourages multiple addresses or even address ranges to be allocated to single hosts, putting pressure on allocation ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursive_InterNetwork_Architecture |
Male home ranges increase threefold during the breeding season.Female home ranges overlap less than those of males, although localized concentrations, or "population nuclei", tend to form in some areas, where the sex ratio favors females to males by three or four to one at the nucleus core. Genetic studies indicate tha... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_mouse_lemur |
A thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) is a valve that blends hot water with cold water to ensure constant, safe shower and bath outlet temperatures, preventing scalding. The storage of water at high temperature removes one possible breeding ground for Legionella; the use of a thermostat, rather than a static mixing valve, ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_mixing_valve |
I realise an extension won't come cheap and we still have lots of hurdles to overcome but, in my view, what the public wants, the public should get. This is a ringing endorsement from the people who would use the extended Subway. The plans were expected to take twelve years, but never came to fruition. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glasgow_Subway |
