Download or read book Paper Modelling Yesterday s Classics written by Mildred Swannell and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to a handicraft for young children that strengthens skills of paper folding, paper cutting and pasting, and ruler drawing while constructing models from paper. Plans for 44 models are included in the book, some simpler and others more complex. The first ten models start with a square piece of paper to form simple objects such as a box and a basket, or more complex ones such as a cart or a barn. Next come 23 models that begin as oblongs, and a final 11 from various irregular shapes. Detailed instructions accompany the plans. Rather than a series of projects to be worked through from beginning to end, consider starting with projects with a few simple pieces and few instructions, and then, as skills increase, choosing projects that match your skill level and catch your fancy. This edition differs from the original in having each model on its own page or pagespread, with instructions for each component placed as closely as possible to its graphic representation. The dimensions on the plans match the dimensions in the instructions and are sized to be easily readable. The components in each plan are represented as large as possible on the page, while still in proportion to each other, so the dimensions on the plans will seldom match the measurements on your ruler.

Download or read book Antique and Classic Model Planes written by Dr. Heinrich Eder and published by Verlag für Technik und Handwerk. This book was released on with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antique and classic models are not "antiques", but replicas that are intended to remind us of the early, golden days of model aviation. The antique modelling scene has gained a lot of popularity over the last few years: Many model aviation enthusiasts no longer want to follow the path of ever larger models with their high-tech equipment. The rounded forms of the antique and classic models stand out from the modern technologically determined standard forms – and amaze younger people. The smell of fuel and varnish inspires some older model pilots and brings back forgotten memories of their youth. In addition to an introduction to antique and classic aeromodelling and a broad theoretical and practical knowledge, the book contains an extensive and impressive as well as illustrated collection of over 100 antique model portraits, which were taken at antique model meetings in Germany and nearby foreign countries. The author, Dr Heinrich Eder, has been active in the model aviation scene for almost seventy years. In the book, he gives an overview of building materials, stringing methods, and the design of the "antiques" – spanning from the past to the present. In addition, Eder addresses topics such as aerodynamics and the profile problems of vintage models as well as the typical drives from the compressed air engine to the carburettor diesel and gives important tips on installation. From the content: • Introduction to Antique and Classic Model Flying • Drives of antique models • Construction techniques and plans • Aerodynamics of antique models • Flight stability of antique models • Flight practice • Over 100 illustrated model portraits • Improvement and upgrade of various printer models

Download or read book Perspectives on Interrogative Models of Inquiry written by Can Başkent and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-07 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the two major elements of Hintikka’s model of inquiry: underlying game theoretical motivations and the central role of questioning. The chapters build on the Hintikkan tradition extending Hintikka’s model and present a wide variety of approaches to the philosophy of inquiry from different directions, ranging from erotetic logic to Lakatosian philosophy, from socio-epistemologic approaches to strategic reasoning and mathematical practice. Hintikka's theory of inquiry is a well-known example of a dynamic epistemic procedure. In an interrogative inquiry, the inquirer is given a theory and a question. He then tries to answer the question based on the theory by posing questions to nature or an oracle. The initial formulation of this procedure by Hintikka is rather broad and informal. This volume introduces a carefully selected responses to the issues discussed by Hintikka. The articles in the volume were contributed by various authors associated with a research project on Hintikka's interrogative theory of inquiry conducted in the Institut d’Histoire et de Philosophie des Sciences et des Techniques (IHPST) of Paris, including those who visited to share their insight.

Download or read book Speculative Attacks Forward Market Intervention and the Classic Bear Squeeze written by Mr.Subir Lall and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1997-12-01 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A typical strategy used by speculators to launch an attack on a fixed exchange regime is the use of forward markets. Central banks also intervene in forward markets to counter speculation. This paper addresses the question of how an attack is launched on the forward market, and what the optimal policy response to such speculation is in the forward and spot markets. The paper also demonstrates how central banks can impose a bear squeeze on speculators. Recent events in South East Asian currency markets are interpreted within the framework of the model’s predictions.
Download or read book Interactions of Classical and Numerical Algebraic Geometry written by Daniel James Bates and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2009-09-16 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of the conference on Interactions of Classical and Numerical Algebraic Geometry, held May 22-24, 2008, at the University of Notre Dame, in honor of the achievements of Professor Andrew J. Sommese. While classical algebraic geometry has been studied for hundreds of years, numerical algebraic geometry has only recently been developed. Due in large part to the work of Andrew Sommese and his collaborators, the intersection of these two fields is now ripe for rapid advancement. The primary goal of both the conference and this volume is to foster the interaction between researchers interested in classical algebraic geometry and those interested in numerical methods. The topics in this book include (but are not limited to) various new results in complex algebraic geometry, a primer on Seshadri constants, analyses and presentations of existing and novel numerical homotopy methods for solving polynomial systems, a numerical method for computing the dimensions of the cohomology of twists of ideal sheaves, and the application of algebraic methods in kinematics and phylogenetics.

Download or read book Stellar Atmospheres Beyond Classical Models written by L. Crivellari and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of stellar atmospheres is one of the most important branches of modern astrophysics. It is first of all a major tool for understanding all aspects of stars. As the physical properties of their outer layers can now be found with high precision, firm conclusions can be drawn about the internal structure and evolution of stars. Moreover, improvements in our knowledge of the chemical composition of stars is shedding new light on the chemical evolution of galaxies and of the Universe as a whole. Because the outer layers of stars are among the best-understood astrophysical objects, the theory of stellar atmospheres plays an important role in the study of many other types of objects. These include planetary nebulae, H II regions, interstellar matter, and objects of interest in high-energy astrophysics, such as accretion disks (close binaries, dwarf novae, cataclysmic variables, quasars, active galactic nuclei), pulsar magnetospheres, and Seyfert galaxies. Finally, as stars provide a laboratory in which plasmas can be studied under more extreme conditions than on earth, the study of stellar atmospheres has strong connections with modern physics. Astronomical observations provided a vital stimulus in the early stages of quantum theory and atomic physics; even today topics such as low-temperature dielectronic recombination develop hand in hand with the interpretation of stellar and nebular spectra. Early work on MHD was similiarly motivated. Many such connections remain to be explored.
Download or read book Differential Geometric Methods in Theoretical Physics written by Ling-Lie Chau and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 795 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After several decades of reduced contact, the interaction between physicists and mathematicians in the front-line research of both fields recently became deep and fruit ful again. Many of the leading specialists of both fields became involved in this devel opment. This process even led to the discovery of previously unsuspected connections between various subfields of physics and mathematics. In mathematics this concerns in particular knots von Neumann algebras, Kac-Moody algebras, integrable non-linear partial differential equations, and differential geometry in low dimensions, most im portantly in three and four dimensional spaces. In physics it concerns gravity, string theory, integrable classical and quantum field theories, solitons and the statistical me chanics of surfaces. New discoveries in these fields are made at a rapid pace. This conference brought together active researchers in these areas, reporting their results and discussing with other participants to further develop thoughts in future new directions. The conference was attended by SO participants from 15 nations. These proceedings document the program and the talks at the conference. This conference was preceded by a two-week summer school. Ten lecturers gave extended lectures on related topics. The proceedings of the school will also be published in the NATO-AS[ volume by Plenum. The Editors vii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We would like to thank the many people who have made the conference a success. Furthermore, ·we appreciate the excellent talks. The active participation of everyone present made the conference lively and stimulating. All of this made our efforts worth while.
