Way Beyond Weight

lower with multidimensional payoffs (e.g., choice among phonograph records or among marriageable young ladies).(SIMON, 1963, p. 325) E sugeria as seguintes interpretações para essa evidência: We can interpret these results in either of two ways. We can say that consumers ‘want’ to maximize utility, and that if we present them with clear and simple choices that they understand they will do so. Or we can say that the real world is so complicated that the theory of utility…

reasons; it is constant, in the sense that some sort of variation is always there, but it changes its locus within the language across generations, and is a crucial ingredient in language change. Linguists sometimes shy away from variation: it gets in the way when we want to describe straightforwardly ‘what happens in English’, and meet the response ‘not in my dialect’. Sometimes it is used as a default explanation; but at the same time, many recent approaches to linguistic theory see…

discusses the many ways to obtain and view data from P6, including screen printing and the built-in reporting engine in P6 Professional, and using BI Publisher in P6 EPPM. What you need for this book In order to get the most out of this book it is helpful to have a copy of P6 at hand so that you may try out the concepts for yourself. It is also very helpful to have one or more actual projects to work with, so that you can apply what you learn as you read along. The easiest way to…

reflecting a self-portrait in bold black and white. It’?s been both challenging and incredibly liberating. I spent quite a bit of time discussing the pages of my life with many friends and family during the process of writing this book, in a more open way than ever before. In an atmosphere similar to sitting around a campfire, we found ourselves reminiscing, exchanging stories, and sharing from the heart as we reflected together. For my sister Carrie and I especially, it’?s been a…

endeavors. Metals (wrought, cast, forged, powder), plastics (thermoplastics/thermosets), composites, structural ceramics, and coatings are continually finding new applications in the above industries. The trend toward combining high strength and light weight is evident in fiber/particle/whiskerreinforced composites. This encyclopedia/handbook covers not only these matrix composites (metallic, plastic, ceramic, and intermetallic), but also other materials of the future — nano and…

would have a volume of NA × 1.0 cm3 , where NA is the Avogadro √ constant. Since the volume of a cube is equal to the length cubed, V = l3 , then l = 3 NA cm = 8.4 × 107 cm. E1-28 The number of seconds in a week is 60 × 60 × 24 × 7 = 6.05 × 105 . The “weight” loss per second is then (0.23 kg)/(6.05 × 105 s) = 3.80 × 10−1 mg/s. E1-29 The definition of the meter was wavelengths per meter; the question asks for meters per wavelength, so we want to take the reciprocal. The definition is…

His aircraft employed the technology available at that time. The present work reports in resumed way the aircraft designed by Santos Dumont in a different approach. It also describes the aeronautical pioneers before Dumont's flight with the 14Bis airplane in Le Bagatelle in 1906. An overview of the aviation in early twenty century is also part of the present work. The authors believe this way of presenting the historic facts will enable the reader to better understand Santos…
