Babbage: Relativity's revelations
Our correspondents discuss the importance of Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity and how it is still revealing the secrets of our cosmos
10.37 Chemical and Biological Reaction Engineering (MIT)
This course applies the concepts of reaction rate, stoichiometry and equilibrium to the analysis of chemical and biological reacting systems, derivation of rate expressions from reaction mechanisms and equilibrium or steady state assumptions, design of chemical and biochemical reactors via synthesis of chemical kinetics, transport phenomena, and mass and energy balances. Topics covered include: chemical/biochemical pathways; enzymatic, pathway, and cell growth kinetics; batch, plug flow and well

Reagan Testifies at Un-American Activities Hearing
In September 1947, the House Committee on Un-American Activities (HCUA) chaired by US Rep J Parnell Thomas subpoenaed 43 witnesses to appear in Washington, D.C. to answer questions about Communist infiltration of the motion picture industry. This newsreel includes the testimony of Ronald Reagan on October 27th. (2:14)
1.050 Solid Mechanics (MIT)
1.050 is a sophomore-level engineering mechanics course, commonly labelled "Statics and Strength of Materials" or "Solid Mechanics I." This course introduces students to the fundamental principles and methods of structural mechanics. Topics covered include: static equilibrium, force resultants, support conditions, analysis of determinate planar structures (beams, trusses, frames), stresses and strains in structural elements, states of stress (shear, bending, torsion), statically indeterminate sy
Activity 3: Where is the learning? Allow 40 minutes for this activity. What we call ‘learning’ has three very important characteristics. These are: Learning is an ongoing process and not simpl TALAT Lecture 2109: LCA - From Environmental Consciousness to Design for the Future 5.3.2 Cooperative binding A feature of some proteins comprising more than one subunit is that binding of a ligand to its binding site on one subunit, can increase the affinity of a neighbouring subunit for the same ligand, and hence enhance binding. The ligand-binding event on the first subunit is communicated, via conformational change, to the neighbouring subunit. This type of allosteric regulation is called cooperative binding.

In this sense, they are one of our most recent sources of law. These two sources are first, the organisation of member states referred to as the European Union (EU), and second, the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). They are distinct sources of law. They each act as a source of law in different ways. Membership of the EU is by application.

These processes or ‘operations’ form the very essence of any enterprise, and it is critically important that they are managed well to be effective and efficient. The full course consists of three main blocks of study: Read a Book Today!
Learning as a process
This lecture introduces the currently most widely accepted methodology for life cycle analysis and shows possible effects on designing products.
This course introduces prose narrative, both short stories and the novel. It examines the construction of narrative and the analysis of literary response.

Three words that are used seemingly interchangeably in Geometry are postulate, axiom, and conjecture. This video explains how each word is different and describes the subtle implications of using each word. These terms are especially important when working with Geometry proofs. (2:06)
This research paper describes the implementation of virtual reality immersive simulation studios in academia, facilitated by the use
of the ?Virtual Sketching Method? (VSM). The VSM allows the basic expression of architectural forms and the perceptual experience
of interior and exterior spaces. It fosters simulations based on render-less (low resolution) visualization in contrast to other simulation
workflows based on render-more (high resolution) visualization techniques. It bridges between
This presentation will present a range of collaborative research into the history and culture of Chinese medicine that has been undertaken in the last five years at the Wellcome Trust Centre for History of Medicine, UCL. Most of my personal research involves the translation, analysis and access to medical manuscripts that date from the 2nd to 11th C. CE. To this end I work with archaeologists, palaeographers, philologists, and medical historians all over China. Apart from books and article some
6.883 is a graduate seminar that investigates a variety of program analysis techniques that address software engineering tasks. Static analysis topics include abstract interpretation (dataflow), type systems, model checking, decision procedures (SAT, BDDs), theorem-proving. Dynamic analysis topics include testing, fault isolation (debugging), model inference, and visualization. While the course focuses on the design and implementation of programming tools, the material will be useful to anyone w
Sperm are tiny, haploid cells with a supremely important job: They deliver the paternal genome to the egg, helping create a zygote that develops into a new individual. For a human male, however, only a small fraction of the sperm produced will ever fertilize an egg. Sperm thus experience intense selective pressure: They must compete against each other, navigate a foreign environment in the female reproductive tract, and interact specifically and appropriately with the surface of the egg. These s
