Sufficiently Fat Polyhedra are Not 2-Castable
In this note we consider the problem of manufacturing a convex polyhedral object via casting. We consider a generalization of the sand casting process where the object is manufactured by gluing together two identical faces of parts cast with a single piece mold. In this model we show that the class of convex polyhedra which can be enclosed between two concentric spheres with the ratio of their ...
متن کاملAll opinions are not equal.
To the Editor: Gibbons et al1 detail the “noble” and Herculean task of developing American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association cardiovascular guidelines. Recommendations are based on either experimental results or opinion, with the latter being considered of uniformly lower evidentiary importance. The contribution of opinion to the guidelines is substantial in that opinion supports...
متن کاملHESS Opinions “Climate, hydrology, energy, water: recognizing uncertainty and seeking sustainability”
Since 1990 extensive funds have been spent on research in climate change. Although Earth Sciences, including climatology and hydrology, have benefited significantly, progress has proved incommensurate with the effort and funds, perhaps because these disciplines were perceived as “tools” subservient to the needs of the cli5 mate change enterprise rather than autonomous sciences. At the same time...
متن کاملLow-toxicity dusts: current exposure guidelines are not sufficiently protective.
Exposure to low-toxicity dusts, which have previously been viewed as 'nuisance dusts', can cause chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or other nonmalignant respiratory disease. In Britain, the 'de facto' airborne exposure limits for these dusts have remained unchanged for >30 years; currently, they are 10mg m(-3) for inhalable dust and 4mg m(-3) for respirable dust. During this time, exposures...
متن کاملHESS Opinions “Topography driven conceptual modelling (FLEX-Topo)”
Heterogeneity and complexity of hydrological processes offer substantial challenges to the hydrological modeller. Some hydrologists try to tackle this problem by introducing more and more detail in their models, or by settingup more and more complicated models starting from basic principles at the smallest possible level. As we know, this reductionist approach leads to ever higher levels of equ...
