Non-differentiable space-time and scale relativity∗
The theory of scale relativity consists of developing the consequences of the withdrawal of the hypothesis of space-time differentiability. Spacetime acquires a fractal geometry, namely, it becomes explicitly dependent on the observation scale. The space-time resolutions are redefined as characterizing the state of scale of the reference system, then we set the principle of scale relativity, ac...
متن کاملOntology-aided annotation, visualization, and generalization of geological time-scale information from online geological map services
Geological maps are increasingly published and shared online, whereas tools and services supporting information retrieval and knowledge discovery are underdeveloped. In this study, we developed an ontology of geological time scale by using a RDF (Resource Description Framework) model to represent the ordinal hierarchical structure of the geological time scale and to encode collected annotations...
متن کاملScale relativity and fractal space-time: theory and applications
In the first part of this contribution, we review the development of the theory of scale relativity and its geometric framework constructed in terms of a fractal and nondifferentiable continuous space-time. This theory leads (i) to a generalization of possible physically relevant fractal laws, written as partial differential equation acting in the space of scales, and (ii) to a new geometric fo...
متن کاملThe Scale-Relativity Program∗
The theory of scale relativity is an attempt at developing the consequences of giving up the implicit hypothesis of space-time differentiability. One of these consequences is that space-time becomes fractal, i.e., explicitly resolution-dependent. The principle of relativity is extended in order to be also valid for scale transformations of space-time resolutions. In the present contribution, we...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of the translation teacher competency test and the scale of students’ perceptions of translation teachers
the major purpose of this study was to develop the translation teacher competency test (ttct) and examine its construct and predictive validity. the present study was conducted in two phases: a qualitative phase as well as a quantitative phase. in the first phase of the study, the author attempted to find out the major areas of competency required for an academic translation teacher. the second...
