"four-and-twenty, Twenty-four". What's in a Number?
This paper investigates "what's in a number", i.e. how natural numbers are pronounced in several European languages. As regards reading numbers above 20, 29 languages read the decade first and then the digit, e.g. twenty-four, and 10 languages read the digit before the decade, e.g. four-and-twenty.

متن کاملThe Densest Lattice in Twenty-four Dimensions
In this research announcement we outline the methods used in our recent proof that the Leech lattice is the unique densest lattice in R24. Complete details will appear elsewhere, but here we illustrate our techniques by applying them to the case of lattice packings in R2, and we discuss the obstacles that arise in higher dimensions.
متن کاملTwenty-four hour simulation of solar chimneys
A model for time dependent analysis of solar chimneys is presented. The energy balance equations for three components of solar chimneys, absorbing plate, cover glass and air-gap are discretized with respect to time using an implicit finite difference model. The discretized nonlinear energy balance equations are solved for numerous time steps over a 24-h period using the Newton–Raphson method. T...
متن کاملTwenty-four hour efficacy of glaucoma medications.
Current medical therapy of glaucoma aims to attain a meaningful and consistent reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) to a predetermined level of target IOP, which will commensurate with either stability, or delayed progression of visual loss. Glaucoma is a 24-h disease and the damaging effect of elevated IOP is continuous. Therefore, it is reasonable that we should endeavor to identify the tr...
