Women and Transitions: The Theory of Turning Points
نویسنده
چکیده
A migraine attack, a banking crisis or the point of no return for climate change; all these seemingly different phenomena have at least one important thing in common. They suppose the transition from one stable state to another. The climate or the banking system may seem stable and capable of withstanding small or large crises. However, they can deteriorate progressively until reaching a point of inflection, like a chair that stands on two legs but until, with a slight push, it falls from one side [1].

Magnetic Properties and Phase Transitions in a Spin-1 Random Transverse Ising Model on Simple Cubic Lattice
Within the effective-field theory with correlations (EFT), a transverse random field spin-1 Ising model on the simple cubic (z=6) lattice is studied. The phase diagrams, the behavior of critical points, transverse magnetization, internal energy, magnetic specific heat are obtained numerically and discussed for different values of p the concentration of the random transverse field.
متن کاملForks in the Road: Memories of Turning Points and Transitions
Turning points and transitions are both life events marked by significant change. Whereas turning points are personal changes in life direction, transitions are external changes in daily circumstances. Transition-linked turning points are events that fit both of these definitions. Although transitions and turning points have been examined separately, the current study is the first empirical com...
متن کاملThe Uniqueness Theorem for the Solutions of Dual Equations of Sturm-Liouville Problems with Singular Points and Turning Points
In this paper, linear second-order differential equations of Sturm-Liouville type having a finite number of singularities and turning points in a finite interval are investigated. First, we obtain the dual equations associated with the Sturm-Liouville equation. Then, we prove the uniqueness theorem for the solutions of dual initial value problems.
متن کاملThe numerical values of the nodal points for the Sturm-Liouville equation with one turning point
An inverse nodal problem has first been studied for the Sturm-Liouville equation with one turning point. The asymptotic representation of the corresponding eigenfunctions of the eigenvalues has been investigated and an asymptotic of the nodal points is obtained. For this problem, we give a reconstruction formula for the potential function. Furthermore, numerical examples have been established a...
متن کاملTurning Points and Transitions in the Health of the Patients: A Perspective from Family Medicine
Turning point is a key concept in the developmental life course approach, but is currently understudied in Family Medicine, and merits further research. A turning point often involves a particular event, experience, or awareness of it, that results in changes in the direction of a pathway or persistent trajectory over the long-term. Turning points are transitions of healthcare, or changes demog...
