While the classical account of the linear continuum takes it to be a totality of points, which are its ultimate parts, Aristotle conceives of it as continuous and infinitely divisible, without ultimate parts. A formal account of this conception can be given employing a theory of quantification for nonatomic domains and a theory of region-based topology.

To evaluate possible futures with regard to economy, energy and climate, a multi-agent modelling approach is used. Agents hold different perspectives on how the world functions (worldview) and how it should be managed (management style) and this is implemented in a simple dynamic model of the economy-energy-climate system. Each perspective is supported by a proportion of the agents, but this pr...

linear dynamic response of simply supported nanobeams subjected to a variable axial force is assessed by galerkin numerical approach. constitutive behavior is described by three functional forms of elastic energy densities enclosing nonlocal and strain gradient effects and their combination. linear stationary dynamics of nanobeams is modulated by an axial force which controls the global stiffne...

The culture of learning that defines Web Society converges to the construction of a new educational model, featured by the diversity and plurality of individuals. However, the normality standards are socially established accentuate the problem that stigmatizes the universe of deficiency, which relates it to incapacity or ineffectiveness. The objective of this article is to comprehend the learni...

Abstract We analyse the basic premises of “Froissaron-maximal Odderon” (FMO) model which was claimed to be “the only existing describes totality experimental data”. It is shown that FMO suffers from serious theoretical flaws while its quality data description such probability it selected set not satisfactory enough.

We plot the functionality and architecture of a personalized agent that represents its users in decisionmaking on various matters, when it is necessary to reason about mental attributes of other human and automatic agents (virtual mental world). Natural language multiagent mental simulator NL_MAMS is suggested as a unit for reasoning and user profile specification. The simulator is capable of y...
