Reliability: Treating the Building & the Fault Line As One &the Same
On 2010-06-08, Bret Cahill <BretCahill(a)peoplepc.com> wrote: The same approach could also be applied to a reinforced concrete structure near an active fault line.

If D is dense, K closed, U open, X = K \/ U, f:X -> Y and f is continuous over U and over K \/ D, then f is continuous. Here... 8 Jun 2010 08:03

Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation proves Atom Totality and dismisses Big Bang Chapt 3 #148; ATOM TOTALITY
This is the 4th edition of this book and I was not able to organize it sufficiently. Perhaps it is because I am learning too much to be able to organize properly. When the learning slows down am I able to wrestle with order and organization. At least one thing I have saved to make better order in the next edition... 8 Jun 2010 03:40

Archimedes Plutonium wrote: Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 5229 (issue of 28 June 1999) There is alot about lightwaves that I do not know, as I was reading about Slow-Light Experiments.

Definition of Quotient/Normal Bundle , Using a Short E.Seq.
Hi, everyone: I am trying to understand better the definition of a quotient bundle, from a paper. Please comment on wether my understanding/interpretation is correct; here is the def, and below is my interpretation: "Given a smooth manifold X with tangent bundle T_X, and a submanifold Y<X , we ge... 8 Jun 2010 01:29

Reliability: Treating the Building & the Fault Line As One & the Same
There was some technique to deal with the uncertainty of the strength of a structure, say, an aircraft wing, under a lifetime loading situation which also fit some statistical distribution. The same approach could also be applied to a reinforced concrete structure near an active fault line. (Earthquake insurance... 8 Jun 2010 01:29

Z is not naturally ordered?
I'm aware of two (partial)) order definitions (and looking forward to expand my perspective): 1. (Semi)lattice: x < y <-> x ^ y = y. 2. N: x < y <-> exists z: x + z = y. (There is no pun intended with the name "natural order" applied in second case) Now it comes with a bit of surprise that there is no natural o... 9 Jun 2010 14:13
