objectives: civil rights may cover different aspects of citizens’ lives. all the members of the society should have equal access to the public facilities and public transportation system. barriers and obstacles in society may limit the accessibility of these facilities to the disabled people. methods: this article contains a part of the results in a phenomenological study of the disability righ...

Recent measurements of selected QCD processes at the Tevatron are reviewed and confronted with theoretical calculations. Results on inclusive jet production at large transverse momentum (pT ) are compared to predictions from next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD (pQCD). Kinematic distributions of jets with light and heavy flavor produced in association with electroweak bosons are compare...

The mind-body problem lies at the heart of the clinical practice of both psychiatry and psychosomatic medicine. In their recent publication, Schwartz and Wiggins address the question of how to understand life as central to the mind-body problem. Drawing on their own use of the phenomenological method, we propose that the mind-body problem is not resolved by a general, evocative appeal to an all...

A general framework is presented for accurately and efficiently estimating the phenomenological pressure-dependent rate coefficients for reaction networks of arbitrary size and complexity using only high-pressure-limit information. Two aspects of this framework are discussed in detail. First, two methods of estimating the density of states of the species in the network are presented, including ...

Reinforced rubber is thanks to its elastic and dissipative properties found in industrial applications such as isolators, flexible joints and tires. Its dissipative propertied comes from material related losses which have the effect that energy invested when deforming the material is not retained when returning it back to its initial state. The material losses are in turn caused by interactions...

In this paper it is shown that the product of categories and the product of functors may be extended from the structural to the phenomenological domains. For the phenomenological domains the products of functors applies both to functors and autofunctors. Examples of such products representing feasible physical and informational processes are given in the case of the generation of a phenomenolog...

The central topic in this dissertation is the description and application of a method that can be used to investigate colour as a qualitative phenomenon, without reducing the wealth of meanings that can be experienced in the world of colour. This method should provide space for the experience of colour, but also for a conceptual representation that gives human thinking access to this wealth of ...

One loop contributions to the Higgs boson masses and mixings from the chargino sector consisting of the chargino, the W, and the charged Higgs boson (χ −W − H) exchanges and including the effects of large CP violating phases are computed. It is found that the chargino sector makes a large contribution to the mixings of the CP even and the CP odd Higgs sectors through the induced one loop effect...
