Starting from the second order around thermal equilibrium, the response of a statistical mechanical system to an external stimulus is not only governed by dissipation and depends explicitly on dynamical details of the system. The so called frenetic contribution in the second order around equilibrium is illustrated in different physical examples, such as for non-thermodynamic aspects in the coup...

The lead article in this January-February 2021 issue—the first of the Hastings Center Report's fiftieth year publication—does not set out to change medicine. It tries instead understand it. In “A Heart without Life: Artificial Organs and Lived Body,” Mary Jean Walker draws on work phenomenology empirical research with people who have received artificial heart devices argue that such may two ver...

Energy equation for turbulent flow in a rotating system was derived in terms of second order correlation tensors, where the correlation tensors were functions of space coordinates, distance between two points and time. To reveal the relationship of turbulent energy between two points, one point was taken as origin of the coordinate system. Due to rotation, the Coriolis force played an important...

In each of Plato's major cosmological works, the Timaeus , the Statesman myth and the Philebus , he asserts that the body of the whole universe is alive and possesses a single WorldSoul which extends throughout it. I wish to offer a new interpretation of the role of the World-Soul which gives the World-Soul a special function in the economy of the Platonic cosmology and which explains why Plato...

though plato and sohravardi appearantly have the same view on the essence of human soul and the way in which it belongs to body, there are fundam ental differences in their point of view and their style as well. this paper deals with soul which is believed by both philosophers to be the origin of the human’s soul at first and, then, expresses their idea and reasonings about the occurance and an...

issues on differences between men and women have always been a source for dispute and different approaches in the available literature on women. some have seen these differences resulting from the dissimilar socialization of men and women in family and society. while some put more emphasis on the physiological differences and rely on theological interpretations, some others consider them as ess...

turbulence structure on the gas side of a wavy stratified flow was experimentally investigated in a near horizontal 18.7 cm (h) 10 cm (w) 5.5m (l) rectangular duct.by applying the variable interval time averaging (vita) technique to the hot wire anemometer measurements frequency of occurrence of turbulent events were detected near the air-water interface. experimental results showed that freque...

the dual nature of human existence, and having both physical and spiritual affairs have been accepted by religious scholars and divine philosophers . most philosophers, especially muslim  philosophers, despite the disagreement on  the way of soul creation have agreed about the soul creation itself and lack of its precedence over body .at least we can prove this idea with two arguments from ebne...
