In 1994, responding to the need for a more useful system for describing chronic pain, the International Association for the Study of Pain ( IASP ) classified pain according to specific characteristics: ( 1 ) region of the body involved ( e. g., abdomen, lower limbs ), ( 2 ) system whose dysfunction may be causing the pain ( e. g., nervous, gastrointestinal ), ( 3 ) duration and pattern of occurrence, ( 4 ) intensity and time since onset, and ( 5 ) etiology.

One of the common ways of describing the felt recoil of a particular gun-cartridge combination is as " soft " or " sharp " recoiling ; soft recoil is recoil spread over a longer period of time, that is at a lower acceleration, and sharp recoil is spread over a shorter period of time, that is with a higher acceleration.

The typical convention of using the cosine phase instead of the sine phase when describing a wave is based on the fact that the cosine is the real part of the complex exponential in the wave

These parameters are mostly only used for describing HPLC reversed phase and HPLC normal phase separations, since those separations tend to be more subtle than other HPLC modes ( e. g. ion exchange and size exclusion ).

For instance, one can view the pressure-volume diagram or entropy-temperature diagrams as describing part of this phase space.

As well as describing certain tendencies of contemporary art, postmodern has also been used to denote a phase of modern art.

In using the Laplace, Z -, or Fourier transforms, the frequency spectrum is complex, describing the magnitude and phase of a signal, or of the response of a system, as a function of frequency.

* is a " phase offset " describing how two waves can be out of sync with each other,

Early phase of Nazor's poetry work is mostly object of scholars ' research now, but Galérien's Poeme ( Galiotova pesan ) from that time ( 1903 ), describing suffering and sadness of a galley slave, attains universal meanining as condemnation of oppressing at all and still stands as one of the most expressive disapproval of slavery ; unfortunately, it is very difficult for translating, because it is written in Chakavian dialect.

where L is the Liouville operator describing the evolution of a phase space volume and C is the collision operator.

The requests cause the execution of sequences of actions, which query the installation database to build an internal script describing the execution phase in detail.

For example, the Clapeyron slope ( characterized by the Clausius-Clapeyron relation ) describing the increase in the pressure of the phase transition with increasing temperature is known to be relatively high in comparison to other solid-solid phase transitions in the Earth's mantle, however, the experimentally determined value varies from about 5 MPa / K to as high as 13 MPa / K.

1991 ( Physics ) Pierre-Gilles de Gennes for developing a generalized theory of phase transitions with particular applications to describing ordering and phase transitions in polymers.

The Sumerian King List, describing the Akkadian Empire after the death of Shar-kali-shari, states:

In quantum mechanics, Bra-ket notation is a standard notation for describing quantum states, composed of angle brackets and vertical bars.

( see figure ) The effect was observed to be independent of parameters such as the system size and impurities, and in 1981, theorist Robert Laughlin proposed a theory describing the integer states in terms of a topological invariant called the Chern number.

If we take the simple molecular orbital description of the ground state and combine that function with the functions describing all possible excited states using unoccupied orbitals arising from the same set of atomic orbitals, we also reach the full configuration interaction wavefunction.

The difference is that the Cartesian product can be interpreted simply as a pair of items ( or a list ), whereas the tensor product, used to define a monoidal category, is suitable for describing entangled quantum states.

), describing the role of participants in states of affairs or actions expressed.

For example, states and activities, but not usually achievements, can be used in English with a prepositional for-phrase describing a time duration: " I had a car for five hours ", " I shopped for five hours ", but not "* I bought a car for five hours ".

When Braid introduced the concept of hypnotism, he equivocated over the nature of the " state ", sometimes describing it as a specific sleep-like neurological state comparable to animal hibernation or yogic meditation, while at other times he emphasised that hypnotism encompasses a number of different stages or states that are

For example, we must always use symmetric states when describing photons or helium-4 atoms, and antisymmetric states when describing electrons or protons.

However, a 1988 article by Brian Martin in Science and Public Policy states that although their paper concluded the effects would be less severe than originally thought, with the authors describing these effects as a " nuclear autumn ", other statements by Thompson and Schneider show that they " resisted the interpretation that this means a rejection of the basic points made about nuclear winter ".

Post-communism is a term describing the period of political and economic transformation or " transition " in former communist states located in parts of Europe and Asia, in which new governments aimed to create free market-oriented capitalist economies.

In describing genes as being " selfish ", the author does not intend ( as he states unequivocally in the work ) to imply that they are driven by any motives or will — merely that their effects can be accurately described as if they were.

The time-independent Schrödinger equation is the equation describing stationary states.

For an equation describing a physical phenomenon, the superposition principle states that a combination of solutions to a linear equation is also a solution of it.

as two coupled equations describing the positions and of the two bodies, without interpreting the right hand sides of these equations as forces ; the equations just describe a process of interaction, without any necessity to interpret one body as the cause of the motion of the other, and allow one to predict the states of the system at later ( as well as earlier ) times.

In describing his second bronze portal for the Florence Baptistry, he states: " In this work I sought to imitate nature as closely as possible, both in proportions and in perspective ... the buildings appear as seen by the eye of one who gazes on them from a distance.

In 1951, the British physician Richard Asher published an article in The Lancet describing three cases of patients whose factitious disorders led them to lie about their own states of health.

This difference is sometimes expressed by describing a realist world view as one which sees nation states as billiard balls, liberals would consider relationships between states to be more of a cobweb.

Predicate dualists believe that so-called " folk psychology ", with all of its propositional attitude ascriptions, is an ineliminable part of the enterprise of describing, explaining and understanding human mental states and behavior.

His two main projects in this area has just recently been released entitled Biopower and Biopolitics, it relates to the practice of modern Nation states and their regulation of their subjects through " an explosion of numerous and diverse techniques for achieving the subjugations of bodies and the control of populations " and also by describing Biopower: " By this I mean a number of phenomena that seem to me to be quite significant, namely, the set of mechanisms through which the basic biological features of the human species became the object of a political strategy, of a general strategy of power, or, in other words, how, starting from the 18th century, modern Western societies took on board the fundamental biological fact that human beings are a species.
