With guidance by molecular theory, the dependence of viscoelastic properties on these variables can be simplified by introducing additional concepts such as the free volume, the monomeric friction coefficient, and the spacing between entanglement loci, to provide a qualitative understanding and in many cases a quantitative prediction of how to achieve desired physical and chemical properties and ultimate microstructure.

For Knight ‘ picturesque ’ means simply ‘ after the manner of painting ’, a point which is important to his further discussion of sensation, which in Knight's view is central to the understanding of painting and music which are ‘ addressed to the organs of sight and hearing ’, while poetry and sculpture appeal ‘ entirely to the imagination and passions .’ The latter must be understood in terms of associations of ideas, while the former rely on the ‘ irritation ’ or friction of sensitive parts of the body.

In our current understanding of physics, the Bohr model is called a semi-classical model because of its quantization of angular momentum, not primarily because of its relationship with electron wavelength, which appeared in hindsight a dozen years after the Bohr model was proposed.

This was, in fact, Swiss Reformed theologian, Karl Barth's, understanding of the doctrine of election.
