Biological anthropologists are interested in both human variation and in the possibility of human universals ( behaviors, ideas or concepts shared by virtually all human cultures ) They use many different methods of study, but modern population genetics, participant observation and other techniques often take anthropologists " into the field ," which means traveling to a community in its own setting, to do something called " fieldwork.

The abacus was in use centuries before the adoption of the written modern numeral system and is still widely used by merchants, traders and clerks in Asia, Africa, and elsewhere.

Where the Roman model ( like most modern Japanese ) has 4 plus 1 bead per decimal place, the standard suanpan has 5 plus 2, allowing use with a hexadecimal numeral system.

While Kierkegaard's feeling of angst is fear of actual responsibility to God, in modern use, angst was broadened by the later existentialists to include general frustration associated with the conflict between actual responsibilities to self, one's principles, and others ( possibly including God ).

The Aramaic alphabet is historically significant, since virtually all modern Middle Eastern writing systems use a script that can be traced back to it, as well as numerous non-Chinese writing systems of Central and East Asia.

Among the scripts in modern use, the Hebrew alphabet bears the closest relation to the Imperial Aramaic script of the 5th century BCE, with an identical letter inventory and, for the most part, nearly identical letter shapes.

The use of a single official language, which modern scholarship has dubbed Official Aramaic or Imperial Aramaic, can be assumed to have greatly contributed to the astonishing success of the Achaemenids in holding their far-flung empire together for as long as they did.

This explains the widespread use of digital signals in preference to analog in modern technology.

The traditional etymology is from the Latin aperire, " to open ," in allusion to its being the season when trees and flowers begin to " open ," which is supported by comparison with the modern Greek use of ἁνοιξις ( anoixis ) ( opening ) for spring.

Some modern descendants of this culture often choose to use the term " Ancestral Pueblo " peoples.

When making use of modern cultural divisions in the American Southwest, it is important to comprehend that current terms and conventions have significant limitations:

The Bridgewater Foundry, pictured in 1839-one of the earliest factories to use an almost modern layout, work flow and material handling system.

In modern English, " Americans " generally refers to residents of the United States, and among native speakers of English this usage is almost universal, with any other use of the term requiring specification of the subject under discussion.

Locally, the relatives of the camel, the llama, and the alpaca continue to carry out important uses as pack animals, but this use has generally diminished in modern times.

This is particularly important for light, modern anchors designed to bury in the bottom, where ratios of 5 – 7 to 1 are common, whereas heavy anchors and moorings can use 3 to 1 or less.

Although when burned, amber does give off a characteristic " pinewood " fragrance, modern products, such as perfume, do not normally use actual amber.

As an English name, it has been in use since the Middle Ages, though it was not popular until modern times.

Historically, archery has been used for hunting and combat, while in modern times, its main use is that of a recreational activity.

In order to overcome this weakness, modern aircraft use a terrain awareness warning system ( TAWS ).

Modern use of similar terms includes genetic engineering as well as cell and tissue culture technologies.

As noted above, biomedical engineering has only recently been emerging as its own discipline rather than a cross-disciplinary hybrid specialization of other disciplines ; and BME programs at all levels are becoming more widespread, including the Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering which actually includes so much biological science content that many students use it as a " pre-med " major in preparation for medical school.

* The intended use of the measurement including the engineering tolerances

All such adjustments to crime statistics, allied with the experience of people in their everyday lives, shape attitudes on the extent to which the State should use law or social engineering to enforce or encourage any particular social norm.

" Chemical engineering ", describing the use of mechanical equipment in the chemical industry, became common vocabulary in England after 1850.

In the 20th century, new ceramic materials were developed for use in advanced ceramic engineering ; for example, in semiconductors.

* Computer-aided software engineering ( CASE ), use of computers to assist in the software development life cycle

* an interdisciplinary subfield of science, which originated in engineering and mathematics, and evolved into use by the social sciences, like psychology, sociology, criminology and in the financial system.

In many fields of science and engineering, SI is the only system of units in use.

The conversion of the original design drawings into drawings suitable for engineering manufacturers ' use revealed some minor errors in Babbage's design ( possibly introduced as a protection in case the plans were stolen ), which had to be corrected.

Today most engineering work involves the use of computers and it is commonplace to use computer-aided design programs when designing electrical systems.

Electronic engineering involves the design and testing of electronic circuits that use the properties of components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes and transistors to achieve a particular functionality.

Microelectronics engineering deals with the design and microfabrication of very small electronic circuit components for use in an integrated circuit or sometimes for use on their own as a general electronic component.

The SI unit of electric charge is the coulomb ( C ), although in electrical engineering it is also common to use the ampere-hour ( Ah ), and in chemistry it is common to use the elementary charge ( e ) as a unit.

Using techniques from science, engineering and statistics, such as the systematic review of medical literature, meta-analysis, risk-benefit analysis, and randomized controlled trials ( RCTs ), EBM aims for the ideal that healthcare professionals should make " conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of current best evidence " in their everyday practice.

In basic chemistry scientists are typically interested in experiments conducted at atmospheric pressure, and for reaction energy calculations they care about the total energy in such conditions, and therefore typically need to use H. Furthermore the enthalpy is the working horse of engineering thermodynamics as we will see later.

Digital rights management systems which prevent unauthorized use or reproduction of copyrighted material and protect software against reverse engineering ( see also copy protection ) are another somewhat different example of using encryption on data at rest.

Originally developed by IBM at their campus in south San Jose, California in the 1950s for scientific and engineering applications, Fortran came to dominate this area of programming early on and has been in continual use for over half a century in computationally intensive areas such as numerical weather prediction, finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, computational physics and computational chemistry.

Since Fortran has been in use for more than fifty years, there is a vast body of Fortran in daily use throughout the scientific and engineering communities.

Several Grand Prix teams established formal links with F3000 teams to develop young drivers ( and engineering talent ); these relationships varied from formal " junior teams " ( such as the one McLaren set up for Nick Heidfeld ) to fairly distant relationships based mostly upon shared sponsors and the use of the ' parent ' team's name.
