Aerodynamics allows the definition and solution of equations for the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy in air.

This approach also allows preserving the curve definition under all linear or perspective 2D and 3D transforms and projections.

DHTML allows scripting languages to change variables in a web page's definition language, which in turn affects the look and function of otherwise " static " HTML page content, after the page has been fully loaded and during the viewing process.

The electric field was formally defined as the force exerted per unit charge, but the concept of potential allows for a more useful and equivalent definition: the electric field is the local gradient of the electric potential.

The International Folk Music Council definition allows that the term " can also be applied to music which has originated with an individual composer and has subsequently been absorbed into the unwritten, living tradition of a community.

This allows the definition of the arithmetic-geometric mean, a mixture of the two which always lies in between.

One definition sees language primarily as the mental faculty that allows humans to undertake linguistic behaviour: to learn languages and produce and understand utterances.

While it is one of the most commonly used concepts in logic it must not be mistaken for a logical law ; rather, it is one of the accepted mechanisms for the construction of deductive proofs that includes the " rule of definition " and the " rule of substitution " Modus ponens allows one to eliminate a conditional statement from a logical proof or argument ( the antecedents ) and thereby not carry these antecedents forward in an ever-lengthening string of symbols ; for this reason modus ponens is sometimes called the rule of detachment.

This turns the seminormed space into a pseudometric space ( notice this is weaker than a metric ) and allows the definition of notions such as continuity and convergence.

A " folded " hierarchy allows a single definition to be represented several times by instances.

This allows the definition of the term to be extended to include objects for which it is difficult to define clearly a natural underlying space, such as the 11-cell.

This allows for the definition of the information function ( in the context of information theory ):

The definition of theorems as elements of a formal language allows for results in proof theory that study the structure of formal proofs and the structure of provable formulas.

This definition allows one to determine in the following way, as described by Purcell:

While interoperability was initially defined for IT systems or services and only allows for information to be exchanged ( see definition below ), a more generic definition could be this one:

IEEE 754 NaNs are represented with the exponential field filled with ones ( like infinity values ), and some non-zero number in the significand ( to make them distinct from infinity values ); this representation allows the definition of multiple distinct NaN values, depending on which bits are set in the significand, but also on the value of the leading sign bit ( not all applications are required to provide distinct semantics for those distinct NaN values ).

To make things completely formal, the Cauchy sequences definition of R allows us to define +∞ as the set of all sequences of rationals which, for any K > 0, from some point on exceed K. We can define −∞ similarly.

One variation allows a player to vote for the definition he submitted, although he doesn't get points for doing so.

The Power Set Axiom allows a simple definition of the Cartesian product of two sets and:

Whatever definition is used, measuring the IP of different input devices allows the devices to be compared with respect to their pointing capability.

This allows the definition of a formal proof to be precisely specified without any ambiguity.

Participatory democracy, by Fiskin's definition, allows inclusive participation and deliberation, but at a cost of sacrificing equality – because widespread participation is allowed there will rarely be sufficient resources to compensate people who give up their time to take part in the deliberation, and so the participants tend to be those with a strong interest in the issue to be decided, and therefore will often not be representative of the overall population.

It allows manufacturers to virtually define, plan, create, monitor and control all production processes, from the early process planning and assembly simulation to a complete definition of the production facility and equipment.

This allows one to give an alternative definition of smooth manifold which makes no reference to transition maps or to a specific atlas: a smooth manifold is a diffeological space which is locally diffeomorphic to R < sup > n </ sup >.

In addition, his definition of a tragedy invites our attention, because a serious and important action may very well be one that tests the moral fiber of the author or of the characters.

It has to, by virtue of the very dictionary definition of the word `` few ''.

This is a very abstract definition since, in category theory, morphisms aren't necessarily functions and objects aren't necessarily sets.

Because this range of non-zero amplitude may be very broad or infinite, this definition is typically relaxed so that the bandwidth is defined as the range of frequencies in which the signal's spectral density is above a certain threshold relative to its maximum.

) In reliance on this assumption, modern statutes often leave a number of terms and fine distinctions unstated — for example, a statute might be very brief, leaving the precise definition of terms unstated, under the assumption that these fine distinctions will be inherited from pre-existing common law.

While it is always possible to directly apply the definition of the derivative to compute the derivative of a composite function, this is usually very difficult.

First, State coercion may very easily be arbitrary – indeed technically very specific, according to the above definition.

It does not describe such concepts as name spaces very well at all, and the differences between a definition and a reference is not clearly describable either.

The UCR data only reflect the most serious offense in the case of connected crimes and has a very restrictive definition of rape.

Note that with this definition, two elements a and b may very well have several greatest common divisors, or none at all.

In Adam MacGregor's definition, " the blast-beat generally comprises a repeated, sixteenth-note figure played at a very fast tempo, and divided uniformly among the kick drum, snare and ride, crash, or hi-hat cymbal.

Today, law enforcement agencies, popular media, the United Nations, other nations and even some medical practitioners can be observed applying the term very broadly and often pejoratively in reference to a wide range of illicit substances, regardless of the more precise definition existing in medical contexts.

If the term has nonetheless retained a certain consistency in its use across these fields and would-be movements, it perhaps reflects the word ’ s position in general English usage: though the standard dictionary definition of irreal gives it the same meaning as unreal, irreal is very rarely used in comparison with unreal.

Smooth, highly spun yarns are best for showing off stitch patterns ; at the other extreme, very fuzzy yarns or eyelash yarns have poor stitch definition, and any complicated stitch pattern would be invisible.

The law of definite proportions might seem obvious to the modern chemist, inherent in the very definition of a chemical compound.

The origins of the lute are obscure, and organologists disagree about the very definition of a lute.

" In this view, " wicked and unjust statutes " are " anything but ' laws ,'" because " in the very definition of the term ' law ' there inheres the idea and principle of choosing what is just and true.

Take good and evil for example: goodness is biblically defined as that which is of God ; it is intrinsic to his being and is revealed most prominently through his provision of Old Testament Law, the keeping of which is the very definition of goodness and the neglecting of which ( on even the slightest of grounds ), is the epitome of evil.

Therefore, it is very likely that any definition of " the physical " based on the current state of physics would end up being ultimately false.

A scientifically minded physicalist may, following Andrew Melnyk, accept the first horn of the dilemma ; that is, a physicalist could live with the idea that the current definition of physicalism may very likely end up being false as long as he believes the proposition is more plausible than any currently formulated rival proposition, such as dualism.

Any definition which focuses on amusement leaves us unsatisfied since the feelings experienced by a world class chess player are very different from those of a circle of children playing Duck Duck Goose.

This definition is very broad, listing 6 primary components: Support, Operability, Accessibility, Retainability, Integrity and Security.

Because the spacecraft environment is by definition limited, a very small number of sets can be heavily used, lowering production costs and allowing producers to focus on character development, setting detail, or sometimes simply to keep a production in the black so it can stay on the air.

The standard definition is that a concept is normative if it is a concept regarding or depending on the norms, or obligations and permissions ( very broadly construed ), involved in human conduct.
