Reduced affect display, sometimes referred to as emotional blunting or emotional numbing, is a condition of reduced emotional reactivity in an individual. It manifests as a failure to express feelings either verbally or nonverbally, especially when talking about issues that would normally be expected to engage emotions.
Deficient affective experience: lack of remorse or guilt, shallow affect (coldness and unemotionality), callousness and lack of empathy, and failure to accept responsibility for own actions. Impulsive and irresponsible lifestyle : impulsivity, sensation-seeking and risk-taking, irresponsible and unreliable behavior, financially parasitic ...
When waves travel into areas of shallow water, they begin to be affected by the ocean bottom. [1] The free orbital motion of the water is disrupted, and water particles in orbital motion no longer return to their original position. As the water becomes shallower, the swell becomes higher and steeper, ultimately assuming the familiar sharp ...
The grey line corresponds with the shallow-water limit c p =c g = √(gh). The phase speed – and thus also the wavelength L = c p T – decreases monotonically with decreasing depth. However, the group velocity first increases by 20% with respect to its deep-water value (of c g = 1 / 2 c 0 = gT/(4π)) before decreasing in shallower ...
A macro photograph showing the defocused effect of a shallow depth of field on a tilted page of text This photo was taken with an aperture of f /22, creating a mostly in-focus background. The same scene as above with an aperture of f /1.8. Notice how much blurrier the background appears in this photo.
The squat effect is the hydrodynamic phenomenon by which a vessel moving through shallow water creates an area of reduced pressure that causes the ship to increase its draft (alternatively decrease the underkeel clearance of the vessel in marine terms) and thereby be closer to the seabed than would otherwise be expected.
The allure of multitasking is hard to ignore. Of course it sounds like a great idea to take that meeting from the car, or to have Real Housewives on “in the background” while you work, or to ...
In seismology, the depth of focus or focal depth is the depth at which an earthquake occurs. Earthquakes occurring at a depth of less than 70 km (43 mi) are classified as shallow-focus earthquakes, while those with a focal depth between 70 km (43 mi) and 300 km (190 mi) are commonly termed mid-focus or intermediate-depth earthquakes.
