Marxist computer programmer Paul Cockshott argues that economic calculation is possible within a socialist state as long as computational devices are used. In "Towards a New Socialism's "Information and Economics: A Critique of Hayek" and "Against Mises", he argues that central planning is simplified by the use of computers in calculating the component of price not accounted for by Marxian ...
This example illustrates how a car and a truck affect the surface of a road differently according to the fourth power law. Car (total weight 2 tonnes, 2 axles): load per axle: 1 tonnes; Truck (total weight 30 tonnes, 3 axles): load per axle: 10 tonnes = =, times as large
The Shields approach is based on a uniform, permanent flow with a turbulence generated by the bed roughness (i.e. no additional turbulence by a for example a propeller current). In the case of a rough bed in shallow water, and in case of unusual turbulence, the Izbash's formula is therefore more recommended.
The LGD calculation is easily understood with the help of an example: If the client defaults with an outstanding debt of $200,000 and the bank or insurance is able to sell the security (e.g. a condo) for a net price of $160,000 (including costs related to the repurchase), then the LGD is 20% (= $40,000 / $200,000).
In the power systems analysis field of electrical engineering, a per-unit system is the expression of system quantities as fractions of a defined base unit quantity. . Calculations are simplified because quantities expressed as per-unit do not change when they are referred from one side of a transformer to t
These are not standardized in any way, and may often be for short-term use. The following are some examples: Codes that indicate an airline's common name for a fare. As a hypothetical example, an airline selling what they refer to as their "Super-Saver" fare may use SPRSVR in the fare basis, or may use it as the entire code.
Binge eating disorder is the most common type of eating disorder in the U.S. Binge eating is characterized as eating large amounts of food in a short period, typically under two hours.
Calculation: Availability = Time operators are working productively / Time scheduled Example: Two employees (workforce) are scheduled to work 8 hour (480 minutes) shifts. The normal shift includes a scheduled 30 minute break. The employees experience 60 minutes of unscheduled downtime. Scheduled Time = 960 min − 60 min break = 900 Min
