Foresight should also focus on discontinuities - broader phenomena and developments instead of single events.
The account is framed by the concept of global modernity, which, while not spelled out in detail, guides the presentation of data and other secondary materials in the aim to demonstrate connections between, and, at least to some extent, common roots of, phenomena and developments that might otherwise appear to be quite disparate.
Combining the mechanical properties, experimental phenomena and strain development, beam hinge failure mode can be identified for all specimens.
The recent introduction of nanostructured surface modification techniques has opened a new chapter in the study of boiling phenomena and the development of very high heat transfer systems.
Optical metamaterials, without doubt, constitute one of the most exciting areas of research in modern optics that is likely to result in discoveries of new phenomena and the development of novel device applications for nanophotonics.
The systematic elucidation of biological phenomena and the development of effective biotechnological solutions to a series of commercial problems are both increasingly dependent on systems engineering approaches to handle the effective analysis of rapidly accumulating amounts of data on the genome of various species, and the monitoring of biological quantities.
A possible role of the M3 phenotype in immune phenomena and disease development can be demonstrated by the next examples.
By the end of the 20th century, it had become clear that the effects on gene expression observed in epigenetic phenomena and during development could only be fully understood in light of chromatin-based mechanisms.
Emerging literature suggests that women can play a significant role in the larger entrepreneurship phenomenon and economic development (Sarfaraz et al., 2014).
His experimentation led to the discovery of positive and negative charges, the classification of lightning as an electrical phenomenon, and the development of the lightning rod.
