From time immemorial, mass marketing had shaped definitions of what the good life entails -- how prosperity is defined by the need to get the coolest, mass produced toys of the season.
Furthermore, this approach to shape definition allows complex shapes to be parametrised intuitively using a very small set of design parameters.
By 2006, a new wave of core forces shaped the definition of applications.
At a deeper level, racial disparities in the criminal justice system reflect the way race shaped the definition of the drug problem and hence the proposed solutions.
While both the egalitarian and utilitarian perspectives have been useful in unraveling the notion of fairness in health; perhaps, the most important view that has shaped the definition of health inequities is anchored in Rawls' theory of social justice (8, 10, 31).
This paper describes the derivation of a consistent and comprehensive set of geometrical constraints for shape definition in CAD.
The acoustic design of the device is described with reference to the shape definition, based on FEM analysis, and to the optimization of the multilayered anechoic termination with experimental and numerical techniques.
The optimization technique proposed here operates over increasing levels of fidelity, both in terms of the resolution of its non-parametric shape definition and in terms of the resolution of the numerical analysis of the performance of putative designs.
The optimal design procedure is a combination of the computer aided geometrical design mathematical methods for the shape definition, the boundary element method used for analysis of the response quantities, assisted by the sequential linear programming method with move limits.
By using the PDE formulation it is shown how the shape definition and parametrisation can be based on a boundary value approach by which complex shapes can be created and parametrised based on the shape information at the boundaries or the character lines defining the shape.
The Silicon Valley-shaped definition of entrepreneur is incompatible with France's entrenched value of universalism.
