The Social Meaning of Physical Action

2013
Intelligent systems should be able to initiate and understand social interactions, which are always brought about by physical actions. Thus, all physical actions need to be interpreted for their social effects. This paper gives an analytical framework that identifies the main challenges in modelling social interactions.

Orientations of the actions of physics teachers

International Journal of Science Education, 1989
Although teachers’ thinking and their subjective (implicit) theories have been investigated for many years, little research has been carried out into teachers’ thinking and decision‐making in specific areas. This paper describes the main orientations of physics teachers that are assumed to be typical for this subject.

Availing the Physics of Least Action

New Literary History, 1995
Amidst the talk about totality of language?its logic, its rhetoric, its aesthetics, its politics?there persists an unapparent action that we do every day. Like Wittgenstein's language games that we use as commonplace, this kind of action seems not to have a locutionary figure of speech, perhaps because we do it unskeptically.

Pipe organs: physics in an action

Physics World, 2002
The pipe organ is the most impressive of all musical instruments, often reaching heights of metres or even tens of metres in concert halls and churches. One of the most crucial parts of the organ is the "action" – the mechanism that links the keys and the pipes.

Action at a Distance in Physics and Cosmology

Physics Bulletin, 1975
F Hoyle and J V Narlikar Reading: W H Freeman 1974 pp x + 266 price £7.80 Neither of these authors has shirked controversy in the past and this together with their undoubted ability to write in an attractive way made the review of this book an exciting prospect. I was not disappointed.

Mechanism of action of physical antipyresis in the rat

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1988
To study the mechanism of action of physical antipyresis, core temperature was measured in two groups of rats in which heat loss was increased by cold exposure and by cooling an inferior cava heat exchanger, respectively, both before and after infection with Salmonella enteritidis. Cold exposure did not influence core temperature.

Physics of Stocks and Flows in Action

2015
A fairly large number of energy policy models have been developed by using system dynamics approach over a period of about five decades. In this chapter, we present a snapshot view of some selected models to see how these stocks and flows-based models have contributed to the better understanding of various energy policy related issues. Specifically, we

Physical Action Without Interaction

Erkenntnis, 2009
In “Action without interaction” (2005) I showed that one might act on a physical system (there, a particle), without interacting with it, by the procedure of making it disappear. This paper presents further extensions and a critique of that result.
