Loss of Temperature in Climbing [PDF]
Nature, 1870 FREQUENT reference has been lately made to the thermometrical results obtained by Dr. Lortet while walking up Mont Blanc, in which, as stated by Dr. Corfield in NATURE of Dec. 1, his temperature fell about 4°C. in ascending nearly 4,000 metres. Mr. E. R.

Physics of free climbing [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2021 Theory of stochastic processes provides theoretical tools which can be efficiently used to explore properties of noise induced escape kinetics. Since noise facilitated escape over the potential barrier resembles free climbing, one can use the first passage time theory in analysis of rock climbing.

Climbing the density functional ladder: nonempirical meta-generalized gradient approximation designed for molecules and solids. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2003 The electron density, its gradient, and the Kohn-Sham orbital kinetic energy density are the local ingredients of a meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA).

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022 Significance Soft microrobots that can climb in open, unstructured environment have crucial applications in exploration and monitoring. Small-scale soft actuators with complex, large, customized 3D-to-3D shape morphing capability could equip soft ...

Biomechanics of climbing palms and how they climb [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2009 Climbing plants have fascinated botanists since the pioneering works of Darwin and his contemporaries in the 19(th) century. Diverse plants have evolved different ways of climbing and a wide range of attachment devices and stem biomechanics to cope with the particular physical demands of life as a climber. We investigated the biomechanics of attachment

Climbing towards NLU: On Meaning, Form, and Understanding in the Age of Data
Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2020 The success of the large neural language models on many NLP tasks is exciting. However, we find that these successes sometimes lead to hype in which these models are being described as “understanding” language or capturing “meaning”.
