Conceptual Foundations of Special and General Relativity

, 1999
The k-calculus was advocated by Hermann Bondi as a means of explaining special relativity using only GCSE level mathematics and ideas. We review the central derivations, using proofs which are only a little more elegant than those in Bondi's books, and extend his development to include the scalar product and the mass shell condition.

Relatividade Ontológica e Subdeterminação; Naturalismo e Pirronismo

DoisPontos, 2007
Quine's thesis of ontological relativity is certainly one of the better known aspects of his work. However, it is rarely remarked that his conception of under-determination changed throughout his work, and that this considerably alters some key ...

A Conceptual Framework of Visiting Friends and Relatives

Journal of Tourismology, 2018
Because of long working hours and the perplexity brought about by city life, individuals have less time to devote to their family and friends. This means that they want to spend their leisure time with them. Individuals visit their friends and relatives as a means of socio-cultural life. As a result, new travel / tourism types such as “Visiting Friends

A Conceptual Exploration of Relativity, Mass, and Consciousness

International Journal For Multidisciplinary Research
Albert Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity establishes an absolute speed limit in nature: no physical entity possessing mass can attain or exceed the speed of light. This constraint arises from the intrinsic relationship between mass and energy, formalized in the equation E = mc².

Conceptual Relativity Meets Realism in Metaphysics

European Journal of Analytic Philosophy, 2017
The paper adresses the relationship between ontological realism and Putnam’s thesis of conceptual relativity. The paper divides into three parts. The first part aims to reconstruct the notion of conceptual relativity, focusing on Putnam’s example involving mereological principles of individuation of objects.
