Four forces and spinor connection in general relativity

Physical Review D, 1985
This work is an extension of the recent spinor-connection theory of Szekeres, Cullinan, and Lynch. In that theory, a geometric model for the gravitational and electromagnetic fields was realized by use of both left- and right-connection groups acting on a 4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}4 spinor tetrad. Here the right-connection group is enlarged in

Smart cities: A conjuncture of four forces

Cities, 2015
Despite the ongoing discussion of the recent years, there is no agreed definition of a ‘smart city’, while strategic planning in this field is still largely unexplored. Inspired by this, the purpose of this paper was to identify the forces shaping the smart city conception and, by doing so, to begin replacing the currently abstract image of what it ...

Four forces of supply chain social sustainability adoption in emerging economies

International Journal of Production Economics, 2018
Abstract Despite the growing stakeholder awareness on social sustainability issues, little is known about what influences firms to adopt social sustainability in their supply chain management practices and the benefits gained from such efforts. This is especially true for emerging economies in Asia and Southwestern Europe, where the social norms ...

Intercultural competences and interaction schemes — Four forces regulating dyadic encounters in international business

Industrial Marketing Management, 2015
Abstract Intercultural competences are highly valued in international business (IB) as antecedents to building trust, whereas a lack of them and problems concerning cultural sensitivity have been identified as major reasons for failure. And yet, there is very little research on trust building and interaction on the level of the individual ...

Validation of the Generalized Force Fields GAFF, CGenFF, OPLS-AA, and PRODRGFF by Testing Against Experimental Osmotic Coefficient Data for Small Drug-Like Molecules

Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling, 2019
Accurate force field parameters for proteins and drugs are of fundamental importance for predicting protein-drug binding poses and binding free energies in structure-based drug design.

Unification of the Four Forces

1992
Let us briefly review the properties of the four forces before we return to the unification attempts. The four forces of nature show a large variation in properties, their effective range and strength.

Symmetric chaos in systems of three and four forced oscillators

Nonlinearity, 1990
This paper is a presentation of the results from an experimental investigation into the dynamics of three and four symmetrically coupled identical electronic oscillators. The attractors for a variety of different parameter values are displayed, and their structure is explained in terms of dynamical systems theory concepts.
