The Hardness of Hard Treatment [PDF]
, 1998 Abstract In February, 1996, Rosemary West was convicted of ten murders of young women, including a daughter and stepdaughter. The British public were shocked by the gruesome details as they gradually unfolded. West (whose co-defendant husband committed suicide in custody) was sentenced to life imprisonment on each count.

A model of hardness and fracture toughness of solids
Journal of Applied Physics, 2019Hardness and fracture toughness are some of the most important mechanical properties. Here, we propose a simple model that uses only the elastic properties to calculate the hardness and fracture toughness. Its accuracy is checked by comparison with other

Proceedings. Thirteenth Annual IEEE Conference on Computational Complexity (Formerly: Structure in Complexity Theory Conference) (Cat. No.98CB36247), 2000
We study the set of incompressible strings for various resource bounded versions of Kolmogorov complexity. The resource bounded versions of Kolmogorov complexity we study are polynomial time CD complexity defined by Sipser, the nondeterministic variant CND due to Buhrman and Fortnow, and the polynomial space bounded Kolmogorov complexity CS introduced ...

Conditional Hardness Results for Massively Parallel Computation from Distributed Lower Bounds
IEEE Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science, 2019We present the first conditional hardness results for massively parallel algorithms for some central graph problems including (approximating) maximum matching, vertex cover, maximal independent set, and coloring.

Thermodynamic hardness and the maximum hardness principle
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2017An alternative definition of hardness (called the thermodynamic hardness) within the grand canonical ensemble formalism is proposed in terms of the partial derivative of the electronic chemical potential with respect to the thermodynamic chemical potential of the reservoir, keeping the temperature and the external potential constant.

Hard facts for hard science [PDF]
Physics World, 1998 Here are two related problems. First, the number of applicants to UK university courses in the physical sciences has fallen by 26% over the last three years. Second, there is an increasing tide of opinion – not only among opinion-formers, but also among those who set research priorities – that the future of physics in the 21st century lies in its role ...

Practice Nursing, 1998
Some evenings ago there was a TV programme on the problems of substance abuse amongst doctors. It highlighted the manner in which their addictions had been hidden from colleagues and the horrendous dangers their patients were exposed to. Nurses also have amongst their number those who use addictive and performance diminishing drugs.

Alkalinity and Hardness: Critical but Elusive Concepts in Aquaculture
, 2016Total alkalinity and total hardness are familiar variables in aquatic animal production. Aquaculturists—both scientists and practitioners alike—have some understanding of the two variables and of methods for adjusting their concentrations.

Hard Instances of Hard Problems
2000This paper investigates the instance complexities of problems that are hard or weakly hard for exponential time under polynomial time, many-one reductions. It is shown that almost every instance of almost every problem in exponential time has essentially maximal instance complexity.

To the Editor.— The medical profession is under attack—hard cases—and unless it cleans its own house, the public will do so for it—bad law. I want to clarify, if possible, the scrambling of the use of the aphorism, in which "hard cases" means hard because of judicial sympathy for one of the parties, and in which "bad law" means a precedent that, if ...
