Normality condition in elasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Strong local minimizers with surfaces of gradient discontinuity appear in variational problems when the energy density function is not rank-one convex. In this paper we show that stability of such surfaces is related to stability outside the surface via ...

On the ‘most normal’ normal

open access: yesCommunications in Numerical Methods in Engineering, 2007
AbstractGiven a set of normals in ℛ3, two algorithms are presented to compute the ‘most normal’ normal. The ‘most normal’ normal is the normal that minimizes the maximal angle with the given set of normals. A direct application is provided supposing a surface triangulation is available.

The normal range: it is not normal and it is not a range [PDF]

open access: yesPostgraduate Medical Journal, 2018
AbstractThe NHS ‘Choose Wisely’ campaign places greater emphasis on the clinician-patient dialogue. Patients are often in receipt of their laboratory data and want to know whether they are normal. But what is meant by normal? Comparator data, to a measured value, are colloquially known as the ‘normal range’.

The DSM: Mindful Science or Mindless Power? A critical review

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
In this paper we review the DSM, its scientific bases and utility. The concepts of normality, pathology and boundaries between them are critically reviewed.

Assumptions for well-known statistical techniques: Disturbing explanations for why they are seldom checked

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2012
A valid interpretation of most statistical techniques requires that the criteria for one or more assumptions are met. In published articles, however, little information tends to be reported on whether the data satisfy the assumptions underlying the ...

A Urysohn lemma for regular spaces

open access: yesApplied General Topology, 2022
Using the concept of m-open sets, M-regularity and M-normality are introduced and investigated. Both these notions are closed under arbitrary product. M-normal spaces are found to satisfy a result similar to Urysohn lemma.

Normalizers of system normalizers [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1964
1. The normalizers of the system normalizers are subgroups of some importance in the theory of solvable groups initiated by P. Hall [1-5]. For example, P. Hall observed [4] that a system normalizer was contained in the hypercenter of its norm lizer. R.

Anti-humanism of the human rights ideology [PDF]

open access: yesSociološki Pregled, 2000
How can we say that the ideology of human rights is not human? Yes, we can say that, because the human rights of one person usually stay in confrontation with the human rights of some other person.

Cantor Series Constructions Contrasting Two Notions of Normality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A. R\'enyi \cite{Renyi} made a definition that gives a generalization of simple normality in the context of $Q$-Cantor series. In \cite{Mance}, a definition of $Q$-normality was given that generalizes the notion of normality in the context of $Q$-Cantor ...
