Human capacity

For reactions involving more than three atoms the number of dimensions required to depict the potential energy surface exceeds human capacity for visualizing the surface. Thus it may be more convenient to consider such reactions as taking place between various moieties that play the same role as the atoms X, Y and Z in the discussion above. 

Human factors Discipline concerned with designing machines, operations, and work environment to match human capacities and limitations. 

At the same time as attributing human capacities to non-human objects, the accounts of actor-network theory strip human actors of important aspects of their agency. What counts as an actant is an effect generated by a network of heterogeneous, interacting materials (Law, 1992, p383, emphasis in original) and... 

Vector control efforts were never fully implemented in Africa, even though that continent bore the greatest burden of disease. Many African countries had neither the infrastructure nor the human capacity to carry out spraying programs systematically and effectively. However, today the infrastructure is better and eradication programs would be more likely to succeed, if they were reinstituted. 

It is not clear whether this deviation from optimality is found in human behavior. Controlled experiments with human subjects are difficult. Also, the human capacity for conscious choice and the complexity of human affairs tend to reduce the importance of purely mechanical reinforcement. Yet to the extent that human behavior is shaped by reinforcement, as suggested by some earlier examples, similar effects may be expected. 

HC1 Permanent human capacities are inadequate (e.g. insufficient strength, height, or eyesight).

Human capacity building and infrastructure development should be encouraged. 

Any representation of chemical structure is thus a complex cipher, allowing our model of structure such brevity as to mask the distinction between the model and the reality of chemical structure. The foregoing evolution of such representations is a testament to both our evolving understanding of structure and the human capacity for encoding any information. In this latter sense, however, chemical structure representation is quite naturally suited to the computer age.

Philosophers from Edmund Burke and Kant to Jean-Fran ois Lyotard and Slavoj Zizek define the sublime in terms of the modern subject . For them, the sublime is a form of intellectual experience, most often produced when the mind witnesses an awe-inspiring object in nature (such as a cragged mountain or a tempestuous ocean), to create horror and wonder, and thereby to chart the borderland between consciousness and the ineffable Sublimity... resides in the human capacity to think beyond the bounds of the given . As a literary critic, however, Longinus defines the sublime in terms of the classical author, and thus he sees the sublime as a textual representation of this philosophical borderland. The sublime is not strictly cognitive but stylistic, the product not only of the mind but also of rhetoric. 

STAMP not only allows consideration of more accident causes than simple component failures, but it also allows more sophisticated analysis of failures and component failure accidents. Component failures may result from inadequate constraints on the manufacturing process inadequate engineering design such as missing or incorrectly implemented fault tolerance lack of correspondence between individual component capacity (including human capacity) and task requirements unhandled environmental disturbances (e.g., electromagnetic interference or EMI) inadequate maintenance physical degradation (wearout) and so on. 

According to Burdea (Burdea and Coiffet 2003), VR applications can be characterized with the 3 I s of Virtual Reality immersion, interaction, and imagination. Immersion to let the user feel to be a part of the actions taking place in the virtual environment, interaction for the response of the VR environment to the given user input, and imagination refers to the human capacity to perceive nonexistent objects.

Limitations in human capacity to perceive, attend to, remember, process, and act upon information. It is associated with lapses of attention, mistaken actions, misperceptions, mistaken priorities, and in some cases willfulness.
