Problem-solving nature

Transform engineering education to emphasise the social relevance and problem-solving nature of engineering. 

IDD is a useful area for development because of the problem solving nature of the process thast requires numerous informed decisions. 

Perhaps the most inipoilant job that the engineer faces on a day-to-day basis is the need to solve problems. Several problem solving approaches arc presented in Part IV in an attempt to identify hazards (particularly of an accidental nature). These problem solving methods include, but are not limited to ... 

Well-defined reaction and catalytic systems enable the development of fundamental knowledge that helps in with long term and more exhaustive problem solving possibilities. Thus the debate is not whether studies on model compounds are useful or not, but the choice of model compounds themselves. These should represent the nature and characteristic of the biomass fraction that one is studying. Not surprisingly, efforts to identify representative model compounds are gaining attention. 4-Hydroxyphenylpropane derivatives such as coniferyl, cou-... 

In distinguishing physicists and chemists on the basis of the identity criterion of values and problems, it is appropriate to emphasize the molecule as the heart of the chemists problem-solving concerns. Historically, the chemist s molecules have differed from the physicist s objects of study not just in linear scale but in the multifunctionality of the chemical molecule s character and behavior and in its capacity for generating wholly new objects, in addition to moving through space. The natural history tradition of chemistry is just as important as its natural philosophy tradition. 

Assuming uniform prior probabilities, we maximise S subject to these constraints. This is a standard variation problem solved by the use of Lagrangian multipliers. A numerical solution using standard variation methods gives i.p6j=. 05435, 0.07877, 0.11416, 0.16545, 0.23977, 0.34749 with an entropy of 1.61358 natural units. 

Suppose that a woman has a positive mammogram. What is the probability that she in fact has breast cancer To solve this problem statisticians use Bayes Theorem, a theorem in conditional probability introduced by the non-conformist minister the Reverend Thomas Bayes in 1763. Gigerenzer explains how Bayes theorem works by converting the problem into natural frequencies. ...
