Linear B is a syllabic script that was used for writing Mycenaean Greek, the earliest confirmed form of Greek. The script predates the Greek alphabet by several centuries. The oldest Mycenaean writing dates to about 1450 BC. It is descended from the older Linear A, an undeciphered earlier script used for writing the Minoan language. It is also the only one of the three "Linears" to be deciphered, by English architect and self-taught linguist Michael Ventris. The script was discovered by…
Genealogists photograph tombstones to document the birth, death and burial information of their ancestors. This post will give you some tips on how to get the best possible results when taking those important pictures. Locating Cemeteries Your first challenge might well be just getting to the cemetery. Hopefully you have an obituary or burial record for your ancestor that gives the name of the cemetery. Depending on how old the record is, finding the cemetery can be very easy or impossible.…
Related rates are used in a wide variety of different scenarios from finding how large a spill is increasing, to how fast it may take to empty something. Related rates deal with time, usually have two different variables like height, length, radius, or width; and have something that is changing like area, distance, or volume. In order to solve related rates problems you need to be able to recall or have access to basic geometry formulas like circle, cone, cylinder, rectangle, triangle and…
the percentage of rank retained. The criteria to select the cut-off rank $k_{c}$ is based on the observation that $\delta(\hat{k})$ tends to be linear as the contributes of each eigenbackgrounds tend to be equal, i.e. for a fairly uncorrelated noise. Fig.\ref{Sigma_FIG}.b shows the cut-off rank obtained by imposing a tolerance on the second derivative $d^2 \delta/ d \hat{k}^2<10^-3$. For the examples…
The immense history of Greece could not be possible for the impressive and influential city-states located throughout the regions. Mycenae, Knossos, and Troy are three revered and questioned palatial sites that operated in similar and opposing ways. In the late 1800s, three archaeologists excavated their ways into the history books. Sir Arthur Evans became recognized as the British archaeologist who uncovered the palace at Knossos, on the island of Crete in the Aegean Sea. Heinrich Schliemann…
The Minoan Palace and the Micenaean Citadel both have walls that protect them. However, they are both very distinct. Minoan Chronology has two main periods. The “old palace” period lasted from about 1900 to 1700 BCE while the “New Palace” period started around 1700 and it lasted until 1450 BCE. Sir Arthur Evans excavated the complex at Knossos in 1900 CE. The walls of the palace are practically earthquake-proof while the lower walls have dressed stone. Minoans created all kinds of extravagant…
mathematics such as matrix algebra, linear programming and mathematics of finance. Thus, it is perfect to use in the business management field. Not only is Business math a very important type of mathematics but so is Financial Mathematics because they two form important branches of math that are directly applied to business and economics. Examples of these applied math’s that are vital for business are management science, probability theory, time series analysis, linear programming and queuing…
POLC78H3: Political Analysis I - Research Article Review. 1. What is the author(s) trying to explain? What does the author(s) hypothesize? Summarize the central argument of this article in your own words. The Authors are trying to explain the linkage between economic inequality and religiosity (Solt, Frederick et al 2011). Meaning there is an important link between a persons economic status and how religious they are. The Authors hypothesize that the more economic inequality the more likely…
device is capable of testing itself which is known as Built-In Self-Test (BIST). A metric for quality and successful testing is fault coverage. Fault Coverage is the number of stuck at faults detected. In hardware, the implementation of BIST is with a Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) which uses the remainder left in the register. This remainder is called a signature and this technique is called signature analysis. Signature analysis is an efficient technique for compressing the DUT’s output…
by Magnetic sensor which is made up of E-shaped core also primary and secondary windings. Due to presence of rebar output of sensor varies. Rotary encoder is used to measure distance between rebar. Display is used to display results. This is portable device that you have to move on wall or column for desired output. Keywords: Arduino mega, Rotary encoder, Magnetic sensor, SD Card module. I. INTRODUCTION To inspect the rebar using ant non-destructive method has been a challenging task,…
