Proportional representation

increasing the figure-of-merit Z of thermoelectric materials which is proportional to the Seebeck coefficient S and inversely proportional to the thermal conductivity κ1). Hence, it is clear that the thermoelectric power generator efficiency strongly depends on the material parameters such as Seebeck coefficient, thermal…

The few minorities that do indeed make into power positions are held up as poster children for minority upward mobility in a effort to sell the unrealistic ideology while simultaneously vilifying for not working hard enough. A lack of minority representation is not only a problem in the upper…

A comparative study of Metropolis (Fritz Lang, 1927) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (George Orwell, 1948) sheds light on ideas about progress in the first half of the twentieth century to a large extent. Both texts challenge the vision of “a future society unbelievably rich, leisured, orderly and efficient.” Due to their different contexts, each text presents a different perspective on the issues of the use of social manipulation to achieve progress, and the loss of humanity in relation to the pursuit…

Participants and Procedures Acknowledging that drawing a sample from the general population may be impractical, costly, and time consuming the study will seek to obtain a representative subset (sample) of the population to investigate and make generalizations about the link between the categories of citizenship norms and the utilization of ICTs to politically engage. The population of interest consists of U.S. citizens aged twenty to thirty years old. The group was chosen to avoid any age…

Throughout history art has been a medium of delivery for meaning, messages, emotion, and religion; just to name a few. From Egyptian hieroglyphics to the political propaganda of the 20th century, art has delivered a wide variety of meaning to their interpreters. However, the depth of the meaning of art would be undecipherable without the several key elements and principles of art. That being said, it is crucial for one to understand the various aspects of an art piece in order to decipher the…

Kevin Du Revolt and Revolution in Early Modern Europe Due 4/20/24. Before the French Revolution was the Ancien Regime, lasting from the 15th century to 1789. Seignorialism, absolutist monarchy, and social hierarchy characterized this era of France. Seignorialism was a nonreciprocal relationship between peasants and landowners, with the landowners doing nothing for the peasants but providing land to farm on. Furthermore, the king of France held almost unlimited power over his subjects, causing…

The French and American revolutions were similar due to the fact that both were against longstanding European monarchies. While a key difference is that the French were revolting against their monarchy due to a feeling of unfair treatment of the population. The populations of both countries were revolting in protest to the treatment of the people and the taxes that were levied against them. The French revolution started in 1789 and lasted until the 1790s, during this time the French citizens…

enacted into law but because the British government took very stringent strides in enforcing it. Colonial ships could constantly be stopped and searched for smuggled goods. As a reaction, the colonists rallied against and noised “taxation without representation” throughout the colonies born through the philosophies of James Otis and Samuel…

Manpower (MOM) predicted that men earn 30% more than women in blue collar industries, even with the same qualifications and working hours. Disparity in income between genders can cause a myriad of problems. In Singapore, one’s income is directly proportional to one’s Central…

Occupational biomechanical models are representations of the musculoskeletal systems and its functions. Modeling occupational biomechanical systems are significant to the study of occupational biomechanics because each model can be used to mimic actual behavior of the body. We are able to deduct from these models, how components will behave with load interaction, and predict human performance under varying scenarios to avoid injury in the workplace. In order to accurately analyze various work…
