Seite 32 - I believe, form regular ripple-mark, yet it may increase the area over which it is to be found. Regular ripple-mark is formed by water which oscillates relatively to the bottom. A pair of vortices, or in some cases four vortices, are established in the water ; each set of vortices corresponds to a single ripple-crest and the vortices oscillate about a mean position, changing their shapes and intensities periodically, but not with a simple harmonic motion.
Seite 456 - To the King's Most Excellent Majesty. " THE humble Address of the President, Council, and Fellows of the Royal Society of London for improving Natural Knowledge.
Seite 215 - ... choice made of the initial conditions of motion. The mechanical system is a generalized one, but it belongs to the domain of real dynamics. Let us consider the general problem of the motion of a rigid body under the action of any forces, in the non-Euclidian space whose absolute is the surfaC6: 3?+y*+*-t* = 0.

Seite 55 - I have found it best to prepare very concentrated active extracts of the purified seeds, so that it should only be necessary to add a very small quantity of the extract in order to coagulate the milk and obtain a colourless curd. This I have done by grinding the •dry seeds very finely in a mill and extracting them for twenty-four hours with such a volume of 5 per cent, sodic chloride solution that the mass is still fluid after the absorption of water by the fragments of the seeds as they swell...
Seite 32 - The formation of irregular ripple-marks or dunes by a current is due to the vortex which exists on the lee of any superficial inequality of the bottom ; the direct current carries the sand up the weather slope and the vortex up the lee slope. Thus any existing inequalities are increased, and the surface of sand becomes mot led over with irregular dunes.
Seite 72 - Thomson has propounded conceptions which belong to the prtma philosophia of physical science, and will assuredly lead the physicist of the future to attempt once more to grapple with those problems concerning the ultimate construction of the material world, which Descartes and Leibnitz attempted to solve, but which have been ignored by most of their successors. One Royal Medal has been awarded to Dr. T. Archer Hirst, FRS, for his investigations in pure geometry ; and, more particularly, for his researches...
