Origami Flowers and Other Models
Author: Yehuda PeledPublisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1312820705
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Origami Flowers and Other Models contains 34 origami models: Twenty one of them are flowers, trees and stems. The models range from easy to fold models, suitable for beginners using simple origami paper, to complex models for the more experiences folders, using heavier paper. Some of the complex models the author has created represent realistic examples of the flowers which grew wild in fields near his childhood home: irises, tulips, daffodils, and cyclamens. The book also provides instructions for stems which allow the flowers to stand independently on the table without additional non-origami parts. At the end of the book there are useful instructions for folding polygons and for dividing paper.
Through the Models of Writing

ISBN: 9401008043
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
This book provides both young and senior scientists with a comparative view of current theoretical models of text production. Models are clearly situated in their historical context, scrutinized in their further evolution with a fine-grained observation of differences between models. Very complete and informative to read, this book will be useful to people working in teaching of writing or studying this specific human activity.

Game Equilibrium Models I

Pages : 338
Book Description
There are two main approaches towards the phenotypic analysis of frequency dependent natural selection. First, there is the approach of evolutionary game theory, which was introduced in 1973 by John Maynard Smith and George R. Price. In this theory, the dynamical process of natural selection is not modeled explicitly. Instead, the selective forces acting within a population are represented by a fitness function, which is then analysed according to the concept of an evolutionarily stable strategy or ESS. Later on, the static approach of evolutionary game theory has been complemented by a dynamic stability analysis of the replicator equations. Introduced by Peter D. Taylor and Leo B. Jonker in 1978, these equations specify a class of dynamical systems, which provide a simple dynamic description of a selection process. Usually, the investigation of the replicator dynamics centers around a stability analysis of their stationary solutions. Although evolutionary stability and dynamic stability both intend to characterize the long-term outcome of frequency dependent selection, these concepts differ considerably in the 'philosophies' on which they are based. It is therefore not too surprising that they often lead to quite different evolutionary predictions (see, e. g. , Weissing 1983). The present paper intends to illustrate the incongruities between the two approaches towards a phenotypic theory of natural selection. A detailed game theoretical and dynamical analysis is given for a generic class of evolutionary normal form games.
