By D. R. Axelrad
This newest quantity within the Foundations & Philosophy of technology & expertise sequence presents an account of probabilistic useful research and indicates its applicability within the formula of the behaviour of discrete media with the inclusion of microstructural results. even if quantum mechanics have lengthy been famous as a stochastic conception, the creation of probabilistic innovations and rules to classical mechanics has usually now not been tried. during this research the writer takes the view that the numerous box amounts of a discrete medium are random variables or capabilities of such variables. accordingly the probabilistic mechanics of discrete media are in line with the mathematical concept of chance and the axiomatics of degree conception.
