“Imaging is still in its early days, but we are transitioning from a descriptive to a more mechanistic type of study.”
Dr. Klaas Stephan
“We have two approaches in our research - the empirical model and the mechanistic model. The empirical model generates life prediction from accelerated degradation test data, while the mechanistic model relates life prediction to changes in battery materials. Our approach provides an independent measure of battery life so we don't have to rely on what battery manufacturers tell us.”
Dan Doughty
“Your description should include detailed directions on how to execute the prank, its intended response, and any props necessary to pulling it off. Keep it clean -- the focus of the contest is good humor and fun.”
Valerie Pontbriand
“To give an accurate description of what has never occurred is not merely the proper occupation of the historian, but the inalienable privilege of any man of parts and culture.”
Oscar Wilde
“The description is not the described; I can describe the mountain, but the description is not the mountain, and if you are caught up in the description, as most people are, then you will never see the mountain”
Jiddu Krishnamurti
“Even for the physicist the description in plain language will be a criterion of the degree of understanding that has been reached.”
Werner Karl Heisenberg
“Sainthood emerges when you can listen to someone's tale of woe and not respond with a description of your own.”
