abstract conceptualization is another way of looking at things or ideas like no one else does.kind of like taking an idea that everyone else says is crazy and won't workthinking about it and putting into a concept everyone can understand.

What else can I help you with?

How was nanotechnology invented?

Nanotechnology was conceptualized in 1959 when physicist Richard Feynman delivered his famous lecture "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom," envisioning the manipulation of individual atoms and molecules. The field gained momentum in the 1980s with advancements in microscopy techniques, such as scanning tunneling microscopy, which allowed scientists to visualize and manipulate nanoscale materials. Since then, interdisciplinary research has led to the development of various applications across fields like medicine, electronics, and materials science, transforming nanotechnology into a pivotal area of modern science and engineering.


List 4 new inventions designed or ideas of the 1780's?

In the 1780s, several notable inventions emerged, reflecting the era's innovation. The steam engine saw improvements from James Watt, enhancing its efficiency for industrial use. The power loom, invented by Edmund Cartwright in 1785, revolutionized textile manufacturing by automating the weaving process. Additionally, the invention of the modern bicycle, or "dandy horse," by Baron Karl von Drais in 1817, laid the groundwork for future iterations, though it was conceptualized in the late 1780s. Lastly, the first practical version of the safety pin was patented by Walter Hunt in 1849, but the concept was being explored during this decade.


What is the difference between design build construction and construction using plans and specifications?

Great question. Design-build has become synonymous with fast tracking a project. This is a false understanding of the reasoning behind design-build. In a regular project or type of construction, there are a set of plans with all of the required engineering. This means that the total project has been conceptualized and planed, down to the fine details. In design build project an architects concept has been drawn. Most design build projects stop here and get a permit so that the owners time tables can be met. While construction begins, engineering is continuing, and we tend to call it a design build project. All of the engineering comes latter for times sake. More of a fast track than a design build. In a real design build project the architect's concept is there but the engineering is in question as to how the project will actually work. Most have some, if not all of the required engineering, or at least an overall concept of the engineering plan that include drawings and details. The reasoning for design build is that the engineering concepts are only that, concepts, and have not been actually proven in other than theory, or not to the scales that they are being implimented in the project. Engineering details may change with actual numbers and this is foreseen or planed. The reason for design build is that there are expected changes or unanswered questions in the engineering that can not be fully answered until the building is to the point in construction that the engineer can make a full determination or actual measurements, loads and/or calculations. Others may (and will) disagree, but this is my understanding of the true meaning of DESIGN-BUILD. ! Terry
