Non-Nominal Quantification --Name Index --BibliographyA Chance for Possibility defends the view that the objective modal realm is tripartite: truths about possible worlds supervene on modal truths, which in turn supervene on truths about objective chances. An understanding of supervenience in terms of grounding is developed which - unlike the standard modal characterization - allows the question of what modal truths supervene on to have a non-trivial answer. Relying on this understanding, a negative result is established: modal truths do not supervene on truths about possible worlds, whether possible worlds are conceived of as Lewisian concreta or as abstract objects of some kind. Instead, a conception of pleonastic possible worlds is developed that reverses the direction of supervenience. On the basis of linguistic considerations concerning our use of natural language 'might' and 'might have' sentences, Steinberg finally argues that truths about objective chances are able to provide a supervenience base for modal truths. A Chance for Possibility is an investigation in analytic metaphysics, drawing on related work in the philosophy of logic and language as well as linguistics. It provides a detailed case study for the fruitful use of a notion of grounding in the clarification and evaluation of longstanding philosophical issues.Philosophische Analyse ;Bd. 51.Modality (Logic)PossibilityRealismSupervenience (Philosophy)Electronic books.Modality (Logic)Possibility.Realism.Supervenience (Philosophy)160Steinberg Alexander1979-1026550MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463852503321A chance for possibility2441509UNINA01264nam 2200433 450 991079750590332120200520144314.02-84450-822-7(CKB)3710000000480498(MiAaPQ)EBC4412940(Au-PeEL)EBL4412940(CaPaEBR)ebr11293078(OCoLC)962152861(PPN)187267200(EXLCZ)99371000000048049820161108h20082008 uy 0freurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierDes indesirables a la Desirade histoire de la deportation de mauvais sujets, 1763-1767 /Eric FougereMatoury, French Guiana :Ibis Rouge Editions,2008.©20081 online resource (136 pages)Collection Espace outre-mer2-84450-322-5 Collection Espace outre-mer.Exile (Punishment)Exile (Punishment)364.68Fougère Éric615052MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797505903321Des indesirables a la Desirade3740633UNINA02006nam 2200409z- 450 9910346860803321202102111000036144(CKB)4920000000101908(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/42576(oapen)doab42576(EXLCZ)99492000000010190820202102d2013 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierCAE - PROCESS AND NETWORK : A methodology for continuous product validation process based on network of various digital simulation methodsKIT Scientific Publishing20131 online resource (XX, 203 p. p.)Reihe Informationsmanagement im Engineering Karlsruhe / Hrsg.: Karlsruher Institut für Technologie, Institut für Informationsmanagement im Ingenieurwesen (IMI)3-7315-0090-6 CAE ProNet methodology is to develop CAE network considering interdependencies among digital validations. Utilizing CAE network and considering industrial requirements, an algorithm is applied to execute a product, vehicle development phase, and load case priority oriented CAE process. Major advantage of this research work is to improve quality of simulation results, reducing time-to-market and decreasing dependencies on hardware prototype.CAE - PROCESS AND NETWORKTechnology: general issuesbicsscCAE-NetworkCAE-ProcessCAE-ProNet ApplicationMultiphysics SimulationSimulation Data ManagementTechnology: general issuesSyal Gaganauth1290814BOOK9910346860803321CAE - PROCESS AND NETWORK : A methodology for continuous product validation process based on network of various digital simulation methods3021632UNINA
