Cliodynamics

Cliodynamics (/ˌkliːoʊdaɪˈnæmɪks/) is a transdisciplinary area of research that integrates cultural evolution, economic history/cliometrics, macrosociology, the mathematical modeling of historical processes during the longue durée, and the construction and analysis of historical databases. Cliodynamics treats history as science. Its practitioners develop theories that explain such dynamical processes as the rise and fall of empires, population booms and busts, and the spread and disappearance of religions. These theories are translated into mathematical models. Finally, model predictions are tested against data. Thus, building and analyzing massive databases of historical and archaeological information is one of the most important goals of cliodynamics. (Wikipedia).

Physics - Thermodynamics 2: Ch 32.7 Thermo Potential (4 of 25) What is Enthalpy?

Visit http://ilectureonline.com for more math and science lectures! In this video I will explain enthalpy which is one of the thermodynamic potential. Enthalpy is the amount of heat (energy) absorbed (required) by the system to cause a change in the system, OR the amount of heat expelled

Introduction to Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry

So far we've learned a lot about general chemistry and organic chemistry, so let's move into inorganic chemistry and organometallic chemistry. In this series we will investigate all the elements on the periodic table that were ignored in organic chemistry, especially the transition metals.

What is thermodynamics?

In the first mini-lecture, we begin by asking ‘what is thermodynamics?’ We understand it as the measurement of the relationship between heat, work, energy and temperature. When considering chemical reactions, we look at the 1st law of thermodynamics, and how this relates to the two differe

Complex Ions, Ligands, & Coordination Compounds, Basic Introduction Chemistry

This chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into complex ions, ligands, and coordination compounds. A complex ion typically consist of a transition metal cation bounded to ligands which can be neutral molecules or ions. The number of ligands attached to the transition met

More Complex Ligands in Organometallic Chemistry

We've covered the basics regarding ligands that can be found in transition metal complexes. But it gets quite a bit trickier than that. What about polyhapto ligands? Bridging ligands? Polydentate ligands? What could all of this mean? Relax, I'll show you! Watch the whole Inorganic/Organom

Foundation: Are We Predictable?

In which Jeff Goldblum, lemmings, and a pixelated photo of Obama help me uncover the mathematical reality of Isaac Asimov’s psychohistory. In his Foundation book series, Asimov invented psychohistory, a scientific description of history that can predict the future. This video asks whether

Coordination Compounds: Geometry and Nomenclature

We have been learning a lot about a wide variety of compounds, but we haven't really looked much at the transition metals. These also form compounds called coordination compounds, and the types of bonds involved in these compounds is quite a bit different from what we are used to, as are t
