Archimedes Archimedes Zelf was hij vooral geboeid door de zuivere wiskunde, met name de meetkunde en door de natuurkunde. Hij berekende met de zogenaamde 'uitputtingsmethode' (een voorloper van het integreren) de oppervlakte en de inhoud van allerlei vlakke en ruimtelijke objecten. Maar het bekendst is hij tegenwoordig door de wet van Archimedes (over voorwerpen die in vloeistof zijn ondergedompeld). Archimedes werd in 212 v.Chr. door de Romeinen vermoord tijdens de verovering van Syracuse. >> De tijd van Archimedes >> Het leven van Archimedes >> Het werk van Archimedes >> Over Archimedes ... >> Archimedes over de bol en de cilinder Kijk verder bij >> Encyclopaedia Britannica Syracuse en het begin van het Romeinse Rijk 270 - 215 v.Chr.: Regering van Hieroon II van Syracuse. 264 - 238 v.Chr.: De Eerste Punische Oorlog. 211 v.Chr.: De verovering van Syracuse door de Romeinen. 219 - 201 v.Chr.: De Tweede Punische Oorlog. >>Terug ... Over Archimedes Hoewel Archimedes veel roem oogstte met zijn machines vond hij dat zuivere wiskunde de enige wetenschap was die de moeite van het bestuderen waard was. Hij was vooral gefascineerd door de meetkunde, zelfs zo erg dat hij ook tijdens gewone dagelijkse bezigheden als eten, in bad gaan en dergelijke voortdurend geometrische figuren tekende en bestudeerde.

Het is een voorloper van het 'integreren' wat wij tegenwoordig toepassen.

Our Inspiration ARCHIMEDES "Give me a point of support and I will move the earth." Born in 287 B.C. in Syracuse, a Greek seaport colony in Sicily, Archimedes is considered to be one of the greatest mathematicians of all time. Known as 'the wise one' or 'the master', he was often called to the service of Kings Hiero and Gelon, who considered him a trusted friend. Archimedes was also a friend of Eratosthenes, who measured the radius of the earth. Ask the scientist? Why does my bath overflow? Who is the strongest man on Earth? Curriculum Vitae 287 B.C.

He discovered the relation between the surface and volume of a sphere and its circumscribing cyclinder (he had discovered pi). He then formulated a hydrostatic principle based on that mathmatical relationship called Archimedes' principle. He inventing the Archimedes screw - a screw-shaped machine or hydraulic screw that raised water from a lower to a higher level. Archimedes also invented the catupult, the lever, the compound pulley, and the burning mirror (a system of mirrors that burned the boots and ships of invading armies by focusing the sun's rays). Although Archimedes is credited with inventing the screw in the 3rd century BC, his screw was not like today's screw fastener but actually two other screw-type devices.

Archimedes Scientists Home Page Anaxagoras Aristarchus Eratosthenes ... Pythagoras The brilliant Greek scientist Archimedes was born in Syracuse, Sicily in 287 B.C. His best-known invention was a machine for raising water, called Archimedes' screw. He is also famous for his work on buoyancy, or floating bodies, which led him to develop Archimedes' principle. Archimedes' many mechanical inventions and war machines made him popular in his day. Archimedes' screw, for example, was used for raising water from ditches and emptying flooded ships. Archimedes also studied how levers worked and how geometry could be used to measure circles. Archimedes' war machines held off Roman attacks for three years, but in 212 B.C. Syracuse was captured, and Archimedes was killed by a Roman soldier.

Archimedes (c.290/280 BC - 212/211 BC) Archimedes was born and mainly lived in Syracuse on the eastern coast of Sicily. He is believed to have been close to Hieron II, King of Syracuse, who tried to encourage Archimedes to use his extraordinary talents for practical purposes. The King had commissioned a gold wreath that he wished to consecrate to the gods. When the wreath was delivered, it weighed the correct amount for which he had been charged. However, he was concerned that some of the gold had been replaced by an equal weight of a metal of lesser value, such as silver or lead. Because of its consecrated nature, dissection or analysis was impossible. Archimedes was presumably pondering this quandary while visiting the public baths in Syracuse. As he sank into the bath, water overflowed: the further he sank, the more water poured out. Upon realising that the amount of water displaced was a direct measure of his volume, legend has it that he leapt from the bath and ran, naked and dripping, to the King, repeatedly shouting 'Eureka' (I have found it). He knew that if he immersed the crown in water and measured the overflow, he could find its volume. Whatever its shape, if the crown were pure gold it should have an equal volume to an equal weight of pure gold, whatever shape that had. When Archimedes measured the volume of the crown it was greater than the volume of a kilo of gold, and Hieron saw that he had been cheated.

Home Archimedes Essay written by Anonymous Few certain details remain about the life of antiquity’s greatest mathematician, Archimedes. We know he was born in 287 B.C.E. around Syracuse from a report about 1400 years after the fact. Archimedes tells about his father, Pheidias, in his book The Sandreckoner. Pheidias was an astronomer, who was famous for being the author of a treatise on the diameters of the sun and the moon. Historians speculate that Pheidias’ profession explains why Archimedes chose his career. Some scholars have characterized Archimedes as an aristocrat who actively participated in the Syracusan court and may have been related to the ruler of Syracuse, King Hieron II. We also know Archimedes died in 212 B.C.E. at the age of 75 in Syracuse. It is said that he was killed by a Roman soldier, who was offended by Achimedes, while the Romans seized Syracuse. There are three main mechanical inventions credited to Archimedes. The first one is the Archimedean screw which supposedly could serve as a water pump. The second invention was the compound pulley. The third invention was the way of finding the volume of something by displacement as demonstrated in the story above. Most historians would agree that more important than his great mechanical inventions were his mathematical discoveries. The mathematical works that have been presented to us by Archimedes could be classified into three groups. The first group consists of works that have as their major objective the proof of theorems relative to the areas and volumes of figures bounded by curved lines and surfaces. The second category contains works that lead to a geometrical analysis of statical and hydrostatical problems and the use of statics in geometry. Miscellaneous mathematical works make up the third group.

92. Thomistic Philosophy - The Philosophy Thomas Aquinas Introduction to the philosophical thought of Thomas Aquinas. Includes links to other sites specific to Aquinas and his works. http://www.aquinasonline.com/

Thomistic Philosophy is inspired by the philosophical methods and principles used by Thomas Aquinas (1224/5-1274), a Dominican Friar and Theologian , in his explanation of the Catholic faith. Aquinas, who is most renowned for his Five Ways of Proving the Existence of God , believed that both faith and reason discover truth, a conflict between them being impossible since they both originate in God. Believing that reason can, in principle, lead the mind to God, Aquinas defended reason's legitimacy, especially in the works of Aristotle. The philosophy of Aquinas continues to offer insights into many lingering problems in Metaphysics, the Philosophy of Mind, Philosophy of Religion and Ethics.
