Danish Language
Danish (; , ) is a North Germanic language spoken by about six million people, principally in and around Denmark. Communities of Danish speakers are also found in Greenland, the Faroe Islands, and the northern German region of Southern Schleswig, where it has minority language status. Minor Danish-speaking communities are also found in Norway, Sweden, the United States, Canada, Brazil, and Argentina. Along with the other North Germanic languages, Danish is a descendant of Old Norse, the common language of the Germanic peoples who lived in Scandinavia during the Viking Era. Danish, together with Swedish, derives from the ''East Norse'' dialect group, while the Middle Norwegian language (before the influence of Danish) and Norwegian Bokmål are classified as ''West Norse'' along with Faroese and Icelandic. A more recent classification based on mutual intelligibility separates modern spoken Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish as "mainland (or ''continental'') Scandinavian", while I ...

UCPH Department Of Geosciences And Natural Resource Management
The UCPH Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management (Institut for Geovidenskab og Naturforvaltning - IGN) is a department under the Faculty of Science at University of Copenhagen (UCPH). History In 2007, the Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University, KVL, merged into the University of Copenhagen, becoming the Faculty of Life Sciences. Departments were not changed until 2012, when the Faculty of Life Sciences was split up and merged with the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences. The merger of faculties also brought along a restructuring and merger of several departments. IGN was newly established out of the main part of the Department for Forest, Landscape and Planning and the Department for Geography and Geology. Both departments have been results of mergers a few years earlier. The Department of Geography and Geology was established in 2007 by merging the two, former separate departments at the University of Copenhagen. The Departmen ...

Machine Saw
A machine is a physical system using power to apply forces and control movement to perform an action. The term is commonly applied to artificial devices, such as those employing engines or motors, but also to natural biological macromolecules, such as molecular machines. Machines can be driven by animals and people, by natural forces such as wind and water, and by chemical, thermal, or electrical power, and include a system of mechanisms that shape the actuator input to achieve a specific application of output forces and movement. They can also include computers and sensors that monitor performance and plan movement, often called mechanical systems. Renaissance natural philosophers identified six simple machines which were the elementary devices that put a load into motion, and calculated the ratio of output force to input force, known today as mechanical advantage. Modern machines are complex systems that consist of structural elements, mechanisms and control compone ...
