Abels Shipbuilders
Abels Shipbuilders Ltd was a ship and boat builder in Bristol, England. In addition to boat building, the company branched out into architectural sculptures, tidal energy and marine restoration, but closed in 2016. Business Founded in 1980 by David Abels, the company took over part of the Albion Dockyard formerly occupied by Charles Hill & Sons who went out of business in 1977. The site includes the large covered dry dock originally built by Hilhouse in 1820, and has a capacity of 350 tonnes. The company built a wide variety of vessels up to 250 gt and in length in steel and aluminium, typically tugs, passenger and Roll-on/roll-off ferries, survey vessels, launches and work boats. Around 80% of orders were for UK customers although the company also delivered aluminium patrol and ambulance boats to Nigeria. The company also built Pero's Bridge (the horned foot bridge) which opened in 1999. Later work included a 180gt, 250-passenger catamaran for Clyde Marine and the reb ...

Earl Abel's
Earl Abel's is a popular restaurant in San Antonio, Texas that opened in 1933 and existed at one location at Broadway and Hildebrand from 1940 until 2006. It has been popular for its diverse menu ranging from Fried Chicken and Rainbow Trout to its selection of desserts including German chocolate cake and lemon meringue pie; its clientele included the well-to-do from nearby Alamo Heights, businessmen and politicians including Congressman Henry B. Gonzalez who got in a fist fight at the restaurant in 1986 with a fellow customer who called him a communist, as well as many U.S. Army personnel stationed at nearby Fort Sam Houston. History After founding a chain of restaurants in San Antonio in 1933, Earl Abel decided to close most of his restaurants due to labor shortages during World War II, leaving the remaining location at the corner of Broadway and Hildebrand Avenue as a landmark on a portion of the city's inner northside, now the city's Midtown District.

Abels Moving Services
Abels Moving Services is a UK-based moving company specialising in domestic and international relocation. The removal and storage company has its headquarters in Brandon, Suffolk, with facilities in London, Cambridge, Daventry covering the whole of the UK. It became the first removals firm to be granted a Royal Warrant in 1989, ''by appointment to HM the Queen for removals and storage services''. , the company still holds this warrant. History Established in Norfolk in the UK in 1958, Abels was initially an offshoot from the Abels family auctioneering business. The firm became known as Abels of Watton, initially only based in the town, but subsequently opening depots in Huntingdon, St Albans, Colchester and Brandon, Suffolk. In 1991, the Abel family sold the business to Hays plc, and then in 1998 a management buyout returned Abels to independent ownership. Abels was a shareholder in UniGroup Worldwide UTS which at the end of 2015 changed to become Harmony Relocation a compa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Abel's Theorem
In mathematics, Abel's theorem for power series relates a limit of a power series to the sum of its coefficients. It is named after Norwegian mathematician Niels Henrik Abel. Theorem Let the Taylor series G (x) = \sum_^\infty a_k x^k be a power series with real coefficients a_k with radius of convergence 1. Suppose that the series \sum_^\infty a_k converges. Then G(x) is continuous from the left at x = 1, that is, \lim_ G(x) = \sum_^\infty a_k. The same theorem holds for complex power series G(z) = \sum_^\infty a_k z^k, provided that z \to 1 entirely within a single ''Stolz sector'', that is, a region of the open unit disk where , 1-z, \leq M(1-, z, ) for some fixed finite M > 1. Without this restriction, the limit may fail to exist: for example, the power series \sum_ \frac n converges to 0 at z = 1, but is unbounded near any point of the form e^, so the value at z = 1 is not the limit as z tends to 1 in the whole open disk. Note that G(z) is continuous on the real clo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Abel's Island
''Abel's Island'' is a children's novel written and illustrated by William Steig. It won a Newbery Honor. It was published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, Toronto, Ontario in 1976. It is a survival story about a mouse stranded on an island. Plot summary The story is set in the fictional town of Mossville, which is inhabited by civilized anthropomorphic animals, such as mice, rabbits, toads and so on. As the book begins, Abel, a mouse, is enjoying a picnic with his wife Amanda, but they are interrupted by a fierce rainstorm and are forced to take shelter in a cave nearby. The two are separated when Abel braves the storm to retrieve Amanda's scarf, blown away by a gust of wind. The storm washes Abel into a river and he is swept downstream until he is stranded on an island. Abel attempts to escape the island several times, but fails, and finally realizes that he must survive on the island by himself. He finds a log and makes it his home in the winter. To ease his loneliness, he cr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Abel's Test
In mathematics, Abel's test (also known as Abel's criterion) is a method of testing for the convergence of an infinite series. The test is named after mathematician Niels Henrik Abel. There are two slightly different versions of Abel's test – one is used with series of real numbers, and the other is used with power series in complex analysis. Abel's uniform convergence test is a criterion for the uniform convergence of a series of functions dependent on parameters. Abel's test in real analysis Suppose the following statements are true: # \sum a_n is a convergent series, # is a monotone sequence, and # is bounded. Then \sum a_nb_n is also convergent. It is important to understand that this test is mainly pertinent and useful in the context of non absolutely convergent series \sum a_n. For absolutely convergent series, this theorem, albeit true, is almost self evident. This theorem can be proved directly using summation by parts. Abel's test in complex analysis ...

Abel's Identity
In mathematics, Abel's identity (also called Abel's formula or Abel's differential equation identity) is an equation that expresses the Wronskian of two solutions of a homogeneous second-order linear ordinary differential equation in terms of a coefficient of the original differential equation. The relation can be generalised to ''n''th-order linear ordinary differential equations. The identity is named after the Norwegian mathematician Niels Henrik Abel. Since Abel's identity relates the different linearly independent solutions of the differential equation, it can be used to find one solution from the other. It provides useful identities relating the solutions, and is also useful as a part of other techniques such as the method of variation of parameters. It is especially useful for equations such as Bessel's equation where the solutions do not have a simple analytical form, because in such cases the Wronskian is difficult to compute directly.

Abel's Inequality
In mathematics, Abel's inequality, named after Niels Henrik Abel, supplies a simple bound on the absolute value of the inner product of two vectors in an important special case. Mathematical description Let be a sequence of real numbers that is either nonincreasing or nondecreasing, and let be a sequence of real or complex numbers. If is nondecreasing, it holds that : \left , \sum_^n a_k b_k \right , \le \operatorname_ , B_k, (, a_n, + a_n - a_1), and if is nonincreasing, it holds that : \left , \sum_^n a_k b_k \right , \le \operatorname_ , B_k, (, a_n, - a_n + a_1), where : B_k =b_1+\cdots+b_k. In particular, if the sequence is nonincreasing and nonnegative, it follows that : \left , \sum_^n a_k b_k \right , \le \operatorname_ , B_k, a_1, Relation to Abel's transformation Abel's inequality follows easily from Abel's transformation, which is the discrete version of integration by parts: If and are sequences of real or complex numbers, it holds that : \sum_^n a_k ...
