Unreferenced date December 2009 In abstract algebra , a branch of mathematics , an Archimedean group is an algebraic structure consisting of a Set mathematics set together with a binary operation and binary relation satisfying certain axioms detailed below. We can also say that an Archimedean group is a linearly ordered group for which the Archimedean property holds. For example, the set R of real number s together with the operation of addition and usual ordering relation is an Archimedean group. The concept is named after Archimedes . Definition In the subsequent, we use the notation math na math where math n math is in the set N of natural number s for the sum of a with itself n times. An Archimedean group G , , is a linearly ordered group subject to the following condition for any a and b in G which are greater than 0 , the inequality na b holding for every n in N implies a 0. Examples of Archimedean groups The sets of the integer s, the rational number s, the real number s, together with the operation of addition and the usual ordering , are Archimedean groups.

Refimprove article s initial explanation date January 2009 An Archimedean point or Punctum Archimedis is a hypothetical vantage point from which an observer can objectively perceive the subject of inquiry, with a view of totality. The ideal of removing oneself from the object of study so that one can see it in relation to all other things, but remain independent of them, is described by a view from an Archimedean point. The expression comes from Archimedes , who supposedly claimed that he could lift the Earth off its foundation if he were given a place to stand, one solid point, and a long enough lever.

notability date October 2011 Image Spiral pump.JPG thumb right 200px A spiral pump A spiral pump is a low lift pump which is composed of a a long piece of metal plating, which is wound into a coil and sealed at the top and back extremities so as to resemble a cylinder. The outer cavity serves as the inlet, while the inner partial tube serves as the outlet. The outlet pipe is fixed to a engine or animal which is capable of rotating the pump quickly. Due to this rotation, water is picked up by the outer cavity and pumped upwards in the hose. Application The spiral pump, as many low lift pumps, is commonly used for irrigation purposes and for drainage of lands. Advantages The spiral pump is an alternative to the Archimedes screw Archimedean screw . Unlike the Archimedean screw, it can pump while horizontal. The Archimedean screw must be tilted at an angle. The spiral pump, if fitted with a suitable rotating seal, can deliver water to a greater height, typically 5 10m, above their discharge opening. ref http www.fao.org docrep 010 ah810e AH810E06.htm Spiral pump ref Despite the emergence of new pumps that operate on other principles, the spiral pump remains an important tool as it can be built and repaired easily at a very low cost. This is possible as all the components can be built from local resources such as sheet metal bent into the desired form with or without machine tools. Disadvantages As mentioned before, the pump only allows the lifting of water over a small height. Such an inhibiting factor makes it unsuitable for use in water drainage or irrigation situations that require water to be lifted over larger heights.

It is so called because, if the instants of such time are assigned numbers, the set of such numbers must be Archimedean property non Archimedean . Non Archimedean future time would entail the existence of a future moment T , such that for any finite duration y there exists a moment Now y but less than T . Note that if such a future moment T existed, there would exist an infinity of moments such that for all finite moments y , T &minus y would be after every moment Now y where y is a finite duration. Likewise, one may conceive of a non archimedean past. One may distinguish singularly, multiply and infinitely non Archimedean times. In a singularly non archimedean time, we can choose albeit arbitrarily a single moment T infinitely in the future and or the past, mutatis mutandis , such that every other moment infinitely in the future past is finitely in the future or past of T . In a multiply non Archimedean time, there exists a finite set of moments S where the cardinality of S is greater than two such that each member of S , T , is infinitely in the future or past of every other element of S , and there exists an infinity of moments finitely in the future of T , and every instant that is not an element of S is finitely in the future or past of one element of S , and infinitely in the future or past of every other element of S .
