In this article the authors discuss how the research paradigm and methodology work together to form a research study. The qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods debate is then discussed as it pertains to the decisions that need to be made by the researcher.t is, therefore, a priority of this article to 'demystify' the role of paradigms in research. The article then moves to a discussion of methodology as it relates to the research paradigm.
The classic formula for determining the bending stress in a beam under simple bending is: = where. is the bending stress â the moment about the neutral axis â the perpendicular distance to the neutral axis
So in other words, if I take the natural logarithm of ex, I get x back: in equation form ln(ex) = x, or equivalently, ln(exp(x)) = x. It works the other way around, too, exp(ln(x)) = x. The expression 1-exp(x) means raise the number e to the x power then subtract it from 1.
