The concept of absement was first introduced by physicist Alain Desbiens in the early 2000s. Absement Equation: Displacement (Position): To obtain the displacement or position function "x(t)" from the absement equation, you would differentiate the absement function "A(t)" with respect to time "t". Velocity: To obtain the velocity function "v(t)" from the absement equation, you would differentiate the displacement function "x(t)" with respect to time "t". Acceleration: To obtain the acceleration function "a(t)" from the absement equation, you would differentiate the velocity function "v(t)" with respect to time "t". ‘Temporal Dynamics’ from ‘Assembly Time’ by Lance Carlyle Carter Please note that these transpositions involve differentiation and are based on the relationships between absement, displacement, velocity, and acceleration. (Elaborate on the Absement Equation:) Let's delve into the process of obtaining displacement, velocity, and acceleration from the absement equation in detail: Displacement (Position): The absement function "A(t)" represents the time-integrated displacement of an object from a reference point. To obtain the displacement or position function "x(t)" from the absement equation, you differentiate the absement function "A(t)" with respect to time "t". Mathematically, if you have the absement function A(t), you would perform the following differentiation:

x(t) = d/dt (A(t)) Here, "d/dt" represents the derivative with respect to time "t". Taking the derivative of the absement function yields the displacement or position function. Velocity: To obtain the velocity function "v(t)" from the absement equation, you would differentiate the displacement function "x(t)" with respect to time "t". If you already have the displacement function from the previous step, you can proceed with the differentiation: v(t) = d/dt (x(t)) Here, "d/dt" denotes the derivative with respect to time "t". By taking the derivative of the displacement function, you derive the velocity function. Acceleration: To obtain the acceleration function "a(t)" from the absement equation, you would differentiate the velocity function "v(t)" with respect to time "t". Assuming you have the velocity function from the previous step, you can proceed with differentiation: a(t) = d/dt (v(t)) Again, "d/dt" represents the derivative with respect to time "t". By taking the derivative of the velocity function, you derive the acceleration function. ‘Temporal Dynamics’ from ‘Assembly Time’ by Lance Carlyle Carter In summary, to obtain displacement (position), velocity, and acceleration from the absement equation, you perform the following steps: Start with the absement function A(t).
