The adoption of the Constitutio Criminalis Carolina ( " peinliche Gerichtsordnung " of Charles V ) in 1532 made inquisitional procedures empirical law.

It is a purely empirical law attempting to describe ion flow ( mostly sodium and chloride ) in clean, consolidated sands, with varying intergranular porosity.
13.
Ptolemy was confident he had found an accurate empirical law, partially as a result of fudging his data to fit theory ( see : confirmation bias ).
14.
Fluid mechanics offers a mathematical structure that underlies these practical discipines which often also embrace empirical and semi-empirical laws, derived from flow measurement, to solve practical problems.
15.
Fluid dynamics offers a systematic structure which underlies these practical disciplines that embraces empirical and semi-empirical laws derived from flow measurement and used to solve practical problems.
16.
Instead, it notes that Richardson's empirical law is compatible with the idea that geographic curves, such as coastlines, can be modelled by random self-similar figures of fractional dimension.
17.
Bunyakovsky formulated an empirical law of deaths in 1869, making it possible to solve the problems on the calculation of both capital insurance and life-time incomes in finances.
18.
Jerry Fodor influentially argues this view, according to which empirical laws and explanations in " special sciences " like psychology or geology are invisible from the perspective of basic physics.
19.
Newton also built the first practical reflecting telescope and developed a theory of colour based on the observation that a an empirical law of cooling and studied the speed of sound.

As this is an empirical law, values of the parameters are obtained by fitting to data after a mainshock has occurred, and they imply no specific physical mechanism in any given case.
