  Physical Property Chapter from 'Property Tax - California Style'
Property may be considered physically annexed if the weight, the size, or both are such that relocation or removal of the property would be so difficult that the item appears to be intended to remain in place indefinitely.
Property is not considered physically annexed to realty solely because of attachment to the realty by "quick disconnect" attachments, such as simple wiring and conduit connections.
Property connected to the realty by quick disconnect conduits which contain power or electronic cable, or allow for heating, cooling, or ventilation service to the connected property is constructively annexed only if it is an integral part of the building itself rather than attached for convenience only.

 20th WCP: New Physical Properties
Properties identifiable through a language would be the referents of the resulting expressions of nominalizing the declarative sentences of that language in the way of 4 or 5.
With respect to the new physical properties it would not be necessary to dispose of referential expressions which belong to the languages of physics, and it would not be necessary either to have referential expressions which are co-referential with referential expressions belonging to the languages of physics.
Even accepting that for a property to exist it has to be instantiable, and even accepting that for a property to be physical its instantiations have to show effects of some relevant physical kinds, they would reject the appearance of new physical properties in the four situations previously presented.

 Property Control - Acquisition
If a department requires their noncapital property to be tagged, Property Control suggests that the department purchase custom tags from ASU Stores and track this property using there own property control system/database.
As buildings are scheduled for inventory, departments having property assigned to or located in the scheduled building (per the property records) will be notified by letter of the inventory date.
Sponsors require property purchased with their funds to be used only for the reason for which it was intended during the term of the project.

 Intellectual property - SourceWatch
Intellectual property (IP) is the extension of the principles of physical property ownership and management to the domain of ideas and inventions, separate from their physical manifestations.
Property can be controlled, stolen, or destroyed, but information cannot, and yet those who flock to the banner of IP restrictions continue to employ the phrase.
In effect, propaganda itself becomes intellectual property, with all the attendant protections and privileges, so that it cannot be easily quoted, satirized, mocked, mimicked or distributed to those who would be able to make such comment, or attach it to the work(s).

 Intellectual Property Myths
To take away intellectual property rights is to deny creators the right to profit from their labors.
Removing intellectual property rights would not deny creators the right to profit from their labors; it would, however, allow all of society to share in the benefits of their work.
Physical property rights are derived from the basic fact that a physical object can't be in two places at once.

 paper on Hempel’s dilemma: “Physicalism: Empirical, not Metaphysical”,   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The Explanatory Constraint: The explanatory aspirations of physicalism are metaphysical, not nomic.
Similar considerations also rule out that the properties of being in certain mental states, namely, those associated with propositional attitudes, such as wanting and believing, could turn out to be fundamental physical properties on this account.
physical properties in which physicalism is false, but those properties also count as physical at that world in the present sense.

 Competitive Enterprise Institute
Richard notes that the process of codifying intellectual property is statutory, and is therefore top-down, not bottom up in the same sense as customary law that forms on a frontier (what Italian legal scholar Bruno Leoni argues constitutes the common law).
So the argument about incentives is roughly the same for physical property and IP at the macro level, but the problem of conflict resolution is different at the micro level—a difference not of kind but of degree.
So with IP as with physical property or with a game of basketball, we can have a meaningful conversation about fairness when the rules are interpreted differently or changed.

Chemical properties are characterized by a change in identity, whereas physical properties are not.
This is a physical property; freezing is just changing the physical state, not the identity of the substance.
This is a chemical property; that it was not present to begin with suggests an identity change.

 Physical Property Information - ChemicalInformationSources
Over time, the names of the properties of interest may have changed, they may be reported in units that are different from those sought, or the conditions (temperature and pressure, for example) under which the published data values were measured do not correspond to those of interest.
Even for those properties in the last decade or two that do not have actual values in the database, an indication that the property may be found in the primary literature and the references to the original literature are given.
There are dozens of physical properties reported in Beilstein, and all values are experimental as reported in the original publication.

 FRB: Speech, Greenspan--Intellectual property rights--February 27, 2004
More generally, in the realm of physical production, where scarce resources are critical inputs, each additional unit of output is usually more costly to produce than the previous one; that is, production, at least eventually, is characterized by increasing marginal cost.
Whether we protect intellectual property as an inalienable right or as a privilege vouchsafed by the sovereign, such protection inevitably entails making some choices that have crucial implications for the balance we strike between the interests of those who innovate and those who would benefit from innovation.
In the case of physical property, we take it for granted that the ownership right should have the potential of persisting as long as the physical object itself.

Physical property rights are derived from the basic fact that a physical object can't be in two places at once.
Information, however, differs from physical property in a number of ways, one of which being that it can be in many places at the same time.

 2.03: The Economy of Ideas
Intellectual property law cannot be patched, retrofitted, or expanded to contain digitized expression any more than real estate law might be revised to cover the allocation of broadcasting spectrum (which, in fact, rather resembles what is being attempted here).
That is, when the primary articles of commerce in a society look so much like speech as to be indistinguishable from it, and when the traditional methods of protecting their ownership have become ineffectual, attempting to fix the problem with broader and more vigorous enforcement will inevitably threaten freedom of speech.
Additionally complicating the matter is the fact that along with the disappearance of the physical bottles in which intellectual property protection has resided, digital technology is also erasing the legal jurisdictions of the physical world and replacing them with the unbounded and perhaps permanently lawless waves of cyberspace.

 Physical and Chemical Properties   (Site not responding. Last check: )
A physical property of a pure substance is anything that can be observed without changing the identity of the substance.
There really isn't a set of chemical properties in the same way there is, more or less, a set of physical properties.
That's because the chemical properties are tied to the change, whereas a given substance has a property (such as melting point) all to itself.

Physical property data is defined using the command 'PROPERTY PHYSICAL...', and applied to parts or sets using the command 'PROPERTY ATTACH...'.
The BEAM-PRP property type can have two sets of values depending upon the beam type (Hughes-Liu or Belytschko-Schwer) to which the property is to be attached.
The properties for Point Masses, Springs and Dampers are written in a separate record entitled 'SPRINGS, DAMPERS AND POINT MASSES'.

 A Radical Theory of Property
I think that's because it jars with some people's traditional sense of what property is. They live in the physical world and the non-physical is counter to the intuitions that life engenders.
The second is the notion that perhaps intellectual property is the "real" property and physical property the illusion.
And, unlike physical objects, in some cases they can come up with very similar thoughts of their own independently of me. So while the relationship is intrinsic, we do need to create philosophy and laws to govern just what control of shared thoughts means.

 General Chemistry Online: FAQ: Matter: What is the difference between chemical and physical change?
Physical change rearranges molecules but doesn't affect their internal structures.
Some of the steps are chemical and others are physical, so the overall process can't cleanly be placed in either category.
For example, boiling coffee involves chemical change (the delicate molecules that give coffee its flavor react with air and become new, bitter-tasting substances) and physical change (the water in the coffee is going from liquid to gaseous form).

 Right to Create: Intellectual "Property?"
So in order for intellectual property to be maintained, it must be more important than tangible, physical property -- it must be more real than the physical world itself.
To claim that ideas can be owned by individuals in the same way that physical property can be owned is to claim that individuals can erase memories and knowledge from others.
But when patent law no longer benefits the society which has traded in their natural rights of creation and sacrificed their right to physical property in exchange, it is just as reasonable to consider fixing the law to bring about better balance.

 Chemical and Physical Properties Database Welcome
This database is intended to provide a quick summary of available chemical and physical property values and allows a person to compare and verify values quickly.
In general, a chemical or a physical property value should be verified by at least two or three sources, since no single source can provide correct data all the time.
Some of the chemical and physical property values in this database will be incorporated into a future amendment to appendix A to Chapter 250, as data used to calculate medium-specific concentrations under the Statewide health standard.

 Mineral Gallery - The Physical Properties of Minerals
An idealized physical property is one that will give a unique result for each mineral and will always give the same result, again and again, for any and every specimen of that mineral.
Mineralogists are usually happy to have a property that simply is consistent in providing the same result for every specimen of a certain mineral.
Hopefully, this property also has a good range of possible results so that two similar minerals might stand a good chance of having different results.

 Online Property Estimation - Molecular Knowledge Systems, Inc.
There are numerous physical property estimation techniques which accurately predict a chemical's or mixture's physical properties.
Once several basic properties are estimated by group contribution techniques these can be entered into equation oriented techniques for further property estimation.
For example to estimate properties for butanol you would enter, 1 next to the -CH3 group, 3 next to the -CH2- group, and 1 next to the -OH group.
