		In linear algebra, the Jordan normal form, also called the Jordan canonical form, named in honor of the 19th and early 20th-century French mathematician Camille Jordan, answers the question, for a given square matrix M over a field K, to what extent M can be simplified into a standard...

	Earthquake Damage Repair and Strengthening of Christ Church Cathedral, Newcastle NSW
		The structural engineering design of a project such as the Cathedral can be undertaken in a number of ways and, as is usually the case with structural design, different engineers will come up with different valid solutions.
		An eminent Engineer, with structural and heritage conservation credentials, Mr Harry Trueman, was appointed to assist the working party in resolving the differences, both analytical and philosophical, between the various consultants working for the Insurer and the Diocese (See Appendix).
		Most engineers hurriedly became familiar with the requirements as experience was imported from overseas (mainly New Zealand and California), but little help was available immediately for dealing with masonry buildings of heritage importance, particularly the Cathedral.

		For intanse, I do not like the idea of a turbo diesel engine, i think instead they should put a v-8 gasoline powered engine, or hold off the progect and wait for a hybrid engine to be developed.
		This engine may not have the highest horsepower, but torque is more vital when offroading.
		I would like to see a gasoline engine choice, whether that is a supercharged 6 or a modular V8 doesn't matter as long as it's has excellent power or is easily to tweak and bolt on aftermarket mods.
