Huygens first used a clock to calculate the equation of time (the difference between the apparent solar time and the time given by a clock), publishing his results in 1665. The relationship enabled astronomers to use the stars to measure sidereal time , which provided an accurate method for setting clocks.
The Clock of Flowing Time (German: Uhr der fließenden Zeit) [1] is a 13 metres (43 ft) high water clock extending over three floors in the Berlin Europa-Center. The clock was designed by the French artist Bernard Gitton and set up in 1982. The water clock displays the time by filling glass spheres with brightly colored liquid, in a cycle that ...
A stock is measured at one specific time, and represents a quantity existing at that point in time (say, December 31, 2004), which may have accumulated in the past. A flow variable is measured over an interval of time. Therefore, a flow would be measured per unit of time (say a year). Flow is roughly analogous to rate or speed in this sense.
Although they treat stock and flow variables consistently, they usually model only individual stock variables such as physical capital, while monetary variables such as credit relations and debt are neglected. [23] [27] Therefore, attempts are made to analyse financial crises using stock-flow consistent models based on the accounting approach.
