Metrication or metrification is the act or process of converting to the metric system of measurement. All over the world, countries have transitioned from local and traditional units of measurement to the metric system. This process began in France during the 1790s, and is still continuing more than 200 years later, with the modern International System of Units, as the metric system has not yet been fully adopted in all countries and areas. (Wikipedia).
Using Dimensional Analysis to Find the Units of a Constant
This video shows you how to use dimensional analysis to find the units for constants in physics and chemistry equations. For example, why are the units for the gravitational constant (G) newtons, meters squared over kilograms squared. Dimensional analysis in physics is an important tool t

Metric space definition and examples. Welcome to the beautiful world of topology and analysis! In this video, I present the important concept of a metric space, and give 10 examples. The idea of a metric space is to generalize the concept of absolute values and distances to sets more gener

What is a metric space? An example
This is a basic introduction to the idea of a metric space. I introduce the idea of a metric and a metric space framed within the context of R^n. I show that a particular distance function satisfies the conditions of being a metric.

Henry Adams (10/11/17): Metric reconstruction via optimal transport
Given a sample of points X in a metric space M and a scale parameter r, the Vietoris-Rips simplicial complex VR(X;r) is a standard construction to attempt to recover M from X up to homotopy type. A deficiency of this approach is that VR(X;r) is not metrizable if it is not locally finite, a
