Reference excerpt

Shangri-La's Fijian Resort is a luxury resort located at Yanuca Island, on Viti Levu island, Cuvu, Sigatoka, Fiji. Currently managed by Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts, the resort originally opened in 1967. After independence from the British, and going local was encouraged over expatriate management, Mr Andrew Thompson was appointed the first local General Manager at the young age of 27. He took the resort to new heights and since then, the Fijian Hotel as it was known then, has never looked back. It has 436 rooms renovation completed in July 2005 while its 610 sq m Davui Events Centre is scheduled for competition by third week of 2006. It has a number of restaurants serving Asian and international dishes, often with vegetarian options. Among its recreation facilities is a 9-hole executive golf course designed by British Golf Open winner Peter Thomson and floodlit tennis courts. Shangri-La's Fijian Resort provides seaside wedding at the non-denominational Seaside Wedding Chapel which can handle up to 42 guests.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Shangri-La's Fijian Resort

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Shangri-La's Fijian Resort claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Shangri-La's Fijian Resort before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Shangri-La's Fijian Resort ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Shangri-La's Fijian Resort

In research: Shangri-La's Fijian Resort appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Shangri-La's Fijian Resort in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Shangri-La's Fijian Resort is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1979 establishments in Fiji, Buildings and structures completed in 1979, Fiji stubs, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Shangri-La's Fijian Resort outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
