Fluent Calculus: Fundamentals and Applications

A formalization for expressing dynamical domains in first-order logic, the fluent calculus is a type of calculus. It is a subtype of the scenario calculus, with the primary distinction being that states rather than circumstances are considered to be representations. In order to concatenate the phrases that describe the facts that are true in a circumstance, a symbol for a binary function is utilized. A good illustration of this would be the fact that the formula represents the fact that the box is now located on the table. The solution to the frame problem is to make the assertion that the state of affairs after the completion of an action is the same as it was before, with the exception of the conditions that were altered as a result of the activity. For instance, the action of transferring the box from where it was sitting on the table to where it was standing on the floor can be formalized as follows:
