+/// \brief Example demonstrating the usage of Boost.Units' quantity,
+/// unit, and absolute types in functors created with the
+/// Boost.Lambda library and stored in Boost.Function objects.
+///
+/// \author Torsten Maehne
+/// \date 2008-06-04
+///
+/// A mechanical, electrical, geometrical, and thermal example
+/// demonstrate how to use Boost.Units' quantity, unit, and absolute
+/// types in lambda expressions. The resulting functors can be stored
+/// in boost::function objects. It is also shown how to work around a
+/// limitation of Boost.Lambda's bind() to help it to find the correct
+/// overloaded function by specifying its signature with a
+/// static_cast.
