Download or read book Cosserat Plate Theory written by Lev Steinberg and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the foundation and validation of the Cosserat Plate Theory, numerical experiments of deformation and vibration, and the unique properties of the Cosserat plates. Our approach incorporates the high accuracy assumptions of the Cosserat plate deformation consistent with the Cosserat Elasticity equilibrium equations, constitutive formulas, strain-displacement and torsion-microrotation relations. The Cosserat Plate Theory is parametric, where the "splitting parameter" minimizes the Cosserat plate energy. The validation of the theory is based on the comparison with the three-dimensional Cosserat Elastostatics and Elastodynamics. The numerical results are obtained using the Finite Element Method (FEM) specifically developed to solve the parametric system of equations. The analysis of deformation of a variety of Cosserat plates shows the stress concentration reduction, higher stiffness of Cosserat plates, and the size-effect related to the microstructure. The analysis of vibration of Cosserat plates predicts size-related properties of the plate vibration, the existence of the additional so-called Cosserat plate resonances, and the dynamic anisotropy, related to the dependency of the resonances on the microelement's shapes and orientations.

Download or read book Euclidean Geometry in Mathematical Olympiads written by Evan Chen and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2021-08-23 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a challenging problem-solving book in Euclidean geometry, assuming nothing of the reader other than a good deal of courage. Topics covered included cyclic quadrilaterals, power of a point, homothety, triangle centers; along the way the reader will meet such classical gems as the nine-point circle, the Simson line, the symmedian and the mixtilinear incircle, as well as the theorems of Euler, Ceva, Menelaus, and Pascal. Another part is dedicated to the use of complex numbers and barycentric coordinates, granting the reader both a traditional and computational viewpoint of the material. The final part consists of some more advanced topics, such as inversion in the plane, the cross ratio and projective transformations, and the theory of the complete quadrilateral. The exposition is friendly and relaxed, and accompanied by over 300 beautifully drawn figures. The emphasis of this book is placed squarely on the problems. Each chapter contains carefully chosen worked examples, which explain not only the solutions to the problems but also describe in close detail how one would invent the solution to begin with. The text contains a selection of 300 practice problems of varying difficulty from contests around the world, with extensive hints and selected solutions. This book is especially suitable for students preparing for national or international mathematical olympiads or for teachers looking for a text for an honor class.

The exposition is driven by nearly 1300 problems and examples chosen from numerous sources from around the world; many original contributions come from the authors. The source, author, and historical background are cited whenever possible. Complete solutions to all problems are given at the end of the book. This second edition includes new sections on quad ratic polynomials, curves in the plane, quadratic fields, combinatorics of numbers, and graph theory, and added problems or theoretical expansion of sections on polynomials, matrices, abstract algebra, limits of sequences and functions, derivatives and their applications, Stokes' theorem, analytical geometry, combinatorial geometry, and counting strategies. Using the W.L. Putnam Mathematical Competition for undergraduates as an inspiring symbol to build an appropriate math background for graduate studies in pure or applied mathematics, the reader is eased into transitioning from problem-solving at the high school level to the university and beyond, that is, to mathematical research. This work may be used as a study guide for the Putnam exam, as a text for many different problem-solving courses, and as a source of problems for standard courses in undergraduate mathematics. Putnam and Beyond is organized for independent study by undergraduate and gradu ate students, as well as teachers and researchers in the physical sciences who wish to expand their mathematical horizons.

The game-changing 1600.io "Orange Book" establishes a new category of premium SAT instructional materials. This groundbreaking text is not a collection of "tricks" or "hacks" for getting around the SAT's function of assessing students' skills. Instead, it meets the test on its own terms by providing comprehensive, clear, and patient education in every mathematical concept that can appear on the exam according to the officially published specifications for the test. The renowned SAT preparation team at 1600.io used their extensive experience based on the tens of thousands of students who have passed through our virtual doors to craft this two-volume set (of which this is Volume I) with a fanatical attention to every detail, no matter how small, and we poured into it everything we've learned about how to most effectively help each student acquire the firm, confident grasp of math they need to become a confident master of the material - and, therefore, of the math sections of the SAT. Every SAT math topic, clearly explained Our team spent two years analyzing every math problem on every released test to ensure that we provided engaging, cogent, and thorough explanations for all of the needed concepts. We've got problems... ...and our problems are going to be your problems. More than 16 tests' worth of meticulously constructed SAT-style example and practice problems with hundreds of fully-worked-out solutions. A 1600.io invention: SkillDrills(TM) Many problem-solving techniques are composed of building block skills, so rather than forcing students to make the leap right from instruction to tackling test problems, we provide the intermediate step of these innovative mini-problem sets that build essential skills - and students' confidence. Instant topic lookup for released SAT problems Every one of the 1,276 math problems on the released SATs has been cross-referenced with the section of this pair of books where the primary math skill is fully explained, so students are supported for the entire learning cycle. Each chapter in each volume in the series contains chapters which have section problems, chapter problems, SkillDrills, answer keys, and lists of related real problems from released tests. Volume I (this book) contains the following chapters: Foundations Linear Relationships Slope-Intercept Form Standard Form/Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Systems of Linear Equations Linear Inequalities and Absolute Value Exponents and Radicals/Roots Introduction to Polynomials Solving Quadratic Equations> Extraneous Solutions and Dividing Polynomials The Graphs of Quadratic Equations and Polynomials Number of Zeros/Imaginary and Complex Numbers Volume II (available separately) contains the following chapters: Ratios, Probability, and Proportions Percentages Exponential Relationships Scatterplots and Line Graphs Functions Statistics Unit Conversions Angles, Triangles, and Trigonometry Circles and Volume Wormholes Note that this is a two-volume set, with the topics divided between the volumes, so students should purchase both volumes to have the complete text.
