Shape Optimization of Free-form Shells Considering Strain Energy and Algebraic Invariants of Parametric Surface

open access: yes, 2009
p. 525-535A new approach is proposed for shape optimization of shell surfaces, where requirements on the aesthetic aspect and the constructability as well as the structural rationality are simultaneously considered in the problem formulation. The surface

Geometric Investigation of Three Thin Shells with Ruled Middle Surfaces with the Same Main Frame

open access: yesStructural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and Buildings
It is proved and illustrated that by taking the main frame of the surface, consisting of three plane curves placed in three coordinate planes, three different algebraic surfaces with the same rigid frame can be designed.

Simplifying algebraic expressions with brackets: Insights into Grade 10 learners’ structure sense through a study of their errors

open access: yesPythagoras
Developing structure sense is an important part of learning algebra. We investigated learners’ structure sense of algebraic expressions involving brackets. This led us to propose the constructs surface structure sense and systemic structure sense.

The first cohomology of the mapping class group with coefficients in algebraic functions on the SL(2, C) moduli space

open access: yes, 2008
Consider a compact surface of genus at least two. We prove that the first cohomology group of the mapping class group with coefficients in the space of algebraic functions on the SL(2, C) moduli space ...

On the Integrability of the SIR Epidemic Model with Vital Dynamics

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematical Physics, 2020
In this paper, we study the SIR epidemic model with vital dynamics Ṡ=−βSI+μN−S,İ=βSI−γ+μI,Ṙ=γI−μR, from the point of view of integrability. In the case of the death/birth rate μ=0, the SIR model is integrable, and we provide its general solutions by ...

A Graphical Method for Great Circle Routes

open access: yesPolish Maritime Research, 2017
A great circle route (GCR) is the shortest route on a spherical earth model. Do we have a visual diagram to handle the shortest route? In this paper, a graphical method (GM) is proposed to solve the GCR problems based on the celestial meridian diagram ...

Estimating Nielsen Numbers on Wedge Product Spaces

open access: yesFixed Point Theory and Applications, 2008
Let f:X→X be a self-map of a finite polyhedron that is an aspherical wedge product space X. In this paper, we estimate the Nielsen number N(f) of f.
