Earth’s Rotation: A Challenging Problem in Mathematics and Physics [PDF]
Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2014 A suitable knowledge of the orientation and motion of the Earth in space is a common need in various fields. That knowledge has been ever necessary to carry out astronomical observations, but with the advent of the space age, it became essential for making observations of satellites and predicting and determining their orbits, and for observing the ...

Spatial anxiety mediates the sex difference in adult mental rotation test performance
Cognitive Research, 2020 Mental rotation ability is associated with successful advances in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education and occupations. Meta-analyses have shown consistent sex disparities in mental rotation, where men outperform women on ...

Mathematics of three-dimensional eye rotations
Vision Research, 1995 The recording of three-dimensional eye position has become the accepted standard in oculomotor research. In this paper we review the mathematics underlying the representation of three-dimensional eye movements. Rotation matrices, rotation vectors and quaternions are presented, and their relations described.

Physico-Mathematical Models in Rotational Motions
World Journal of Mechanics, 2017 This paper was the prologue to the first book published by Gabriel Barcelo on the Theory of Dynamic Interactions, entitled: The Flight of the Boomerang. However, this text, is fully current, as well as the book itself. The book described mainly the initial historical analysis made by Dr. Barcelo on the rotational dynamics. For Professor Garcia Moliner,

Mathematical and numerical modeling of plate dynamics with rotational inertia [PDF]
Journal of Numerical Mathematics, 2018 AbstractWe give a presentation of the mathematical and numerical treatment of plate dynamics problems including rotational inertia. The presence of rotational inertia in the equation of motion makes the study of such problems interesting. We employ HCT finite elements for space discretization and the Newmark method for time discretization in FreeFEM++,

Experimental but not Sex Differences of a Mental Rotation Training Program on Adolescents
Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 Given the importance of visuospatial processing in areas related to the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) disciplines, where there is still a considerable gap in the area of sex differences, the interest in the effects of ...
