Exploring the magnetic field of Helmholtz and Maxwell coils: a computer-based approach exploiting the superposition principle [PDF]
Teaching magnetism is one of the most challenging topics at undergraduate level in programmes with scientific background. A basic course includes the description of the magnetic interaction along with empirical results such as the Biot-Savart law's ...

Characterizing the superposition of arbitrary random quantum states and a known quantum state
The superposition of states is one of the most fundamental issues in the quantum world. Generally there do not exist physical operations to superpose two unknown random states with nonzero probability.

The principle of superposition in human prehension [PDF]
The experimental evidence supports the validity of the principle of superposition for multi-finger prehension in humans. Forces and moments of individual digits are defined by two independent commands: “Grasp the object stronger/weaker to prevent slipping” and “Maintain the rotational equilibrium of the object”.

In this letter, an analytical method for the beampattern synthesis of symmetric nonuniform array is proposed. This method consists of two steps. In the first step, it acquires a real symmetric excitation by the convex optimization method to attain a ...

Helping students apply superposition principle in problems involving spherical, cylindrical and planar charge distributions [PDF]
We describe student difficulties in applying the superposition principle in combination with Gauss's law. We addressed these difficulties by developing a tutorial that uses guided inquiry. Students who used this tutorial following lecture-based instruction performed significantly better on these topics than those who did not. Instructors can assign the

Principle of superposition-free memory [PDF]
Abstract The requirement that memory be superposition-free imposes a restrictive condition on the structure of neural models. A simple model which satisfies this condition consists of two levels of neurons, with primary level neurons firing in response to external input and secondary (reference) neurons modifying activated primaries in such a way ...

Role of the superposition principle for enhancing the efficiency of the quantum-mechanical Carnot engine [PDF]
A role of the superposition principle is discussed for the quantum-mechanical Carnot engine introduced by Bender, Brody, and Meister [J. Phys. A 33, 4427 (2000)]. It is shown that the efficiency of the engine can be enhanced by superposition of quantum states.

The theory of calculation of reinforced concrete structures and the principles of the Eurocode
The theory of calculating reinforced concrete is analyzed. As we known reinforced concrete with enormous volumes of application and huge financial costs, due to the great complexity of its nonlinear properties, has a surprisingly unscientific theory of ...

FUNDAMENTAL ERROR OF THE THEORY OF DURABLE RESISTENCE AND STANDARDS FOR REINFORCED CONCRETE
This article identifies and investigates the errors in the foundations of the modern theory of creep of reinforced concrete caused by the use of the principle of superposition, which is an extensive interpretation of the principle (scheme) of the linear ...
