Mathematics and Gender

This edited collection describes how the Autonomous Learning Behaviours (ALB) model, formulated by Fennema and Peterson, specifically relates to gender differences in mathematics education, learning and performance. The book provides a back...

Reasoning, Affectivity and School Performance at the end of Portuguese Elementary Education: Which Variables To Consider?

Abstract Elementary education is a stage in which children and adolescents develop reasoning and affectivity, variables often associated with school performance. This study aims to analyze the relationship between reasoning, affectivity and...

Gas Transport in Shale Nanopores with Miscible Zone

Based on the results of molecular dynamics simulation, in a gas-water miscible zone, the velocity profiles of the flowing water film do not increase monotonously but increase first and then decrease, which is due to the interaction between ...

Regularity results for a model in magnetohydrodynamics with imposed pressure

The magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) problem is most often studied in a framework where Dirichlet type boundary conditions on the velocity field is imposed. In this Note, we study the (MHD) system with pressure boundary condition, together with z...

Weight-perception-based fixed and variable admittance control algorithms for unimanual and bimanual lifting of objects with a power assist robotic system

Weight-perception-based fixed admittance control algorithm and variable admittance control algorithm are proposed for unimanual and bimanual lifting of objects with a power assist robotic system. To include weight perception in controls, th...

On mathematical modeling of fractional-order stochastic for tuberculosis transmission dynamics

Tuberculosis remains one of the most dangerous diseases globally and has affected many people in Sub-Saharan Africa. In this paper, a fractional stochastic model of tuberculosis disease was formulated and analyzed. The existence and uniquen...

Design and Verification of Assessment Tool of Shortwave Communication Interference Impact Area

In the field of electronic communication warfare, accurately predicting the range and intensity of shortwave interference signals presents a significant challenge due to the complex interplay between the ionospheric parameters and the elect...

Mathematics for Physics

An engagingly-written account of mathematical tools and ideas, this book provides a graduate-level introduction to the mathematics used in research in physics. The first half of the book focuses on the traditional mathematical methods of ph...

Assessing the Relationship between Attitude toward Mathematics and Achievement in Mathematics: A Meta-Analysis

Xin Ma, Nand Kishor, Assessing the Relationship between Attitude toward Mathematics and Achievement in Mathematics: A Meta-Analysis, Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, Vol. 28, No. 1 (Jan., 1997), pp. 26-47...

Mathematical and Physical Papers

William Thomson, first Baron Kelvin (1824–1907), is best known for devising the Kelvin scale of absolute temperature and for his work on the first and second laws of thermodynamics, though throughout his 53-year career as a mathematical phy...

Mathematical Methods of Classical Mechanics

A Mathematical Introduction to Robotic Manipulation

A Mathematical Introduction to Robotic Manipulation presents a mathematical formulation of the kinematics, dynamics, and control of robot manipulators. It uses an elegant set of mathematical tools that emphasizes the geometry of robot motio...

Varieties of Constructive Mathematics

This is an introduction to, and survey of, the constructive approaches to pure mathematics. The authors emphasise the viewpoint of Errett Bishop's school, but intuitionism. Russian constructivism and recursive analysis are also treated, wit...

The Philosophy of Mathematical Practice

Contemporary philosophy of mathematics offers us an embarrassment of riches. Among the major areas of work one could list developments of the classical foundational programs, analytic approaches to epistemology and ontology of mathematics, ...

Mathematical Morphology

Mathematical Morphology allows for the analysis and processing of geometrical structures using techniques based on the fields of set theory, lattice theory, topology, and random functions. It is the basis of morphological image processing, ...
