The Role of Mathematical Definitions in Mathematics and in Undergraduate Mathematics Courses

Introduction One of the earliest subjects of undergraduate mathematics education research was students' difficulties in writing formal mathematical proofs. Some research focused on the heuristics involved in proof-writing, but early attempt...

Mathematics and Plausible Reasoning

This is a guide to the practical art of plausible reasoning, this book has relevance in every field of intellectual activity. Professor Polya, a world-famous mathematician from Stanford University, uses mathematics to show how hunches and g...

Mathematical Foundations of Neuroscience

The Chicken or the Egg? The Direction of the Relationship Between Mathematics Anxiety and Mathematics Performance

This review considers the two possible causal directions between mathematics anxiety (MA) and poor mathematics performance. Either poor maths performance may elicit MA (referred to as the Deficit Theory), or MA may reduce future maths perfo...

The Effects of the Weak Allee Effect and Disease on the Dynamics of a Predator–Prey System: Stability and Bifurcation Properties

In this paper, an eco-epidemiological model with a weak Allee effect and prey disease dynamics is discussed. Mathematical features such as non-negativity, boundedness of solutions, and local stability of the feasible equilibria are discusse...

AMPLITUDE-TIME ANALYSIS OF BIOMECHANICAL PATTERNS OF HUMAN MOTIONS

Biomechanical analysis of motions solves the tasks of efficiency estimation of movement realization, search of technique optimal variants and tactics of motion performance, definition of a degree and reasons of not matching real movement ac...

Abstrak: Faktorisasi polinomial merupakan suatu proses penguraian suatu  polinomial berderajat n menjadi polinomial-polinomial lain yang berderajat lebih kecil dari n.  Faktorisasi polinomial atas lapangan hingga  merupakan suatu proses pen...

Optimasi proses penjadwalan mata kuliah menggunakan algoritme genetika dan pencarian tabu

Penjadwalan mata kuliah merupakan permasalahan yang sering terjadi pada perguruan tinggi, di antaranya adalah bentrok waktu mengajar dosen, ruangan dan kelas mahasiswa. Kajian ini mengusulkan optimasi penjadwalan mata kuliah menggunakan alg...

Analysis of amplitude domain characteristics in complex dynamic power signals and their impact on the error of electricity meter

Aiming at the influence of the fast, large range and random change of dynamic load current on the electricity metering, this paper firstly establishes a non-stationary random process modulation model and bimodal modulation model for complex...

Cooperation-Based Modeling of Sustainable Development: An Approach from Filippov’s Systems

The concept of Sustainable Development has given rise to multiple interpretations. In this article, it is proposed that Sustainable Development should be interpreted as the capacity of territory, community, or landscape to conserve the noti...

Carrier-independent deep optical watermarking algorithm

With the development of multimedia techniques, the demand for copyright protection of digital products has also gradually risen.Digital watermarking is an effective means to protect the copyright of digital products.It is generally made by ...

Decision-Making Methodologies for Reuse of Industrial Assets

When there is a social consensus that industrial assets are in fact heritage elements of cultural interest, their conservation and reuse must be considered with approaches that offer greater guarantees and that prevent their exposure to agg...

IWT and RSA based asymmetric image encryption algorithm

An asymmetric image encryption algorithm based on integer wavelet transformation (IWT) and Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) algorithm is proposed. Firstly, two plain characteristic parameters (PCP) of the plain image are extracted and two random...

On a Mixed Nonlinear One Point Boundary Value Problem for an Integrodifferential Equation

This paper is devoted to the study of a mixed problem for a nonlinear parabolic integro-differential equation which mainly arise from a one dimensional quasistatic contact problem. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions in a we...
