Two point-like particles of mass m. The particles are rigidly connected to each other with a mass-less rod of length L. The particles are initially at rest in such a way that one particle is at the origin and the other is at the point (0, L). A point-like particle of mass M collides with a...
TL;DR Summary: I'm looking for a book on statistical/data analysis.
Hey all. I've been doing statistical analysis in my research (such as using PCA and LDA), but I have never received a formal education on statistical analysis or data mining, and what I know about analysis is quite scattered...
Hi first time using this forum, I have some homework that I am entirely stuck on, can anyone help me with this question? I understand the placement of nodes, and that I need to convert complex numbers, but apart from that I have no idea what direction that I'm supposed to take in this. I don't...

My attempt at a solution:
Once the capacitors have been applied, we see directly that ##\boxed{v_c=v_0=0\, \textrm{V}}##
Wouldn't this one be done like this?
I know the following: in a circuit with capacitors and coils, if we have
Capacitor: we change for an open circuit.
Coil: we...
The following properties of big-O notation follow from the definition:

Hi. I'm nearing retirement so I thought I would take some math classes. This fall I took a Real Analysis class at a good school and dropped it because I did so bad on the first exam. I did great on the homework and quizzes. I also took Real Analysis about 47 years ago at a very good school...
So, I use Ansys (well known FEM software) and get the next output for a modal analysis toy problem (If you happen to know Ansys that's a pre, but I promise it shouldn't matter). The problem is a simple beam, clamped at one end. I used 160 20-node brick elements to solve it (so no Timoshenko...
I know that if there is only one conductor providing the current density, then the current density can be used.
But if you apply Maxwell's equation when there are multiple current sources, I don't know which value to use.
This is not an analysis using a tool, but a problem when I develop the...
In Lecture 7, Prof. Arthur Mattuck (MIT OCW 18.03) taught that the following equation
$$
y’ +ky = k \cos(\omega t)$$
can be solved by replacing cos(ωt) by ##e^{\omega t}## and, rewriting thus,
$$
\tilde{y’} + k\tilde{y}= ke^{i \omega t}
$$
Where ##\tilde{y} = y_1 + i y_2##. And the solution of...

I have been conducting free decay analysis on the NREL 5-MW-wind turbine model provided by SIMPACK . I wanted to compare the free decay results with OPENFAST simulation. Hence, I applied a initial displacement of 1m on the tower top in the Y direction. While comparing the results with OPENFAST...

Hello,
I am currently planning on self studying math analysis with MIT ocw courses, but I cannot find the analysis course. I have found on the web that analysis and ODE are the same thing. If I want to get a good introduction to analysis, is the MIT ODE course fit for such a use?
Thanks
I was having trouble with a physics problem (string tension dynamics) In this case I have a model that simulates the phalanges of a human finger. Each phalanx is a block of mass m1, m2 or m3 respectively. And to simplify it, consider the 3 equal masses.
These phalanges are linked by joints that...
Swimming pool test kits combine a few drops of an unknown chemical with about 10 mL of pool water and then check the color of the reaction.

If we define Laplacian of scalar field in some curvilinear coordinates ## \Delta U## could we then just say what ##\Delta## is in that orthogonal coordinates and then act with the same operator on the vector field ## \Delta \vec{A}##?

Description Function spaces, convergence, inner product, bounded linear operators, integral operators and integral equations, adjoint operators, expansion in eigenfunctions, resolvent, kernel

Hello everyone. I was watching the Walter Lewin lectures and I noticed in the talk he used something called dimension analysis to study the time it takes for an object to drop based on differing heights.

I got something like this, but I'm not sure it is correct, because if it has the same order of convergence as trapezoidal rule which is 2, it should yield the same result as trapezoidal rule but mine doesn't (?).
For example sin(x) for [0,1], n with trapezoidal rule = 0.420735...

Hello! Consider this circuit
Now I am susposed to solve this using nodal analysis. The first step is to "prepare the network" so that I can set up the conductance matrix.
Now I've tried it for a bit and was not really able to do it. So I went ahead and looked at the solutions and this is how...
Hi,
Both NAND and NOR are considered to be universal gates. For example, NAND gates can be used in combination to perform the AND, OR, and inverter operations. The same could be said of NOR gate.
Then, why the digital electronics section of electronics textbooks almost always start with the...

It has been 35 years since I did the math for Fourier analysis, and I have forgotten what the subtleties are. Please be kind.

So I was looking at this example problem in my textbook and I don’t understand how they got -168.1 degrees. The part I’m confused with is the first part of the 2nd picture, there’s a coma in the inverse tan, I don’t know what that means.
In many books it is just written that ##\Delta(\frac{1}{r})=0##. However it is only the case when ##r \neq 0##. In general case ##\Delta(\frac{1}{r})=-4\pi \delta(\vec{r})##. What abot ##\mbox{div}(\frac{\vec{r}}{r^3})##? What is that in case where we include also point ##0##?

Hi,
I am doing e-field simulations and have came across two types; electrostatic and dc conduction. I know that electrostatic means there is no changing field so I'm just hoping for discussion on when one is more appropriate than the other and when one definitely should or should not be used.
