    Weight training for older people

    I assume a lot of regular people on this forum are older(maybe not as old as me). I ran across an article that is interesting and I can personally attest to this. I work out at least 3 times a week on weight training and some some aerobics at home. I still maintain at least 90% of my peak...

    I Finding yield strength with a load/displacement curve

    Hi! I have done a simulation where I got out the load/displacement curve of a steel beam that is simply supported with an equally distributed load across the whole length (10 m). I want to field the point at which the steel yields. I am used to use the 0,2% value on a stress/strain curve, but...

    A Maxwell theory invariant under dual field strength tensor application

    Hello everybody! I know in classical field theory adding in the Lagrangian density a term of the form Fαβ (*F)αβ (where by * we denote the dual of the field strength tensor) does not change the EOM, since this corresponds to adding a total derivative term to the action. However when computing...

    Electric field strength at a point due to 3 charges

    I got E. 13q as the answer. That is what i did: The electric field due to +q at origin 0 should equal the electric fields of charges -3q and the new charge placed at 2x. So applying the equation above like this; k*(q) / (2^2) = -3q*k + (k*C)/ 4 solving for C the new charge added, gives 13q. I...
