The objective of global optimization (GO) is to find the best solution of nonlinear decision models that often have a multitude of global and local optima. GO is of great ...

Thermal–hydraulic coupling between power, flow rate and density, intensified by neutronics feedback are the main drivers determining the stability behavior of a boiling ...

The modus operandi for the Spring 2000 course was that students downloaded Mathematica notebooks containing information and exercises about geometric topics from the course ...

Currently, the three most popular commercial computer algebra systems are Mathematica, Maple and Macsyma (the 3 M's). These systems provide a wide variety of symbolic ...

Formal Laurent-Puiseux series are important in many branches of mathematics. This paper presents SpecialFunctions.m (PowerSeries.m for Mathematica version 2.2), a Mathematica ...

Mathematica Teacher's Edition, designed exclusively for secondary-level math teachers, combines powerful computation, time-saving tools, and ready-to-use courseware with an ...

Knots, braids, bends, links, hitches, weaves etc. are described by d-dimensional space-curves. Their projections can be shown as 2D shadows, 2.5D knot diagrams, and 3D tubes ...

The need for combining different solvers into a system that is able to process constraints that can not be solved by a single solver is widely recognized. Of particular ...

Boundary value problems for quasilinear differential equations appear in many mathematical models nowadays. Solvability and dependence of the number of solutions on ...

When a vibrating structure is subjected to a rotation, the vibrating pattern rotates at a rate (called the precession rate) proportional to the inertial angular rate. This is ...
