Hello! I'm having some trouble understanding stress and strain rations in sheet metal forming. I understand that they're constants, but how do you calculate them? Or are they usually given? Thank you!

Thank you! I didn't even realize I did that! I really appreciate it!

Hello! Can someone please tell me where I'm messing up in this problem? At 4% and 8% elongation, the loads on a tensile test-piece of half-hard aluminium alloy are 1.59 kN and 1.66 kN respectively. The test-piece has an initial width of 10 mm, thickness of 1.4 mm and gauge length of 50 mm...

Hello! I'm having some trouble determining, when trying to find the area between two curves, when to integrate with respect to y or respect to x, given two equations only? Thanks!

When you have a fraction, how do you know when to use iteration by parts, or use substituion, pick a u, solve for a value of x (like x=u-2) and then plug in those values?

Homework Statement Integrate dx/((x^2+1)^2) Homework Equations Tan^2=sec^2-1 The Attempt at a Solution So I let x=tanx then dx=sec^2x Then plugging everything in; Sec^2(x)/(tan^2+1)^2 So it's sec^2/(sec^2x)^2) which is sec^2x/sec^4x Canceling out the sec^2 gives...

This is more geared towards those who have been involved in hiring new professors, but is it common to see an applicant with all three degrees from the same university? Does it look bad if they do? The university I'm currently at has some prestigious faculty (I was talking to one of the...

Oops! It should have been 2yy'sin(x)+y^2cosx

I really enjoy math and worked hard to get my grades up. I'm a soon to be sophomore right now and I had issues with Calc 1 and got a 2.4 in it. I had a hard time adjusting to college, had to repeat it. Obviously I'm not happy with how I did and am dissapointed in myself. Is Grad School for Math...

My college has just started a math club, and I'm one of the officers, but we have no idea what to do for meetings? It's composed of freshmen through seniors and mostly math or engineering majors. Thanks!

Question for anyone who has been on a Math professor hiring committee? When you were applicants, was it positive, negative or neither if the applicant had all three degrees from the same university?

I'm a Math and Mechanical Engineering double major who is considering graduate school for Math in the future. If I have always been interested in epidemiology and combining my love of math with my love of engineering, should I get my phd in applied math? Thanks!

Honestly, I'm still an undergrad whose just starting, so it'll be 10-12 years before I would be trying to get a job in academia. Isn't there a good chance things could shift for the positive by then?

I'm referring to the US and thank you for the link!

Will it be easier to find a job as a Math professor in future years or harder? I've always wanted to be a Math professor, but recently it seems as if there are more PhDs than academia spots...
