Hello, I have got results for a modal analysis (mesh of 150 shell elements) in ascii format. I have also got (from another process) forces to apply at each element; how do it compute the deflection? I get that it's a form of summation of all the modes, but I am stuck. Thanks! BB

Hello everyone.. Here is the thing I am working on a project where I am manufacturing Furfural from bagasse. The reaction is thermodynamically possible. I took some amount of bagasse and added it to a reactor at atmospheric pressure. I then added diluted Sulphuric acid which acts as catalyst...

It seems that most recently published analysis textbooks are written from a more abstract perspective, e.g., dealing with functions on general metric spaces or with spaces of functions. However, often solving a problem requires some "get your hands dirty" classical or "hard" analysis -- for...

Hi All, I am doing some FA on SPSS. I entered 9 columns from an Excel file into SPSS. I am just not sure of how the order of the initial columns corresponds to the order of the components that have been extracted; specifically, in the "total Variance Explained" section of the outputs. Would...

Hi, I'm trying to figure out the forces Fx in the drawing I have uploaded. If I have a vertical force Fy acting on the bracket I have drawn. I know from experience that this force is going to pull my bracket horizontally but I can't figure out how I work out a horizontal force from a vertical...

This is the problem I'm currently working on: The pi groups I identified were h1, h2, d, D, g, t, and velocity, but when I looked at the solution, it selected Δh, D, t, ρ, d, ϒ, h1, with no explanation why those variables are needed. If I was solving with the Bernoulli equation, I wouldn't...

1. The problem statement: Let ##f:[a, b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}##. Prove that if ##f## is continuous, then ##f## is bounded. 2. Relevant Information This is the previous exercise. I have already proved this result, and the book states to use it to prove the next exercise. It also hints to use...

Hi All, I am trying to wrap my brain around Latent Class Analysis (LCA). In the mean time, does anyone know how to test for goodness of fit and whether a given number of classes is somehow optimal? AFAIK, Log-Likelihood should decrease as a measure of improved fit when adding latent classes...

Hi. Can someone point me to a good (and really basic) PDF file or text regarding Finite Element analysis? I would prefer it having an example where it would solve the 1D heat equation or the Laplace equation so I can extend what I know from finite difference methods to it. Sorry if this seems...

I'm looking for a good Complex book, but the options seem slim. I was thinking about Rudin's Real and Complex. My only reservation is that it is not structured like any other book I've seen. I've had advanced analysis and measure and integration theory, so rigour is not a concern. I saw Alfohr's...

I am stuck on the questions, 5.3.10 and 5.3.11 which are part of a chapter on dimensional analysis in fluid mechanics by Streeter. Question 5.3.10 (see also the attachment): It asks me for the given fluid dynamic problems, where is the inertial force not important. It lists several fluid...

Hello all. I'm a mathematics undergrad student who finished his first university year succesfully. I got courses of calculus, but these weren't very rigorous. I did learn about stuff like epsilon and delta proofs but we never made exercises on those things. The theory I saw contained proofs but...

A refrigerator operates on a Carnot cycle. In this cycles, it absorbs 120 J of energy at a temperature Tc while 300 J of work is done on the gas undergoing the cycle. How much energy is exhausted as heat during this process? The answer is 420 J. I am unsure of where to start for this...

Hello! Can someone explain to me, in real analysis, what is the difference in expanding a function as a Taylor series around 2 different point. So we have ##f(x)=\sum c_k (z-z_1)^k = \sum d_k (z-z_2)^k## and as ##k \to \infty## the series equals f in both cases, but why would one choose a point...

This is more of a concept question; if I choose different repeating parameters to someone else, say my lecturer, and got different pi groups to him/her, however my groups are still dimensionless (i.e. the units for each pi group cancel to 1), is my answer still correct?

Hello! I see that all theorems in complex analysis are talking about a function in a region of the complex plane. A region is defined as an open, connected set. If I am not wrong, the real line, based on this definition, is a region. I am a bit confused why there are so many properties of the...
