AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on simplifying the boolean equation ~A~C + ~ABC + ~BC. The original poster suggests factoring out ~A from the first two terms but is seeking further assistance. They express familiarity with Karnaugh maps but indicate their professor prefers using boolean laws for simplification. Participants recommend reviewing boolean algebra principles and suggest specific laws that could aid in the simplification process. The conversation emphasizes the need for clear strategies in applying these laws to achieve a simplified expression.

Hi guys I need some strategies in simplifying this boolean equation please.

~=not
My problem is: ~A~C + ~ABC + ~BC

My first idea was to factor out ~A from the first two terms so I get : ~A(~C + BC) + ~BC)

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Are you familiar with Karnaugh maps? They can help you simplify these sorts of expressions very quickly.
 
Well I am a little familiar with it but not enough. My professor wants us to use the boolean laws to simplify these. Thats what I need help using. I've been stumped on this one for too long

Thread 'Have I solved this structural engineering equation correctly?'

Hi all, I have a structural engineering book from 1979. I am trying to follow it as best as I can. I have come to a formula that calculates the rotations in radians at the rigid joint that requires an iterative procedure. This equation comes in the form of: $$ x_i = \frac {Q_ih_i + Q_{i+1}h_{i+1}}{4K} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i-1} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i+1} $$ Where: ## Q ## is the horizontal storey shear ## h ## is the storey height ## K = (6G_i + C_i + C_{i+1}) ## ## G = \frac {I_g}{h} ## ## C...
