Symmetry groups in nonlinear elasticity: An exercise in vintage mathematics
This manuscript aims at characterizing energy densities and constitutive laws of transversely isotropic materials, orthotropic elastic materials and materials with non orthogonal families of fibers. It makes explicit references to results that are scattered over the literature and, although said to be well-known, are not always easy to locate. Direct proofs that are thought to be new and simpli...
متن کاملMathematics in Art and Architecture Gek1518 Symmetry and Patterns
In this chapter, we are interested in the underlying structure of aesthetically pleasing plane figures. By a plane figure, we mean any subset of the plane. To understand the underlying structure, we examine the symmetries of the figure. An isometry of the plane is a distance-preserving transformation of the plane. This means that for any pair of points P and Q, the distance between the images u...
متن کاملCreating Symmetry : The Artful Mathematics of Wallpaper Patterns
This new book by Frank A. Farris, professor of mathematics at Santa Clara University, is a comprehensive introduction to the mathematics of symmetry. Symmetry has long provided a connection between mathematics and the visual arts. This book distinguishes itself from other treatments of the subject (e.g., [9], [5], and [1]) by its detailed descriptions of exactly how one creates new artistic des...
متن کاملThe trace of realistic mathematics education in the school mathematics in Iran
Abstract: In the late 70's, in reaction to both "New Math" movement in the United States and "mechanistic mathematics education" approach to mathematics education in Netherland, Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) has been introduced by Freudenthal and his colleagues. In this educational approach, Freudenthal considered mathematics as a human activity. Based on this approach, education should...
متن کاملMathematics Teachers’ Approaches to “Listening” in Mathematics Classes: A phenomenographic approach
The ways that mathematics teachers listen to students’ explanation, influence their understanding of students and their teaching activities. If teachers be informed about different ways of “listening” to students’ ideas and conceptions concerning mathematics, they might be able to use listening as an effective teaching method to enhance students’ mathematical learning. The related literature in...
