MATH 308 A PROJECT : An Interesting Application of Linear Algebra
نویسنده
چکیده
This report discusses the ways in which Linear Algebra is applied to the manipulation of an object in three-space. This topic has a variety of useful applications, in fields ranging from Computer Animation to Aerospace Engineering. Specifically, the “object” considered in this paper is the Space Shuttle. The linear algebra topics necessary for this analysis include orthogonal coordinate systems and rotation matrices.

1 Jared Kirkham Math 308 Project Autumn 2001
I have chosen to explore how linear algebra can be applied to genetics. More specifically, I will focus entirely on the phenomena of autosomal inheritance. My goal is to show how linear algebra can be used to predict the genotype distribution of a particular trait in a population after any number of generations from only the genotype distribution of the initial population. In order to perform s...

متن کاملOn semi maximal filters in BL-algebras
In this paper, first we study the semi maximal filters in linear $BL$-algebras and we prove that any semi maximal filter is a primary filter. Then, we investigate the radical of semi maximal filters in $BL$-algebras. Moreover, we determine the relationship between this filters and other types of filters in $BL$-algebras and G"{o} del algebra. Specially, we prove that in a G"{o}del algebra, any ...
متن کاملOn some open problems in cone metric space over Banach algebra
In this paper we prove an analogue of Banach and Kannan fixed point theorems by generalizing the Lipschitz constat $k$, in generalized Lipschitz mapping on cone metric space over Banach algebra, which are answers for the open problems proposed by Sastry et al, [K. P. R. Sastry, G. A. Naidu, T. Bakeshie, Fixed point theorems in cone metric spaces with Banach algebra cones, Int. J. of Math. Sci. ...
متن کاملA Comprehensive Probability Project for the Upper Division One-Semester Probability Course Using Yahtzee
This article describes a probability project used in an upper division, one-semester probability course with third-semester calculus and linear algebra prerequisites. The student learning outcome focused on developing the skills necessary for approaching projectsized math/stat application problems. These skills include appropriately defining terms, making necessary simplifying assumptions, budg...
