The present investigation deals with the propagation of waves in the layer of an anisotropic fibre reinforced thermoelastic solid. Secular equations for symmetric and skew-symmetric modes of wave propagation in completely separate terms are derived. The amplitude of displacements and temperature distribution were also obtained. Finally, the numerical solution was carried out for Cobalt material...

We consider the one-dimensional Willmore equation subject to Navier boundary conditions, i.e. the position and the curvature are prescribed on the boundary. In a previous work, explicit symmetric solutions to symmetric data have been constructed. Within a certain range of boundary curvatures one has precisely two symmetric solutions while for boundary curvatures outside the closure of this rang...

An integer linear program (ILP) is symmetric if its variables can be permuted without changing the structure of the problem. Areas where symmetric ILPs arise range from applied settings (scheduling on identical machines), to combinatorics (code construction), and to statistics (statistical designs construction). Relatively small symmetric ILPs are extremely difficult to solve using branch-and-c...

We study the properties of fractional differentiation with respect to the reflection symmetry in a finite interval. The representation and integration formulae are derived for symmetric and anti-symmetric fractional derivatives, both of the Riemann-Liouville and Caputo type. The action dependent on the left-sided Caputo derivatives of orders in the range (1,2) is considered and we derive the Eu...

we characterize strictly diagonal type of embeddings offinitary symmetric groups in terms of cardinality and the characteristic. namely, we prove thefollowing.let $kappa$ be an infinite cardinal. if$g=underset{i=1}{stackrel{infty}bigcup} g_i,$ where $ g_i=fsym(kappa n_i)$,$(h=underset{i=1}{stackrel{infty}bigcup}h_i, $ where $ h_i=alt(kappa n_i) ), $ is a group of strictly diagonal type and$xi=(...

Construction of simultaneous confidence bands for a percentile line in linear regression has been considered by several authors. But only conservative symmetric bands, which use critical constants over the whole covariate range (−∞, ∞), are available in the literature. New methods allow the construction of exact symmetric bands for a percentile line over a finite interval of the covariate x. Th...

in this paper, the nonlinear free vibrations of thin symmetric and non-symmetric cross-ply composite plates subjected to biaxial initial stresses are investigated. because of their excellent properties such as specific strength and specific stiffness, composite plates have wide applications in aerospace and mechanical structures. based on von-karman's strain-displacement relations and using gal...

In this paper we survey various classifications of symmetric games and their characterisations under the theme of fairness; show that game bijections and game isomorphisms form groupoids; introduce matchings as a convenient characterisation of strategy triviality; and outline how to construct and partially order parameterised symmetric games with numerous examples that range over various classes.
