  2. Newmark's sliding block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newmark's_sliding_block

    The method is an extension of the Newmark's direct integration method originally proposed by Nathan M. Newmark in 1943. It was applied to the sliding block problem in a lecture delivered by him in 1965 in the British Geotechnical Association's 5th Rankine Lecture in London and published later in the Association's scientific journal Geotechnique.

  3. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2). In mathematics , the conjugate gradient method is an algorithm for the numerical solution of particular systems of linear equations , namely those whose matrix is positive-semidefinite .

  4. Slope stability analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope_stability_analysis

    [1] [2] Successful design of the slope requires geological information and site characteristics, e.g. properties of soil / rock mass, slope geometry , groundwater conditions, alternation of materials by faulting , joint or discontinuity systems, movements and tension in joints, earthquake activity etc. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] The presence of water has a ...

  5. Phase-space formulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-space_formulation

    The phase-space formulation is a formulation of quantum mechanics that places the position and momentum variables on equal footing in phase space.The two key features of the phase-space formulation are that the quantum state is described by a quasiprobability distribution (instead of a wave function, state vector, or density matrix) and operator multiplication is replaced by a star product.

  6. Gaussian elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_elimination

    For example, to solve a system of n equations for n unknowns by performing row operations on the matrix until it is in echelon form, and then solving for each unknown in reverse order, requires n(n + 1)/2 divisions, (2n 3 + 3n 2 − 5n)/6 multiplications, and (2n 3 + 3n 2 − 5n)/6 subtractions, [10] for a total of approximately 2n 3 /3 operations.
