  2. Screw theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_theory

    Let P be the point of application of the force F and let P be the vector locating this point in a fixed frame. The wrench W = (F, P × F) is a screw. The resultant force and moment obtained from all the forces F i, i = 1, ..., n, acting on a rigid body is simply the sum of the individual wrenches W i, that is

  3. Vector calculus identities - Wikipedia

    The dotted vector, in this case B, is differentiated, while the (undotted) A is held constant. The utility of the Feynman subscript notation lies in its use in the derivation of vector and tensor derivative identities, as in the following example which uses the algebraic identity C⋅(A×B) = (C×A)⋅B:

  4. Multivariate random variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_random_variable

    where β is a postulated fixed but unknown vector of k response coefficients, and e is an unknown random vector reflecting random influences on the dependent variable. By some chosen technique such as ordinary least squares , a vector β ^ {\displaystyle {\hat {\beta }}} is chosen as an estimate of β, and the estimate of the vector e , denoted ...

    Let be a domain (an open and connected set) in .Let be the Laplace operator, let be a bounded function on the boundary, and consider the problem: {() =, = (),It can be shown that if a solution exists, then () is the expected value of () at the (random) first exit point from for a canonical Brownian motion starting at .

  6. Resultant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resultant

    Macaulay's resultant is a polynomial in the coefficients of these n homogeneous polynomials that vanishes if and only if the polynomials have a common non-zero solution in an algebraically closed field containing the coefficients, or, equivalently, if the n hyper surfaces defined by the polynomials have a common zero in the n –1 dimensional ...

  7. Vector algebra relations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_algebra_relations

    The following are important identities in vector algebra.Identities that only involve the magnitude of a vector ‖ ‖ and the dot product (scalar product) of two vectors A·B, apply to vectors in any dimension, while identities that use the cross product (vector product) A×B only apply in three dimensions, since the cross product is only defined there.

  8. Vector optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_optimization

    Vector optimization is a subarea of mathematical optimization where optimization problems with a vector-valued objective functions are optimized with respect to a given partial ordering and subject to certain constraints.

  9. Parallelogram of force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram_of_force

    Figure 1: Parallelogram construction for adding vectors. This construction has the same result as moving F 2 so its tail coincides with the head of F 1, and taking the net force as the vector joining the tail of F 1 to the head of F 2. This procedure can be repeated to add F 3 to the resultant F 1 + F 2, and so forth.
