y C, y T are the distances from the PNA to their centroids. Plastic section modulus and elastic section modulus can be related by a shape factor k: = = This is an indication of a section's capacity beyond the yield strength of material. The shape factor for a rectangular section is 1.5. [1]
The old coordinates (x, y, z) of a point Q are related to its new coordinates (x′, y′, z′) by [14] [′ ′ ′] = [ ] []. Generalizing to any finite number of dimensions, a rotation matrix A {\displaystyle A} is an orthogonal matrix that differs from the identity matrix in at most four elements.
The sum of the entries along the main diagonal (the trace), plus one, equals 4 − 4(x 2 + y 2 + z 2), which is 4w 2. Thus we can write the trace itself as 2w 2 + 2w 2 − 1; and from the previous version of the matrix we see that the diagonal entries themselves have the same form: 2x 2 + 2w 2 − 1, 2y 2 + 2w 2 − 1, and 2z 2 + 2w 2 − 1. So ...
If a = 0 and b ≠ 0, the line is horizontal and has equation y = -c/b. The distance from (x 0, y 0) to this line is measured along a vertical line segment of length |y 0 - (-c/b)| = |by 0 + c| / |b| in accordance with the formula. Similarly, for vertical lines (b = 0) the distance between the same point and the line is |ax 0 + c| / |a|, as ...
Continuous charge distribution. The volume charge density ρ is the amount of charge per unit volume (cube), surface charge density σ is amount per unit surface area (circle) with outward unit normal n̂, d is the dipole moment between two point charges, the volume density of these is the polarization density P.
Here the coefficient A is the amplitude, x 0, y 0 is the center, and σ x, σ y are the x and y spreads of the blob. The figure on the right was created using A = 1, x 0 = 0, y 0 = 0, σ x = σ y = 1.
This dependence on microscopic variables is the central point of statistical mechanics. With a model of the microscopic constituents of a system, one can calculate the microstate energies, and thus the partition function, which will then allow us to calculate all the other thermodynamic properties of the system.
Note: The conditional expected values E( X | Z) and E( Y | Z) are random variables whose values depend on the value of Z. Note that the conditional expected value of X given the event Z = z is a function of z. If we write E( X | Z = z) = g(z) then the random variable E( X | Z) is g(Z). Similar comments apply to the conditional covariance.
