In this article, we described the equations of motion of a rigid solid by a matrix formulation. The matrices contained in our movement description are homogeneous to the same unit. Inertial characteristics are met in a 4x4 positive definite symmetric matrix called "tensor generalized Poinsot." This matrix consists of 3x3 positive definite symmetric matrix called "inertia tensor Poinsot", the coordinates of the center of mass multiplied by the total body mass and the total mass of the rigid body. The equations of motion are formulated as a gender skew 4x4 matrices. They summarize the "principle of fundamental dynamics". The Poinsot generalized tensor appears linearly in this equality as required by the linear dependence of the equations of motion with the ten characteristics inertia of the rigid solid.

Multivariate Beta Distribution

SummaryLet L be a positive definite symmetric matrix having a noncentral multivariate beta density of an arbitrary rank, see, e.g. Hayakawa ([2, p. 12, Equation 38]). Then an explicit procedure is given for decomposing the density of L in terms of densities of independent beta variates.

AbstractWe study special Lagrangian fibrations of SU(3)-manifolds, not necessarily torsion-free. In the case where the fiber is a unimodular Lie group G, we decompose such SU(3)-structures into triples of solder 1-forms, connection 1-forms and equivariant 3 × 3 positive-definite symmetric matrix-valued functions on principal G-bundles over 3-manifolds. As applications, we describe regular parts of G2-manifolds that admit Lagrangian-type 3-dimensional group actions by constrained dynamical systems on the spaces of the triples in the cases of G = T3 and SO(3).

Consider the linear ordinary differential equation1where x ∊ En, the n-dimensional Euclidean space and A is an n × n constant matrix. Using a matrix result of Sylvester and a stability result of Perron, Lyapunov [4] established the following theorem which is basic in the stability theory of ordinary differential equations:Theorem (Lyapunov). The following three statements are equivalent:(I) The spectrum σ(A) of A lies in the negative half plane.(II) Equation (1) is exponentially stable, i.e. there exist μ, K>0 such that every solution x(t) of (1) satisfies2where ∥ ∥ denotes the Euclidean norm.(III) There exists a positive definite symmetric matrix Q, i.e. Q=Q* and there exist q1,q2>0 such that3satisfying4where I is the identity matrix.

This study was undertaken to investigate the total body and segmental centers of mass of individuals with Down’s syndrome. The 40 subjects were divided equally by gender into the following age groups: (a) ages 6 to 10, (b) ages 11 to 18, (c) adult females, and (d) adult males. Data on mass centroid locations were collected through a photogrammetric technique. Frontal and right sagittal-view slide photographs on each subject were digitized and the data logged into a computer program. The program calculated the segmental mass centroid locations and total body center of mass. Differences in total body and segmental center of mass locations were found between individuals with Down’s syndrome (DS) and nonhandicapped individuals. Analysis of the data on the DS children indicated that the mean center of mass location for the total body was within the range reported for nonhandicapped children. The adult DS male and female subjects were found to have a lower total body center of mass when compared to existing data on nonhandicapped adults. It was also found that the segmental mass centroid locations for the head and trunk segment of DS subjects were consistently lower than those found in nonhandicapped individuals. This finding points to an overall lowering of the center of mass found with DS subjects.

Abstract We consider corner scattering for the operator ∇ · γ(x)∇ + k2ρ(x) in R2, with γ a positive definite symmetric matrix and ρ a positive scalar function. A corner is referred to one that is on the boundary of the (compact) support of γ(x) − I or ρ(x) − 1, where I stands for the identity matrix. We assume that γ is a scalar function in a small neighborhood of the corner. We show that any admissible incident field will be scattered by such corners, which are allowed to be concave. Moreover, we provide a brief discussion on the existence of non-scattering waves when γ − I has a jump across the corner. In order to prove the results, we construct a new type of complex geometric optics (CGO) solutions.
