Taking the mid-span/center-point of the structure as the reference point of capturing the maximum dynamic response is very customary in the available literature of the moving load problems. In this article, the absolute maximum dynamic response of an Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to a moving mass is widely investigated for various boundary conditions of the base beam. The response of the beam is obtained by utilizing a robust numerical method so-called OPSEM (Orthonormal Polynomial Series Expansion Method). It is underlined that the absolute maximum dynamic response of the beam does not necessarily take place at the mid-span of the beam and thus the conventional analysis needs modifications. Therefore, a comprehensive parametric survey of the base beam absolute maximum dynamic response is represented in which the contribution of the velocity and weight of the moving inertial objects are scrutinized and compared to the conventional version (maximum at mid-span).

Working with the various special functions of mathematical physics and applied mathematics we often encounter inverse relations of the type $F_n(x)=\sum\limits_{k=0}^{n}A^n_kG_k(x)$ and $ G_n(x)=\sum\limits_{k=0}^{n}B_k^nF_k(x)$, where 0, 1, 2,$\cdots$. Here $F_n(x)$, $G_n(x)$ denote special polynomial functions, and $A_k^n$, $B_k^n$ denote coefficients found by use of the orthogonal properties of $F_n(x)$ and $G_n(x)$, or by skillful series manipulations. Typically $G_n(x)=x^n$ and $F_n(x)=P_n(x)$, the n-th Legendre polynomial. We give a collection of inverse series pairs of the type $f(n)=\sum\limits_{k=0}^{n}A_k^ng(k)$ if and only if $g(n)=\sum\limits_{k=0}^{n}B_k^nf(k)$, each pair being based on some reasonably well-known special function. We also state and prove an interesting generalization of a theorem of Rainville in this form.

The pointwise equilibrium polynomial (PEP) element considering local second-order effect has been widely used in direct analysis of many practical engineering structures. However, it was derived according to Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and therefore it cannot consider shear deformation, which may lead to inaccurate prediction for deep beams. In this paper, a novel beam-column element based on Timoshenko beam theory is proposed to overcome the drawback of PEP element. A fifth-order polynomial is adopted for the lateral deflection of the proposed element, while a quadric shear strain field based on equilibrium equation is assumed for transverse shear deformation. Further, an additional quadric function is adopted in this new element to account for member initial geometrical imperfection. In conjunction with a reliable and effective three-dimensional (3D) co-rotational technique, the proposed element can consider both member initial imperfection and transverse shear deformation for second-order direct analysis of frame structures. Some benchmark problems are provided to demonstrate the accuracy and high performance of the proposed element. The significant adverse influence on structural behaviors due to shear deformation and initial imperfection is also discussed.

In recent years, there have been an increasing number of experimental studies showing the need to include robustness criteria in the design process to develop complex active control designs for practical implementation. The paper investigates the crosswind aerodynamic parameters after the blocking phase of a two-dimensional square cross-section structure by measuring the response in wind tunnel tests under light wind flow conditions. To improve the accuracy of the results, the interpolation of the experimental curves in the time domain and the analytical responses were numerically optimized to finalize the results. Due to this combined effect, the three aerodynamic parameters decrease with increasing wind speed and asymptotically affect the upper branch constants. This means that the aerodynamic parameters along the density distribution are minimal. Taylor series are utilized to describe the fuzzy nonlinear plant and derive the stability analysis using polynomial function for analyzing the aerodynamic parameters and numerical simulations. Due to it will yield intricate terms to ensure stability criterion, therefore we aim to avoid kinds issues by proposing a polynomial homogeneous framework and utilizing Euler's functions for homogeneous systems. Finally, we solve the problem of stabilization under the consideration by SOS (sum of squares) and assign its fuzzy controller based on the feasibility of demonstration of a nonlinear system as an example.

This paper examines finite rotation angle (FRA) applications for spacecraft attitude control. The coordinate transformation matrix and the attitude kinematics represented by FRAs are introduced. The interpolation techniques for the angular orientations are thoroughly investigated using the FRAs and the results are compared to those using traditional methods. The paper proposes trajectory description techniques by using extremely smooth polynomial functions of time, which can describe point-to-point attitude maneuvers in a realizable and accurate manner with the help of unique FRA features. In addition, new controller design techniques using the FRAs are developed by combining the proposed interpolation techniques with a model predictive control framework. The proposed techniques are validated through their attitude control applications for an aggressive point-to-point maneuver. Conclusively, the FRAs provide much more flexibility than quaternions and Euler angles when describing kinematics, generating trajectories, and designing attitude controllers for spacecraft.

A two-step method is presented for the optimum design of trusses with available sections under stress and Euler buckling constraints. The shape design of the truss is used as a means to convert the discrete solution into a continuous one. In the first step of the method, a continuous solution is obtained by sizing and shape design using an approximate polynomial expression for the buckling coefficients. In the second step, the member sizes obtained are changed to the nearest available sections and the truss is reconfigured by using the exact values for the buckling coefficients. The optimizer used is based on the sequential quadratic programming and the gradients are evaluated in closed form. The method is illustrated by two numerical examples.

RSA is one of the best well-known public key cryptosystems. This methodology is widely used at present because there is not any algorithm which can break this system that has all strong parameters within polynomial time. However, it may be easily broken when at least one parameter is weak. In fact, many weak parameters are already found and are solved by some algorithms. Some examples of weak parameters consist of a small private key, a large private key, a small prime factor and a small result of the difference between two prime factors. In this paper, the new weakness of RSA is proposed. Assuming Euler's totient value, Φ (n), can be rewritten as Φ (n) = ad + b, where d is the private key and a, b ∈ ℤ, if a divides both of Φ (n) and b and the new exponent for the decryption equation is a small integer, this condition is assigned as the new weakness for breaking RSA. Firstly, the specific algorithm which is created for this weakness directly is proposed. Secondly, two equations are presented to find a, b and d. In fact, one of two equations must be implemented to find a and b at first. After that, the other equation is chosen to find d. The experimental results show that if this weakness has happened and the new exponent is small, original plaintext, m, will be recovered very fast. Furthermore, number of steps to recover d are very small when a is large. However, if a is too large, d may not be recovered because m which must be always written as m = h^a is higher than modulus.

In everyday life, the ratio of credit card aspect ratio is 1: 1.56, and A4 printer paper is 1: 1.414, which is relatively balanced golden ratio. In this paper, we show the Fibonacci Golden ratio as a polynomial based on the golden ratio, which is the most balanced and ideal visible ratio, and show that the application of Euler and symmetric jacket polynomial is related to BPSK and QPSK constellation. As a proof method, we have derived Fibonacci Golden and Galois field element polynomials. Then mathematically, We have newly derived a golden jacket code that can be used to generate an appropriate code with orthogonal properties and can simply be used for inverse calculation. We also obtained a channel capacity according to the channel correlation change using a block jacket matrix in a MIMO mobile communication.

To analyze the performance of the gas circuit breaker(GCB), the flow field variables such as temperature, pressure and density should be evaluated accurately In the puffer chamber of puffer type GCB, the pressure rise may Exceed 20 bar and in this range of high pressure, $SF_6$ gas deviates the ideal gas property. Therefore, the real gas property of $SF_6$ should be taken into consideration for the accurate analysis of flow field. This paper presents the analysis technique of cold gas flow in GCB employing the real gas state equation of SF6. The FVFLIC method is Employed to solve the axisymmetric Euler equation. To reduce the computational effort of real gas state equation, the relationship between density and pressure is approximated by the polynomial at the temperature of 300K. The proposed method is applied to the test GCB model and simulation results show good agreement with the experimental ones.

A locally varying temperature field or a mixture of two or more different materials can cause local variation of elasticity properties of a beam. In this paper, a new Euler-Bernoulli beam element with varying Young's modulus along its longitudinal axis is presented. The influence of axial forces according to the linearized 2nd order beam theory is considered, as well. The stiffness matrix of this element contains the transfer constants which depend on Young's modulus variation and on axial forces. Occurrence of the polynomial variation of Young's modulus has been assumed. Such approach can be also used for smooth local variation of Young's modulus. The critical loads of the straight slender columns were studied using the new beam element. The influence of position of the local Young's modulus variation and its type (such as linear, quadratic, etc.) on the critical load value and rate of convergence was investigated. The obtained results based on the new beam element were compared with ANSYS solutions, where the number of elements gradually increased. Our results show significant influence of the locally varying Young's modulus on the critical load value and the convergence rate.
