A solution of the findpath problem in which a moving object in required to avoid moving obstacles and move to the designated target in the plane is porcided via the second method of Lyapunov. This paper presents an new control designed by a family of piecewise Lyapunov functions to solve a findpath problem and gives some simultion results of that.

The contact problem of two elastic bodies of arbitrary shape with a general kernel form, investigated from Hertz problem, is reduced to an integral equation of the second kind with Cauchy kernel. A numerical method is adapted to determine the unknown potential function between the two surfaces under certain conditions. Many cases are derived and discussed from the work.

We highlight the alternative presentation of the Cauchy-Riemann conditions for the analyticity of a complex variable function and consider plane equilibrium problem for an elastic transversely isotropic layer, in finite deformation. We state the fundamental problems and consider traction boundary value problem, as an example of fundamental problem-one. A simple solution of“Lame's problem”for an infinite layer is obtained. The profile of the deformed contour is given; and this depends on the order of the term used in the power series specification for the complex potential and on the material constants of the medium.

This paper is devoted to the parallelism of a numerical matrix eigenvalue problem. The eigenproblem arises in a variety of applications, including engineering, statistics, and economics. Especially we try to approach the industrial techniques from mathematical modeling. This paper has developed a parallel algorithm to find all eigenvalues. It is contributed to solve a specific practical problem, a vibration problem in the industry. Also we compare the runtime between the serial algorithm and the parallel algorithm for the given problems.

We discuss the wellposedness of the Neumann problem on a half-space for the Kohn-Laplacian in the Heisenberg group. We then construct the Neumann function and explicitly represent the solution of the associated inhomogeneous problem.

In this paper, we investigate a time-dependent double obstacle problem associated with the model of European call option pricing with transaction costs. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a W^2,1_p,loc solution to the problem. We then characterize the behavior of the free boundaries in terms of continuity and values of limit points.

Background Phenomenography suggests that more variation is associated with wider ways of experiencing phenomena. In the discipline of mathematics, broadening the 'lived space' of mathematics learning might enhance students' ability to solve mathematics problems Aims The aim of the present study is to: 1. enhance secondary school students' capabilities for dealing with mathematical problems; and 2. examine if students' conception of mathematics can thereby be broadened. Sample 410 Secondary 1 students from ten schools participated in the study and the reference group consisted of 275 Secondary 1 students. Methods The students were provided with non-routine problems in their normal mathematics classes for one academic year. Their attitudes toward mathematics, their conceptions of mathematics, and their problem-solving performance were measured both at the beginning and at the end of the year. Results and conclusions Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that the problem-solving performance of students receiving non-routine problems improved more than that of other students, but the effect depended on the level of use of the non-routine problems and the academic standards of the students. Thus, use of non-routine mathematical problems that appropriately fits students' ability levels can induce changes in their lived space of mathematics learning and broaden their conceptions of mathematics and of mathematics learning.

In this paper, a singularly perturbed reaction-convection-diffusion problem with two parameters is considered. A parameter-uniform error bound for the numerical derivative is derived. The numerical method considered here is a standard finite difference scheme on piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh, which is fitted to both boundary and initial layers. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.

It is not too much to say that problem solving is still the focus of school mathematics though the trend of mathematics education for ten year from the one of 1980 is problem solving and the one of mathematics education for ten year from the one of 1990 is standards and constructivism. There are so many crucial clues or methods in good problem solving but I think that one of them is a representation. So, the purpose of this study is to investigate what is the meaning of representation in general and why representation is so important in elementary mathematics learning, Moreover, I have analyzed the gifted children's thinking of representation which is appeared in the previous internet home task of 40 gifted children who are selected through the examination of 1st, 2nd with paper and pencil and 3rd with practical skill and interview and finally I have presented some examples of children's representation how they use representation to model, investigate and understand special concept more easily in elementary school mathematics class.
