Aperiodic Order: Crystallography and Almost Periodicity (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications #166)
by Michael Baake Uwe GrimmQuasicrystals are non-periodic solids that were discovered in 1982 by Dan Shechtman, Nobel Prize Laureate in Chemistry 2011. The mathematics that underlies this discovery or that proceeded from it, known as the theory of Aperiodic Order, is the subject of this comprehensive multi-volume series. This second volume begins to develop the theory in more depth. A collection of leading experts, among them Robert V. Moody, cover various aspects of crystallography, generalising appropriately from the classical case to the setting of aperiodically ordered structures. A strong focus is placed upon almost periodicity, a central concept of crystallography that captures the coherent repetition of local motifs or patterns, and its close links to Fourier analysis. The book opens with a foreword by Jeffrey C. Lagarias on the wider mathematical perspective and closes with an epilogue on the emergence of quasicrystals, written by Peter Kramer, one of the founders of the field.
Aperiodic Order: A Mathematical Invitation
by Michael Baake Uwe GrimmQuasicrystals are non-periodic solids that were discovered in 1982 by Dan Shechtman, Nobel Prize Laureate in Chemistry 2011. The underlying mathematics, known as the theory of aperiodic order, is the subject of this comprehensive multi-volume series. This first volume provides a graduate-level introduction to the many facets of this relatively new area of mathematics. Special attention is given to methods from algebra, discrete geometry and harmonic analysis, while the main focus is on topics motivated by physics and crystallography. In particular, the authors provide a systematic exposition of the mathematical theory of kinematic diffraction. Numerous illustrations and worked-out examples help the reader to bridge the gap between theory and application. The authors also point to more advanced topics to show how the theory interacts with other areas of pure and applied mathematics.

APM Salary and Market Trends Survey 2021
by Association for Project ManagementOur Salary and Market Trends Survey took place in November 2020 against a backdrop that few could have predicted 12 months before. Working with YouGov, the survey captured not only the facts and figures shaping the project profession, but also created a snapshot of a profession dealing with the impact of a global pandemic. We are able to better understand how the longer-term trends of a younger, more diverse profession were combining with the short-term shock brought about by coronavirus. The result is a useful picture of a profession holding steady in the face of some serious adversity. For most the impact has not been as bad as some may have feared and that the profession as a whole remains optimistic about its ability to navigate a difficult time. While expectations for growth may have been tempered, a strong sense of resilience and steadfastness shines through the 2,626 responses. Please note, whole numbers are used for the report, so some figures may not add up to 100 per cent due to rounding. The median has been used as the average for salaries, unless stated.
APOS Theory: A Framework for Research and Curriculum Development in Mathematics Education
by Maria Trigueros Kirk Weller Jim Cottrill Asuman Oktaç Solange Roa Fuentes Ed Dubinsky Ilana ArnonIn spite of the fact that APOS Theory has been used extensively in numerous scholarly publications, in the design of textbooks, and in teaching practice, there is no single references that contains all the relevant information about its components, and provides guidance about its application. The goal of this book is to present the main elements of APOS theory. It should be useful for researchers who work with, or would like to learn more about, this theoretical approach, people who are interested in the way which mathematical conceptions are constructed according to this theory, Mathematics Education researchers, graduate students in Mathematics Education, and Mathematics instructors.
Appalachian Set Theory 2006-2012
by James Cummings Ernest SchimmerlingThis volume takes its name from a popular series of intensive mathematics workshops hosted at institutions in Appalachia and surrounding areas. At these meetings, internationally prominent set theorists give one-day lectures that focus on important new directions, methods, tools and results so that non-experts can begin to master these and incorporate them into their own research. Each chapter in this volume was written by the workshop leaders in collaboration with select student participants, and together they represent most of the meetings from the period 2006-2012. Topics covered include forcing and large cardinals, descriptive set theory, and applications of set theoretic ideas in group theory and analysis, making this volume essential reading for a wide range of researchers and graduate students.
Application and Extension of Numerical Methods in Heating Pipeline
by Qian XuThis book is a summary of the author's pioneering work on the theory of heating pipelines and its application expansion over the years, trying to establish a complete logical system from the basic theory of pipelines to the application of heating pipelines to the innovation and expansion of large-diameter energy transmission pipelines. These esoteric fundamental theories are linked to practical applications, and numerical simulations are used to help readers understand the problems faced by pipelines in engineering practice. The book consists of four chapters, the first chapter describes the basic concepts of district heating system, related standards, development history, facing problems and future prospects, while for the basic characteristics of district heating pipe network installation and laying methods made an introduction; followed by the second chapter summarizes and organizes the pipeline safety research of fluid-solid heat, elastic-plasticity and other basic theories, as well as heating pipeline thermal insulation system heat loss and the economic evaluation of theory and so on. Based on the basic theory of pipeline, the third and fourth chapters introduce several typical pipeline application cases in detail, and each case includes modelling, solving, and result analysis, which can provide readers with technical references and idea guidelines in the field of pipeline research. The third chapter of the different structures of the heating pipeline from the safety and economic aspects of a detailed numerical study; the fourth chapter in the heating pipeline on the basis of energy transportation pipeline, transportation medium from the original hot water, hot steam to the oil and gas, specifically introduced various types of large-diameter energy transportation pipeline under the action of different loads of the dynamic response characteristics. It has important theoretical significance for enriching and developing the basic theory of pipeline and the expansion of all kinds of pipeline applications, and at the same time, it provides technical guidance for the safe, stable, economic and efficient operation of all kinds of long-distance pipelines, such as heating pipelines and energy transmission and transportation pipelines. It helps readers to systematically and comprehensively understand the basic theories of elasticity and plasticity, fluid-solid-thermal coupling, and economic evaluation of pipelines, and at the same time provides readers with new research ideas and technical means from the perspective of scientific research.

Application-Inspired Linear Algebra (Springer Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics and Technology)
by Heather A. Moon Thomas J. Asaki Marie A. SnipesThis textbook invites students to discover abstract ideas in linear algebra within the context of applications. Diffusion welding and radiography, the two central applications, are introduced early on and used throughout to frame the practical uses of important linear algebra concepts. Students will learn these methods through explorations, which involve making conjectures and answering open-ended questions. By approaching the subject in this way, new avenues for learning the material emerge: For example, vector spaces are introduced early as the appropriate setting for the applied problems covered; and an alternative, determinant-free method for computing eigenvalues is also illustrated. In addition to the two main applications, the authors also describe possible pathways to other applications, which fall into three main areas: Data and image analysis (including machine learning); dynamical modeling; and optimization and optimal design. Several appendices are included as well, one of which offers an insightful walkthrough of proof techniques. Instructors will also find an outline for how to use the book in a course. Additional resources can be accessed on the authors’ website, including code, data sets, and other helpful material. Application-Inspired Linear Algebra will motivate and immerse undergraduate students taking a first course in linear algebra, and will provide instructors with an indispensable, application-first approach.

Application of Geometric Algebra to Electromagnetic Scattering: The Clifford-Cauchy-Dirac Technique
by Andrew SeagarThis work presents the Clifford-Cauchy-Dirac (CCD) technique for solving problems involving the scattering of electromagnetic radiation from materials of all kinds. It allows anyone who is interested to master techniques that lead to simpler and more efficient solutions to problems of electromagnetic scattering than are currently in use. The technique is formulated in terms of the Cauchy kernel, single integrals, Clifford algebra and a whole-field approach. This is in contrast to many conventional techniques that are formulated in terms of Green's functions, double integrals, vector calculus and the combined field integral equation (CFIE). Whereas these conventional techniques lead to an implementation using the method of moments (MoM), the CCD technique is implemented as alternating projections onto convex sets in a Banach space. The ultimate outcome is an integral formulation that lends itself to a more direct and efficient solution than conventionally is the case, and applies without exception to all types of materials. On any particular machine, it results in either a faster solution for a given problem or the ability to solve problems of greater complexity. The Clifford-Cauchy-Dirac technique offers very real and significant advantages in uniformity, complexity, speed, storage, stability, consistency and accuracy.
