Green’s theorem reinterpreted We begin with the situation obtained in Section 12C for a region R in R2 . With the positive orientation for bdR‚ we have ∂f dxdy = ∂x R f dy‚ bdR ∂g dxdy = − ∂y R gdx. bdR We now consider a vector field F = (F1 ‚ F2 ) on R‚ and we obtain from Green’s theorem ∂F1 ∂F2 + ∂x ∂y R dxdy = F1 dy − F2 dx. bdR (Notice if we were thinking in terms of Stokes’ theorem‚ we would put the minus sign on the left side instead of the right.)

My overview of Garners theory and its significance is that everybody is different‚ and has a different learning style. Garners theory is that there are seven types of intelligences and they are all separate and support learning. My understanding of each of the seven intelligences is‚ Logical mathematical intelligence is good for individuals that are good at reasoning‚ and recognizing patterns to analyze

Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering‚ The University of Nairobi. Abstract An equation for the determination of large deflections of beams is derived from first principles. Laboratory tests were carried out in order to validate the theory. The theoretical and experimental results were found to be in good agreement. Introduction In much of the study and practice of mechanical and structural engineering‚ the equations used for the determination of beam deflections are derived with
