where a, b, and c are numerical constants and c is not equal to zero. Note that if c were zero, the function would be linear. An advantage of this notation is that it can easily be generalized by ...

Quadratic functions are essential in the world of mathematics and have a wide range of applications in various fields, such as physics, engineering, and finance. An inverse function can be thought of ...

Abstract: Calculating the first-arrival traveltimes of quasi-compressional (qP) waves has important applications in geophysics. In practice, geophysical problems often involve extensive calculations ...

All quadratic functions have the same type of curved graphs with a line of symmetry. The graph of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c \) has a minimum turning point when \(a \textgreater 0 \) ...

This project is a Quadratic Equation Solver implemented in x86 assembly language. The program reads the coefficients of a quadratic equation of the form: ax^2+bx+c from the user, computes the ...

Abstract: The normal distribution is used to describe quality characteristic in the classical Taguchi model. However, it is inappropriate for the normal distribution to be applied in many situations.

In the study of production scheduling to meet random fluctuations in supply and demand, a probabilistic measure of effectiveness can be used. This measure is a piecewise quadratic positive definite ...

A damage detection method based on the quadratic correlation function of strain responses (QCoS) and pattern matching degree (PMD) is proposed in the present study. For this method, only QCoS is ...
