On the Forged Dice

چکیده

It is a well{known exercise in elementary probability that it is impossible to forge two ordinary dice with numbers 1;. . .; 6 in such a way that when one throws both and takes the sum one gets the numbers 2; 3;. . .; 12 all with the same probability. preceding assertion is just the statement that for m = 10, k 1 = k 2 = 5 there are no such probabilities. It will be shown how the k 1 ;. . .; k s for which P 1 ;. . .; P s exist can be described explicitly (and how the P look like in this case) in terms of the divisors of m + 1. In the case s = 2 the description reads as follows: Write m + 1 = g 1 g t and deene inductively k 0 1 := g t ? 1, k 00 1 := 0, k 0 := g t?+1 k 00 ?1 + g t?+1 ? 1, k 00 = g t?+1 k 0 g with k 1 + k 2 = m, then the tuple (k 1 ; k 2) can be obtained as (k 0 t ; k 00 t) (or (k 00 t ; k 0 t)) as above. Many devisors give rise to many families k 1 ;. . .; k s so that our description can be considered as an extension of an old result of Raikov's (which states that no k 1 ;. . .; k s exist if m + 1 is prime). Our original problem is equivalent with representing 1+x+ +x m as a product of polynomials A 1 ;. . .; A s with nonnegative coeecients. Hence we get a catalogue of all such factorizations, and the explicit form of the measures P (they are uniform on subsets of f0;. . .; k g) gives rise to an explicit description of the partition of the (m + 1){th roots of unity diierent from 1 which correspond to the factorization 1 + x + + x m = A 1 (x) A s (x).

MATHEMATICAL MODELLING FOR DICE FINDER GAME PROBLEM

Play is often episodic and mission-centric, with a series of challenges culminating in a final puzzle or enemy that must be overcome. Multiple missions played with the same characters may be related to each other in a plot arc of escalating challenges. The exact tone, structure, pace and end (if any) vary from game to game depending on the needs and preferences of the players, as in [9]. "THE C...

Study and Simulation of Shot peening Effect on Fatigue Life of a Powder Forged Connecting rod

Shot peening applies a residual compressive stress field (RCSF) on the surface of parts. It also shifts “crack nucleation sites” to sub-surface locations. A nondestructive method of measuring the stresses, Sin2ψ was utilized here and the stress values introduced to Ansys software. For this purpose, uniform stress in all directions was applied on the con rod. Loading on the rod in Ansys had thre...

Influence of Residual Stress on Fatigue Life of Hot Forged and Shot Blasted Steel Components

Hot forging is a common manufacturing process for the production of large quantities of engineering components. Residual stresses are developed in forged components as a result of various aspects of the manufacturing process, including subsequent cooling, and heat treatment. Residual stresses can significantly affect the deformation and fatigue failure of materials. Hot forged EN15R steel bars ...

Effect of Composition and MnS Addition on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Powder Forged Copper Steel Parts

In this work, the effects of carbon content and manganese sulfide addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of copper steel parts have been studied. Steel powder mixture containing 2%Cu and different graphite contents with and without MnS additions were compacted, sintered and forged to almost full density. Forged samples, with near theoretical densities, were tested for tensile,...

Effects of Ageing and Forging on Short-term Creep Behaviors of Inconel-713C Superalloy at 850 °C

In this paper, the short-term creep behavior of the Inconel-713C superalloy after different pre-treatments including the ageing and forging processes has been studied at 850 °C. The ageing heat treatment was heating at 930 °C for 16 hours without solutioning process. The optical microscopy (OM) and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques were applied for microstructural evaluations. T...
