چکیده

We prove that the level sets of a real C function of two variables near a non-degenerate critical point are of class C [s/2] and apply this to the study of planar sections of surfaces close to the singular section by the tangent plane at an elliptic or hyperbolic point, and in particular at an umbilic point. We go on to use the results to study symmetry sets of the planar sections. We also analyse one of the cases coming from a degenerate critical point, corresponding to an elliptic cusp of Gauss on a surface, where the differentiability is reduced to C . However in all our applications we assume C∞ smoothness.

Level sets of functions and symmetry sets of smooth surface sections

We prove that the level sets of a real C function of two variables near a non-degenerate critical point are of class C and apply this to the study of planar sections of surfaces close to the singular section by the tangent plane at an elliptic or hyperbolic point, and in particular at an umbilic point. We also analyse the cases coming from degenerate critical points, corresponding to cusps of G...

Quantum Chemistry Study & Evaluation of Basis Set Effects on Prediction of Amino Acids Properties:

The potential energy surface of gaseous glycine determined years ago in the ab initio B3LYP/6-311++G** calculations is composed of thirteen stable conformers. We performed the ab initiomolecular orbital calculations as the starting point to carry out a force field and normal coordinatecalculation on the most stable conformer of non-zwitterionic glycine [conformer (I)]. Thecalculations were carr...

Application of tests of goodness of fit in determining the probability density function for spacing of steel sets in tunnel support system

One of the conventional methods for temporary support of tunnels is to use steel sets with shotcrete. The nature of a temporary support system demands a quick installation of its structures. As a result, the spacing between steel sets is not a fixed amount and it can be considered as a random variable. Hence, in the reliability analysis of these types of structures, the selection of an appropri...

Numerical Simulation of Free Surface Flows and Comparison of Symmetry and Real Boundary Conditions at the Free Surface

For implementation&#10 of the free surface boundary condition, a new subroutine has been introduced to an existing steady 3-D body fitted code. This code was previously written for steady flow simulation in closed ducts. The algorithm used in this subroutine reduces the instability problem according to the free surface wave generation. For code validation, it was applied to two different open c...
