Thirty years of shape theory ∗
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper outlines the development of shape theory since its founding by K. Borsuk 30 years ago to the present days. As a motivation for introducing shape theory, some shortcomings of homotopy theory in dealing with spaces of irregular local behavior are described. Special attention is given to the contributions to shape theory made by the Zagreb topology group.

Graph theory based methods are powerful means for representing structural systems so that their geometry and topology can be understood clearly. The combination of graph theory based methods and some metaheuristics can offer effective solutions for complex engineering optimization problems. This paper presents a Charged System Search (CSS) algorithm for the free shape optimizations of thin-wall...

متن کاملUniform and Pointwise Shape Preserving Approximation by Algebraic Polynomials
We survey developments, over the last thirty years, in the theory of Shape Preserving Approximation (SPA) by algebraic polynomials on a finite interval. In this article, “shape” refers to (finitely many changes of) monotonicity, convexity, or q-monotonicity of a function. It is rather well known that it is possible to approximate a function by algebraic polynomials that preserve its shape (i.e....
متن کاملEffects of the asymmetric behavior of the shape memory alloy on nonlinear dynamic responses of thick sandwich plates with embedded SMA wires
In the present article, the dynamic behavior of sandwich plates with embedded shape memory alloy (SMA) wires is evaluated for two cases wherein (i) the stress-strain curve of the superelastic behavior of the SMA wires is symmetric and (ii) the mentioned curve is non-symmetric. A modified version of Brinson’s constitutive model is proposed and used. The high non-linearity in the behavior stems f...

More than 50 years ago Friedman and Savage stated that investors who purchase lottery tickets (risk taking behavior), buy insurance coverage (risk averse behavior) at the same time. They proposed an “S” shape utility function that features concave as loss and convex as winning. Eisenhauer and many other researchers have confirmed risk behavior as suggested by Friedman and Savage. Shefrin and St...
