This paper addresses the problems of fourth and fifth order double Burmester points. It also presents a general treatment to elaborate Mueller’s concepts on the highest attainable order of straight lines. The treatment is made possible with the derivation of a bi-quadratic equation whose four roots representing the four Burmester points in a planar motion. The subjects are complex but the treatment is simple and no complex geometry is involved. The results are general and applicable to any general planar motion rather than limited to four-bar linkages. Simple synthesis techniques are demonstrated in examples and the inverse Euler-Savary equation is introduced as a convenient feature in synthesis.

Shear strength reduction finite element method (SSRFEM) has been a main technique for stability analysis of slope. Although SSRFEM has advantages to deal with complex geometry and nonlinear material, the criteria for failure is still argued. Ideal elastoplastic model and rheological model were both adopted, and the results of computation showed that using the intersection of two straight lines as failure point was more appropriate. The usage and advantage of two different material models was compared.

We study the local convergence analysis of a fifth order method and its multi-step version in Banach spaces. The hypotheses used are based on the first Fréchet-derivative only. The new approach provides a computable radius of convergence, error bounds on the distances involved, and estimates on the uniqueness of the solution. Such estimates are not provided in the approaches using Taylor expansions of higher order derivatives, which may not exist or may be very expensive or impossible to compute. Numerical examples are provided to validate the theoretical results. Convergence domains of the methods are also checked through complex geometry shown by drawing basins of attraction. The boundaries of the basins show fractal-like shapes through which the basins are symmetric.

The problem for construction of straight lines, which are tangent to conics, is among the dual problems for constructing the common elements of two conics. For example, the problem for construction of a chordal straight line (a common chord for two conics) ~ the problem for construction of an intersection point for two conics’ common tangents. In this paper a new property of polar lines has been presented, constructive connection between polar lines and chordal straight lines has been indicated, and a new way for construction of two conics’ common chords has been given, taking into account the computer graphics possibilities. The construction of imaginary tangent lines to conic, traced from conic’s interior point, as well as the construction of common imaginary tangent lines to two conics, of which one lies inside another partially or thoroughly is considered. As you know, dual problems with two conics can be solved by converting them into two circles, followed by a reverse transition from the circles to the original conics. This method of solution provided some clarity in understanding the solution result. The procedure for transition from two conics to two circles then became itself the subject of research. As and when the methods for solving geometric problems is improved, the problems themselves are become more complex. When assuming the participation of imaginary images in complex geometry, it is necessary to abstract more and more. In this case, the perception of the obtained result’s geometric picture is exposed to difficulties. In this regard, the solution methods’ correctness and imaginary images’ visualization are becoming relevant. The paper’s main results have been illustrated by the example of the same pair of conics: a parabola and a circle. Other pairs of affine different conics (ellipse and hyperbola) have been considered in the paper as well in order to demonstrate the general properties of conics, appearing in investigated operations. Has been used a model of complex figures, incorporating two superimposed planes: the Euclidean plane for real figures, and the pseudo-Euclidean plane for imaginary algebraic figures and their imaginary complements.

The binary quadratic equation () representing the hyperbola is studied for its non-zero distinct integer solutions. A few interesting properties among the solutions are presented. Employing the integer solutions of the equation under consideration, integer solutions for special straight lines, hyperbolas and parabolas are exhibited.

To locate a locally-unique solution of a nonlinear equation, the local convergence analysis of a derivative-free fifth order method is studied in Banach space. This approach provides radius of convergence and error bounds under the hypotheses based on the first Fréchet-derivative only. Such estimates are not introduced in the earlier procedures employing Taylor’s expansion of higher derivatives that may not exist or may be expensive to compute. The convergence domain of the method is also shown by a visual approach, namely basins of attraction. Theoretical results are endorsed via numerical experiments that show the cases where earlier results cannot be applicable.

For a family of discontinuous 3-dim homogeneous piecewise linear dynamical systems with two zones, we investigate the number of invariant cones and the existence of periodic orbits as a spatial relationship between the invariant manifolds of the subsystem changes. By studying the number of real roots of a quadratic equation induced by slopes of half straight lines starting from the origin in required domain, we obtain complete results on the number and stability of invariant cones. Especially, we prove that the maximum number of invariant cones is two, and obtain complete parameter regions on which there exist one or two invariant cones, on which one or two fake cones (corresponding to real roots of the quadratic equation that are not in the required domain) appear and on which an invariant cone will be foliated by periodic orbits.

Domains visible by transmission electron microscopy, believed to be Dauphiné inversion twins, were found in some specimens of synthetic quartz heated to 680°C and cooled to room temperature. With the electron beam close to parallel to the [0001] direction the domain boundaries appeared as straight lines normal to <100> and <410> or <510> directions. In the selected area diffraction mode, a shift of the Kikuchi lines was observed when the electron beam was made to traverse the specimen across a boundary. This shift indicates a change in orientation which accounts for the visibility of the domain by diffraction contrast when the specimen is tilted. Upon exposure to a 100 KV electron beam with a flux of 5x 1018 electrons/cm2sec the boundaries are rapidly decorated by radiation damage centers appearing as black spots. Similar crystallographio boundaries were sometimes found in unannealed (0001) quartz damaged by electrons.
