Looks like you can find and characterize the turning points of the graph OK ... that will also give you clues. Or you can look up the general formula: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function Sep 16, 2012 #8 SammyS Staff Emeritus Science Advisor Homework Helper Gold Member 11,...
As will be- come clear in the next section it is convenient to define a constraint specification to be a triple (T , α, c) where T is a compositionally defined constraint generation function (like G in Table 2), c is a global constraint (absent above, hence could be taken to be 1...
In the present specification, when a compound or the like is represented by a chemical formula without specifying any specific atomic ratio, it shall include any conventionally known atomic ratio and should not necessarily be limited to what falls within a stoichiometric range. For example, for “...
The solution domain is first discretized using a piecewise mesh. The process begins by defining the cubic non-polynomial spline function and calculating its derivatives. These derivatives are then transformed into difference approximations, forming a linear system of algebraic equations in the form of a...

For 0 ≤ m≤ 3, the basis function (1) are nonnegative on the interval u∈ [0, 1], but this property is no more satisfied when m = 4. (b) Partition of Unity. The sum of the Bézier-like cubic basis functions is one on the interval u∈ [0, 1]. That is, (2) ...
The tools from Examples 9 and 12 were tested turning T-1 hardened tool steel workpieces. (Hardness=Rc58 to 60). Two sets of tests at different turning conditions were conducted. In these tests the tool edge wear was measured as a function of cutting time for both the directly converted cl...
By using Equation (14), we can approximate the exponential function in Equation (13): β 1 π exp - β 1 x 1 - α x 2 - x 0 1 - α x 0 2 e γ t 2 ∼ δ x 1 - α x 2 - x 0 1 - α x 0 2 e γ t = e - γ t ( 1 - α x 2 ) 3 2 ( 1 - α ...
