In almost any force sensor application, forces other than the one(s) being measured will be present. These extraneous forces will invariably cause errors in the measured values through what is called ...

Dr. James McCaffrey from Microsoft Research presents a complete end-to-end demonstration of computing a matrix inverse using the Newton iteration algorithm. Compared to other algorithms, Newton ...

Inverting a matrix is one of the most common tasks in data science and machine learning. In this article I explain why inverting a matrix is very difficult and present code that you can use as-is, or ...

Introduces linear algebra and matrices, with an emphasis on applications, including methods to solve systems of linear algebraic and linear ordinary differential equations. Discusses computational ...

In my previous column (see “Editor's Picks,” at right), I discussed transverse flexural testing of a unidirectional composite as one method of evaluating the strength of the fiber/matrix interfacial ...
