Structural dynamicsStructural dynamics is a type of structural analysis which covers the behavior of a structure subjected to dynamic (actions having high acceleration) loading. Dynamic loads include people, wind, waves, traffic, earthquakes, and blasts. Any structure can be subjected to dynamic loading. Dynamic analysis can be used to find dynamic displacements, time history, and modal analysis. Structural analysis is mainly concerned with finding out the behavior of a physical structure when subjected to force.
Matrice (mathématiques)thumb|upright=1.5 En mathématiques, les matrices sont des tableaux d'éléments (nombres, caractères) qui servent à interpréter en termes calculatoires, et donc opérationnels, les résultats théoriques de l'algèbre linéaire et même de l'algèbre bilinéaire. Toutes les disciplines étudiant des phénomènes linéaires utilisent les matrices. Quant aux phénomènes non linéaires, on en donne souvent des approximations linéaires, comme en optique géométrique avec les approximations de Gauss.
Image momentIn , computer vision and related fields, an image moment is a certain particular weighted average (moment) of the image pixels' intensities, or a function of such moments, usually chosen to have some attractive property or interpretation. Image moments are useful to describe objects after . Simple properties of the image which are found via image moments include area (or total intensity), its centroid, and information about its orientation. For a 2D continuous function f(x,y) the moment (sometimes called "raw moment") of order (p + q) is defined as for p,q = 0,1,2,.
