Students often get confused trying to find upper and lower bounds of intervals. This lesson from Colin Foster will help avoid ...

To describe all the possible values that a rounded number could be, we use lower and upper bounds. The lower bound is the smallest value that would round up to the estimated value. The upper bound ...

Calculation of exact forces to cause plastic deformation in metal forming processes is often difficult. Exact solutions must be both statically and kinematically admissible. That means they must be ...

In the following two chapters we shall discuss in more detail some of the basic techniques of applying these upper- and lower-bound theorems. Herein we shall illustrate the applications of these ...
