...Lesson 14 progressive and eco safe driving Introduction Progressive driving is about making maximum progress for the road, traffic and weather conditions without risking safety. This requires more driving skill along with better planning and awareness, particularly when you are overtaking or negotiating bends in the road. Eco safe driving is very similar but with more emphasis on saving fuel. Lesson aims and objectives During this lesson you will learn how to overtake fast moving vehicles on a single carriageway, how to negotiate bends at speed and how to recognise when speed can result in a waste of time, energy and fuel. By the end of this lesson you should be able to: ? explain the difference between progressive driving and speeding; ? explain the conditions that are likely to result in a skid and losing control of the vehicle; ? consistently drive at such a speed that you can stop within the distance you can see to be clear; ? explain what factors need to be considered when assessing how fast a bend can be negotiated safely and the risks involved; ? identify the sharpness of a bend on approach and the most suitable speed and gear to negotiate the bend; ? demonstrate a reasonable level of skill in negotiating bends of differing shapes and complexity; ? explain the likely places it would be unsafe to overtake and why; ? demonstrate a reasonable level of skill in overtaking moving vehicles at speed on a single two way carriageway...

...MATH 4450 - HOME WORK 6 (1) Let V be an n-dimensional vector space over the field K and B be a basis for V . Let Bil(V × V, K) be the set of all bilinear maps on V × V to K. (a) Prove that there is an isomorphism Bil(V × V, K) → Matn×n (K). We proved this in class when V = Rn and B is the standard basis. As I mentioned then, the same proof goes through (almost) verbatim. So this exercise is intended to make sure that you understand the various concepts involved. So first define the map and then show it is injective and surjective. (b) Let V ∗ be the dual vector space and B be the dual basis with respect to B. Show that with respect to the bases B and B , there is an isomorphism Lin(V, V∗ ) → Matm×n (K). (c) Conclude now that there is an isomorphism Bil(V × V, K) → Lin(V, V∗ ). (2) Let f : R2 × R2 → R defined by f (x, y) = x1 y1 + x1 y2 + x2 y1 + x2 y2 where x = (x1 , x2 ) and y = (y1 , y2 ). Find the matrix A such that f (x, y) = xt Ay. Finally check that the matrix that you have obtained is indeed the correct one. (3) Let V be a vector space of dimension n with basis B and < , > be a scalar product on V . Recall that any such scalar product is a bilinear form. Show that the matrix associated to this scalar product is a symmetric matrix. (4) Let V be an n-dimensional vector space. Prove that there to every non-zero linear functional φ : V → K, we there is an (n − 1)-dimensional subspace Wφ ⊂ V such that ker φ = Wφ . Show that if ψ : V → K is another linear functional such that...

...Assignment 1–Advanced Operations Research - MATH 3010 Posted 23 August 2014 Due date: 19 September 2014, by 5pm In all the statements below, the notation, as well as references to page numbers, equations, etc, are as in the textbook Primal-dual interior-point methods, by Wright, Stephen, which is available online for UniSA staff and students. All relevant chapters of the textbook are also available in the webpage of the course. For solving this assignment, you need to read the handwritten Lecture Notes posted in the web and the material in the book up to Chapter 4, page 70. Question 1 (2+2+3+3+3+3=16 points) Fix A ∈ Rm×n , b ∈ Rm , and c ∈ Rn . (a) Write down the KKT conditions for the following problem, on the variable x ∈ Rn : min cT x Ax = b ; x ≥ 0. (1) (b) Write down the KKT conditions for the following problem, on the variable (λ, s) ∈ Rm+n AT λ max λT b + s = c; s ≥ 0, (2) Show that both the KKT conditions associated with both problems are identical. (c) Given x, s ∈ Rn , define the matrices X = diag(x1 , . . . , xn ), S = diag(s1 , . . . , sn ), and the vector e = (1, . . . , 1)T ∈ Rn . Let F : R2n+m → R2n+m be defined as T A λ+s−c . Ax − b F (x, λ, s) = XS e Show that a solution of F (x, λ, s) = 0 does not necessarily satisfy the KKT conditions of part (a) (or part (b)). Prove that, on the other hand, every vector (x, λ, s) that satisfies the KKT conditions must satisty F (x, λ, s) = 0. (d) Recall that the search direction (∆x, ∆λ, ∆s) generated by a Newton...

...network model appeared, the publications introduced the first models of as computing machines, the basic model of a self-organizing network (Arbib, 1995). Martindlae (1991) states that "The brain does not have anything we could really call a central processing unit, and the brain does not work in a serial fashion. The brain is therefore more like a large number of very slow computers all operating at the same time and each dedicated to a fairly specific task" (p. 10). The more modern is the dual coding approach, which believes that knowledge is a series of complex associative networks. Within these networks there are imagined (visual) and verbal representations. These two representations are what facilitate the recovery and storage of knowledge (Paivio, 1986). Allan Paivio is the researcher in the area of verbal and nonverbal representations during the 1960's. In 1971 Allan Paivio presented his innovative paper:” Imagery and Verbal Processes”. Because of this paper the concept of a dual coding process was born. This method gives an explanation on how...

The LGA 1156 connector LGA 1156, also known as Socket H or H1, is an Intel desktop CPU socket. LGA stands for land grid array. Its incompatible successor is LGA 1155. The 1156 is the number of pins in the socket, its designed to take the 1156 pin processor. What processors is it used with? Intel Celeron, Pentium, Core i3, i5, i7, and Xeon What is its purpose on the motherboard? LGA 1156 socket allows the following connections to be made from the processor to the rest of the system. * PCI-Express 2.0 ×16 for communication with a graphics card * DMI for communication with the Platform Controller Hub (PCH). This consists of a PCI-Express 2.0 ×4 connection * FDI for communication with the PCH, this consists of two display connections * Two memory channels for communication with DDR3 SDRAM Basically the LGA 1156 socket connects the processor with the motherboard. Intel H55 chipset The Chipset shows what the motherboard can possible do or not. Every computer have a Northbridge chipset. It’s main purpose is to make the link between the processor and the rest of the computer (graphic card, USB ports, hard drive, etc.) but the utility of a Northbridge vary from chipset to chipset, some will act also as a graphic card and on others chipsets, they may also manage the...

...Personal Values and Ethical Standards Paper Each person has different personal values and developed ethical standards. My personal values and ethics have shaped my life to be what it is today. Values refer to his or her own personal standards of what he or she believes to be right, or wrong. Ethics refers to a structure set of fundementals that provide a structure for what is considered to be the appropriate conduct in any groups. A "code of ethics" is the written document that represents the agreed upon principals for a particular group. I started gaining values from childhood as I watched those most closely related to me such as my father and step mother. As I grew older I gained values through outside resources such as school, church, or even from my surrounding neighbors I came in to contact within my day-to-day life. I was raised by parents who were old enough to be my grandparents and in the South there were social values and behaviors still considered to be “old fashioned.” I learn to treat a people with manners, automatic respect, and an attitude of strong work ethics. Some of my earliest memories were of how my father went to work five days a week and never missed a day that I can remember. I also recollect how my step mother taught me so many skills and values that she thought were important for a young lady to learn such as how to cook a home made meal, clean a house, and speak to others with manners. My stepmother always encouraged me to be willing to help those...
