Three teachers share their strategies for organization, creating and maintaining enthusiasm in the classroom, and student retention. Audience participation will be encouraged. Anna Wasilewska and Rebecca Williams State College of Florida Changes You See in MAT 1033 Part II This session will be a continuation of a presentation from MAA FL Suncoast Regional Meeting XXXIX in December 2014. This will be a roundtable discussion on recent changes to MAT1033 Intermediate Algebra, given the implementation of Senate 1720. Potential topics include preparedness of students, class formats, and success rates. Alexander Garron – Sandbox Geometry, LLC Plane Geometry Construction of G-field Energy Curves My passion is plane geometry construction of g-field energy curves. I do so by a return to original philosophical pursuits of ‘How Move the Planets’. Galileo and Kepler were contemporaries and Galileo renounced Kepler’s solution for retrograde motion of Mars convinced planets move in circles and not elliptical orbits. I demonstrate a Galilean perception and prove my geometry constructions using Sir Isaac Newton’s Inverse Square Law for the Gravity Field. A mix of HS STEM math and physics that construct an analytic alternate view of g-field mechanics that could not be done without 21st century computer math technology. Alden Sharp – Florida Atlantic University Minimal Completion in Boolean Algebra In a typical introductory course in logic, we learn the meanings of five operators in Boolean algebra: negation (¬p), conjunction (p ∧ q), disjunction (p ∨ q), conditional (p → q), and biconditional (p ↔ q). These five Boolean operators are enough to construct all possible expressions in Boolean algebra, and this is what we mean when we say a set of operators is complete. However, we don’t need all five operators in order to be complete; we can simply express p ↔ q as (p → q) ∧ (q → p), p → q as ¬(¬p ∧ q), and p ∨ q as ¬(¬p ∧ ¬q). Thus, we can have only negation (¬p) and conjunction (p ∧ q) and still be able to construct all possible expressions in Boolean algebra. However, we cannot construct all possible expressions by negation alone, nor by conjunction alone. We then say the set {¬, ∧} is minimally complete, because no proper subset is complete. We will characterize the minimally complete sets of operators in two-element Boolean algebra. Kelly Gomes – University of North Florida Modeling Gene Assembly by Signed Permutations DNA processing in ciliates, a very ancient group of organisms, is among the most sophisticated DNA processing in living organisms. Particularly interesting from the computational point of view is the process of gene assembly from its micronuclear to its macronuclear form. The intramolecular model for gene assembly in ciliates considers three operations ld, hi, and dlad that can assemble ","PeriodicalId":397198,"journal":{"name":"Encyclopedia of Renewable Energy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133616694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The published radial velocities for this star are re-analyzed and evidence is found for additional periodic signals, which could be taken for two additional planets on eccentric orbits making the system dynamically inviable. Limiting the scope to the two originally detected planets, we assess the dynamical stability of the system and find no evidence for bounded chaos in the orbital motion. The orbital eccentricity of the planets b and c is found to change cyclically in the range 0.06–0.28 and 0.05–0.25, respectively, with a period of approximately 0.46 yr. Taking the eccentricity variation into account, numerical integrations are performed of the spin-orbit interactions of the planet GJ 667Cc with its host star, assuming a terrestrial composition of its mantle. Depending on the interior temperature of the planet, it is likely to be entrapped in the 3:2 (probability 0.51) or even higher spin-orbit resonance. It is less likely to reach the 1:1 resonance (probability 0.24). The estimated characteristic spin-down times are quite short for the two planets, i.e., within 1 Myr for planet c and even shorter for planet b. The rate of tidal dissipation of energy in the planets of GJ 667 is estimated at 1023.7 and 1026.7 J yr−1 for c and b, respectively. This raises a question of how such relatively massive, close super-Earths could survive overheating and destruction.","PeriodicalId":397198,"journal":{"name":"Encyclopedia of Renewable Energy","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115354875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
