The collected results, obtained by mathematical analysis, were verified by computer. For this...

Contemporary mathematics teaching is mostly reduced to the application of algebraic formulas and algebraic procedures. The visual-logical approach in solving mathematical tasks is very little represented in teaching mathematics. Such practice should be changed since visualization is of great importance in the process of learning and understanding m...

All comparative methods are at least linearly convergent and have satisfied numerical characteristics regarding tested metrics: number of iterations, CPU time and number of function evaluations. Among the chosen set of methods we numerically show which one is th...

Performance Based Logistics (PBL) concept has an aim to improve the system availability and it has been extensively researched in the recent years.

Contemporary mathematics teaching is mostly reduced to the application of algebraic
formulas and algebraic procedures. The visual-logical approach in solving
mathematical tasks is very little represented in teaching mathematics. Such practice
should be changed since visualization is of great importance in the process of learning
and understanding mathematics as well as in solving mathematical tasks. This paper
suggests the possibility of developing students’ ability to perceive lawfulness among
numbers by introducing figurative numbers in mathematics teaching.
Primary goal of this project is to find new mathematical models for solving of optimized problems in wide range and their application in stochastic analysis, theory of generalized inverses and theory of fixed point. It is also, expected that the results of this project should be applied in different industrial fields.
