  • Some variations of dual Euler–Rodrigues formula with an application to point–line geometry
    Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2018
    Co-Authors: Derya Kahveci̇, Yusuf Yayli
    Abstract:

    This paper examines the Euler-Rodrigues formula in dual 3−space D 3 D 3 by analyisng its variations such as vectorial form, exponential map, point-line theory and quaternions which have some intrinsic relations. Contrary to the Euclidean case, dual rotation in dual 3−space corresponds to a screw motion in Euclidean 3−space. This paper begins by explaining dual motion in terms of the given dual axis and angle. It will then go on to express dual Euler-Rodrigues formula with algebraic methods. Furthermore, an application of dual Euler-Rodrigues formula to point-line geometry is accomplished and point-line displacement operator is obtained by dual Euler-Rodrigues formula. Finally, dual Euler-Rodrigues formula is presented with the help of dual Euler-Rodrigues parameters that is expressed as a dual quaternion.

  • the geometrical and algebraic interpretations of euler Rodrigues formula in minkowski 3 space
    International Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2016
    Co-Authors: Derya Kahveci, Yusuf Yayli
    Abstract:

    The aim of this paper is to give the geometrical and algebraic interpretations of Euler–Rodrigues formula in Minkowski 3-space. First, for the given non-lightlike axis of a unit length in ℝ13 and angle, the spatial displacement is represented by a 3 × 3 semi-orthogonal rotation matrix using orthogonal projection. Second, we obtain the classifications of Euler–Rodrigues formula in terms of semi-skew-symmetric matrix corresponds to spacelike, timelike or lightlike axis and rotation angle with the help of exponential map. Finally, an alternative method is given to find rotation axis and the Euler–Rodrigues formula is expressed via split quaternions in Minkowski 3-space.

  • representation of orientation relationships in Rodrigues frank space for any two classes of lattice
    Journal of Applied Crystallography, 2007
    Co-Authors: You Liang He, J J Jonas
    Abstract:

    The fundamental zones of Rodrigues–Frank (R-F) space applicable to misorientations between crystals of any two Laue groups are constructed by using a unified formulation in terms of quaternion algebra. Some of these regions are fully bounded by planes that are determined solely by the symmetries of the groups, while others have at least one unbounded direction. Each of the bounded fundamental zones falls into one of nine geometrically distinct configurations. The maximum symmetry-reduced angles and the corresponding Rodrigues–Frank vectors for these fundamental zones are evaluated. The use of Rodrigues–Frank space for the representation of orientation relationships between crystals of any two symmetry groups is also addressed. Examples concerning the transition of phases of the same symmetry group, i.e. from face-centered cubic to body-centered cubic, and of different groups, i.e. from body-centered cubic to hexagonal close-packed, are given to illustrate the usefulness of this space for representing orientation relationships during phase transformation or precipitation.

  • brazilian physician nina Rodrigues analysis of a scientific career
    Cadernos De Saude Publica, 1995
    Co-Authors: Marcos Chor Maio
    Abstract:

    One of the most productive ways of investigating the history of Brazilian medical practice at the turn of this century is to focus on the fruitful and ambiguous careers of those physicians that played an important role in the changes affecting the medical field at that time. This paper aims at analyzing the scientific career of physician-anthropologist Raimundo Nina Rodrigues, taking as its conceptual basis Pierrre Bourdieu's notion of "scientific field ". The paper's point of departure is the notion that the medical field is a space of confrontation that is structurally determined by previous conflicts in which physicians try to monopolize claims to scientific authority and competence. Nina Rodrigues' medical profile appears in this context as a precise indicator of the process of specialization and competition that took place during that period.

  • Brazilian physician Nina Rodrigues: analysis of a scientific career
    Cadernos De Saude Publica, 1995
    Co-Authors: Marcos Chor Maio
    Abstract:

    Uma das maneiras mais proficuas de se pesquisar a historia da medicina brasileira na passagem do seculo XIX para o XX e a investigacao da trajetoria profissional de determinados medicos que tiveram posicoes de relevo no processo de mudancas que atingiu o campo medico a epoca. Neste sentido, este artigo tem por objetivo analisar a carreira academico-profissional de Raimundo Nina Rodrigues, a partir da nocao de campo cientifico de Pierre Bourdieu. Partindo do principio de que o campo medico e um espaco de confrontos estruturalmente determinado pelos embates passados, onde os medicos buscam monopolizar a autoridade/competencia cientifica, considero que o perfil medico de Nina Rodrigues e um indicador preciso do processo de especializacao e concorrencia que se desenvolveu naquele momento.

  • ethnopharmacological analysis of medicinal plants used against non communicable diseases in Rodrigues island indian ocean
    Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2015
    Co-Authors: Anne Kathie Samoisy, Fawzi M Mahomoodally
    Abstract:

    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance Rodrigues is an autonomous outer island that form part of the Republic of Mauritius and one of three islands that constitute the Mascarene archipelago in the Indian Ocean. Though herbal medicine is in common use in Rodrigues, there has been no ethnopharmacological study to document quantitatively such traditional practise particularly against non-communicable diseases (NCD) which is currently a growing major health issue on the island. The aim of the present study was to collect, analyse and document traditionally used medicinal plants (MP) from key informants and traditional medicine practitioners (TMP) in the tropical island of Rodrigues to treat and/or manage common NCD. Materials and methods Data was collected via face-to-face interviews with MP users ( n =113) and TMP (n =9). Seven quantitative ethnopharmacological indices, namely family use value (FUV), use value (UV), informant agreement ratio (IAR), relative frequency of citation (RFC), fidelity level (FL), relative importance (RI) and ethnobotanicity index (EI) were calculated. Results Hundred and three plants belonging to 55 families were recorded for the treatment and/or management of 27 different NCD. Three of the MP ( Terminalia bentzoe (L.) L.F , Sarcostemma cf. adontolepis Balf.f. and Clerodendrum laciniatum Balf.f.) recorded are endemic to Rodrigues and 2 ( Carissa xylopicron Thouars. , Phyllanthus casticum Willemet f.) endemic to the Mascarene Islands. The most solicited MP family was Asteraceae with a total of 8 species. Citrus aurantifolia (Christm.) Swingle scored the highest RFC (RFC=1.02) value. Ten plants were found to score 100% FL and the highest IAR (0.98) was observed for the disease category of certain conditions originating in the perinatal period. Arecaceae scored the highest FUV value and Ayapana triplinervis (Vahl) R.M. King et H.Rob highest UV (UV= 2.72). Conclusion Given the dearth of updated information on traditional medicine of Rodrigues, this study can provide an opportunity to establish valuable primary information on the different MP used by the local people and hence can open new perspectives for further pharmacological research.
