A Note on Fixed-Point Theory
Abstract: In this paper, we narrate in brief the origin and step-by-step development of the fixed-point theory which finds its primary applications in functional analysis. It is a sub-branch of the functional analytic theory in which geometric conditions on the mappings and/or underlying spaces play a crucial role. It is also a major branch of nonlinear functional analysis with close ties to Banach space geometry. In this paper, our main focus …

Structural Mechanics: Its Boundary Conditions and Applications
Abstract: Structural mechanics is the study of the calculation of deformations, deflections, internal forces, orstresses (stress equivalents) within structures, either for design or for performance assessment ofalready-existing structures. An area of structural analysis is this. Structural loads, the geometricrepresentation and support circumstances of the structure, as well as the material properties, are allinput variables for structural mechanics analyses. Support responses, strains, and displacementscould all be included in the output numbers. The …
