共點圓、共圓點
我的研究是利用一些特殊的手法來探討所有情況皆會產生共點圓或共圓點。在一個由四條直線(無平行線組、無共點)所構成的圖形中,可以找到四個三角形及它們的外接圓。我知道它會共點,在此稱其為限制點。且若再添加一條直線,則可以任意的取出四條直線,分別找出它的限制點,而這些限制點又會共圓,吾稱其為限制圓。我欲證明此種情況會不斷延續下去。即是六條線時又會有限制點,七條線時又會有限制圓…。在本研究中,我利用了數學歸納法、特殊的編號方法以及「方向角」來做出此證明。由於固定的線組對應至固定的限制點或限制圓,希望能向找出其性質的方向發展。In my study, I use some skills to discuss all the situations which satisfy following conditions. The result is that concurrent circles or concyclic points will be found in every situation. In a graph consisting of four lines, conforming to conditions that any three lines won’t be parallel or intersect at one point, I can find out four triangles and their circumscribed circles. I know these circumscribed circles will be concurrent and I call the point at which all the circles meet “restricted point”. If another line is additionally added in the graph, I can discover that restricted points determined by any four lines in the graph will be concyclic. I call the circle “restricted circle”. What I want to prove is that the above situation will go on. In other words, restricted points will exist when I have six lines, and restricted circles will exist when I have seven lines and so on. In my study, I used Principal of Mathematical Induction, special ways of numbering points and circles, and “orientated angle” to prove my hypothesis. Because of particular line groups corresponding with particular restricted points or restricted circles, the further work I want to attain is to find the relation of them.
水滴奇遇記-蓮花效應的真面目
Lotus self-cleaning effect arises because the leaves have the superhydrophobic surfaces. When rain falls onto a lotus leaf, water beads up as a result of surface tension. The water drops promptly roll off the surface, taking every dirt with them. This phenomenon is called the lotus effect. With the aid of a light microscope and an Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope, we observe and describe the morphology of the leaves of Nelumbo nucifera in detail. We successfully observe the real interface between air, water droplets and the papillae of a lotus leaf, and find the evidence of a composite surface that is formed by epicuticular wax crystals and air. These observations improve our understanding of the two-level composite surfaces that are formed by micro-scale papillae, nano-scale epicuticular wax crystals and air. We try the method of using the critical angle of a static drop beginning to roll on inclined surface to evaluate the self-cleaning ability. We then find out that it may be a more precise criterion compared to using the static contact angle for the evaluation of the lotus effect. Literature review shows that the earlier investigation lacks the height(H) and interval(I) of the projections on the lotus leaf surface. A close relationship between the self-cleaning property and the H/I ratio is found. In this study, we present the experimental data of the height and interval of the projections on four different species of plant leaves that all have lotus effect, which may be of great help to technological applications. 蓮花效應是指蓮葉表面具有超疏水性與自我潔淨的能力,當雨水落在葉面,因為表面張力的作用形成水珠,水滴迅速滾離葉面,把灰塵一起帶走。本實驗以光學顯微鏡和環境式掃描式電子顯微鏡觀察蓮葉,詳細描述其表面形態,成功的發現空氣、水滴和蓮葉乳突真實的接觸界面以及表面蠟和空氣構成複合表面的證據。實驗結果可以使乳突、奈米表面臘質和空氣構成的雙層次複合表面更容易被了解。我們嘗試以水滴傾斜滾動臨界角來評估自潔能力強弱,實驗結果比傳統使用靜止接觸角更為準確。表面高度和間距的比值與蓮花效應有很大的關係,查閱文獻顯示蓮葉缺乏這些資料,本研究提出四種有自潔能力的葉子的實驗數據,這些數據應該對科技應用有很大的幫助。
奇妙的三維世界
本實作以光學全像術為基礎,拍攝出三維立體的影像。內容主要為分別製作「穿透式」全像片、「反射式」全像片及「彩虹」全像片等三部份。其中,在反射式全像片中,嘗試以不同數量的光束來拍攝。發現以單光束法拍攝出的全像片比較容易成功,但重建影像的視角與效果都不如雙光束拍攝法來的好。在拍攝彩虹全像片的過程中我們令狹縫為變因,做有加狹縫與未加狹縫的實驗,實驗發現效果不同。並以改變狹縫的角度、方位,來觀察底片的變化。最後,觀察出豐富多樣的彩虹變化型態。全像片可重建拍攝的物光與參考光,並顯現拍攝物的三維狀態。可應用於信用卡、紙鈔防偽,廠商標籤,附加商品(如鑰匙圈、貼紙),廣告看板等,用途廣泛。 The purpose of this project is to construct the 3-dimensional images utilized optical holography. The holograms we made can be categorized into three main types: transmission, reflection and rainbow. In reflection hologram, we have tried to construct the hologram by the use of different number of light beams. It could be found that the reconstructed image of the hologram formed by a single beam is better than those of the hologram formed by two beams. However, the field of view and image quality of the two-beam hologram was better than those of single-beam hologram. In rainbow hologram, we varied the orientation and position of slit to investigate the quality of the reconstructed images. The reconstructed images displayed rainbow image diversity. In application, the holograms can display three-dimensional images by reconstructing the hologram. In addition, the holograms are in widespread applied in security applications of credit card、banknotes、labels、stickers etc.
漂浮的油滴--CMC 的測定
Surfactants have a great effect on decreasing the surface tension in aqueous solution and thus they are important components in detergents. The present study aims to explore the cleaning mechanisms of the substances for greasy subjects such as bowls and clothes. The roles of various surfactants that have on the changes in the surface tension of aqueous solution in the presence and absence of additives such as tea and salt have been carefully studied by using a lab-made equipment. We carefully observed the changes in the oil droplets after pushing oil in a syringe to the aqueous\r solution containing surfactants and additives. With decreasing the surface tension of the aqueous solution, the size of the droplet becomes smaller. By using this simple lab-made equipment, we are able to determine the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), with a result of 0.0079 M at 20 ℃. The result is in a good agreement with the literature (0.0077M). With decreasing temperature and adding salts such as sodium sulfate, the decreases in the surface tension have been confirmed by our simple experiments. This simple equipment also allows study of the effects of impure additives such as salt, tea, vinegar that have on the changes in the surface tension of aqueous solution containing commercial detergents. We have found that most of the additives have a great effect on reducing the surface tension of the aqueous solution. The present study results suggest that the simple experimental set-up is practical for measuring the CMC of surfactants and for exploring the effects of additives on changes in the cleaning ability of commercial detergents.界面活劑性可有效降低水溶液的表面張力,因此,他們是清潔劑的重要成份。該實驗主\r 要在探討各種物質的清潔機制。利用自製的實驗裝置,針對各種不同的界面活性劑在添加了鹽類或茶水後界面張力的改變量,作詳盡的探討。我們將含有不同濃度界面活性劑以及添加物的水溶液裝入容器中,在推擠針筒使其的油通過針頭並進入該溶液後,我們仔細的觀察紀錄油滴大小的改變。結果顯示界面張力的降低會使得油滴變小。藉這個自製的裝置,在20℃下,本實驗所測得的陰離子型界面活性劑-十二烷基硫酸鈉之臨界微胞濃度0.0079M。結果幾乎與過去的文獻0.0077M 值符合。該實驗同時也證實了降低溫度,添加了鹽類後,可有效的降低界面張力。此外,此實驗裝置也可以用來測量市面上販售的清潔劑在添加了不純的物質後,其界面張力的改變量。我們發現大多數的添加物都能有效降低界面張力。目前的實驗結果顯示,這項實驗裝置在測定臨界微胞上有很高的實用性,同時也可以探討不同的添加物對市面上販售的清潔劑之洗淨力的影響。
蟹狀星雲的擴張
By comparing eight different epoch images of the crab nebula taken through 1942 to 2004, we have calculated the expansion velocity of 27 optical bubble features and 60 filaments. The mean expansion velocity of bubble features and filaments is 0.173 arcsec/yr and 0.15 arcsec/yr, respectively. We also estimated the maximum radial velocity of the expansion by analyzing the emission spectrum of the nebula. The maximum radial velocity is 1385.5 km/s. Combining these measurements indicates that the crab nebular is approximately 5870 light year away. In addition, if we assume that the nebula has been expanding at a constant rate, our expansion velocity projected backward indicates the mean date of the supernova event as A.D 1124, more than 70 yrs later than the accepted date of 1054. The result confirms the well-known acceleration in the crab's expansion. Although we have analyzed eight images with a 62 yr baseline, the acceleration still can't be derived from this study. 透過量測由1942年到2004年之間八張不同年代的蟹狀星雲中爆炸後殘骸的位置變化,可以計算出蟹狀星雲爆發的擴張速度。本研究選定了27個包狀物和60個纖狀物,計算出的擴張速度分別為0.173 arcsec/yr.和0.150 arcsec/yr。再透過分析蟹狀星雲的光譜所計算出的徑向速度(radial velocity)為1385.5 km/yr,進而推得蟹狀星雲的距離分別為5430光年和6370光年,平均值為5870光年。 另外,如果假設擴張速度是等速運動,那麼把求得的擴張速度倒推出的爆發日期是在西元1124年,這比中國紀錄中超新星爆發的1054年晚了70年。這顯示出蟹狀星雲的確非等速擴張而是有加速度的狀態,才會造成以等速倒推發生日期時,晚了70年。雖然本研究中分析了相差62年之久的八張影像,仍然無法分析出星雲的擴張的加速度情形。
Bezier曲線與蚶線間之關聯性的探討與推廣
在這篇報告中,我們以貝斯曲線的做圖原理建立出一種新的曲線-環狀貝斯曲線,進而得到不少有趣的結果。我們發現有名的古典曲線-蚶線,也是屬於二次環狀貝斯曲線。軌跡方程式為:,此時,係數恰符合二項式定理。之後我們推廣至n次環狀貝斯曲線的軌跡方程式:,也符合二項式定理。
在複數平面上,給定z0、z1、z2三點,我們定義出一個二次變換 ,若,,可映射成蚶線的圖形;若z∈實數,則可映射成拋物線。利用此結果類推我們找到一個複數平面上由 z0、z1、...、zn 所決定的n次變換將以原點為圓心的單位圓,映射成n次環狀Bezier曲線。
In this essay, we use the method of forming a Bezier Curve to establish a new curve, circular Bezier Curve, and find a lot of interesting results. We discover the famous classical curve "limacon", which belongs to the Quadratic Circular Bezier Curve. The locus of Quadratic Circular Bezier Curve is, where. Its coefficients match the binomial theorem. Then we apply it to the locus of nth-circular Bezier Curve:, and it also matches the binomial theorem.On the complex plane, we define a quadratic transformation corresponding to three points—z0,z1 and z2 as .If , where , a limacon is mapped. If z is a real number, a parabola is mapped. With this result, we will find a nth transformation defined by z0、z1、...、zn on the complex plane. It will form a nth-circular Bezier Curve with unit circle centering on the origin.
二次函數上正三角形建構之研究及探討
在拋物線上置掛正三角形看似簡單,其實不然。本篇文章研究在二次函數的各種不同情況下,可做正三角形的分佈以及其個數。
1. 在一條拋物線上時,最多只能作正三角形。
4. 在三條對稱軸相等的拋物線和共頂點開口大小不同之拋物線上,本篇文章證明一定能找出正三角形落在它們之上。但由於最多有四個分界點,要解四次方乘組過於繁複,於是本篇文章對分界點作了一些估計,找出了分界點的極限值。
5. 本篇文章證明了對於給定的正n 邊形,存在一1 元n-1 次方程式可以通過它所有頂點。
Building a regular triangle on a parabolic curve looks easy . In fact , it doesn’t . This Article researches regular triangles distributions and its numbers in different conditions.
1. On one parabolic curve can only build regular triangles , squares and other regular polygons can’t be built.
4. For three parabolic curves which has same symmetrical axis or three concurrent parabolic curves, we prove that it can build at least one regular triangle on them .But because it can have at most 4 boundary points, to solve quartic equation is to complicated. So we do some estimation of boundary points, and find out some limits.
5. This Article prove that for given regular polygons , there exists a one dimension n-1 orders equation can pass all its apexes.
死亡巧克力—切切割割好計謀
三角形的邊上取任意多個點,我們可以把這塊大三角形沿著切割線切割成較小塊的三角形,但切割線必須是點(或頂點)和點的連線,而且必須切割三角形,同時可以切任意大小的三角形,如圖(1)與圖(2)。但不可以一開始就取走整個三角形。定義拿到最後一塊三角形的人獲勝,而在多邊型中的玩法與在三角形中相同。 我們分A、B、C三種規則來討論,其中A規則即是上面提到的玩法,B規則大部分的玩法和A規則都相同,唯一不同的地方在於:A規則中,只要有一方取到剩下的圖形為三角形,另一方就可以直接取走剩下的三角形,而B規則規定即使剩下的圖形已經是三角形,也必須取到剩下的圖形邊上都沒有分點為止。C規則是限制玩家一次所能取的三角形數來進行遊戲。 我們完成了A、B、C規則中三角形與多邊形的必勝策略,並找出必勝策略之間的關聯。 ;Given any numbers of points on the sides of a triangle, the players can cut this triangle into pieces. Each cutting line has to be one, linked between two points given from two different sides. And the player can’t have to cut smaller triangles out of the original triangle. The out-cut triangles can be chosen randomly without any restriction in size, just like what’s shown in picture(1)and(2). Meanwhile the first player can’t cut the original triangle exactly all out in the very beginning process. We define the player as the winner, who gets the last triangle. And the above way we play can be applies to any multi-side shapes. We discussed the question respectively in three rules, A, B, and C. Rule A is what we mention above. Rule B is generally the same as rule A, except for the only difference:The rule A , if there is any triangle left , the next player can get it directly, but while in rule B, the every next player has to cut out smaller triangles until no point is left on sides. Rule C proceeds on conditions that there is a limitation to a certain number of triangles cut out at a time. We has finished the winning tactic respectively in rule A, B, and C in the games with a triangle and multi-side shapes. Furthermore, we find the connection between the winning tactives.
