Introduction Least Squares Prony's Method Modified Prony Methods Real Exponential Fitting Frequency Estimation Articles Software Links Note that you need the symbol font installed on your browser to read the mathematical equations below correctly Many functions, used to model physical systems in engineering or physics, arise as the solution to a homogeneous differential equation. Let µ(t) be the concentration or intensity of the physical process at time t. It is often the case that there are physical reasons for supposing that µ(t) satisfies a differential equation like S p+1 x k D k-1 µ(t) = for all t k=1 where D is the differential operator and the x k are unknown coefficients. A typical solution to (1) is a sum of exponential functions (2) µ(t) = S p a j exp( b j t) j=1 where the b j are rate constants (usually negative) and the a j are amplitudes. Such a solution is appropriate for a transient system which dies to zero as time goes on, such as the concentration of an intermediary compound in a chemical reaction. Another typical solution to (1) is a sum of sinusoids (3) µ(t) = S p/2 a j sin( b j t + f j j=1 Such a solution is persistent and periodic, and is appropriate for electrical or physical systems driven by persistent regular oscillating forces. Signals in speech recognition are often of this type. A third common solution is the damped sinusoid

Extractions: July-September 1990 (Vol. 12, No. 3) p p. 177-185 Work for the Hairdressers: The Production of de Prony's Logarithmic and Trigonometric Tables I. Grattan-Guinness A summary account is given of the large set of logarithmic and trigonometric tables produced at the end of the 18th century under the direction of Gaspard Riche de Prony. Although they were completed in 1801, their size made publication a costly task; and it was never done, despite the fact that printing was started more than once and various efforts were made over the years to find finance. Eventually a reduced edition of some tables appeared in 1891. In addition to the history some details are given of the mathematical methods used in the compilation of the tables. An appendix considers the possible influence of this project upon Babbage's ideas on computers and tables.

Extractions: Mathematician Report Index Below is a list of mathematicians. You may choose from this list or report on a mathematician not listed here. In either case, you must discuss with me the mathematician you have chosen prior to starting your report. No two students may write a report on the same mathematician. I would advise you to go to the library before choosing your topic as there might not be much information on the mathematician you have chosen. Also, you should determine the topic early in the term so that you can "lock-in" your report topic!! The report must include: 1. The name of the mathematician. 2. The years the mathematician was alive. 3. A biography. 4. The mathematician's major contribution(s) to mathematics and an explanation of the importance. 5. A historical perspective during the time the mathematician was alive.

Horse Power Testing One of the first such dynamometers was developed by the French mathematician,gaspard de prony (17551839) and is called a prony Brake. http://www.buckleyoldengineshow.org/horsepower.htm
Extractions: The Prony Brake Horsepower testing is the mechanical measuring of the units of Power that an engine or machine is capable of producing. More specifically we are measuring Brake Horsepower - the effective horsepower or the amount of work that is produced at its final output. One method of doing this is by the use of a dynamometer. A dynamometer is a device that measures Force. In one common type of dynamometer, the force is measured by braking action. One of the first such dynamometers was developed by the French mathematician, Gaspard de Prony (1755-1839) and is called a Prony Brake. The principle of the Prony Brake is that an engine or motor is directly coupled to a drum that has a tensioned, friction belt around it. As the drum revolves, the frictional force is measured. Before we explain the operation of the Prony Brake any further, lets define Horsepower and understand the equations we will be using. Straight Line Horsepower Horsepower is a British unit for Power defined as the equivalent to the force needed to move 550 pounds, one foot, in one second or one pound, 550 feet, in one second.

Computing Before Charles Babbage from Martin Campbell-Kelly and William Aspray (1996), Computer: A History of the Information Age (New York: Basic Books: 0465029906). New Economy Master Page pp. 11-13: "... in 1819 Babbage made the first of several visits to Paris.... It was probably during this visit that Babbage learned of the great French [mathematical] table-making project organized by Baron Gaspard de Prony. This project would show Babbage a vision that would determine the future course of his life. "Du Prony began the project in 1790.... De Prony was... appointed head of the Bureau du Cadastre, the French ordnance survey office. His task was made more complex... by... the new, rational metric system. This created within the Bureau the job of making a complete new set of decimal tables to be known as the Tables du Cadastre. It was by far the largest table-making project the world had ever known, and de Prony decided to organize it much as one would organize a factory. "De Prony took as his starting point the most famous economics text of his day, Adam Smith's
PRONUNCIATION prony, gaspard CLAIR FRANCOIS MARIE RICHE de (17551839), French engineer, wasborn at Chamelet, in the department of the Rhone, on the 22nd of July 1755 http://83.1911encyclopedia.org/P/PR/PRONUNCIATION.htm
Extractions: I-lis career may be studied in Hesiod; in the splendid Prometheus vinctus of Aeschylus, with the scholia; in Heynes Apollodorus; in the excursus (I) of SchUzius to the Aeschylean drama, and in the frequently quoted work of Kuhn. The essay of Steinthal may also be examined (Goldziher, Myth. Hebr., Eng. trans., p. 363392), where the amused student will discover that Moses is a Pramanthas, with much else that is as learned and convincing. See also Tylors Early History of Man; Nesfield in Calcutta Review (January, April, 1884); and the article FIRE. (A. L.) PROMOTER, one who promotes (Lat. promovere, to move forward), advances or forwards any scheme, project or undertaking. The most general specific sense in which the word is now used is that of a person who takes the steps necessary to the incorporation of a joint-stock company (see COMPANY) or to the passing of a private or local act of parliament. In legal history, a promoter was one who prosecuted offenders, originally as an officer of the Crown, later as a common informer; the term is still used thus of the prosecutor in a suit in an ecclesiastical court. PRONGBUCK, PRONGHORN, or (in America) simply ANTELOPE, the sole existing representative of a family (Antilocapridae) of hollow-horned ruminants in which the horn-sheaths are forked and annually shed and renewed. Standing about 3 ft. high at the shoulder and slightly more at the croup, the male prongbuck has the black horns rising vertically upwards immediately above the eyes. The general colour is bright sandy fawn, with much white on the face, three white bars on the throat and white under parts and buttocks. The white throat-bands are evidently protective; and the long white hair on the buttocks can be erected and expanded into large chrysanthemum-like bunches as in Japanese deer; these being guides to the members of the herd vJhen in flight. The tail is short; lateral hoofs are wanting; and the teeth are tall-crowned. Female prongbuck produce one or two young at a birth, and are either hornless or furnished with small and more or less rudimentary horns.
