1. In mathematics and engineering, systems of equations or structures that have more unknowns than independent equations, resulting in infinitely many solutions or no unique solution.
The indeterminate systems in linear algebra can have either infinite solutions or no solutions at all.
Os sistemas indeterminados em álgebra linear podem ter infinitas soluções ou nenhuma solução.
2. In structural engineering, structures that cannot be fully analyzed using only static equilibrium equations due to redundant members or supports.
Indeterminate systems in structural analysis require additional methods such as compatibility of deformations.
Sistemas indeterminados em análise estrutural requerem métodos adicionais como compatibilidade de deformações.
