Super-harmonically resonant swirling waves in longitudinally forced circular cylinders

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone, Alice Evelyne Julienne Marcotte

Resonant sloshing in circular cylinders was studied by Faltinsen et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 804, 2016, pp. 608-645), whose theory was used to describe steady-state resonant waves due to a time-harmonic container's elliptic orbits. In the limit of longitu ...

Advancing spacecraft demisability through a novel composite bolt joint system: a step toward sustainable and safe space environments

Véronique Michaud, Alexandre Achille Looten, Muriel Richard, Antonio Caiazzo

From the recent awareness of the booming number of space debris and their derived worldwide re-entry event threat originating from the use of high survivability components, complementary mitigation measures must be taken for future orbital elements. In thi ...

Gaia Focused Product Release: Asteroid orbital solution: Properties and assessment

Stephan Morgenthaler, Shuangqing Liao

Context. We report the exploitation of a sample of Solar System observations based on data from the third Gaia Data Release (Gaia DR3) of nearly 157 000 asteroids. It extends the epoch astrometric solution over the time coverage planned for the Gaia DR4, w ...

Numerical and experimental investigation of spiral-grooved gas journal bearings

Elia Iseli

Small-scale turbomachinery is increasingly used in carbon-free energy conversion systems, such as commercial or domestic scale heat pumps, fuels cells for transportation and waste heat recovery. The usage of aerodynamic bearings allows the design of compac ...

Experimental and numerical investigation of the unbalance behavior of rigid rotors supported by spiral-grooved gas journal bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Elia Iseli

The forced response of rigid rotors, supported by herringbone-grooved gas journal bearings are investigated numerically and experimentally. The rotor configurations are varied by using end cylinders, attached at both sides of the shaft. Three rotors with d ...

Constructing periodic orbits of high-dimensional chaotic systems by an adjoint-based variational method

Tobias Schneider, Sajjad Azimi, Omid Ashtari

Chaotic dynamics in systems ranging from low-dimensional nonlinear differential equations to high-dimensional spatiotemporal systems including fluid turbulence is supported by nonchaotic, exactly recurring time-periodic solutions of the governing equations ...

Coordinate parameterisation and spectral method optimisation for Beltrami field solver in stellarator geometry

David Pfefferlé, Aravind Kumar Chandiran, Antoine Baillod, Ajay Kumar

The numerical solution of the stepped pressure equilibrium (Hudson et al 2012 Phys. Plasmas 19 112502) requires a fast and robust solver to obtain the Beltrami field in three-dimensional geometry such as stellarators. The spectral method implemented in the ...

Capture system adapted to capture orbital objects, in particular for deorbiting purposes

Muriel Richard, Pierre-Alain Mäusli, Michaël Pellet

There is described a capture system (100) adapted to capture orbital objects (2000), in particular for deorbiting purposes. The capture system (110) comprises (i) a deployable capture structure (110) designed to be deployable between a standby configuratio ...

Tracing the formation of the Milky Way through ultra metal-poor stars

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We use Gaia DR2 astrometric and photometric data, published radial velocities and MESA models to infer distances, orbits, surface gravities, and effective temperatures for all ultra metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] < -4.0 dex) available in the literature. Assuming ...

Stacking-driven gap formation in layered 1T-TaS2

Helmuth Berger

The layered transition metal dichalcogenides which show an inherent tendency towards charge density wave order are traditionally considered to realize rather two-dimensional electronic systems. However, recent theoretical and experimental results suggest t ...
