The flywheel is a widespread mechanical component used for the storage of kinetic energy and angular momentum. It typically consists of cylindrical inertia rotating about its axis on rolling bearings, which involves undesired friction, lubrication, and wea ...
In this paper, we consider a compact connected manifold (X, g) of negative curvature, and a family of semi-classical Lagrangian states f(h)(x) = a(x)e(i phi(x)/h) on X. For a wide family of phases phi, we show that f(h), when evolved by the semi-classical ...

The vertical shortening of tall buildings is not negligible, and it is important to account for these deformations to minimize differential movement and ensure that the finished building is level. Compensation via superelevation is common in reinforced con ...

This paper proposes high-order accurate well-balanced (WB) energy stable (ES) adaptive moving mesh finite difference schemes for the shallow water equations (SWEs) with non flat bottom topography. To enable the construction of the ES schemes on moving mesh ...

State-to-state molecule/surface scattering experiments prepare the incident molecules in a specific quantum state and measure the quantum state distribution of the scattered molecules. The comparison of state resolved experiments with theory can serve as s ...

In this work, isogeometric mortaring is used for the simulation of a six-pole permanent magnet synchronous machine. Isogeometric mortaring is especially well suited for the efficient computation of rotating electric machines, as it allows for an exact geom ...
Pulsatile jet propulsion is a highly energy-efficient swimming mode used by various species of aquatic animals that continues to inspire engineers of underwater vehicles. Here, we present a bio-inspired jet propulsor that combines the flexible hull of a je ...
. We study very weak solutions to scalar Euler-Lagrange equations associated with quadratic convex functionals. We investigate whether W1,1 solutions are necessarily W 1,2 Nash and Schauder applicable. We answer this question positively for a suitable clas ...
A well-known, previously only 1D, algorithm using the Sparse Representation of Signals and an iterative Block Coordinate Descent method (the SparSpec-1D algorithm) has been further developed and tested in a 2D spatial domain to obtain the toroidal and polo ...
Adaptive first-order methods in optimization are prominent in machine learning and data science owing to their ability to automatically adapt to the landscape of the function being optimized. However, their convergence guarantees are typically stated in te ...
