We present an exact model for determining the cogging torque in a brushless DC (BLDC) motor. It is based on the conformal mapping (CM) method, by which the motor configuration is transformed to a configuration where the magnetic field can be determined. Th ...
A novel design for interdigitated band electrodes is described. The electrode is built by successive printing of conductive and insulating layers on a steel substrate. This geometry exhibits a high performance for the hypochlorite electrogeneration from se ...
We consider the transmission of variable bit rate (VBR) video over a network offering a guaranteed service such as ATM VBR or the guaranteed service of the IETF. The guaranteed service requires that the flow accepted by the network has to be conforming wit ...
We study the world-volume effective action of stable non-BPS branes present in Type II theories compactified on K3. In particular, by exploiting the conformal description of these objects available in the orbifold limit, we argue that their world-volume ef ...
This Paper is an introduction to the study of an invariant of Riemannian manifolds related to the non-linear potential theory of the p-Laplacian and which is called its parabolic or hyperbolic type. One of our main focus is the relationship between the asy ...
We investigate the properties of photonic band gap structures of finite size and arbitrary geometry using the density of states deduced from scattering calculations. We first demonstrate this procedure on a finite 2D array of cylinders and then study at op ...
We give a self-contained discussion of recent progress in computing the non-perturbative effects of small non-holomorphic soft supersymmetry breaking, including a simple new derivation of these results based on an anomaly-free gauged U(1)(R) background. We ...
In this article, we study the problem (sometimes called the Berger-Nirenberg problem) of prescribing the curvature on a Riemann surface (that is on an oriented surface equipped with a conformal class of Riemannian metrics). ...
A model structure of vitreous silica, for which the vibrational frequencies and eigenmodes were calculated from first principles, is used to investigate vibrational amplitudes. Calculated mean-square displacements for oxygen and silicon atoms are obtained ...
The photoelectron spectra of 3-endo-(2), of 3-exo-methoxybicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one (3) and of 2-endo,3-endo-dimethoxybicyclo[2.2.1]heptane (4) are analyzed in comparison with data reported for other analogous systems and with predictions based on quantum ...
