Inconsistency of an inflationary sector coupled only to Einstein gravity

Daniel Garcia Figueroa

From a model-building perspective, the inflationary sector might very well have no direct couplings to other species, apart from inevitable gravitational interactions. Within the context of General Relativity, a thermal universe can still emerge after infl ...

Aeroelastic deformation of a perforated strip

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Mark Andrew Guttag

We perform a combined experimental and numerical investigation into the static deformation of perforated elastic strips under uniform aerodynamic loading at high-Reynolds-number conditions. The static shape of the porous strips, clamped either horizontally ...

Horava Gravity is Asymptotically Free in 2+1 Dimensions

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Mario Herrero Valea

We compute the beta functions of marginal couplings in projectable Horava gravity in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions. We show that the renormalization group flow has an asymptotically free fixed point in the ultraviolet (UV), establishing the theory as a UV-com ...

Bed shear stress estimation for gravity currents performed in laboratory

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Jessica Zordan

Gravity currents are caused by density differences between two fluids which may be due to temperature, dissolved substances or the presence of particles in suspension. In this study saline currents, in which the higher density is produced by dissolved salt ...

Blade sections in streamwise oscillations into reverse flow

Karen Ann J Mulleners

A low-Reynolds number rectilinear analog of the retreating-blade problem is considered by computationally and experimentally studying a NACA0012 blade in spanwise oscilla-tion in a free stream. Three-dimensional hybrid RANS-LES simulations with spanwise pe ...

Measurement of the dynamics in ski jumping using a wearable inertial sensor-based system

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens

Dynamics is a central aspect of ski jumping, particularly during take-off and stable flight. Currently, measurement systems able to measure ski jumping dynamics (e.g., 3D cameras, force plates) are complex and only available in few research centres worldwi ...

Foil Bearing Design Guidelines for Improved Stability

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann

Experimental evidence in the literature suggests that foil bearing-supported rotors can suffer from subsynchronous vibration. While dry friction between top foil and bump foil is thought to provide structural damping, subsynchronous vibration is still an u ...

Foil bearing design guidelines for improved stability

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann

Experimental evidence in the literature suggests that foil bearing supported rotors can suffer from sub-synchronous vibration. While dry-friction between top foil and bump foil is thought to provide structural damping, sub-synchronous vibration is still an ...

Since the dawn of the Space Age, over six thousand satellites have been launched into Earth orbit. The function of determining the orientation of a satellite in orbit, so that it can point its antennas and instruments in the required direction is known as ...

Experimental Contribution to the Mechanics of Herringbone Grooved Journal Air Bearings

Ivan Ognjanovic

Gas Lubricated Herringbone Grooved Journal Bearings (HGJB) have long been used in equipment such as navigation systems, optical scanners for laser printers and high speed cameras and disk spindle for flyhead testers. All such applications are characterized ...
