We study some mechanical problems in which a friction force is acting on a system. Using the fundamental concepts of state, time evolution and energy conservation, we explain how to extend Newtonian mechanics to thermodynamics. We arrive at the two laws of ...
In the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (DGP) model, the "self-accelerating" solution is plagued by a ghost instability, which makes the solution untenable. This fact, as well as all interesting departures from general relativity (GR), are fully captured by a four- ...
The Weyssenhoff fluid is a perfect fluid with spin where the spin of the matter fields is the source of torsion in an Einstein–Cartan framework. Obukhov and Korotky showed that this fluid can be described as an effective fluid with spin in general relativi ...
The purpose of this paper is finding the essential attributes underlying the convexity theorems for momentum maps. It is shown that they are of a topological nature; more specifically, we show that convexity follows if the map is open onto its image and ha ...
We studied protons attached to bridging O atoms in the vicinity of the Si(100)-SiO2 interface through density-functional calculations for realistic interface models. These protons do not disrupt the bonding network except in the case of strained SiO bonds ...
In this paper we propose a novel wearable architecture based on the popular and proven I2C protocol. Our goal is to develop a modular approach towards wearable computing in a sense that users simply attach specific modules to their garments depending on th ...

A systematic study of the different phases of Lorentz-breaking massive gravity in a curved background is performed. For tensor and vector modes, the analysis is very close to that of Minkowski space. The most interesting results are in the scalar sector wh ...
A dynamical analysis of an effective homogeneous and irrotational Weyssenhoff fluid in general relativity is performed using the 1 + 3 covariant approach that enables the dynamics of the fluid to be determined without assuming any particular form for the s ...
This paper presents a recently introduced switching principle for emerging monolithic bidirectional devices. Based on the hypothesis that those switches may overcome conventional diode type solutions in power converters, an active self-switching process be ...

As the classical transactional abstraction is sometimes considered too restrictive in leveraging parallelism, a lot of work has been devoted to devising relaxed transactional models with the goal of improving concurrency. Nevertheless, the quest for improv ...
