The dynamics of the drum mower blade

Bartoň, Stanislav

Similarity:

The drum mower blade is freely rotatable around the fastening pin. During the operation of the mower, the centrifugal force and the resistance of the mowing material act on it. The presented article studies the effect of these forces on the behavior of the blade, in particular its oscillation around the steady state, depending on the properties of the cut material.

Ergodic theory approach to chaos: Remarks and computational aspects

Paweł J. Mitkowski, Wojciech Mitkowski (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

We discuss basic notions of the ergodic theory approach to chaos. Based on simple examples we show some characteristic features of ergodic and mixing behaviour. Then we investigate an infinite dimensional model (delay differential equation) of erythropoiesis (red blood cell production process) formulated by Lasota. We show its computational analysis on the previously presented theory and examples. Our calculations suggest that the infinite dimensional model considered possesses an attractor...

On disjointness properties of some smooth flows

Krzysztof Frączek, Mariusz Lemańczyk (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Special flows over some locally rigid automorphisms and under L² ceiling functions satisfying a local L² Denjoy-Koksma type inequality are considered. Such flows are proved to be disjoint (in the sense of Furstenberg) from mixing flows and (under some stronger assumption) from weakly mixing flows for which the weak closure of the set of all instances consists of indecomposable Markov operators. As applications we prove that ∙ special flows built over ergodic interval...

Relatively independent joinings and subsystems of W*-dynamical systems

Rocco Duvenhage (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Relatively independent joinings of W*-dynamical systems are constructed. This is intimately related to subsystems of W*-dynamical systems, and therefore we also study general properties of subsystems, in particular fixed point subsystems and compact subsystems. This allows us to obtain characterizations of weak mixing and relative ergodicity, as well as of certain compact subsystems, in terms of joinings.

Ratner's property for special flows over irrational rotations under functions of bounded variation. II

Adam Kanigowski (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider special flows over the rotation on the circle by an irrational α under roof functions of bounded variation. The roof functions, in the Lebesgue decomposition, are assumed to have a continuous singular part coming from a quasi-similar Cantor set (including the devil's staircase case). Moreover, a finite number of discontinuities is allowed. Assuming that α has bounded partial quotients, we prove that all such flows are weakly mixing and enjoy the weak Ratner property. Moreover,...

On symmetric logarithm and some old examples in smooth ergodic theory

K. Frączek, M. Lemańczyk (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We give a positive answer to the problem of existence of smooth weakly mixing but not mixing flows on some surfaces. More precisely, on each compact connected surface whose Euler characteristic is even and negative we construct smooth weakly mixing flows which are disjoint in the sense of Furstenberg from all mixing flows and from all Gaussian flows.

Mathematical model of mixing in Rumen

Wiesław Szlenk (1996)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

A mathematical model of mixing food in rumen is presented. The model is based on the idea of the Baker Transformation, but exhibits some different phenomena: the transformation does not mix points at all in some parts of the phase space (and under some conditions mixes them strongly in other parts), as observed in ruminant animals.

On new spectral multiplicities for ergodic maps

Alexandre I. Danilenko (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

It is shown that each subset of positive integers that contains 2 is realizable as the set of essential values of the multiplicity function for the Koopman operator of some weakly mixing transformation.

Multiple spatial scales in engineering and atmospheric low Mach number flows

Rupert Klein (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

The first part of this paper reviews the single time scale/multiple length scale low Mach number asymptotic analysis by Klein (1995, 2004). This theory explicitly reveals the interaction of small scale, quasi-incompressible variable density flows with long wave linear acoustic modes through baroclinic vorticity generation and asymptotic accumulation of large scale energy fluxes. The theory is motivated by examples from thermoacoustics and combustion. In an almost obvious way specializations...
