A theorem for rigid motions in Post-Newtonian celestial mechanics.

J.M. Gambi, P. Zamorano, P. Romero, M.L. García del Pino (2003)

RACSAM

The velocity field distribution for rigid motions in the Born?s sense applied to Post-Newtonian Relativistic Celestial Mechanics is examined together with its compatibility with the Newtonian distribution.

An alternative proof of Painlevé's theorem

Jan Němec (2000)

Applications of Mathematics

In this article we show some aspects of analytical and numerical solution of the n -body problem, which arises from the classical Newtonian model for gravitation attraction. We prove the non-existence of stationary solutions and give an alternative proof for Painlevé’s theorem.

An analytical and numerical approach to a bilateral contact problem with nonmonotone friction

Mikaël Barboteu, Krzysztof Bartosz, Piotr Kalita (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We consider a mathematical model which describes the contact between a linearly elastic body and an obstacle, the so-called foundation. The process is static and the contact is bilateral, i.e., there is no loss of contact. The friction is modeled with a nonmotonone law. The purpose of this work is to provide an error estimate for the Galerkin method as well as to present and compare two numerical methods for solving the resulting nonsmooth and nonconvex frictional contact problem. The first approach...

An LPV pole-placement approach to friction compensation as an FTC problem

Ron J. Patton, Lejun Chen, Supat Klinkhieo (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The concept of combining robust fault estimation within a controller system to achieve active Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) has been the subject of considerable interest in the recent literature. The current study is motivated by the need to develop model-based FTC schemes for systems that have no unique equilibria and are therefore difficult to linearise. Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) strategies are well suited to model-based control and fault estimation for such systems. This contribution involves...

Analytical derivation of time spectral rigidity for thermodynamic traffic gas

Milan Krbálek (2010)

Kybernetika

We introduce an one-dimensional thermodynamical particle model which is efficient in predictions about a microscopical structure of animal/human groups. For such a model we present analytical calculations leading to formulae for time clearance distribution as well as for time spectral rigidity. Furthermore, the results obtained are reformulated in terms of vehicular traffic theory and consecutively compared to experimental traffic data.

Applicazioni del teorema di Nekhoroshev alla meccanica celeste

Giancarlo Benettin (2001)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

The application of Nekhoroshev theory to selected physical systems, interesting for Celestial Mechanics, is here reviewed. Applications include the stability of motions in the weakly perturbed Euler-Poinsot rigid body and the stability of the so-called Lagrangian equilibria L 4 , L 5 in the spatial circular restricted three-body problem. The difficulties to be overcome, which require a nontrivial extension of the standard Nekhoroshev theorem, are the presence of singularities in the fiber structure...

Bosons in Rapid Rotation: From the Quantum Many-Body Problem to Effective Equations

Jakob Yngvason (2008/2009)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

One of the most interesting phenomena exhibited by ultracold quantum gases is the appearance of vortices when the gas is put in rotation. The talk will bring a survey of some recent progress in understanding this phenomenon starting from the many-body ground state of a Bose gas with short range interactions. Mathematically this amounts to describing solutions of a linear Schrödinger equation with a very large number of variables in terms of a nonlinear equation with few variables and analyzing the...
