Prey-Taxis vs. An External Signal: Short-Wave Asymptotic and Stability Analysis by Andrey Morgulis, Karrar H. Malal

“…Such an approach refers back to Kapitza’s theory for an upside-down pendulum. The overall conclusion is that the external signal is likely not capable of creating the instability domain in the parametric space from nothing but it can substantially widen the one that is non-empty with no signal.…”

Ligament and Droplet Generation by Oil Film on a Rotating Disk by Hengchao Sun, Guoding Chen, Li’na Wang, Fei Wang

“…An integrated model to predict the oil film flow, ligament number, and droplet Sauter mean diameter (SMD) of a rotating disk, which is an abstraction of the droplet generation sources in a bearing chamber, is developed based on the oil film force balance analysis and wave theory. The oil film thickness and velocity, ligaments number, and droplet SMD are calculated as functions of the rotating disk radius, rotational speed and oil volume flow rate and oil properties. …”

A Semianalytical Solution for Passively Loaded Piles Adjacent to Surcharge Load by Hao Zhang, Minglei Shi, Lei Yang, Yuancheng Guo

“…To investigate the influence of passive load and the response along pile shafts of existing actively loaded piles, a load transfer model for analyzing the soil-pile interaction was developed based on plastic deformation theory and the triparameter soil model. An analytical solution for the deformation and internal force of such piles was proposed using the transfer matrix method, in which the transfer matrix coefficients for piles in free, plastic, and elastic zones were analytically obtained by considering the second-order axial force effect caused by lateral loading and soil yielding based on the triparameter soil model. …”
