We study a nonautonomous ODE with piecewise-constant coefficients and its associated two-dimensional Poincare mapping.
This paper is an attempt to formulate a comprehensive theory with which the forces and motions of a submarine cable can be determined in typical laying and recovery situations.
Dynamical processes at metal surfaces are strongly influenced by electronic transitions, even at thermal energies. Excitation of electron-hole pairs provides a mechanism for energy transfers.
The kinetic theory of transport properties of dilute atomic fluids has a solid foundation, dating back to the classic works of Maxwell and Boltzmann(1-3) and Chapman and Enskog(1-3).
We report on the dynmaics of trapped charge in unpassivated GaN/AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy.
We have carried out stochastic trajectory simulations of the scattering of argon clusters, Ar sub (n,) n=5 to 26, from a Pt(111) surface.
Conformational transitions in polymers involve large angle rotations about bonds. The process must proceed in a way which does not require gross movements of the macromolecules.
The stability of moving curved fronts to short wavelength perturbations is investigated using the WKB approximation.
Long-lived droplet fluctuations can dominate the long-time equilibrium dynamics of long-range ordered Ising systems, yielding non-exponential decay of temporal spin autocorrelations.
Single quantum wells of GaAs grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy with growth interruption at hetero-interfaces exhibit multiple structure in the luminescence spectrum corresponding to excitons in monol
