Higgs mechanism and the added-mass effect. [PDF]
In the Higgs mechanism, mediators of the weak force acquire masses by interacting with the Higgs condensate, leading to a vector boson mass matrix. On the other hand, a rigid body accelerated through an inviscid, incompressible and irrotational fluid feels an opposing force linearly related to its acceleration, via an added-mass tensor.

How Does Added Mass Affect the Gait of Middle-Aged Adults? An Assessment Using Statistical Parametric Mapping [PDF]
To improve exoskeleton designs, it is crucial to understand the effects of the placement of such added mass on a broad spectrum of users. Most prior studies on the effects of added mass on gait have analyzed young adults using discrete point analysis ...

Ankle and midtarsal joint quasi-stiffness during walking with added mass [PDF]
Examination of how the ankle and midtarsal joints modulate stiffness in response to increased force demand will aid understanding of overall limb function and inform the development of bio-inspired assistive and robotic devices. The purpose of this study

Conformal mass in AdS gravity [PDF]
We show that the Ashtekar-Magnon-Das (AMD) mass and other conserved quantities are equivalent to the Kounterterm charges in the asymptotically AdS spacetimes that satisfy the Einstein equations, if we assume the same asymptotic fall-off behavior of the Weyl tensor as considered by AMD.

The classical wake oscillator model is capable of predicting the vortex-induced vibration response of a cylinder at high mass-damping ratios, but it fails to perform satisfactorily at low mass-damping ratios. A modified wake oscillator model is presented

An Experimental Assessment of Unsteady Forces on a Plunging Airfoil Oscillating in Stationary Fluid at High Frequencies [PDF]
Experiments were conducted to measure the unsteady plunging forces on a NACA- 0012 airfoil at zero undisturbed flow velocity. The aim is to investigate the vari- ation of the added forces associated with high oscillation frequencies at various angles of ...

Computation of the Added Masses of an Unconventional Airship [PDF]
This paper presents a modelling of an unmanned airship. We are studying a quadrotor flying wing. The modelling of this airship includes an aerodynamic study. A special focus is done on the computation of the added masses. Considering that the velocity potential of the air surrounding the airship obeys the Laplace′s equation, the added masses matrix ...
