X-ray Flares from Markarian 501 [PDF]
Motivated by the recent finding of hierarchical X-ray flaring phenomenon in Mrk 421, we conducted a systematic search for X-ray flares from Mrk 501, another well-known TeV blazar, by making use of the rich {\em RXTE} archival database. We detected flares

Finite-difference methods for simulation models incorporating non-conservative forces
We discuss algorithms applicable to the numerical solution of second-order ordinary differential equations by finite-differences. We make particular reference to the solution of the dissipative particle dynamics fluid model, and present extensive results

The mechanism underlying the soliton ratchet, both in absence and in presence of noise, is investigated. We show the existence of an asymmetric internal mode on the soliton profile which couples, trough the damping in the system, to the soliton ...

The Diversity of Fisheries Based Livelihoods in the Berau Delta, East Kalimantan [PDF]
Fisheries based livelihoods in the Berau Delta are diverse. The everyday life of small-scale fishers shows that gear diversification, changing fishing gear over a lifetime and practical knowledge to access good fishing grounds in the rich coastal waters ...

Reversing a granular flow on a vibratory conveyor
Experimental results are presented on the transport properties of granular materials on a vibratory conveyor. For circular oscillations of the shaking trough a non-monotonous dependence of the transport velocity on the normalized acceleration is observed.

The graphic illustrates the design of a hybrid bilayer composed of a liquid crystal hydrogel (LCH) and a liquid crystal network (LCN). The figure highlights the magnetic alignment of the chromonic hydrogel and the thermal‐responsive actuation of the LCN along with the LCH when both layers are aligned or misaligned, enabling programmable, light‐driven ...

Reduction of Noise and Vibration of Spur Gear by Using Asymmetric Teeth Profiles with Tip Relief
Reduction of noise and vibration in spur gear experimentally by using asymmetric teeth profiles with tip relief was presented. Both of classical (symmetric) and asymmetric (with and without tip relief) spur gears are used in this work.

Aircraft turning ground maneuvers [PDF]
In this project a fully parameterized mathematical model of an aircraft turning on the ground in order to get the maximum aircraft speed and minimum infrastructure taxiway radius for three different types of aircrafts (A320, A380 and B737) is developed.
