Degenerate billiards in celestial mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesRegular and Chaotic Dynamics, 2017
In an ordinary billiard trajectories of a Hamiltonian system are elastically reflected after a collision with a hypersurface (scatterer). If the scatterer is a submanifold of codimension more than one, we say that the billiard is degenerate. Degenerate billiards appear as limits of systems with singularities in celestial mechanics.

Semantic primitives and compositionality: An Annual Review of Information Science and Technology (ARIST) paper

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The term semantic primitives refers to a set of basic, atomic concepts from which all other (compound) concepts are constructed. It presupposes the principle of compositionality—the idea that complex items or expressions can be formed by combining simpler constituents.

Empirical Stability Criteria for 3D Hierarchical Triple Systems. I. Circumbinary Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
In this work we revisit the problem of the dynamical stability of hierarchical triple systems with applications to circumbinary planetary orbits. We derive critical semimajor axes based on simulating and analyzing the dynamical behavior of 3 × 10 ^8 ...

Titius-Bode’s Relation and Distribution of Exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2010
The distance distribution in our planetary system has been a controversial matter. Two kinds of important issues on Titius-Bode’s relation have been discussed up to now: one is if there is a simple mathematical relation between distances of natural ...

Perspective Projection of an Ellipse and an Ellipsoid for Analytical View Factor Evaluation

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Radiative view factors are fundamental quantities for evaluating radiative heat transfer between different surfaces. While analytical expressions of view factors have been evaluated for various types of basic geometries, including circular disks and spheres, extending these solutions to more complex geometries, such as ellipses and ellipsoids ...

Simulation of the Motion of Stars Escaping from the Galactic Center

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2015
Motions of stars escaping from the Galactic center are simulated. It is shown that the Galactic bar reduces the initial velocity needed to escape from the Galaxy.

Development of n‐type ZnAlInO Semiconductor Materials for Thermoelectric Generators in Aerospace Applications

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Herein, the synthesis and production of n‐type ZnAlInO semiconductor materials is achieved utilizing sol–gel and cold pressing methods for fabrication in aerospace thermoelectric generators applications. The Seebeck coefficient and power factor values increase with the addition of template samples, reaching a maximum of −162.63 μV K−1 and 0.44 mW mK−2,

Advances and Trends in Terrain Classification Methods for Off‐Road Perception

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Off‐road autonomous vehicles (OAVs) are becoming increasingly popular for navigating challenging environments in agriculture, military, and exploration applications. These vehicles face unique challenges, such as unpredictable terrain, dynamic obstacles, and varying environmental conditions.

The epicycle model

open access: yesModelling in Science Education and Learning, 2013
The solutions of the equations of motion for a point mass particle under a conservative force field are generally constrained by a basic set of integrals of motion, which depend on the knowledge about the potential function and on time and space ...
