Simulation-based forecasting effects of an accidental explosion on the road. Part II: Case study [PDF]

open access: yesTransport, 2006
The paper contains a case study covering forecasting mechanical effects of an explosion which can be generated during a road accident. It illustrates a practical application of the simulation-based procedure developed for such forecasting in the first ...

Advective collisions [PDF]

open access: yesEurophysics Letters (EPL), 2007
Small particles advected in a fluid can collide (and therefore aggregate) due to the stretching or shearing of fluid elements. This effect is usually discussed in terms of a theory due to Saffman and Turner [J. Fluid Mech., 1, 16-30, (1956)]. We show that in complex or random flows the Saffman-Turner theory for the collision rate describes only an ...

Time-Varying Formation Control For Second-Order Discrete-Time Multi- Agent Systems With Switching Topologies and Nonuniform Communication Delays

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Time-varying formation control and velocity tracking problems for second-order discrete-time multi-agent systems with switching jointly-connected topologies and nonuniform communication delays are investigated.

Collision geometry and flow in uranium + uranium collisions

open access: yesPhysical Review C, 2015
Using event-by-event viscous fluid dynamics to evolve fluctuating initial density profiles from the Monte-Carlo Glauber model for U+U collisions, we report a "knee"-like structure in the elliptic flow as a function of collision centrality, located around the 0.5% most central collisions as measured by the final charged multiplicity. This knee is due to

Collision of Shock Waves in Einstein-Maxwell Theory with a Cosmological Constant: A Special Solution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Post-collision space-times of the Cartesian product form M'xM'', where M' and M'' are two-dimensional manifolds, are known with M' and M'' having constant curvatures of equal and opposite sign (for the collision of electromagnetic shock waves) or of the ...

Sticky elastic collisions [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2013
The effects of purely elastic collisions on the dynamics of heavy inertial particles is investigated in a three-dimensional random incompressible flow. It is shown that the statistical properties of inter-particle separations and relative velocities are strongly influenced by the occurrence of sticky elastic collisions - particle pairs undergo a large ...

Is the super-Penrose process possible near black holes? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We consider collisions of particles near generic axially symmetric extremal black holes. We examine possibility of indefinitely large extraction of energy (the so-called super-Penrose process) in the limit when the point of collision approaches the ...

Thermal–Electrical–Mechanical Coupled Finite Element Models for Battery Electric Vehicle

open access: yesMachines
The safety of lithium-ion batteries is critical to the safety of battery electric vehicles (BEVs). The purpose of this work is to develop a method to predict battery thermal runaway in full electric vehicle crash simulation.
