Stochastic Quantum Mechanics in Curved Spaces: Application to Schwarzschild Black Holes
ABSTRACT In this work, we start from the hypothesis that the universe lives in a Gravitational Wave Background (GWB). From this hypothesis, it follows that space–time is not locally flat because we have to take into account the fluctuations of the GWB in space–time. This implies that sufficiently small particles will feel these oscillations, preventing

The artificial compressibility method is proposed to analyse the nonlinear dynamic response of soft viscoelastic solids such as brain tissue. Based on Lagrangian finite volume schemes, the formation of shear shock waves and wave focusing are reproduced numerically. The methodology could be applied to head trauma simulations.

Controlled Lagrangians and Stabilization of the Discrete Cart-Pendulum System [PDF]
Matching techniques are developed for discrete mechanical systems with symmetry. We describe new phenomena that arise in the controlled Lagrangian approach for mechanical systems in the discrete context.

The dynamic features of the subgrade are closely related to vehicle operation safety. Most of the previous studies are limited to the dynamic response of high embankments, therefore, in this study, the dynamic characteristics of low embankment subgrade under dynamic traffic loads are investigated through field tests and numerical simulations ...

Isogeometric Approximation Methods Using the Interlineation Operators [PDF]
Interlineation of functions of two or more variables is approximation of the functions by their traces or traces of some differential operators on the fixed system of lines.

Lorentz transformations are central to relativistic mechanics, explaining phenomena such as the mass–energy relationship, spatial contraction, momentum transformation, velocity addition, and the geometric structure of Minkowski space‐time. While traditionally derived for motion along a single spatial axis, these transformations can be generalized to ...

With the development of computer and image processing technologies, computer vision (CV) has been attracting increasing attention in the field of civil engineering measurement and monitoring. Cables in slender structures have unique challenges for CV‐based vibration measurement methods, such as low pixel proportion and sensitivity to environmental ...

Structural damage identification based on metaheuristic algorithms is an important part of structural health monitoring with great potential. However, the metaheuristic intelligent algorithms probably have flaws of slow convergence speed and low calculation accuracy, which need to be improved to address engineering optimization problems. In this paper,

Distributed tuned mass dampers (DTMDs) have been widely employed for multimodal seismic response control of structures with closely spaced natural frequencies. However, the traditional mode‐by‐mode design approach neglects the coupling effects between modes and the synergistic effects among tuned mass dampers (TMDs), making it difficult to effectively ...

Wave detected by LIGO is not gravitational wave [PDF]
General Relativity defines gravity like the metric of a Lorentzian manifold. Einstein formulated spacetime as quality structural of gravity, i.e, circular definition between gravity and spacetime, also Einstein denoted "Space and time are modes by which ...
