On the relation between the Feynman paradox and the Aharonov–Bohm effects

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2012
The magnetic Aharonov–Bohm (A–B) effect occurs when a point charge interacts with a line of magnetic flux, while its reciprocal, the Aharonov–Casher (A–C) effect, occurs when a magnetic moment interacts with a line of charge.

Accelerated Interior Point Algorithms for Rate‐Independent Single Crystal Plasticity at Small Strains

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Rate‐independent single crystal plasticity requires robust solution methods due to the non‐uniqueness of slip system activity. The interior point method, which enforces the yield criterion via slack variables and a so‐called barrier term, has proven both robust and computationally efficient for this class of problems and has been applied to ...

Nematic Liquid Crystal Locking Menisci

open access: yesAdvances in Condensed Matter Physics, 2013
We study meniscus driven locking of point defects of nematic liquid crystals confined within a cylindrical tube with free ends. Curvilinear coordinate system is introduced in order to focus on the phenomena of both (convex and concave) types of menisci ...

Model Predictive Control of Gas Networks Based on Port‐Hamiltonian Formulations

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT To efficiently compute optimal compressor actions in gas networks, we investigate port‐Hamiltonian models consisting of linear and a nonlinear model assumptions. The control actions are derived via adjoint‐based gradients that incorporate the constraints of the underlying optimization problem. We then present results from the implementation of

Adaptive Matrix‐Free Simulations of Fluid‐Filled Phase‐Field Fractures With Fixed‐Stress Coupling and Fracture‐Width Computation

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 15, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fluid‐filled phase‐field fracture simulations require robust, scalable solvers that can handle strongly nonlinear, non‐smooth mechanics and tightly coupled flow on locally refined meshes. In this work, we develop an adaptive finite element framework for quasi‐static, fluid‐filled phase‐field fractures that combines semi‐smooth Newton methods ...

Multi-body kinematics and dynamics in terms of quaternions: Langrange formulation in covariant form: Rodriguez approach [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2010
This paper suggests a quaternion approach for the modeling kinematics and dynamics of rigid multi-body systems. Instead of the regular 'Newton-Euler' and Lagrange method used in the traditional way, Lagrange's equations of second kind in the covariant ...
