Simulation of forced vibration of a wedge pair under the impact of variable force [PDF]
The forced oscillations of a wedge pair under the effect of a variable force are investigated in the article. The general solution to the differential equation of forced oscillations of a wedge pair is chosen in the form depending on some unknown ...

Autotopographies of Forced Displacement: City Walking Tours as a Path for Political Visibility
Though forced displacement is prominent within academic research, as well as within public, political, and media debates, all too often the image of forcibly displaced persons is that of voiceless victims and the structural causes behind their trauma ...

Piezoelectric stack actuators (PESAs) are widely used in applications requiring a fast response, high resolution, and high accuracy. The self-heating of a PESA during continuous drive with a large amplitude at high frequencies can change its voltage ...

Land use and the incidence of forced displacement
In the context of the Colombian internal conflict, rural communities engaged in subsistence agriculture and traditional modes of production, most of which are not highly profitable, are significantly affected by displacement.

Forced Displacement and Asylum Policy in the Developing World
Little theoretical or empirical work examines migration policy in the developing world. We develop and test a theory that distinguishes the drivers of policy reform and factors influencing the direction of reform.

How does forced migration feature in EU member states' foreign policy and how does it affect their bargaining strategies? While the literature highlights EU-level policies aiming to manage forced migration flows, we examine how Greece sought to leverage ...

Defining and measuring displacement: is relocation from restructured neighbourhoods always unwelcome and disruptive? [PDF]
Current regeneration policy has been described as ‘state-led gentrification’, with comparisons made with the ‘social disruption’ caused by slum clearance of the 1950s and 1960s.

Modeling capillary forces for large displacements [PDF]
Originally applied to the accurate, passive positioning of submillimetric devices, recent works proved capillary self-alignment as effective also for larger components and relatively large initial offsets. In this paper, we describe an analytic quasi-static model of 1D capillary restoring forces that generalizes existing geometrical models and extends ...

Forced Displacement and Agriculture: Implications for Host Communities
The disruptive effects of conflict and climate-related shocks and their tendencies to cause human population displacements are well documented in the literature.

Long-range correlations in pinned athermal networks [PDF]
We derive exact results for displacement fields that develop as a response to external pinning forces in two dimensional athermal networks. For a triangular lattice arrangement of particles interacting through soft potentials, we develop a Green's function formalism which we use to derive exact results for displacement fields produced by localized ...
