Nonlinear Time-Domain Strip Theory Formulation for Low-Speed Manoeuvering and Station-Keeping [PDF]
Modeling, Identification and Control, 2004 This paper presents a computer effective nonlinear time-domain strip theory formulation for dynamic positioning (DP) and low-speed manoeuvring. Strip theory or 2D potential theory, where the ship is divided in 20 to 30 cross sections, can be used to ...

Implications of extreme flatness in a general f(R) theory
Physics Letters B, 2016 We discuss a modified gravity theory defined by f(R)=∑nlαnM2(1−n)Rn. We consider both finite and infinite number of terms in the series while requiring that the Einstein frame potential of the theory has a flat area around any of its stationary points ...

A simple $$F(\mathcal{R},\phi )$$ F(R,ϕ) deformation of Starobinsky inflationary model
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2020 We study a model including a real scalar field $$\phi $$ ϕ non-minimally coupled to $$F(\mathcal{R})$$ F(R) gravity, which is conformally equivalent to an Einstein–Hilbert theory, involving two real scalar fields.

Expressiveness of Commutative Quantum Circuits: A Probabilistic Approach
IEEE Transactions on Quantum EngineeringThis study investigates the frame potential and expressiveness of commutative quantum circuits. Based on the Fourier series representation of these circuits, we express quantum expectation and pairwise fidelity as characteristic functions of random ...

The role of frames in the organization of online dictionaries
Calidoscópio, 2019 This work aims at demonstrating the relevance of adopting the concept of frame as an organizing notion of an online dictionary. The theoretical foundation is based on the assumptions of the theory proposed by the linguist Charles Fillmore, the Frame ...
