Stability of liquid bridges between twisted elliptical disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The influence in the stability of long liquid bridges supported between two elliptical-shaped disks of their main axis relative orientation is investigated.

Models of Late-type Disk Galaxies: 1-D Versus 2-D

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2014
We investigate the effects of stochasticity on the observed galaxy parameters by comparing our stochastic star formation two-dimensional (2-D) galaxy evolution models with the commonly used one-dimensional (1-D) models with smooth star formation. The 2-D

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

Simulating supernova feedback in galaxy disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this thesis I examine supernova feedback in hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy disks. Understanding this process entails the numerical evaluation of cooling in radiative shocks, and we present a set of simulations using two widely used numerical ...

Exploring the Evolution of Massive Clumps in Simulations That Reproduce the Observed Milky Way α-element Abundance Bimodality

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Milky Way (MW) stellar disk has both a thin and a thick component. The thin disk is composed mostly of younger stars (≲8 Gyr) with a lower abundance of α -elements, while the thick disk contains predominantly older stars (≳8–12 Gyr) with a higher α ...

Principal Component‐Based Classification of Blazar Candidates of Uncertain Type in the 4FGL/LAT

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We adopted principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and support vector machines (SVM), to study classification for a sample of 2708 Fermi blazars: 1142 BL Lac objects (BLLs), 759 flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs), and 807 blazar candidates of uncertain type (BCUs).

A physical model of warped galaxy disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Warped H 1 gas layers in the outer regions of spiral galaxies usually display a noticeably twisted structure. This structure almost certainly arises primarily as a result of differential precession in the H I disk as it settles toward a preferred ...

On the Significance of the Thick Disks of Disk Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Thick disks are a prevalent feature observed in numerous disk galaxies, including our own Milky Way. Their significance has been reported to vary widely, ranging from a few percent to 100% of the disk mass, depending on the galaxy and the measurement ...

The Physical Thickness of Stellar Disks to z ∼ 2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In local disk galaxies such as our Milky Way, older stars generally inhabit a thicker disk than their younger counterparts. Two competing models have attempted to explain this result: one in which stars first form in thin disks that gradually thicken ...
