On the Assumption of Initial Factorization in the Master Equation for Weakly Coupled Systems I: General Framework [PDF]
, 2006 We analyze the dynamics of a quantum mechanical system in interaction with a reservoir when the initial state is not factorized. In the weak-coupling (van Hove) limit, the dynamics can be properly described in terms of a master equation, but a consistent

Calculation of slip surface displacement in earth slopes using the limit equilibrium method [PDF]
Numerical Methods in Civil Engineering, 2018 In the present study, shear displacements were calculated for all failure surface slices in earth slopes using the limit equilibrium method. To this end, the hyperbolic shear stress-strain constitutive law was applied.

Virtual Testing of Experimental Continuation [PDF]
, 2018 We present a critical advance in experimental testing of nonlinear structures. Traditional quasi-static experimental methods control the displacement or force at one or more load-introduction points on a structure.

Generalized Casimir forces in non-equilibrium systems [PDF]
, 2006 In the present work we propose a method to determine fluctuation induced forces in non equilibrium systems. These forces are the analogue of the well known Casimir forces, which were originally introduced in Quantum Field theory and later extended to the

Stability Analysis of a Multi-Layered Slope in an Open Pit Mine
Geosciences, 2023 The design of slopes in open pit mines requires an in-depth understanding of the ground behavior to predict the potential failure mechanism and to better determine the stabilization measures.

Crossover from Non-Equilibrium to Equilibrium Behavior in the Time-Dependent Kondo Model
, 2004 We investigate the equilibration of a Kondo model that is initially prepared in a non-equilibrium state towards its equilibrium behavior. Such initial non-equilibrium states can e.g.

Faddeev Random Phase Approximation for Molecules [PDF]
, 2010 The Faddeev Random Phase Approximation is a Green's function technique that makes use of Faddeev-equations to couple the motion of a single electron to the two-particle--one-hole and two-hole--one-particle excitations.

Study and Analysis of Landslide Potential Us-ing Numerical Modeling (A Case Study: Ghaen-Afin Roadway in Southern Khorasan) [PDF]
پژوهشهای زیرساختهای عمرانی, 2019 Steep slopes developed on the loose ground, either natural or artificial, are prone to landslide phenomena. During con-struction activities for the development of new Qaen-Afin road in South Khorasan and adjacent to Ravoshk village, a sudden landslide ...
