Wall stabilization and the Mathieu–Hill equations

open access: yesPhysics of Plasmas, 2002
In a recent publication [H. Tasso and G. N. Throumoulopoulos, Phys. Lett. A 271, 413 (2000)] on Lyapunov stability of general mechanical systems, it is shown that “parametric excitations” can be stabilized by dissipation for positive potential energies. Specializing on the damped Mathieu equation permits one to establish its full stability chart. It is

Nonlinear Mathieu Equation and its Approximation Without a Small Parameter

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 2015
In this paper, the linear and nonlinear Mathieu equations without a small parameter are considered, which cannot be solved by the perturbation techniques.

Determinants of Improved Dyspnea and Exercise Tolerance With Nasal High‐Flow O2 Therapy in Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease: A Pilot Physiological Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
We tested the respective effect of high‐flow and supplemental O2 from nasal high‐flow O2 therapy (NHFO2) on dyspnea and exercise tolerance in fibrotic interstitial lung disease. Supplemental O2 and NHFO2 (but not high‐flow) provided improvements in these outcomes at “iso‐O2 saturation” due to reduced ventilatory requirements.

Solutions of the Mathieu–Hill Equation for a Trapped-Ion Harmonic Oscillator—A Qualitative Discussion

open access: yesMathematics
We investigate solutions of the classical Mathieu–Hill (MH) equation that characterizes the dynamics of trapped ions. The analytical model we introduce demonstrates the equations of motion are equivalent to those of a harmonic oscillator (HO).

From dusk till dawn: ecoacoustic monitoring reveals wind energy impacts on roding Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Renewable energy is vital for reducing carbon emissions and yet its infrastructure poses challenges to biodiversity. While the impacts of wind power on bats and raptors are well‐studied, the effects on elusive species remain largely unknown. The Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola, a nocturnal forest bird, performs characteristic courtship flights at ...

Monitoring wildlife using long‐endurance solar‐electric UAVs

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
This report discusses the effectiveness of using small solar‐electric UAV (uncrewed aerial vehicles) for aerial wildlife monitoring. We review four years of aerial wildlife monitoring missions using a 5.5‐m wingspan, solar‐electric UAV that was equipped with a gimballed IR/RGB camera.

Using a live‐streaming webcam to assess the behavioural responses of waterbirds to changes in the density of swans Cygnus spp.

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife research has benefitted from the development of new methods that allow data to be collected remotely, with less disturbance to focal animals. The proliferation of livestreaming webcams, for example, those used by nature reserves for public engagement purposes, have offered new possibilities for the study of wildlife behaviour.

Understanding mammal avoidance of human settlements

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Terrestrial mammals often avoid human settlements, but is this a result of human activity around buildings or the built infrastructure per se? Using data on animal movement before and during the COVID‐19 lockdowns, this paper disentangles these effects, showing how changes in human mobility affect animals' avoidance of buildings. Abstract Anthropogenic

Marriage, Wealth, and the Spread of Cohabitation in Canada

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research demonstrates a robust link between marriage and wealth. Wealth facilitates marriage, which then fosters wealth accumulation, resulting in significant net worth disparities between married and cohabiting couples. Does the decline of marriage and growth of cohabitation alter this relationship?
