Model experiments and direct stability assessments on pure loss of stability of the ONR tumblehome in following seas [PDF]
The guidelines for direct stability assessment of pure loss of stability are currently under development at IMO for the second generation intact stability criteria. A surge-heave-pitch-roll coupled equation named as 4 DOF is newly established for predicting pure loss of stability in following seas.

Split-time method for estimation of probability of capsizing caused by pure loss of stability [PDF]
The paper reviews a multi-year research effort for using the split-time method to calculate the probability of ship capsizing due to pure loss of stability in irregular waves. The idea of the split-time method is to separate the complex problem into two less complex problems: a non-rare problem that involves the upcrossing of an intermediate level of ...

Flat bands and PT-symmetry in quasi-one-dimensional lattices [PDF]
We examine the effect of adding PT-symmetric gain and loss terms to quasi 1D lattices (ribbons) that possess flat bands. We focus on three representative cases: (a) The Lieb ribbon, (b) The kagome ribbon, and (c) The stub Ribbon.
