VLBA measurement of the transverse velocity of the magnetar XTE J1810-197 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We have obtained observations of the magnetar XTE J1810-197 with the Very Long Baseline Array at two epochs separated by 106 days, at wavelengths of 6 cm and 3.6 cm.

Simply-connected vortex-patch shallow-water quasi-equilibria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This work is supported by a UK Natural Environment Research Council studentshipWe examine the form, properties, stability and evolution of simply-connected vortex-patch relative quasi-equilibria in the single-layer ƒ-plane shallow-water model of ...

Computerized Generation of Endodontic Files by Reproducing the Flute Grinding Manufacturing Process

open access: yesBioengineering
Background: File fracture during root canal treatment in endodontics is a major concern for clinicians. The strength of the file is strongly dependent on its geometry, material, and working conditions; finite element simulations are used to understand ...

Cloth manipulation based on motion generation and shape prediction by EM*D-net

open access: yesTransactions of the JSME (in Japanese), 2018
In this paper, we describe a motion planning method for cloth manipulation. We address the problem that only the current shape of the cloth product and its target shape are given. To accomplish this task, it is necessary to determine how to manipulate the cloth and to predict the manipulated shape of the cloth.

Coupling the solar surface and the corona: coronal rotation, Alfv\'en wave-driven polar plumes

open access: yes, 2013
The dynamical response of the solar corona to surface and sub-surface perturbations depends on the chromospheric stratification, and specifically on how efficiently these layers reflect or transmit incoming Alfv\'en waves.

Probing the Upper Scorpius mass function in the planetary-mass regime

open access: yes, 2013
We present the results of a deep ZYJ near-infrared survey of 13.5 square degrees in the Upper Scorpius (USco) OB association. We photometrically selected ~100 cluster member candidates with masses in the range 30-5 Jupiters, according to state-of-the-art

A generic method to construct new customized-shaped haotic systems using the relative motion concept

open access: yesNonlinear Analysis: Modelling and Control, 2016
Constructing chaotic systems tailored for each particular real-world application has been a long-term research desideratum. We report a solution for this problem based on the concept of relative motion. We investigate the periodic motion on a closed contour of a coordinate frame in which a chaotic system evolves.

A pipeline to morph finite element models of the lumbar spine for generation of customised spinal cages

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Lumbar interbody fusion with spinal cages is an established treatment for degenerative disc disease, however, generic cages comprising standardised shapes and sizes still encounter complications such as cage migration and subsidence ...

Radial Velocities as an Exoplanet Discovery Method

open access: yes, 2017
The precise radial velocity technique is a cornerstone of exoplanetary astronomy. Astronomers measure Doppler shifts in the star's spectral features, which track the line-of/sight gravitational accelerations of a star caused by the planets orbiting it ...
