Full-field strain measurement and identification of composites moduli at high strain rate with the virtual fields method [PDF]
, 2010 The present paper deals with full-field strain measurement on glass/epoxy composite tensile specimens submitted to high strain rate loading through a split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) device and with the identification of their mechanical properties ...

Inferential vs. Dynamical Conceptions of Physics [PDF]
, 2013 I contrast two possible attitudes towards a given branch of physics: as inferential (i.e., as concerned with an agent's ability to make predictions given finite information), and as dynamical (i.e., as concerned with the dynamical equations governing ...

Geometrical aspects of a generalized statistical mechanics [PDF]
, 2007 We discuss here the use of generalized forms of entropy, taken as information measures, to characterize phase transitions and critical behavior in thermodynamic systems. Our study is based on geometric considerations pertaining to the space of parameters

Statistical properties of microbial phenotypes and colony growth [PDF]
, 2012 Cells are the fundamental units of which all life forms are composed. To understand the elementary organization of life, it is therefore meaningful to start the investigation on the single cell level.Modern microscopy permits the examination of both ...

Supersymmetry in the Majorana Cooper-pair box
, 2014 Over the years, supersymmetric quantum mechanics has evolved from a toy model of high-energy physics to a field of its own. Although various examples of supersymmetric quantum mechanics have been found, systems that have a natural realization are scarce.

One and two-fiber orientation kinetic theories of fiber suspensions [PDF]
, 2013 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jnnfm.2012.10.009The morphology influencing rheological properties of suspensions of rigid spheres constitutes the flow induced collective ordering of the spheres characterized by two or more sphere distribution functions ...

Random partitions in statistical mechanics [PDF]
, 2014 We consider a family of distributions on spatial random partitions that provide a coupling between different models of interest: the ideal Bose gas; the zero-range process; particle clustering; and spatial permutations.

What is a complex system? [PDF]
, 2011 Complex systems research is becoming ever more important in both the natural and social sciences. It is commonly implied that there is such a thing as a complex system across the disciplines.

cond-mat/9806359 STATISTICAL MECHANICS OF VOTING
, 1998 Decision procedures aggregating the preferences of multiple agents can produce cycles and hence outcomes which have been described heuristically as `chaotic'.
