NONLINEAR STABILITY OF SINUSOIDAL VELAROIDAL SHELL
The nonlinear analysis of thin-walled shells is not a rarity, particularly the nonlinear strength one. Many works are devoted to linear and nonlinear analyses of shells of classical form: cylindrical, spherical, hemispherical, shallow, conical.

Tsunami generation by paddle motion and its interaction with a beach: Lagrangian modelling and experiment [PDF]
A 2D Lagrangian numerical wave model is presented and validated against a set of physical wave-flume experiments on interaction of tsunami waves with a sloping beach. An iterative methodology is proposed and applied for experimental generation of tsunami-

Microaccelerometer on Surface Acoustic Waves with a Ring Resonator on Anisotropic Material
Introduction. Diagnostic systems are designed to monitor the condition of operational components (for example, on the railway). It is imperative that micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) equipped with acceleration sensors (accelerometers) be used as ...

Contact mechanics for randomly rough surfaces [PDF]
When two solids are squeezed together they will in general not make atomic contact everywhere within the nominal (or apparent) contact area. This fact has huge practical implications and must be considered in many technological applications.

Tidal inertial waves in the differentially rotating convective envelopes of low-mass stars - I. Free oscillation modes [PDF]
Star-planet tidal interactions may result in the excitation of inertial waves in the convective region of stars. In low-mass stars, their dissipation plays a prominent role in the long-term orbital evolution of short-period planets.

Wave reflection at a free interface in an anisotropic pyroelectric medium with nonclassical thermoelasticity [PDF]
In this paper, the well-established two-dimensional mathematical model for linear pyroelectric materials is employed to investigate the reflection of waves at the boundary between a vacuum and an elastic, transversely isotropic, pyroelectric material.

Free surface flows emerging from beneath a semi-infinite plate with constant vorticity [PDF]
The free surface flow past a semi-infinite horizontal plate in a finite-depth fluid is considered. It is assumed that the fluid is incompressible and inviscid and that the flow approaches a uniform shear flow downstream.

The application of ultrasonic NDT techniques in tribology [PDF]
The use of ultrasonic reflection is emerging as a technique for studying tribological contacts. Ultrasonic waves can be transmitted non-destructively through machine components and their behaviour at an interface describes the characteristics of that ...

Sliding without slipping under Coulomb friction: opening waves and inversion of frictional force
An elastic layer slides on a rigid flat governed by Coulomb's friction law. We demonstrate that if the coefficient of friction is high enough, the sliding localizes within stick-slip pulses, which transform into opening waves propagating at intersonic ...
