Gravitational waves with torsion in 3D [PDF]
We study gravitational waves with torsion as exact vacuum solutions of three-dimensional gravity with propagating torsion. The new solutions are a natural generalization of the plane-fronted gravitational waves in general relativity with a cosmological constant, in the presence of matter.

Torsional Travelling Waves in DNA [PDF]
The author's simple model of nonlinear DNA dynamics [Nuovo Cimento 20, No. 6, 833 ff (1998)] is pursued in order to study the local untwisting of DNA double helix. It is shown how the advancing RNA polymerase may force the motion of the torsional solitary wave along DNA.

Siklos waves with torsion in 3D [PDF]
Abstract Starting from the Siklos waves in general relativity with a cosmological constant, interpreted as gravitational waves on the anti-de Sitter background, a new class of exact torsion waves is constructed in the framework of three-dimensional gravity with propagating torsion.

Long-wavelength torsional modes of solar coronal plasma structures [PDF]
Aims. We consider the effects of the magnetic twist and plasma rotation on the propagation of torsional m = 0 perturbations of cylindrical plasma structures (straight magnetic flux tubes) in the case when the wavelength is much longer than the cylinder ...

Nonlinear Torsional Wave Beams [PDF]
An evolution equation with cubic nonlinearity is presented for a torsional wave beam in an isotropic elastic solid. Analytical solutions are presented for the fundamental and third harmonic in the far field of a uniform circular source. Numerical results are presented for harmonic beam patterns at an intermediate distance between the near and far ...

Flexural–torsional buckling of thin-walled composite box beams [PDF]
Buckling of an axially loaded thin-walled laminated composite is studied. A general analytical model applicable to the flexural, torsional and flexural–torsional buckling of a thin-walled composite box beam subjected to axial load is developed.

Further empirical data for torsion on bowed strings.
Research on bowed string motion focuses on transverse waves rather than on torsional waves. These are believed to play only a minor role for stabilizing vibrations and no role for perception.
