Dynamic theory of the nuclear collective model [PDF]

open access: yes, 1964
The rotation-vibration model and the hydrodynamic dipole-oscillation model are unified. A coupling between the dipole oscillations and the quadrupole vibrations is introduced in the adiabatic approximation. The dipole oscillations act as a "driving force"

Vibration therapy [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 2009
Whole‐body vibration training is a method for muscle strengthening that is increasingly used in a variety of clinical situations. Key descriptors of vibration devices include the frequency, the amplitude, and the direction of the vibration movement. In a typical vibration session, the user stands on the device in a static position or performs dynamic ...

Plants respond to leaf vibrations caused by insect herbivore chewing

open access: yesOecologia, 2014
Plant germination and growth can be influenced by sound, but the ecological significance of these responses is unclear. We asked whether acoustic energy generated by the feeding of insect herbivores was detected by plants.

Dynamic Precipitation during High‐Pressure Torsion of a Magnesium–Manganese Alloy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An ultrafine‐grained alloy is produced by high‐pressure torsion of solutionized Mg–1.35 wt% Mn. Precipitation of nanometer‐scale Mn particles during deformation provides pinning sites. This prevents the formation of a bimodal grain structure and results in a finer grain size than for pure Mg.

Vibrations and fractional vibrations of rods, plates and Fresnel pseudo-processes

open access: yes, 2011
Different initial and boundary value problems for the equation of vibrations of rods (also called Fresnel equation) are solved by exploiting the connection with Brownian motion and the heat equation. The analysis of the fractional version (of order $\nu$)

Static NLO susceptibilities: testing approximation schemes against exact results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The reliability of the approximations commonly adopted in the calculation of static optical (hyper)polarizabilities is tested against exact results obtained for an interesting toy-model.

Manipulating behaviour with substrate-borne vibrations--potential for insect pest control.

open access: yesPest Management Science, 2015
This review presents an overview of the potential use of substrate-borne vibrations for the purpose of achieving insect pest control in the context of integrated pest management. Although the importance of mechanical vibrations in the life of insects has

Alfven node-free vibrations of white dwarf in the model of solid star with toroidal magnetic field

open access: yes, 2010
In the context of the white dwarf asteroseismology, we investigate vibrational properties of a non-convective solid star with an axisymmetric purely toroidal intrinsic magnetic field of two different shapes.
