In this paper, the dynamical response of a coupled oscillator is investigated, taking in consideration the nonlinear behavior of a SMA spring coupling the two oscillators. Due to the nonlinear coupling terms, the system ...

Few studies have investigated the composition of male couples' sexual agreements and whether their agreement composition differs by dyad HIV serostatus. To help assess the utility that agreements could have for sexual ...

The aquaponic principle is the coupling of animal aquaculture (e.g. fish) with plant production (e.g. vegetables) for saving resources. At present, various definitions of aquaponics exist, some bearing the risk of ...

In this article we address decomposition strategies especially tailored to perform strong coupling of dimensionally heterogeneous models, under the hypothesis that one wants to solve each submodel separately and implement ...

In this study, a new and efficient computational approach based on isogeometric analysis (IGA) and refined plate theory (RPT) is proposed for the geometrically nonlinear analysis of functionally graded (FG) microplates. ...

We update the indirect bounds on anomalous triple gauge couplings coming from the non-universal one-loop contributions to the Z → bb width. These bounds, which are independent of the Higgs boson mass, are in agreement with ...
