The Vlasov equation describes the temporal evolution of the distribution function of particles in a collisionless plasma and, if magnetic fields are negligible, the mean electric field is prescribed by Poisson equation. ...

The postbuckling of extensible elastic rods is studied using non-linear geometric models. Accordingly the kinematics and equilibrium are stated. Nine different strain-stress relationships are analyzed. The classical Strength ...

A method is devised for estimating the two-time correlation function and the associated Eulerian decorrelation timescale in turbulence. With the assumptions of a single decorrelation time and a frozen-in flow approximation ...

We present a method for the analysis of the strains and stresses developed in the solidified portion of a metal strand during the continuous casting process. Steady-state conditions are assumed. The solidified metal is ...

The main goal of this paper is to validate experimentally the principal conclusions previuoslypublished in [1]. Two manufactured test cases were considered with their respective analytic solu-tions. First, an scalar transport ...

A multiyear solution of the SIRGAS-CON network was used to estimate the strain rates of the earth surface from the changing directions of the velocity vectors of 140 geodetic points located in the South American plate. The ...
