In this paper, 2 different approaches for estimating the directional wave spectrum based on a vessel`s 1st-order motions are discussed, and their predictions are compared to those provided by a wave buoy. The real-scale ...

Many animal species take advantage of polarization vision for vital tasks such as orientation, communication and contrast enhancement. Previous studies have suggested that decapod crustaceans use a two-channel polarization ...

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the transition density of a Brownian motion in D, killed at @D, where Dc is a compact non polar set. Our main result concern dimension d D 2, where we show that the transition density ...

In this article, we evaluate the use of simple Lee-Goldburg cross-polarization (LG-CP) NMR experiments for obtaining quantitative information of molecular motion in the intermediate regime. In particular, we introduce the ...

We study the dynamics of interior mean motion resonances of first, second and third order with Jupiter using the model of the restricted three-body problem with the Sun and Jupiter as primaries and we focus on asteroids ...

In many practical engineering situations, a source of vibrations may excite a large and flexible structure such as a ship’s deck, an aeroplane fuselage, a satellite antenna, a wall panel. To avoid transmission of the ...

Birds in a flock move in a correlated way, resulting in large polarization of velocities. A good understanding of this collective behavior exists for linear motion of the flock. Yet observing actual birds, the center of ...
