Three-neutron resonance trajectories for realistic interaction models

Thrust - Limited Optimal Three - Dimensional Spacecraft Trajectories

Several optimal three-dimensional orbital transfer problems are solved for thrust-limited spacecrafts using collocation and nonlinear programming techniques. The solutions for full nonlinear equations of motion are obtained where the integrals of the free Keplerian motion in three dimensions are utilized for coasting arcs. In order to limit the solution space, interior-point constraints are use...

Realistic Tool–tissue Interaction Models for Surgical Simulation and Planning

Surgical simulators present a safe and potentially effective method for surgical training, and can also be used in preand intra-operative surgical planning. Realistic modeling of medical interventions involving tool-tissue interactions has been considered to be a key requirement in the development of high-fidelity simulators and planners. The soft-tissue constitutive laws, organ geometry and bo...

Structure of Proton Component of Neutron Star Matter for Realistic Nuclear Models

We study properties of the proton component of neutron star matter for a number of realistic nuclear models. Protons which form a few percent admixture tend to be localized in potential wells corresponding to neutron matter inhomogeneities created by the protons in the neutron medium. We calculate the energy of the Wigner-Seitz cell enclosing a single localized proton. The neutron background is...

Realistic three-generation models from SO(32) heterotic string theory

We search for realistic supersymmetric standard-like models from SO(32) heterotic string theory on factorizable tori with multiple magnetic fluxes. Three chiral ganerations of quarks and leptons are derived from the adjoint and vector representations of SO(12) gauge groups embedded in SO(32) adjoint representation. Massless spectra of our models also include Higgs fields, which have desired Yuk...
