N-body simulations of cohesion in dense planetary rings: A study of cohesion parameters

چکیده

We present results from a large suite of simulations of Saturn’s dense A and B rings using a new model of particle sticking in local simulations (Perrine, R.P., Richardson, D.C., Scheeres, D.J. [2011]. Icarus 212, 719– 735). In this model, colliding particles can be incorporated into or help fragment rigid aggregations on the basis of certain user-specified parameters that can represent van der Waals forces or interlocking surface

N - body Simulations with Cohesion in Dense Planetary Rings

Title of Dissertation: N-body Simulations with Cohesion in Dense Planetary Rings Randall Patrick Perrine, Doctor of Philosophy, 2011 Dissertation directed by: Professor Derek C. Richardson Department of Astronomy This dissertation is primarily focused on exploring whether weak cohesion among icy particles in Saturn’s dense rings is consistent with observations—and if so, what limits can be plac...

A numerical model of cohesion in planetary rings

We present a numerical method that incorporates particle sticking in simulations using the N-body code pkdgrav to study motions in a local rotating frame, such as a patch of a planetary ring. Particles stick to form non-deformable but breakable aggregates that obey the (Eulerian) equations of rigid-body motion. Applications include local simulations of planetary ring dynamics and planet formati...

The Effectiveness of Self-Healing Training (the Healing Codes) on the Sense of Cohesion in Substance-Dependent Males

Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of self-healing training (the healing codes) on the sense of cohesion in substance-dependent men in 2020. Method: The present research was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest design with a control group. The statistical population included all substance-dependent males in Isfahan in 2020. Among whom, 30 people who were wil...

Dense planetary rings and the viscous overstability

This paper examines the onset of the viscous overstability in dense particulate rings. First, we formulate a dense gas kinetic theory that is applicable to the Saturnian system. Our model is essentially that of Araki and Tremaine (1986), which we show can be both simplified and generalised. Second, we put this model to work computing the equilibrium properties of dense planetary rings, which we...

The Comparison of the Effectiveness of Metacognitive Education and Treatment and Cognitive-Behavioral Stress Management on Feeling of Cohesion and Depression in the Spouses of Substance-Dependent Men

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of metacognitive education and treatment and cognitive-behavioral stress management on feeling of cohesion and depression in the spouses of substance-dependent men. Method: The present study was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest and 3-month follow-up design with a control group. The statistical population of the study incl...
