The distribution of p+ Gamow-Teller strength in 26Mg, 54Fe and 56Ni is calculated in the QRPA and large-basis shell-model spaces. The quenching relative to the simplest jj coupled model found in the QRPA is similar to that found in a shell-model basis which includes 2p2h ground-state correlations within the major shell (sd or pf). For 26Mg there is significant additional quenching found in the ...

By introducing some auxiliary functions, an elasticity system with thermal effects becomes a coupled hyperbolic-parabolic system. Using this reduced system, we obtain a Carleman estimate with two large parameters for the linear thermoelasticity system with residual stress which is the basic tool for showing stability estimates in the lateral Cauchy problem.

An interesting and useful analogy can be drawn between the equations of static poroelasticity and the equations of thermoelasticity including entropy. The correspondence is of practical use in determining the effective parameters in an inhomogeneous poroelastic medium using known results from the literature on the effective thermal expansion coefficient and the effective heat capacity of a diso...

A two dimensional generalized thermoelastic problem of a thick circular plate of finite thickness and infinite extent subjected to continuous axisymmetric heat supply and an internal heat generation is studied within the context of generalized thermoelasticity. Unified system of equations for classical coupled thermoelasticity, Lord-Shulman and Green-Lindsay theory is considered. An exact solut...
