We consider the problem of gravitational forces between point particles on the branes in a Randall-Sundrum (R-S) two brane model with S 1 /Z 2 symmetry. Matter is assumed to produce a perturbation to the R-S vacuum metric and all the 5D Einstein equations are solved to linearized order (for arbitrary matter on both branes). We show that while the gauge condition h i5 = 0, i = 0, 1, 2, 3 can alw...

The wave equation for two electrons in an external Coulomb field (heliumlike atoms) has been shown to be a problem in a three-dimensional half-space. The wave-equation becomes quasi-separable in inertial coordinates. This allows to work out the electron motion in the frame of principal inertia axes. We find that non-adiabatic coupling terms constitute a fictitious force and lead to a deformatio...

BACKGROUND Additive manufacturing (AM) technology has helped to achieve several advances in the medical field, particularly as far as fabrication of implants is concerned. But the application of direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) bone plate is quite limited due to the indeterminate mechanical property. The purposes of this study were to characterize the biomechanical properties of the polished...

The Red-tailed Hawk and Great Horned Owl are two species of raptor that are similar in body size, diet, and habitat. Both species use their hindlimbs during hunting, but differ in foot morphology, how they approach and immobilize prey, and the average size of prey captured. They also differ in primary flight style: the Red-tailed Hawk uses static soaring and the Great Horned Owl uses flap-glidi...

In the present paper, the different techniques used for the determination of changes of surface stress of solid electrodes, as well as the kind and quality of information that can be achieved using these methods are discussed. The most important methods are briefly reviewed and advantages/drawbacks highlighted. Special attention is paid to issues related to the use of the “bending beam” (“bendi...

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer materials (CFRP) cause CFRP to bend or fail when subjected external loads impacts. In the case of static three-point bending, using conductive properties carbon inside CFRP, overall damage detection and failure prediction can be carried out by electromagnetic methods. The eddy current coil is used realize real-time monitoring damage, measured voltage value mapped...

Heat treatment is one of the environmentally friendly and cost-effective modification methods applied for improvements wood properties. However, influences exposure duration temperature should be known to provide balanced In this study, effect (80, 120, 150, 180, 210°C) (2, 5, 8 h) on longitudinal ultrasonic wave velocity, density, dynamic Modulus Elasticity-MOE (Edyn), MOE in bending, Rupture ...

According to the direct homogenization theory of inhomogeneous material, a single medium homogenization constitutive model of the confined concrete in the steel box-concrete combined member has been established, and model parameters have been determined by the measured data of the bending test. By analyzing the theoretical ultimate strength and overall process curve, the results obtained is con...

We used a spray-coating process to cover silicon microcantilevers with ca. 33 wt% [Fe(Htrz)2(trz)](BF4)@P(VDF70-TrFE30) nanocomposite thin films of 1500 nm thickness. The bilayer cantilevers were then investigate the thermomechanical properties composites through combined static and dynamic flexural analysis. out-of-plane resonance frequencies assess Young’s modulus spray-coated (3.2 GPa). Then...
