Upcoming surveys such as \LSST{} and \Euclid{} will significantly improve the power of weak lensing a cosmological probe. To maximise information that can be extracted from these surveys, it is important to explore novel statistics complement standard shear-shear correlation function peak counts. In this work, we use recently proposed observable -- voids make parameter constraint forecasts for ...

Abstract: In this paper we consider point control of a structural acoustic model with thermoelastic effects. The key feature of this paper is that the two-dimensional plate modeling the active wall of the acoustic chamber has clamped boundary conditions. For this case a new optimal regularity result has recently become available (Triggiani, 2008). Using this new result for the plate alone, we d...

12  Abstract— In the present paper, The normal mode analysis is used to study the deformation of a rotating generalized thermoelastic medium under the influence of gravity subjected to thermal loading in the context of dual-phase-lag thermoelastic model. The exact expressions for the temperature, displacement components, and stress components are given in the physical domain and illustrated gr...

In this paper, a novel domain-independent nonlinear thermoelastic model suitable for aerothermoelastic investigations is generated with which a continuous power transformation frame between the elastic and thermal domains is formed. To achieve this, first, a distinctive power distribution of each domain is defined by means of the Bond graph notation, and the corresponding governing equation for...

We study the transport properties of particles draining from a silo using imaging and direct particle tracking. The particle displacements show a universal transition from superdiffusion to normal diffusion, as a function of the distance fallen, independent of the flow speed. In the superdiffusive (but sub-ballistic) regime, which occurs before a particle falls through its diameter, the displac...

We study the possible magnetization of cosmic voids by void galaxies. Recently, observations revealed isolated starforming galaxies within the voids. Furthermore, a major fraction of a voids volume is expected to be filled with magnetic fields of a minimum strength of about 10 −15 G on Mpc scales. We estimate the transport of magnetic energy by cosmic rays (CR) from the void galaxies into the v...

The variability of thermoelastic stresses at the Earth’s surface is investigated on different scales with a three–dimensional numerical model. Energy transfer by heat conduction and radiation of sun, atmosphere and Earth’s surface is regarded. It is shown that thermoelastic stresses are considerably high, so that they are able to assist faulting and thus force weathering of rocks. Their morphol...
