Principal part of multi-parameter displacement functions
2012
This paper deals with a perturbation problem from a period annulus, for an analytic Hamiltonian system [J.-P. Françoise, Ergodic Theory Dynam. Systems 16 (1996), no. 1, 87–96 ; L. Gavrilov, Ann. Fac. Sci. Toulouse Math. (6) 14(2005), no. 4, 663–682. The authors consider the planar polynomial multi-parameter deformations and determine the coefficients in the expansion of the displacement function generated on a transversal section to the period annulus. Their first result gives a generalization to the Françoise algorithm for a one-parameter family, following [J.-P. Françoise and M. Pelletier, J. Dyn. Control Syst. 12 (2006), no. 3, 357–369. The second result expresses the principal terms in …
NMR Studies of Single-File Diffusion in Unidimensional Channel Zeolites
1996
Single-file diffusion is the restricted propagation of particles that cannot pass each other. The occurrence of this phenomenon should be reflected by a change in the time dependence of the mean particle displacement in comparison with ordinary diffusion. Although this process is considered to be the rate-controlling mechanism in a large variety of processes, so far no direct evidence of this phenomenon has been provided. Diffusion measurements made with pulsed field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in unidimensional pore systems (zeolites AlPO4-5 and Theta-1) reflect the expected time dependence of single-file diffusion.

Description
Multidomain Symmetric Galerkin BEM for non-linear analysis of masonries in-plane loaded
2014
The preservation of the historical and monumental buildings, but also of the considerable heritage of old constructions made by traditional techniques, is one of the actual problems of the structural mechanics. The level of knowledge of their structural behavior in presence of external actions is made through calculus methods and simple procedures in order to allow a reading of the material suffering degree and as a consequence of the related safety. In this paper an elastic analysis of walls, also in presence of geometrical nonlinearity consisting in the contact/detachment phenomenon among stone blocks. The wall having any shape and zone-wise variable physical characteristics is loaded in …
Mirror and triplet displacement energies within nuclear DFT: : numerical stability
2017
Isospin-symmetry-violating class II and III contact terms are introduced into the Skyrme energy density functional to account for charge dependence of the strong nuclear interaction. The two new coupling constants are adjusted to available experimental data on triplet and mirror displacement energies, respectively. We present preliminary results of the fit, focusing on its numerical stability with respect to the basis size.
Radiation displacement defect formation in some complex oxide crystals
2000
The work is devoted to an analysis of the formation processes of radiation displacement defects (RDDs) and color centers (CCs) under irradiation of complex oxide crystals. The results of the displacement process simulation as well as the analysis of the RDDs and CCs accumulation kinetics in some complex oxide crystals are presented. New experimental results on additional absorption spectra induced by neutron irradiation of LiNbO3 (LNO) crystals doped with Fe and Cr and YAlO3 (YAP) crystals doped with Nd and Er as well are presented. Dose dependencies are compared and their peculiarities are discussed. ” 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
Isospin-symmetry breaking in masses of ≃ Nuclei
2018
Effects of the isospin-symmetry breaking (ISB) beyond mean-field Coulomb terms are systematically studied in nuclear masses near the N=Z line. The Coulomb exchange contributions are calculated exactly. We use extended Skyrme energy density functionals (EDFs) with proton–neutron-mixed densities, to which we add new terms breaking the isospin symmetry. Two parameters associated with the new terms are determined by fitting mirror and triplet displacement energies (MDEs and TDEs) of isospin multiplets. The new EDFs reproduce MDEs for the T=12 doublets and T=1 triplets, and TDEs for the T=1 triplets. Relative strengths of the obtained isospin-symmetry-breaking terms are not consistent with the d…
Nuclear structure theory for the astrophysical rp-process and r-process
2003
Abstract The astrophysical processes of rapid-proton capture and rapid-neutron capture require the knowledge of many nuclear properties which are not known from experiment. I will describe two examples of how theoretical models are used to provide this input. The first of these uses the Hartree-Fock method for displacement energies to obtain the masses of proton-rich nuclei needed for the rp-process. The second uses a model for configuration mixing near 132 Sn to provide Q values and beta-decay lifetimes for the r-process.
Computational aspects in 2D SBEM analysis with domain inelastic actions
2009
The Symmetric Boundary Element Method, applied to structures subjected to temperature and inelastic actions, shows singular domain integrals. In the present paper the strong singularity involved in the domain integrals of the stresses and tractions is removed, and by means of a limiting operation, this traction is evaluated on the boundary. First the weakly singular domain integral in the Somigliana Identity (S.I.) of the displacements is regularized and the singular integral is transformed into a boundary one using the Radial Integration Method; subsequently, using the differential operator applied to the displacement field, the S.I. of the tractions inside the body is obtained and through…
The Hu-Washizu variational principle for the identification of imperfections in beams
2008
This paper presents a procedure for the identification of imperfections of structural parameters based on displacement measurements by static tests. The proposed procedure is based on the well-known Hu–Washizu variational principle, suitably modified to account for the response measurements, which is able to provide closed-form solutions to some inverse problems for the identification of structural parameter imperfections in beams.
