Zewnątrzustrojowa Fala Uderzeniowa (ESW) jako alternatywna metoda wspomagająca terapię porażenia spastycznego mięśni kończyn w wyniku udaru mózgu - p…
2017
Zewnątrzustrojowa fala uderzeniowa (ESW – Extracorporeal Shock Wave) jest czynnikiem fizykalnym, którego zastosowanie kliniczne obserwowane jest w szerokiej gamie zaburzeń chorobowych, szczególnie dysfunkcji narządu ruchu. Obecnie zaobserwować można, iż lista wskazań do zabiegów ESW stale rośnie i obejmuje swym zasięgiem coraz to bardziej odmienne pod względem etiologii i patomechanizmu schorzenia ogólnoustrojowe. Niemniej jednak pamiętać należy, iż potencjalne mechanizmy biologiczne stymulacji ESW, warunkujące korzystne i pożądane efekty terapeutyczne, nie są jednoznacznie wyjaśnione. W świecie nauki w dalszym ciągu obserwowany jest brak niepodważalnych dowodów popartych zaawansowanymi bad…
Evaluation of Clutch Plate Integrity with Non-Destructive Methods
2009
Abstract Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) represents an important phase in the life cycle of a product to detect defects both in service and in production. NDE techniques most commonly used to detect surface defects are visual inspection and methods based on eddy current and ultrasound. Laser and non-contact sensors have been recently used to inspect ultrasonically without contact. Components with complex geometry are usually inspected combining several NDE techniques, or simply visually where analysis and evaluation of results are performed by an operator based on specific parameters of acceptance. This last method is currently used to inspect the clutch plates since their complex geometry,…
Cubic color charge correlator in a proton made of three quarks and a gluon
2022
The three point correlation function of color charge densities is evaluated explicitly in light cone gauge for a proton on the light cone. This includes both $C$-conjugation even and odd contributions. We account for perturbative corrections to the three-quark light cone wave function due to the emission of an internal gluon which is not required to be soft. We verify the Ward identity as well as the cancellation of UV divergences in the sum of all diagrams so that the correlator is independent of the renormalization scale. It does, however, exhibit the well known soft and collinear singularities. The expressions derived here provide the $C$-odd contribution to the initial conditions for hi…
Controlling Atom-Photon Bound States in an Array of Josephson-Junction Resonators
2022
Engineering the electromagnetic environment of a quantum emitter gives rise to a plethora of exotic light -matter interactions. In particular, photonic lattices can seed long-lived atom-photon bound states inside photonic band gaps. Here, we report on the concept and implementation of a novel microwave architecture consisting of an array of compact superconducting resonators in which we have embedded two frequency -tunable artificial atoms. We study the atom-field interaction and access previously unexplored coupling regimes, in both the single-and double-excitation subspace. In addition, we demonstrate coherent interactions between two atom-photon bound states, in both resonant and dispers…
Numerical treatment of radiation processes in the internal shocks of magnetized relativistic outflows
2017
Los blázares son un tipo de núcleo activo de galaxia (AGN, por sus siglas en inglés) que se encuentran entre los objetos astrofísicos más energéticos y violentos, a la par de los brotes de rayos gamma (GRB por sus siglas en inglés). Los procesos físicos y, en particular, el escenario del chorro relativista en el que se genera la radiación ultraenergética detectada por observatorios terrestres y en órbita, han conseguido atraer la atención e interés de los astrónomos y astrofísicos desde su descubrimiento. En la presente tesis investigamos el modelo de choques internos (IS) cuya hipótesis consta del choque de dos capas de plasma con geometría cilíndrica, formando dos ondas de choque que atra…
Generalized wave propagation problems and discrete exterior calculus
2018
We introduce a general class of second-order boundary value problems unifying application areas such as acoustics, electromagnetism, elastodynamics, quantum mechanics, and so on, into a single framework. This also enables us to solve wave propagation problems very efficiently with a single software system. The solution method precisely follows the conservation laws in finite-dimensional systems, whereas the constitutive relations are imposed approximately. We employ discrete exterior calculus for the spatial discretization, use natural crystal structures for three-dimensional meshing, and derive a “discrete Hodge” adapted to harmonic wave. The numerical experiments indicate that the cumulat…
Topological canal foliations
2019
Regular canal surfaces of $\mathbb{R}^3$ or $\mathbb{S}^3$ admit foliations by circles: the characteristic circles of the envelope. In order to build a foliation of $\mathbb{S}^3$ with leaves being canal surfaces, one has to relax the condition “canal” a little (“weak canal condition”) in order to accept isolated umbilics. Here, we define a topological condition which generalizes this “weak canal” condition imposed on leaves, and classify the foliations of compact orientable 3-manifolds we can obtain this way.
Acoustic wave guides as infinite-dimensional dynamical systems
2015
We prove the unique solvability, passivity/conservativity and some regularity results of two mathematical models for acoustic wave propagation in curved, variable diameter tubular structures of finite length. The first of the models is the generalised Webster's model that includes dissipation and curvature of the 1D waveguide. The second model is the scattering passive, boundary controlled wave equation on 3D waveguides. The two models are treated in an unified fashion so that the results on the wave equation reduce to the corresponding results of approximating Webster's model at the limit of vanishing waveguide intersection.
Rotational effects on the oscillation frequencies of newly born proto-neutron stars
2003
In this paper we study the effects of rotation on the frequencies of the quasi-normal modes of a proto-neutron star (PNS) born in a gravitational collapse during the first minute of life. Our analysis starts a few tenths of seconds after the PNS formation, when the stellar evolution can be described by a sequence of equilibrium configurations. We use the evolutionary models developed by Pons et al. (1999; 2001) that describe how a non rotating star cools down and contracts while neutrino diffusion and thermalization processes dominate the stellar dynamics. For assigned values of the evolution time, we set the star into slow rotation and integrate the equations of stellar perturbations in th…
8-parameter solutions of fifth order to the Johnson equation
2019
We give different representations of the solutions of the Johnson equation with parameters. First, an expression in terms of Fredholm determinants is given; we give also a representation of the solutions written as a quotient of wronskians of order 2N. These solutions of order N depend on 2N − 1 parameters. When one of these parameters tends to zero, we obtain N order rational solutions expressed as a quotient of two polyno-mials of degree 2N (N +1) in x, t and 4N (N +1) in y depending on 2N −2 parameters. Here, we explicitly construct the expressions of the rational solutions of order 5 depending on 8 real parameters and we study the patterns of their modulus in the plane (x, y) and their …
