A higher-order parametric nonlinear reduced-order model for imperfect structures using Neumann expansion

Nonlinear Dynamics - We present an enhanced version of the parametric nonlinear reduced-order model for shape imperfections in structural dynamics we studied in a previous work. In this model, the...     

On Characterization of Simple Orthogonal Groups of Odd Dimension in the Class of Periodic Groups

Siberian Mathematical Journal - Suppose that $ n $ is an integer, $ n\geq 3 $ . We prove that a periodic group saturated with a set of the finite simple groups $ O_{2n+1}(q) $ , where $ q $ is...     

Behavior of Andreev states for topological phase transition

Theoretical and Mathematical Physics - We consider three one-dimensional superconducting structures: 1) the one with $$p$$ -wave superconductivity; 2) the main experimental model of a nanowire with...     

Quaternion Attitude Determination by Vector Measurement

International Applied Mechanics - Quaternion attitude determination algorithms based on vector measurements are proposed. The projections of the normalized vectors in the reference and the...     

Means,Milne’s inequality,and quadrilateral area

Aequationes mathematicae - We discuss Milne’s inequality and apply it to the sides of a convex quadrilateral to derive an approximation to the area of the quadrilateral via arithmetic and...     

Stability Issues in Two-Dimensional Mathematical Models of Plasma Equilibrium in Magnetic Galathea Traps

Differential Equations - Galathea traps for confining plasma in a magnetic field created by current-carrying conductors immersed in the plasma volume constitute a promising class of objects for...

Piecewise Monotonicity for Unary Functions in o-Stable Groups

Algebra and Logic - Unary functions definable in o-stable ordered groups of nonvaluational type are studied. Such functions are proved to be piecewise monotone and continuous.
