Finite groups with a given number of relative centralizers

We will study all finite groups and their subgroups with at most four relative centralizers.     

Corrigendum to: When is a sum of annihilator ideals an annihilator ideal?

In this corrigendum, we correct the statement and proof of Lemma 3.2, revise the proofs of Lemma 3.3 and Theorem 3.5, retract Proposition 3.10 and correct several typographical errors.     

Static Charge Susceptibility in the <Emphasis Type="Italic">t-J-V</Emphasis> Model

We describe the static charge susceptibility and correlation function of the charge density in the twodimensional t-J-V model based on the method of equations of motion for the relaxation functions of the Hubbard operators. We obtain the dependence of the susceptibility and correlation function on the hole concentration and temperature. Charge density waves can develop if the intersite Coulomb interaction is sufficiently strong.

Anisotropic Elastic-Viscoplastic Properties at Finite Strains of Injection-Moulded Low-Density Polyethylene

Injection-moulding is one of the most common manufacturing processes used for polymers. In many applications, the mechanical properties of the product is of great importance. Injection-moulding of thin-walled polymer products tends to leave the polymer structure in a state where the mechanical properties are anisotropic, due to alignment of polymer chains along the melt flow direction. The anisotropic elastic-viscoplastic properties of low-density polyethylene, that has undergone an injection-moulding process, are therefore examined in the present work. Test specimens were punched out from injection-moulded plates and tested in uniaxial tension. Three in-plane material directions were investigated. Because of the small thickness of the plates, only the in-plane properties could be determined. Tensile tests with both monotonic and cyclic loading were performed, and the local strains on the surface of the test specimens were measured using image analysis. True stress vs. true strain diagrams were constructed, and the material response was evaluated using an elastic-viscoplasticity law. The components of the anisotropic compliance matrix were determined together with the direction-specific plastic hardening parameters.
