Parametric resonance and jump analysis of a beam subjected to periodic mass transition

Nonlinear Dynamics - In this paper, the dynamic stability of a simply supported beam excited by the transition of circulating masses is investigated by preserving nonlinear terms in the analysis....     

Weak Gravitational Field and Casimir Energy

In this paper we consider the effect of a weak gravitation field on the Casimir energy. Under a weak perturbation of a metric, we first obtain the linear energy-momentum tensor of a scalar field in a generic background and then the corrected energy of a scalar filed which satisfies the Dirichlet boundary condition is calculated up to first order of the metric perturbation. We show that our results coincide to the previous related works e.g., the Casimir effect when studied in Fermi coordinates.     

Weak Gravitational Wave and Casimir Energy of a Scalar Field

In this paper, we calculate the effect of a weak gravitational field on the Casimir force between two ideal plates subjected to a massless minimally coupled field. It is the aim of this work to study the Casimir energy under a weak perturbation of gravity. Moreover, the fluctuations of the stress-energy tensor for a scalar field in de Sitter space-time are computed as well.
