Stress concentration in a three-layer plate with two cylindrical cavities

The stressed state of a thick three-layer plate with two circular holes is studied. Resolving functions are expressed in terms of Kolosov-Muskhelishvili integral potentials and modified Bessel functions. The problem is reduced to solving an infinite set of linear algebraic equations.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Prikladnaya Mekhanika, No. 18, pp. 25–28, 1987.     

The Barnett approximation in the theory of hydrodynamic fluctuations

The Langevin dynamics and fluctuational-dissipative relationships for the hydrodynamic fluctuations for systems which are described in the third Barnett order with respect to the gradients of the hydrodynamic variables are generalized on the basis of a kinetic approach.

Effect of hydrogen on the photoelectronic properties of GaAs/InGaAs quantum-well heterostructures with an island palladium layer on the surface

The effect of hydrogen on the photoluminescence and planar conductivity of GaAs/InGaAs quantum-well heterostructures with an island Pd layer at the anodically oxidized surface was studied. Unlike continuous deposited Pd layers, island layers do not cause the formation of defects in the GaAs surface region and yet the Pd layer maintains high catalytic activity with respect to hydrogen. It is found that the thermal treatment of such a structure in a hydrogen atmosphere causes atomic-hydrogen passivation of the defects in quantum wells. Studies of the characteristics of planar photoresistors with an island Pd layer acting as hydrogen sensors show that their hydrogen detectivity is approximately two orders of magnitude higher than that of diode structures with continuous Pd layers.     

Why and how to avoid standard kinetic equations I. Principles and band conduction problem

A review of ideas leading to full rejection of any finite or partially-infinite order kinetic equation linearized in external field is given on grounds of the time-convolution Generalized Master Equations (GME). By two examples (two-level and band conduction problem), it is shown how standard kinetic equations result from GME in the lowest order approximations which obscure, however, a direct correspondence with the Kubo linear response theory. Without approximations, on the other hand, the rigorous approach is shown to be fully equivalent with the Kubo results. It is argued and illustrated that usual technical simplicity and seeming physical lucidity of standard theories (connected with the presence of field-independent transfer or scattering rates in the fielddependent linearized theory) are just owing to structural features which are solely due to the lowest order approximations involved. These features (i.e. also the possibility of standard physical interpretation of kinetic phenomena) are proved to disappear completely as far as the theory goes properly to higher orders.
