Local entropic effects of polymers grafted to soft interfaces

In this paper, we study the equilibrium properties of polymer chains end-tethered to a fluid membrane. The loss of conformational entropy of the polymer results in an inhomogeneous pressure field that we calculate for Gaussian chains. We estimate the effects of excluded volume through a relation between pressure and concentration. Under the polymer pressure, a soft surface will deform. We calculate the deformation profile for a fluid membrane and show that close to the grafting point, this profile assumes a cone-like shape, independently of the boundary conditions. Interactions between different polymers are also mediated by the membrane deformation. This pair-additive potential is attractive for chains grafted on the same side of the membrane and repulsive otherwise. Received 20 April 2000

Open dynamic behaviour of financial markets

Open dynamic behaviour of financial markets with internal interactions between agents and with external “fields” from other systems are investigated using the approach of Grossman and Stiglitz for inefficient markets, and Keynes for interference of the market using physics of finance (referred to hereafter as phynance). The simulation results indicate that the NYSE data analyzed in Plerou, V. et al., Nature 421, 130 (2003) can be fitted by an equation of order parameter Φ and local deviation R of type: -(R+0.03) Φ+ 0.6 Φ³ + 0.02 = 0, which is shown to be in remarkable agreement with Plerou's data.

A coupled zigzag theory for the dynamics of piezoelectric hybrid cross-ply plates

A recently developed coupled third-order zigzag theory for the statics of piezoelectric hybrid cross-ply plates is extended to dynamics. The theory combines a third-order zigzag approximation for the in-plane displacements and a sub-layerwise linear approximation for the electric potential, considering all components of the electric field. The nonuniform variation of the transverse displacement due to the piezoelectric field is accounted for. The conditions for the absence of shear traction at the top and bottom surfaces and continuity of transverse shear stresses in the presence of electromechanical loading are satisfied exactly, thereby reducing the number of displacement variables to five, which is the same as in a first- or third-order equivalent single-layer theory. The governing equations of motion are derived from the extended Hamilton's principle. The theory is assessed by comparing the Navier solutions for the free and forced harmonic vibration response of simply supported plates with the exact three-dimensional piezoelasticity solutions. Comparisons for hybrid test, composite and sandwich plates establish that the present theory is quite accurate for the dynamic response of moderately thick plates.     

Limit states of elastic–viscoplastic plate deformations caused by repeated shock wave-loadings. Part 1: Experimental observation

In the present work, the evolution of the inelastic centre deflections of shock wave-loaded circular metal plates due to repeated loadings is studied experimentally and numerically. These displacements are compared to those of quasi-statically deformed plates loaded by a pressure equal to the peak pressure of the impulsive loading. Thereby three types of permanent centre deflections are observed: (1) The quasi-statically obtained deflection is exceeded by the middle point displacement of a dynamically loaded structure already after the first impulse and tends towards a limit state after repeated shock wave-loadings. (2) The centre deflection of the impulsively loaded plate exceeds also the quasi-statically caused deflection and does not increase after repeated impulsive loadings any more. (3) The permanent middle point displacement of a dynamically loaded plate is smaller than the deflection of a quasi-statically loaded one and tends towards the middle point displacement of the quasi-static counterpart after repeated shock wave loadings. This phenomenon is known in the literature as ‘Pseudo-shakedown’.

In Part 1 of this study the experimental observation is described, followed by a theoretical study in Part 2.     

Dynamique multi-contact d'un système de solides tridimensionnels rigidesMulti-contact dynamics of a set of three-dimensional rigid bodies

This study is in keeping with the general pattern of dynamical simulations of a set of rigid three-dimensional bodies submitted to unilateral contact constraints with dry friction. An exact formulation (respecting the contact and friction laws) of the problem of predicting the system accelerations and the contact status, in further evolution is proposed. A numerical treatment of this kind of nonlinear problem is presented. This approach is applied to a simple multi-contact example, and yields results in agreement with those of analytical and numerical type, known for this example. To cite this article: C.
