The Moment Map Revisited
In this paper, we show that the notion of moment map for the Hamiltonian action of a Lie group on a symplectic manifold is a special case of a much more general notion. In particular, we show that one can associate a moment map to a family of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms, and we prove that its image is characterized, as in the classical case, by a generalized “energy-period” relation.
متن کاملDeviation from power law of the global seismic moment distribution
The distribution of seismic moment is of capital interest to evaluate earthquake hazard, in particular regarding the most extreme events. We make use of likelihood-ratio tests to compare the simple Gutenberg-Richter power-law (PL) distribution with two statistical models that incorporate an exponential tail, the so-called tapered Gutenberg-Richter (Tap) and the truncated gamma, when fitted to t...
متن کاملUniversality of the Seismic Moment-frequency Relation
We analyze the seismic moment-frequency relation in various depth ranges and for different seismic regions, using Flinn-Engdahl’s regionalization of global seismicity. Three earthquake lists of centroid-moment tensor data have been used: the Harvard catalog, the USGS catalog, and the HUANG et al. (1997) catalog of deep earthquakes. The results confirm the universality of the b-values and the ma...
متن کاملSeismic behavior of drilled beam section in moment connections
Abstract: Reduced Beam Section (RBS) and Drilled Beam Section (DBS) are seismic moment resistant frame connections, introduced after 1994 Northridge earthquake. RBS connection has been tested under cyclic loading and showed acceptable performance. In this paper, seismic behavior of Drilled Beam Section (DBS) connection is studied numerically using finite element method. A drilled beam section ...
متن کاملQuantum moment hydrodynamics and the entropy principle
This paper presents how a non-commutative version of the entropy extremalization principle allows to construct new quantum hydrodynamic models. Our starting point is the moment method, which consists in integrating the quantum Liouville equation with respect to momentum p against a given vector of monomials of p. Like in the classical case, the so-obtained moment system is not closed. Inspired ...
