The author has proposed a method, the Levitation Mass Method (LMM). In the LMM, the inertial force of a mass levitated using a pneumatic linear bearing is used as the reference force applied to the objects under test, such as force sensors, materials or structures. The inertial force of the levitated mass is measured using an optical interferometer. The author has modified it as calibration met...

The concept of floating submerged tunnels becomes increasingly attractive idea to cross the straits. The structural solution in these bridges includes buoyancy force on tunnel body plus tension in mooring tethers. This paper investigates the effect of submergence on the dynamic response of submerged floating tunnels due to moving load. The inertial effect of the fluid on the submerged structure...

The paper presented by Gautier and Khalil [1] gives a direct and efficient method to calculate most of the minimum inertial parameters of serial robots. Some parameters concerning the translational links between the first rotational joints which are not parallel need particular calculation, partial results concerning the case where these links are either perpendicular or parallel are given in t...

We investigate inertial mode oscillations of slowly and uniformly rotating, isentropic, Newtonian stars. Inertial mode oscillations are induced by the Coriolis force due to the star’s rotation, and their characteristic frequencies are comparable with the rotation frequency Ω of the star. So called r-mode oscillations form a sub-class of the inertial modes. In this paper, we use the term “r-mode...

We apply the theory of non-inertial frames in Minkowski space-time, developed in the previous paper, to various relevant physical systems. We give the 3+1 description without coordinatesingularities of the rotating disk and the Sagnac effect, with added comments on pulsar magnetosphere and on a relativistic extension of the Earth-fixed coordinate system. Then we study properties of Maxwell equa...

We address on general quantum-statistical grounds the problem of optimal detection of the Unruh-Hawking effect. We show that the effect signatures are magnified up to potentially observable levels if the scalar field to be probed has high mean energy from an inertial perspective: The Unruh-Hawking effect acts like an amplification channel. We prove that a field in a Fock inertial state, probed ...

Amongst the variety of complex phenomena encountered in nonlinear physics, a hysteretic effect can be expected on ultrasound cavitation due to the intrinsic nonlinearity of bubble dynamics. When applying successive ultrasound shots for increasing and decreasing acoustic intensities, a hysteretic behaviour is experimentally observed on inertial cavitation activity, with a loop area sensitive to ...

abstractbackground : in order to quantify effects of ultrasound irradiation parameters under therapeutic condition, especially sonodynamic therapy, it is initially necessary to evaluate inertial cavitation activity in vitro conditions therefore, in this study, the effect of 1 mhz low level ultrasound based on °oh radicals generated by acoustic inertial cavitation in aqueous solution was monitor...

We study the distribution of entanglement between modes of a free scalar field from the perspective of observers in relative acceleration. The degradation of entanglement due to the Unruh effect is analytically studied for two parties detecting a two-mode squeezed state in an inertial frame, in the cases of either one or both observers undergoing uniform acceleration. We find that for two non-i...
