Since the inception of Computational Fluid Dynamics, turbulence model-ing and numerical methods evolved as two separate fields of research with the perception that once a turbulence model is developed, any suitable computational approach can be used for the numerical simulations of the model. Over the last decade, our group has pursued research with cardinally different philosophy in its belief...

Renormalization group theory does not restrict the form of continuous variation of critical exponents which occurs in presence of a marginal operator. However, the continuous variation of critical exponents, observed in different contexts, usually follows a weak universality scenario where some of the exponents (e.g., β, γ, ν) vary keeping others (e.g., δ, η) fixed. Here we report ferromagnetic...

We propose a new process for continuously reconjgurable robotics. Given a task, a robot evolves a suitable movhologv and control, then prints the assembled 30 structure, downloads into it andper$orms the task, and then recycles into a diflerent form for the next task. This approach relinquishes the need to adhere to discrete or fuced components as well as manually designed configurations. Altho...

A multimode model of a continuously pumped atom laser is shown to be unstable below a critical value of the scattering length. Above the critical scattering length, the atom laser reaches a steady state, the stability of which increases with pumping. Below this limit the laser does not reach a steady state. This instability results from the competition between gain and loss for the excited stat...

abstract: a continuously variable transmission (cvt) is a transmission which may change step less by way of an infinite variety of effective gear ratios between maximum and minimum values. this contrasts with different mechanical transmissions that solely permit just a few different distinct gear ratios to be selected. continuously variable transmissions (cvts) are mechanical devices that allow...

A major challenge in paraphrase research is the lack of parallel corpora. In this paper, we present a new method to collect large-scale sentential paraphrases from Twitter by linking tweets through shared URLs. The main advantage of our method is its simplicity, as it gets rid of the classifier or human in the loop needed to select data before annotation and subsequent application of paraphrase...

Most physical and biological systems are disordered, even while the majority of theoretical models treat disorder as a weak perturbation. One particularly simple system is a ferromagnet approaching its Curie temperature, T C , where all of the spins associated with partially-filled atomic shells acquire parallel orientation. With the addition of disorder via chemical substitution, the Curie poi...

We report the characteristics of a flux locked, superfluid 4He interferometer that can continuously measure time-varying rotation rates. We describe the principles underlying the interferometer, including the dynamics of a superfluid chemical potential battery used to obtain continuous operation. We also discuss noise and drift issues and their possible amelioration.
