This paper investigates the parametric stability of an axially moving web subjected to non-uniform in-plane edge excitations on two opposite, simply-supported edges. The web is modeled as a viscoelastic plate whose constitutive relation obeys the Kelvin-Voigt model, and the in-plane edge excitations are expressed as the sum of a static tension and a periodical perturbation. Due to the in-plane ...

In this paper we present a super-resolving approach for detecting an axially moving target that is based upon a time-multiplexing concept and that overcomes the diffraction limit set by the optics of an imaging camera by a priori knowledge of the high-resolution background in front of which the target is moving. As the movement trajectory is axial, the approach can be applied to targets that ar...

An alternative theoretical description of axial electron channeling in the multi-GeV region has been developed. We solve a kinetic equation to evaluate an electron distribution function in axially oriented single crystals. Based on the single-string model, the required matrix elements for radiation and scattering by lattice vibrations are calculated employing solutions of the Dirac equation in ...

We present results of a cosmological hydrodynamical study of gravitational accretion in cosmic string wakes and filaments. Cosmic string wakes are formed by fast moving (v ∼ c) strings. A conical deficit angle in the string spacetime induces a velocity perturbation in the background matter and a two-dimensional wake accretes in the path of the string. Filaments are formed by slow moving strings...

We study the symmetry property of extremal functions to a family of weighted Sobolev inequalities due to Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg. By using the moving plane method, we prove that all non-radial extremal functions are axially symmetric with respect to a line passing through the origin.

By making the moving direction of each disc explicit in the representation, a bit-string so constructed can be used to drive the Tower of Hanoi algorithm. The behaviour of disc moves is further analyzed based on the bit-string representation. It has been shown that the bit-string for moving n discs can be used to generate successively the Gray codes of n bits.

In this paper, a robust vibration control scheme of the axially moving steel strip in the zinc galvanizing line is considered. The boundary control force is applied to the strip through the two touch rolls connected to a hydraulic actuator. The mathematical model of the system, which consists of a partial differential equation describing the dynamics of the traveling steel strip and an ordinary...
