We consider brane-induced gravity model in more than one extra dimensions, regularized by assuming that the bulk gravity is soft in ultraviolet. We study linear theory about flat multi-dimensional space-time and flat brane. We first find that this model allows for violation of equivalence between gravitational and inertial masses of brane matter. We then observe that the model has a scalar ghos...

We study self-consistent cosmological solutions for an Einstein Universe in a graphbased induced gravity model. The graph-based field theory has been proposed by the present authors to generalize dimensional deconstruction. In this paper, we consider self-consistent Einstein equations for a “graph theory space”. Especially, we demonstrate specific results for cycle graphs. 1 Pre-history 1.1 Ind...

Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) are composed of glass, plastic, non-ferrous metal, ferrous metal, paper, plastic, rubber, and so on. In order to separate glass and plastic among CFLs components, air separation unit is applied using the difference in specific gravity. Since specific gravities of glass, plastic, non-ferrous metals, rubber, etc. were widely spread, it can be separated by the diff...

a new method derived by salem et al. (2004) for interpretation of gravity and magnetic anomalies is used to determine the depth and shape factor of the gravity anomalies. the depth and shape factor of some rectangular prisms as synthetic models are estimated using the method. the gravity effects of the models are contaminated with some random noise and then the parameters of the models are extr...

Explicit solutions of the two-dimensional floating body problem (bodies that can float in all positions) for relative density ρ 6= 1 2 and of the tire track problem (tire tracks of a bicycle, which do not allow to determine, which way the bicycle went) are given, which differ from circles. Starting point is the differential equation given by the author in [8, 9].

Quantum theory of conformal factor coupled with matter fields is investigated. The more simple case of the purely classical scalar matter is considered. It is calculated the conformal factor contribution to the effective potential of scalar field. Then the possibility of the first order phase transition is explored and the induced values of Newtonian and cosmological constants are calculated.

In this letter we work out the secular precession of the spin of a gyroscope in geodesic motion around a central mass in the framework of the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati multidimensional gravity model. Such an effect, which depends on the mass of the central body and on the orbit radius of the gyroscope, contrary to the precessions of the orbital elements of the orbit of a test body, is far too sma...

in this study, the effect of several species of fermenting yeast and fermentation conditions (periodic aeration and temperature) on quality parameters of non-alcoholic beer is assessed. yeast starters with different inoculation percent were added separately into wort with determined gravity. wort was fermented for 48 h in different temperatures under aerobic condition or periodic aeration (ever...

the experimental study and modeling of gravity drainage during water alternative gas injection, wag process, in carbonate rock for one of the iranian off-shore reservoir at lab-scale were carried out. the mechanism of gravity drainage during the wag process, and its contribution to the oil recovery in the fractured carbonate reservoirs were also studied. in the wag process alternatively gas is ...
