In this note we derive a new nonlocal and nonlinear dispersive equations capturing the main dynamics of a circular interface separating a light, viscous fluid rising buoyantly through a heavy, more viscous, miscible fluid at small Reynolds…
We study the dynamical response of a circularly-driven rigid body, focusing on the description of intrinsic rotational behavior (reverse rotations). The model system we address is integrable but nontrivial, allowing for qualitative and…
The standard description of material media in electromagnetism is based on multipoles. It is well known that these moments depend on the point of reference chosen, except for the lowest order. It is shown that this "origin dependence" is…
The relative equilibria for the spherical, finite density 3 body problem are identified. Specifically, there are 28 distinct relative equilibria in this problem which include the classical 5 relative equilibria for the point-mass 3-body…
An extended body orbiting a compact object undergoes tidal deformations by the background gravitational field. Tidal invariants built up with the Riemann tensor and their derivatives evaluated along the world line of the body are essential…
A theoretical and experimental study of the spin-over mode induced by the elliptical instability of a flow contained in a slightly deformed rotating spherical shell is presented. This geometrical configuration mimics the liquid rotating…
We consider the inertial motion of a system constituted by a rigid body with an interior cavity entirely filled with a viscous incompressible fluid. Navier boundary conditions are imposed on the cavity surface. We prove the existence of…
In order to shed some light in the meaning of the relativistic multipolar expansions we consider different static solutions of the axially symmetric vacuum Einstein equations that in the non relativistic limit have same Newtonian moments.…
This paper is devoted to a detailed investigation of the perturbed pendulum-like motions of a heavy rigid body about a fixed point. Canonical variables that allow one to simplify the analysis of homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits are…
The horizon multipole moments of a Kerr black hole are computed from two distinct definitions that have been proposed in the literature. The first one [Ashtekar et al., Class. Quantum Grav. 21, 2549 (2004)] regards axisymmetric isolated…
While it is known that any spherical fluid distribution may only source the spherically symmetric Schwarzschild space-time, the inverse is not true. Thus, in this manuscript, we find exact axially symmetric and static fluid (interior)…
In this paper, we consider the interactions between a rigid body of general form and the incompressible perfect fluid surrounding it. Local well-posedness in the space $C([0, T); H_s)$ is obtained for the fluid-rigid body system.
For slowly rotating fluids, we establish the existence of a critical point similar to the one found for non-rotating systems. As the fluid approaches the critical point, the effective inertial mass of any fluid element decreases, vanishing…
Multipoles are paramount for describing electromagnetic fields in many areas of nanoscale optics, playing an essential role for the design of devices in plasmonics and all-dielectric nanophotonics. Challenging the traditional division into…
Numerical simulations of rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection are presented for both no slip and free slip boundaries. The goal is to find a criterion distinguishing convective flows dominated by the Coriolis force from those nearly…
Physical interpretation of some stationary and non-stationary regions of the spinning C-metric is presented. They represent different spacetime regions of a uniformly accelerated Kerr black hole. Stability of geodesics corresponding to…
We consider nonlinear multibody systems and present a suitable set of coordinates for the internal dynamics which allow to decouple the internal dynamics without the need to compute the Byrnes-Isidori form. Furthermore, we derive sufficient…
We investigate perturbations in a rotational and incompressible fluid flow. Interested in the phenomenon analogous to the black hole ergoregion instability, we verify the influence of the vorticity in the instability associated with this…
A model of the gravitational dipole is proposed in a close analogy to that of the global monopole. The physical properties and the range of validity of the model are examined as is the motion of test particles in the dipole background. It…
