We consider a chain of coupled pendula pairs, where each pendulum is connected to the nearest neighbors in the longitudinal and transverse directions. The common strings in each pair are modulated periodically by an external force. In the…
We compute, via numerical simulations, the non-perturbative Coulomb potential of pure SU(3) gauge theory in Coulomb gauge. We find that that the Coulomb potential scales nicely in accordance with asymptotic freedom, that the Coulomb…
Recently, first limits on putative Lorentz invariance violation coefficients in the pure gravity sector were determined by the reanalysis of short-range gravity experiments. Such experiments search for new physics at sidereal frequencies.…
Treatises on vibrations devote large space to study the dynamical behavior of an elastic system subject to known external tractions. In fact, usually a "system" is not an isolated body but it is part of a chain of mechanisms which disturb…
We generalize the ideas and formalism of Two-Time Physics from particle dynamics to some specific examples of string and p-brane (p >= 1) dynamics. The two-time string or p-brane action can be gauge fixed to produce various one-time string…
The torsion pendulum at the heart of the apparatus to measure the gravitational constant, $G$ at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM) is used to measure the gravitational torque between source and test-mass assemblies with…
Various adaptive abilities are required for robots interacting with humans in daily life. It is difficult to design adaptive algorithms manually; however, by using end-to-end machine learning, labor can be saved during the design process.…
This paper presents an analytical model and a geometric numerical integrator for a rigid body connected to an elastic string, acting under a gravitational potential. Since the point where the string is attached to the rigid body is…
We compute the string tension in massive $QCD_2$. It is shown that the string tension vanishes when the mass of the dynamical quark is zero, with no dependence on the representations of the dynamical or of the external charges. When a small…
Template and prunning front are calculated for an experimental chaotic time series from a mechanical string experiment. An empirical synchronized model is also created for the data set. To appear in Physical Review E.
We measure and compare the rotational and transverse velocity of a bowed string. When bowed by an experienced player, the torsional motion is phase-locked to the transverse waves, producing highly periodic motion. The spectrum of the…
When a falling ball chain strikes a surface, a tension is created that pulls the chain downward. This causes a downward acceleration that is larger than free-fall, which has been observed by recent experiments. Here a theoretical…
We characterized a double torsion pendulum system, including measurements of the photon-spin-induced torque. Our experimental strategy was similar to that used in Beth's experiment, which was performed in 1936 to measure photon-spin-induced…
The MIT bag model is shown to be wrong because the bag pressure cannot be held constant, and the volume can be fixed in terms of it. The bag derivation of Regge's trajectories is invalidated by an integration of the energy and angular…
Experiments on a chain of coupled pendula driven periodically at one end demonstrate the existence of a novel regime which produces an output frequency at an odd fraction of the driving frequency. The new stationary state is then obtained…
Cellular traction forces are conventionally measured by tracking the displacement of beads or micropillars, an approach fundamentally limited by optical diffraction and the classical Euler-Bernoulli beam assumption, which is accurate only…
The use of complex networks for time series analysis has recently shown to be useful as a tool for detecting dynamic state changes for a wide variety of applications. In this work, we implement the commonly used ordinal partition network to…
I review the status of the issue of the k-string tension in Yang-Mills theory. After a summary of known facts I discuss a weakly coupled four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory that supports non-Abelian strings and can, in certain aspects, serve…
We report a numerical evidence that the string tension \sigma can be viewed as an order parameter of the phase transition, which separates the smooth phase from the crumpled one, in the fluid surface model of Helfrich and Polyakov-Kleinert.…
In the paper a novel stochastic algorithm designed to study of chain-like bodies dynamics is introduced. This algorithm models chain movements induced by the tension propagation and its main idea relies on the sequentialization of each…
