When a mobile manipulator's wheel loses contact with the ground, tipping-over may occur, causing material damage, and in the worst case, it can put human lives in danger. The tip-over stability of wheeled mobile manipulators must not be…

We show that in the Ising pure $p$-spin model of spin glasses, shattering takes place at all inverse temperatures $\beta \in (\sqrt{(2 \log p)/p}, \sqrt{2\log 2})$ when $p$ is sufficiently large as a function of $\beta$. Of special interest…

In this article, we examine the well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of the energy associated with the wave equation that incorporates a Kelvin-Voigt nonlocal damping structure given by $-||\nabla u_t(t)||_2^2 \Delta u_t$. Utilizing the…

In a previous paper, we computed the energy density and the non-linear energy cascade rate for transverse kink waves using Elsasser variables. In this paper, we focus on the standing kink waves, which are impulsively excited in coronal…

Particles subject to weak contact interactions in a finite-size lattice tend to thermalise. The Hamiltonian evolution ensures energy conservation and the final temperature is fully determined by the initial conditions. In this work we show…

The author considers the planar rotational motion of the mathematical pendulum with its pivot oscillating both vertically and horizontally, so the trajectory of the pivot is an ellipse close to a circle. The analysis is based on the exact…

We present a broad range of measurements of the angular orientation theta_0(t) of the large-scale circulation (LSC) of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection as a function of time. We used two cylindrical samples of different overall sizes,…

Bending waves are perhaps the most fundamental and analytically tractable phenomena in warped disc dynamics. In this work we conduct 3D grid-based, numerical experiments of bending waves in laminar, viscous hydrodynamic and turbulent,…

In this paper we analyze the spinning motion of the hovering magnetic top. We have observed that its motion looks different from that of a classical top. A classical top rotates about its own axis which precesses around a vertical fixed…

In this manuscript we consider the stability of periodic solutions to Lambda-Omega lattice dynamical systems. In particular, we show that an appropriate ansatz casts the lattice dynamical system as an infinite-dimensional fast-slow…

We study the large time asymptotics of a solution of the Fisher-KPP reaction-diffusion equation, with an initial condition that is a compact perturbation of a step function. A well-known result of Bramson states that, in the reference frame…

We study the dynamics of the East model, comprising a chain of uncoupled spins in a downward-pointing field. Glassy effects arise at low temperatures $T$ from the kinetic constraint that spins can only flip if their left neighbour is up. We…

Consider the trilinear form for twisted convolution on $\mathbb{R}^{2d}$: \begin{equation*} \mathcal{T}_t(\mathbf{f}):=\iint f_1(x)f_2(y)f_3(x+y)e^{it\sigma(x,y)}dxdy,\end{equation*} where $\sigma$ is a symplectic form and $t$ is a…
