Cracks in beams and shallow arches are modeled by massless rotational springs. First, we introduce a specially designed linear operator that "absorbs" the boundary conditions at the cracks. Then the equations of motion are derived from the…
A non-dissipative model for vortex motion in thin superconductors is considered. The Lagrangian is a Galilean invariant version of the Ginzburg--Landau model for time-dependent fields, with kinetic terms linear in the first time derivatives…
Stochastic mechanics is regarded as a physical theory to explain quantum mechanics with classical terms such that some of the quantum mechanics paradoxes can be avoided. Here we propose a new variational principle to uncover more insights…
In a realistic scenario, the evolution of the rotational dynamics of a celestial or artificial body is subject to dissipative effects. Time-varying non-conservative forces can be due to, for example, a variation of the moments of inertia or…
A fundamental issue in classical electrodynamics is represented by the search of the exact equation of motion for a classical charged particle under the action of its electromagnetic (EM) self-field - the so-called radiation-reaction…
We formulate a Hamiltonian description of the orbital motion of a point particle in Kerr spacetime for generic (eccentric, inclined) orbits, which accounts for the effects of the conservative part of the gravitational self-force. This…
The original concepts behind The Full Nonlinear Vortex Tube-Vorton Method (FTVM) have been applied to the study of massively separated fluid flow past a thin body. In the pre-stall condition, the Kutta-Zhukovski (KJ) force calculation was…

The classical theory of lift is confined to sharp edged airfoils. The search for a more general closure condition in potential flow remained elusive for over a century. Recently, a variational theory of lift, inspired by Gauss's principle…
We derive rigorously the reduced dynamical laws for quantized vortex dynamics of the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation on torus when the core size of vortex $\varepsilon\to 0$. The reduced dynamical laws of the complex Ginzburg-Landau…
We apply the adiabatic approximation to investigate the low energy dynamics of vortices in the parity invariant double self-dual Higgs model with only mutual Chern-Simons interaction. When distances between solitons are large they are…
Friction is central to the motion of active (self-propelled) objects such as bacteria, animals, and robots. While in a viscous fluid friction is described by Stokes's law, objects in contact with other solid bodies are often governed by…
The application of variational principles for analyzing problems in the physical sciences is widespread. Cantilever-like problems, where one end is fixed and the other end is free, have received less attention in terms of their stability…
The notion of inertial reference frame is abandoned and I replaced it by a local reference frame on which the fundamental law of mechanics is expressed. The distant interactions of cause and effect are modeled by the propagation of waves…
We consider a single Abelian Higgs vortex on a surface {\Sigma} whose Gaussian curvature K is small relative to the size of the vortex, and analyse vortex motion by using geodesics on the moduli space of static solutions. The moduli space…
We study the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation for the dynamics of a magnetic vortex system. We present a PDE-based method for proving vortex dynamics that does not rely on strong well-preparedness of the initial data and allows for…
It is well known that a superfluid rotates by forming an array of quantized vortices. A relativistic formulation for superfluid vortex dynamics is required for a range of problems in astrophysics and cosmology, from neutron star interiors…
Existence of a stationary mode for a Hamiltonian dynamic system of two point vortexes with different signs on different latitudes of a uniform rotating sphere complying with observed data is stated. It is shown that such mode realization is…
Variational methods have been widely used in soft matter physics for both static and dynamic problems. These methods are mostly based on two variational principles: the variational principle of minimum free energy (MFEVP) and Onsager's…
The dynamics of quantized vortices in weakly interacting superfluids are often modeled by a nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. In contrast, we show that quantized vortices in fact obey a non-Hamiltonian evolution equation, which enhances…
