The acoustic modes of a rotating fluid-filled cavity can be used to determine the effective rotation rate of a fluid (since the resonant frequencies are modified by the flows). To be accurate, this method requires a prior knowledge of the…

Pressure-driven flow collapses when confined ($u\propto r^{2}$). Asymmetry rectifies surface activity (exchange or slip gradients) into axial flux at $\Delta P=0$ despite zero net exchange. Lorentz reciprocity yields a projection law:…

An unconstrained, non-linearly elastic, semi-infinite solid is maintained in a state of large static plane strain. A power-law relation between the pre-stretches is assumed and it is shown that this assumption is well-motivated physically…
The dynamic hyperpolarizability of a particle bound by the one-dimensional $\delta$-function potential is obtained in closed form. On the first step, we analyze the singular structure of the non-linear response function as given by the…
Acoustic fields effect steady transport of suspended particles by rectifying the inertia of primary oscillations. We develop a fully analytic theory that relates this steady particle motion to incident oscillatory (acoustic) flow and the…
