We present a phenomenological Lagrangian and Poisson brackets for obtaining nondissipative hydrodynamic theory of supersolids. A Lagrangian is constructed on the basis of unification of the principles of non-equilibrium thermodynamics and…
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…
In recent work, it was shown that elasticity theory can break down in amorphous solids subjected to nonuniform {\em static} loads. The elastic fields are screened by geometric dipoles; these stem from gradients of the quadrupole field…
The identity of classical motion is established for two physically different models, one of which is the relativistic particle with torsion, whose action contains higher derivatives and which is the effective system for the statistically…
We show that the locally constant force necessary to get a stable hyperbolic motion regime for classical charged point particles, actually, is a combination of an applied external force and of the electromagnetic radiation reaction force.…
Budiansky's nonlinear shell theory is particularized to a 2D setting, and thereupon generalized to a fully nonlinear, statically and kinematically exact, theory of strain-gradient elasticity of beams. The governing equations are displayed…
Selected results of a classical simulation of N bodies in strong interaction are presented. The static properties of such classical systems are qualitatively similar to the known properties of atomic nuclei. The simulations of collisions…
Elastic constants are among the most fundamental and important properties of solid materials, which is why they are routinely characterized in both experiments and simulations. While conceptually simple, the treatment of elastic constants…
We provide the classical mechanics of many particles moving in canonically twist-deformed space-time. In particular, we consider two examples of such noncommutative systems - the set of N particles moving in gravitational field as well as…
We present a dynamical theory of a two-dimensional martensitic transition in an elastic solid, connecting a high-temperature phase which is nondegenerate and has triangular symmetry, and a low-temperature phase which is triply degenerate…
The possibility is discussed of inferring or simulating some aspects of quantum dynamics by adding classical statistical fluctuations to classical mechanics. We introduce a general principle of mechanical stability and derive a necessary…
Consider the flow of a thin layer of non-Newtonian fluid over a solid surface. I model the case of a viscosity that depends nonlinearly on the shear-rate; power law fluids are an important example, but the analysis here is for general…
Using very general and well established ideas of the statistical physics of macroscopic bodies, that is, of those composed of many degrees of freedom, we show how classical behavior of the center of mass motion arises from a fully quantum…
Classical statistical particle mechanics in the configuration space can be represented by a nonlinear Schrodinger equation. Even without assuming the existence of deterministic particle trajectories, the resulting quantum-like statistical…
Dynamic perturbation equations are derived for a generic stationary state of an elastic string model -- of the kind appropriate for representing a superconducting cosmic string -- in a flat background. In the case of a circular equilibrium…
We consider classical dynamics of a 1D system of $N$ particles bouncing on an oscillating mirror in the presence of gravitational field. The particles behave like hard balls and they are resonantly driven by the mirror. We identify the…
We consider a suspension of non-interacting flat elastic particles in a Newtonian fluid. We model a flat shape as three beads, carried along by the flow according to Stokes' law, and connected by nonlinear springs, chosen such that the…
A simple model for solid friction is analyzed. It is based on tangential springs representing interlocked asperities of the surfaces in contact. Each spring is given a maximal strain according to a probability distribution. At their maximal…
A novel theory of the structure of elementary particles is outlined. The proposed relativistic covariant space-time approach supposes that all massive particles are composite particles formed by massless elementary particles with opposite…
We study the most general form of a three dimensional classical integrable system with axial symmetry and invariant under the axis reflection. We assume that the three constants of motion are the Hamiltonian, $H$, with the standard form of…
