We propose a novel approach to the generation of electromagnetic oscillations by means of a low-frequency pumping of two coupled linear oscillators. A theory of such generation mechanism is proposed, and its feasibility is demonstrated by…
The reciprocal velocity force, $F(v)=\frac{C}{v}$, despite its theoretical and practical importance, is often neglected in mechanics courses. We use graphical methods to explain how such a force naturally arises from a device called a…
In a recent work, we proposed a hypothesis that the turbulence in gases could be produced by particles interacting via a potential - for example, the interatomic potential at short ranges, and the electrostatic potential at long ranges.…
Searches for un-modelled burst gravitational wave signals return potential candidates for short duration signals. As there is no clear model for the source in these searches, one needs to understand and reconstruct the system that produced…
