This study considers the stability of a non-inflectional elastica under a conservative end force subject to the Dirichlet, mixed, and Neumann boundary conditions. It is demonstrated that the non-inflectional elastica subject to the…
We consider free electrons in rectangular quantum dots, with either hard wall boundary conditions or anharmonic confinement. In both cases, due to finite size effects, a homogeneous electric field applied along one of the rectangular axis…
We derive modified reflection coefficients for electromagnetic waves in the THz and far infrared range. The idea is based on hydrodynamic boundary conditions for metallic conduction electrons. The temperature-dependent part of the Casimir…
We study boundary integral formulations for an interior/exterior initial boundary value problem arising from the thermo-elasto-dynamic equations in a homogeneous and isotropic domain. The time dependence is handled, based on Lubich's…
Consider a bounded domain with the Dirichlet condition on a part of the boundary and the Neumann condition on its complement. Does the spectrum of the Laplacian determine uniquely which condition is imposed on which part? We present some…
Schr\"odinger equation for an electron confined to a two-dimensional strip is considered in the presence of homogeneous orthogonal magnetic field. Since the system has edges, the eigenvalue problem is supplied by the boundary conditions…
