We study the quantum stability of the dynamics of ions in a Paul trap. We revisit the results of Wang et al. [Phys. Rev. A 52, 1419 (1995)], which showed that quantum trajectories did not have the same region of stability as their classical…
Power systems with a high penetration of renewable generation are vulnerable to frequency oscillation and voltage instability. Traditionally, the stability of power systems is considered either in terms of local stability or as an angle…
Galaxy modelling is greatly simplified by assuming the existence of a global system of angle-action coordinates. Unfortunately, global angle-action coordinates do not exist because some orbits become trapped by resonances, especially where…

When a mobile manipulator's wheel loses contact with the ground, tipping-over may occur, causing material damage, and in the worst case, it can put human lives in danger. The tip-over stability of wheeled mobile manipulators must not be…
When it comes to active particles, even an ideal-gas model in a harmonic potential poses a mathematical challenge. An exception is a run-and-tumble model (RTP) in one-dimension for which a stationary distribution is known exactly. The case…
The $\mathbf{k \cdot p}$ method is a successful approach to obtain band structure, optical and transport properties of semiconductors, and it depends on external parameters that are obtained either from experiments, tight binding or ab…
This paper presents the stability analysis of a system composed of rotating beams on a flexible, circular fixed ring, using the Routh-Hurwitz criterion. The model displayed has been fully developed within the rotating frame by use of an…
We study the stability and bifurcation of relative equilibria of a particle on the Lie group $SO(3)$ whose motion is governed by an $SO(3)\times SO(2)$ invariant metric and an $SO(2)\times SO(2)$ invariant potential. Our method is to reduce…
We determine the response of a uniformly rotating star to tidal perturbations due to a companion. General periodic orbits and parabolic flybys are considered. We evaluate energy and angular momentum exchange rates as a sum of contributions…

Jumping take-off in birds is an explosive behaviour with the goal of providing a rapid transition from ground to airborne locomotion. An effective jump is predicated on the need to maintain dynamic stability through the acceleration phase.…
