The wave equation $u_{tt} = c^2 u_{xx}$ is generally regarded as a linear approximation to the equation describing the amplitude of a transversely vibrating elastic string in the plane. But, as is shown in \cite{BC96}, the assumption of transverse vibration in fact implies that the wave equation describes the vibration…

Vortex induced vibrations of bluff bodies occur when the vortex shedding frequency is close to the natural frequency of the structure.

We study a quantum system in a Riemannian manifold M on which a Lie group G acts isometrically. The path integral on M is decomposed into a family of path integrals on a quotient space Q=M/G and the reduced path integrals are completely classified by irreducible unitary representations of G. It is not necessary to assu…

Slender marine structures such as deep-water marine risers are subjected to currents and will normally experience Vortex Induced Vibrations (VIV), which can cause fast accumulation of fatigue damage. The ocean current is often three-dimensional (3D), i.e., the direction and magnitude of the current vary throughout the …

In industrial applications, nearly half the failures of motors are caused by the degradation of rolling element bearings (REBs). Therefore, accurately estimating the remaining useful life (RUL) for REBs are of crucial importance to ensure the reliability and safety of mechanical systems. To tackle this challenge, model…

The high structural deficient rate poses serious risks to the operation of many bridges and buildings.

In structural health monitoring (SHM), many existing …

We study the distributions of event-time returns and clock-time returns at different microscopic timescales using ultra-high-frequency data extracted from the limit-order books of 23 stocks traded in the Chinese stock market in 2003. We find that the returns at the one-trade timescale obey the inverse cubic law. For la…

Condition monitoring is central to the efficient operation of wind farms due to the challenging operating conditions, rapid technology development and large number of aging wind turbines.

We uniquely and explicitly reconstruct the instantaneous intrinsic metric of the Kerr-Newman Event Horizon from the spectrum of its Laplacian.
