From a thin membrane to an unbounded solid : dynamics and instabilities in radial motion of nonlinearly viscoelastic spheres
… a theoretical investigation of the dynamic motion of spherically symmetric bodies is presented, considering nonlinear viscoelastic material responses. To explore the stability thresholds of the dynamic motion and to compare them with available formula for the quasi-static limit, the present …

Velocity compensation in stepped frequency rada
… sampling rate. However, the relative radial motion between the target and the stepped-frequency radar will result in performance degradations, such as range error, loss in signal-to-noise ratio, and degraded range resolution. The solution to this problem is to apply velocity …

A Computational Framework for Dimensionally Reduced Particle Dynamics in Magnetic Nozzle Fields: An Adiabatic Invariant Approach
… invariant J, which characterizes periodic radial motion. The validity of this dimensional reduction is evaluated using the adiabaticity parameter η, which quantifies how slowly the system parameters vary compared to the oscillation timescale. Specifically, η is defined as the normalized …

The Functional Dissection of Motion Processing Pathways in the Human Visual Cortex Using fMRI-Guided TMS
Motion-selectivity in human visual cortex comprises a number of different cortical loci including V1, V2, V3A, V3B, hV5/MT+ and V6 (Wandell et al., 2007). This thesis sought to investigate the specific functions of V3A and sub-divisions of hV5/MT+ (TO-1 and TO-2) by using transcranial magnetic …

Generation and Langmuir probe analysis of a DC glow discharge and the deposition of chromium from a carbonyl precursor
… regime neither followed the orbital nor radial motion theories investigated. However, the electron current did follow the orbital motion theory and it is demonstrated that the densities obtained from the ion currents, using these theories, were incorrect. This had been previously shown to …

Wave propagation in pipes of slowly-varying radius with compressible flow
… which is added to the equation governing the radial shell displacements since the pressure is assumed to affect radial motion only. Once the newly corrected equation for the radial shell displacements has been obtained, together with the axial and azimuthal displacements equations, this new …
