Asymptotic solutions to a class of nonlinear oscillation systems

In this paper, we present an asymptotic method for the analysis of a class of strongly nonlinear oscillators, derive second-order approximate solutions to them expressed in terms of their amplitudes and phases, and obtain the equations governing the amplitudes and phases, by which the amplitudes of the corresponding limit cycles and their behaviour can be determined. As an example, we investigate the modified van der Pol oscillator and give the second-order approximate analytical solution of its limit cycle. The comparison with the numerical solutions shows that the two results agree well with each other.

The asymptotic near-tip solution for mode-iii crack in steady growth in power hardening media

Two local solutions, one perpendicular and one parallel to the direction of solar gravitational field, are discussed. The influence of gravity on the gas-dynamical process driven by the piston is discussed in terms of characteristic theory, and the flow field is given quantitatively. For a typical piston trajectory similar to the one for an eruptive prominence, the velocity of the shock front which locates ahead the transient front is nearly constant or slightly accelerated, and the width of the compressed flow region may be kept nearly constant or increased linearly, depending on the velocity distribution of the piston. Based on these results, the major features of the transient may be explained. Some of the fine structure of the transient is also shown, which may be compared in detail with observations.

On the non-linear stability theory of spinning solid bodies with liquid-filled cavities and its application to the columbus problem

In this paper, we first present a system of differential-integral equations for the largedisturbance to the general case that any arbitrarily shaped solid body with a cavity contain-ing viscous liquid rotates uniformly around the principal axis of inertia, and then develop aweakly non-linear stability theory by the Lyapunov direct approach. Applying this theoryto the Columbus problem, we have proved the consistency between the theory and Kelvin'sexperiments.

Evaluación del rendimiento pesquero potencial de la República Argentina: III. Edad y crecimiento de peces 1

Age and growth of populations of three fish species from sixteen lakes and reservoirs situated in the Patagonian Andean and the Patagonian Plateau Region (Argentina) were studied. They included two native species, the Patagonian smallmouth perch. (Percichthys trucha) and the Patagonian silverside (Patagonina hatcheri) and the introduced rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). For the three species backcalculated lenght at age was obtained from scale readings. Von Bertalanffy growth curves were usually adjusted to data. For the three species, faster growth was related with lake productivity. (Document contains 38 pages.)

遥感-岩石力学(III)——交汇断层粘滑的热红外辐射与声发射规律及其构造地震前兆意义

以构造地震孕震机制之三即交汇断层粘滑发震为模拟对象,利用双轴加载实验系统和红外热像仪对自然界经常出现的断层组合模式——不同交汇角度的组合断层的物理模型进行了室内加载实验,利用红外热像仪和声发射仪分别测定了加载过程中试样表面的红外辐射及断层活动的声发射时间序列。结果表明:(1) 声发射及红外辐射的时间序列特征受加载过程中试样的力学行为所控制,并表现出阶段性变化特点;(2) 声发射与红外辐射特征与断层几何结构有密切关系,当主应力与主断层成45°角时,红外辐射异常区主要沿主断层发育;(3) 垂直交汇的断层与斜交断层的声发射及红外辐射特征有明显差异,交汇角度(1°～90°)越大,交汇点处的红外辐射异常越明显。

As Bucólicas são constituídas de dez éclogas, consideradas como traduzidas ou imitadas de Teócrito. As Geórgias são um poema didático no qual se acentua a predileção de Virgílio pela vida campestre. A Eneida é uma utopia política que o poeta não conseguiu acabar e foi publicada contra a sua vontade expressa.

Chronica do serenissimo Principe D. João escrita por Damião de Goes, Dirigida ao Munto Magnanimo e Poderoso Rei D. João III do Nome

Damião de Góis, historiador e humanista português, nasceu em Alenquer, por volta de 1502 e morreu, provavelmente, em 1574. Na Corte, esteve a serviço dos reis D. Manuel e D. João III, desde a adolescência. Viajou por vários países por mais de vinte anos, o que lhe permitiu relacionar-se com Luter, Melanchthon, Luís Vives, Alberto Dürer e com Erasmo de Roterdam. Tendo regressado a Portugal, assumiu o cargo de guarda-mor da Torre do Tombo, em 1548. Sua principal obra foi a Crônica do felicíssimo Rei D. Manuel, que teve o texto alterado por exigência do Santo Ofício. Traduziu o tratado De Senectude, de Cícero, intitulando-o de Livro da velhice. Damião de Góis foi seguidor da obra de Fernão Lopes e de Rui Pina e se tornou o principal representante do humanismo difundido por Erasmo. Chronica do Sereníssimo Príncipe D. João foi escrita por recomendação do Cardeal D. Henrique. Traz uma narrativa do fatos ocorridos no reinado de D. Afonso V desde o nascimento do seu filho e sucessor D. João, que se tornaria D. João II. As primeira e segunda edições foram publicadas, respectivamente, em 1567 e 1724, com o título Chronica do Príncipe Dom Joam. Esta terceira edição, de 1790, além da alteração no título, restitui a dedicatória do autor ao Rei D. João II, omitida na segunda edição.

Analysis of Behaviors of Shock Focusing in the Inner Cavities of Double Wedge and Cone

The mechanisms of shock focusing in inner cavities of double wedge and cone are compared with that of traditional curved-surface shock focusing. The results show that there are many high temperature regions just behind shock surface which appear in two place alternately, one is near the surface of wall and the other is near the centerline. Also, changes in temperature, pressure, energy and power of the high temperature regions were analyzed and the results show that energy and power per unit volume increase, but total energy and power in the high temperature regions decrease during the process of shock moving forward the apex of double wedge or cone.

Fixed Points of Closed and Compact Composite Sequences of Operators and Projectors in a Class of Banach Spaces

Some results on fixed points related to the contractive compositions of bounded operators in a class of complete metric spaces which can be also considered as Banach's spaces are discussed through the paper. The class of composite operators under study can include, in particular, sequences of projection operators under, in general, oblique projective operators. In this paper we are concerned with composite operators which include sequences of pairs of contractive operators involving, in general, oblique projection operators. The results are generalized to sequences of, in general, nonconstant bounded closed operators which can have bounded, closed, and compact limit operators, such that the relevant composite sequences are also compact operators. It is proven that in both cases, Banach contraction principle guarantees the existence of unique fixed points under contractive conditions.
