Modified reduced Ostrovsky equation: Integrability and breaking 27 Aug 2013 | 07:00 pm
Author(s): E. R. Johnson and R. H. J. Grimshaw The modified reduced Ostrovsky equation is a reduction of the modified Korteweg–de Vries equation, in which the usual linear dispersive term with a thir...
Oscillatory athermal quasistatic deformation of a model glass 26 Aug 2013 | 07:00 pm
Author(s): Davide Fiocco, Giuseppe Foffi, and Srikanth Sastry We report computer simulations of oscillatory athermal quasistatic shear deformation of dense amorphous samples of a three-dimensional mo...
Spatially modulated kinks in shallow granular layers 19 Aug 2013 | 07:00 pm
Author(s): J. E. Macías, M. G. Clerc, C. Falcón, and M. A. García-Ñustes We report on the experimental observation of spatially modulated kinks in a shallow one-dimensional fluidized granular layer s...
Rotation-induced grain growth and stagnation in phase-field crystal models 15 Aug 2013 | 07:00 pm
Author(s): Mathias Bjerre, Jens M. Tarp, Luiza Angheluta, and Joachim Mathiesen We consider grain growth and stagnation in polycrystalline microstructures. From the phase-field crystal modeling of th...
Temporal decorrelations in compressible isotropic turbulence 14 Aug 2013 | 07:00 pm
Author(s): Dong Li, Xing Zhang, and Guowei He Temporal decorrelations in compressible isotropic turbulence are studied using the space-time correlation theory and direct numerical simulation. A swept...

Author(s): Antônio Márcio P. Silva, Adriaan M. J. Schakel, and Giovani L. Vasconcelos An efficient algorithm is presented to simulate the O(N) loop model on the square lattice for arbitrary values of...
Dynamic equilibrium explanation for nanobubbles' unusual temperature and saturation dependence 30 Jul 2013 | 07:00 pm
Author(s): Nikolai D. Petsev, M. Scott Shell, and L. Gary Leal The dynamic equilibrium model suggests that surface nanobubbles can be stable due to an influx of gas in the vicinity of the bubble cont...
