AbstractAn alternative, scalar theory of gravitation has been proposed, based on a mechanism/interpretation of gravity as being a pressure force: Archimedes’ thrust. In it, the gravitational field affects the physical standards of space and time, but motion is governed by an extension of the relativistic form of Newton’s second law. This implies Einstein’s geodesic motion for free particles only in a constant gravitational field. In this work, equations governing the dynamics of a continuous medium subjected to gravitational and non-gravitational forces are derived. Then, the case where the non-gravitational force is the Lorentz force is investigated. The gravitational modification of Maxwell’s equations is obtained under the requirement that a charged continuous medium, subjected to the Lorentz force, obeys the equation derived for continuum dynamics under external forces. These Maxwell equations are shown to be consistent with the dynamics of a “free” photon, and thus with the geometrical optics of this theory. However, these equations do not imply local charge conservation, except for a constant gravitational field.

A nonlinear state-space dynamic model of a resonating single fiber scanner is developed to understand scan distortion—jump, whirl, amplitude dependent amplitude and phase shifts—and as the basis for controllers to remove those distortions. The non-planar nonlinear continuum dynamics of a resonating base excited cantilever are reduced to a set of state-space coupled Duffing equations with centripetal acceleration. Methods for experimentally determining the model parameters are developed. The analytic frequency responses for raster, spiral and propeller scans are derived, and match experimental frequency responses for all three scan patterns, for various amplitudes, and using the same model parameters.

The development of high resolution, general purpose models of viscous, compressible flows is extremely difficult with existing system dynamics modeling tools. Published work admits to significant limitations, with regards to the treatment of flow geometry, inertia effects, or mass and energy convection. Combining a finite element discretization scheme with a bond graph based model formulation procedure provides a very general purpose tool for continuum fluid system modeling.
