Although integrable Hamiltonian systems are non-generic (Robinson (13)) they have some importance in classical mechanics, e.g. the two-body problem, a free rigid body not subject to a gravitational field, the Toda lattice (Moser(12)). Arnol'd (cf. (2) and (1), appendix 26) proved that under quite general conditions action-angle coordinates can be introduced. Accordingly we consider a fixed system with n degrees of freedom in the standard formwhere H0 is a smooth function of the action variables Li only and I ∈ I and I is an open set of n-tuples of positive reals. now subjected to a periodic impressed force, the resulting system, , being determined by a small, periodic perturbation of the energy functionwhere e is a small positive real and K(c, I; α0, α1, …, an) is a smooth function of parameters c ranging over a smooth r-manifold E, I ∈ I, and K has period 2π in each of the angles αi, i.e. (α0, …, αn) ∈ Tn (n-torus). The purpose of this paper is to define the forms of bifurcation of oscillations of the perturbed system (K):

As is well known, there is an intimate connection between geodesic flows and Hamiltonian systems. In fact, if g is a Riemannian, or pseudo-Riemannian metric on a manifold M (we think of M as q-space or the configuration space), we may define a smooth function Tg on the cotangent bundle T*M (q-p-space, or the phase space). This function is the kinetic energy of q, and locally is given by

Inertial Body

This is a report on a dynamic autonomous magnetic interaction which does not depend on polarities resulting in short ranged repulsion involving one or more inertial bodies and a new class of bound state based on this interaction. Both effects are new to the literature, found so far. Experimental results are generalized and reported qualitatively. Working principles of these effects are provided within classical mechanics and found consistent with observations and simulations. The effects are based on the interaction of a rigid and finite inertial body (an object having mass and moment of inertia) endowed with a magnetic moment with a cyclic inhomogeneous magnetic field which does not require to have a local minimum. Such a body having some degrees of freedom involved in driven harmonic motion by this interaction can experience a net force in the direction of the weak field regardless of its position and orientation or can find stable equilibrium with the field itself autonomously. The former is called polarity free magnetic repulsion and the latter is classified as a magnetic bound state. Experiments show that a bound state can be obtained between two free bodies having magnetic dipole moment as a solution of two-body problem. Various schemes of trapping bodies having magnetic moments by rotating fields are realized as well as rotating bodies trapped by a static dipole field in presence of gravity. Additionally, a special case of bound state called bipolar bound state between free dipole bodies is investigated.

AbstractA central problem motivated by Diophantine approximation is to determine the size properties of subsets of$\R^d$ ($d\in\N$)of the formwhere ‖⋅‖ denotes an arbitrary norm,Ia denumerable set, (xi,ri)i∈ Ia family of elements of$\R^d\$× (0, ∞) and ϕ a nonnegative nondecreasing function defined on [0, ∞). We show that ifFId, where Id denotes the identity function, has full Lebesgue measure in a given nonempty open subsetVof$\R^d\$, the setFϕbelongs to a class Gh(V) of sets with large intersection inVwith respect to a given gauge functionh. We establish that this class is closed under countable intersections and that each of its members has infinite Hausdorffg-measure for every gauge functiongwhich increases faster thanhnear zero. In particular, this yields a sufficient condition on a gauge functiongsuch that a given countable intersection of sets of the formFϕhas infinite Hausdorffg-measure. In addition, we supply several applications of our results to Diophantine approximation. For any nonincreasing sequenceψof positive real numbers converging to zero, we investigate the size and large intersection properties of the sets of all points that areψ-approximable by rationals, by rationals with restricted numerator and denominator and by real algebraic numbers. This enables us to refine the analogs of Jarník's theorem for these sets. We also study the approximation of zero by values of integer polynomials and deduce several new results concerning Mahler's and Koksma's classifications of real transcendental numbers.

A new pH water to pH CaCl2 calibration curve was derived from data pooled from 2 National Land and Water Resources Audit projects. A total of 70465 observations with both pH in water and pH in CaCl2 were available for statistical analysis. An additive model for pH in CaCl2 was fitted from a smooth function of pH in water created by a smoothing spline with 6 degrees of freedom. This model appeared stable outside the range of the data and performed well (R2 = 96.2, s = 0.24). The additive model for conversion of pHw to pHCa is sigmoidal over the range of pH 2.5 to 10.5 and is similar in shape to earlier models. Using this new model, a look-up table for converting pHw to pHCa was created.

The aim of this work is to apply classical mechanics to a description of the dynamic state of C20@C80 diamond complex. Endohedral rotations of fullerenes are of great interest due to the ability of the materials created on the basis of onion complexes to accumulate energy at rotational degrees of freedom. For such systems, a concept of temperature is not specified. In this paper, a closed description of the rotation of large molecules arranged in diamond shells is obtained in the framework of the classical approach. This description is used for C20@C80 diamond complex. Two different problems of molecular dynamics, distinguished by a fixing method for an outer shell of the considered bimolecular complex, are solved. In all the cases, the fullerene rotation frequency is calculated. Since a class of possible motions for a single carbon body (molecule) consists of rotations and translational displacements, the paper presents the equations determining each of these groups of motions. Dynamic equations for rotational motions of molecules are obtained employing the moment of momentum theorem for relative motions of the system near the fullerenes’ centers of mass. These equations specify the operation of the complex as a molecular pendulum. The equations of motion of the fullerenes’ centers of mass determine vibrations in the system, i.e. the operation of the complex as a molecular oscillator.

Abstract In this paper an investigation is made of equations governing the oscillations of a nonlinear system in two degrees of freedom. Analyses of harmonic oscillations are illustrated for the cases of (1) the forced oscillations with nonlinear restoring force, damping neglected; (2) the free oscillations with nonlinear restoring force, damping neglected; and (3) the forced oscillations with nonlinear restoring force, small viscous damping considered. Amplitudes of oscillations and frequency equations are derived based on the mathematically justified perturbation method. Response curves are then plotted.

The purpose of this chapter is to recall the principles of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian classical mechanics. Many results are presented without detailed proofs. We obtain the Euler–Lagrange equations of motion, and show the equivalence with Hamilton’s equations. We derive Noether’s theorem and show the connection between symmetries and conservation laws. These principles are extended to a system with an infinite number of degrees of freedom, i.e. a classical field theory. The invariance under a Lie group of transformations implies the existence of conserved currents. The corresponding charges generate, through the Poisson brackets, the infinitesimal transformations of the fields as well as the Lie algebra of the group.

Algebraic Operators

In the previous chapter we discussed the usual realization of many-body quantum mechanics in terms of differential operators (Schrödinger picture). As in the case of the two-body problem, it is possible to formulate many-body quantum mechanics in terms of algebraic operators. This is done by introducing, for each coordinate r1,r2,... and momentum p1, p2, . . . , boson creation and annihilation operators, b†iα, biα. The index i runs over the number of relevant degrees of freedom, while the index α runs from 1 to n + 1, where n is the number of space dimensions (see note 3 of Chapter 2). The boson operators satisfy the usual commutation relations, which are for i ≠ j, . . . [biα, b†jα´] = 0, [biα, bjα´] = 0,. . . . . .[bjα, b†iα´] = 0, [b†jα, b†iα´] = 0,. . . . . . [biα, b†iα´] = ẟαα´, [biα, b†iα´] = 0, [b†iα, b†iα´] = 0. . . .

This chapter addresses the free and forced oscillations of simple systems (with two or three degrees of freedom), the free oscillations of systems with the degenerate frequencies, and the eigen-oscillations of the electromechanical systems. This chapter also studies the oscillations of more complex systems using orthogonality of eigenoscillations and the symmetry properties of the system, the free oscillations of an anisotropic charged oscillator moving in a uniform constant magnetic field, and the perturbation theory adapted for the small oscillations. Finally, the chapter addresses oscillations of systems in which gyroscopic forces act and the eigen-oscillations of the simple molecules.
