In this paper a general linear model for vibrating networks of one-dimensional elements is derived. This is applied to various situations including nonplanar networks of beams modelled by a three-dimensional variant on the Timoshenko beam, described for the first time in this paper. The existence and regularity of solutions is established for all the networks under consideration. The methods of first-order hyperbolic systems are used to obtain estimates from which exact controllability follows for networks containing no closed loops.

A simplified analytical form of the on-axis magnetic well and Mercier's criterion for interchange instabilities for arbitrary three-dimensional magnetic field geometries is derived. For this purpose, a near-axis expansion based on a direct coordinate approach is used by expressing the toroidal magnetic flux in terms of powers of the radial distance to the magnetic axis. For the first time, the magnetic well and Mercier's criterion are then written as a one-dimensional integral with respect to the axis arclength. When compared with the original work of Mercier, the derivation here is presented using modern notation and in a more streamlined manner that highlights essential steps. Finally, these expressions are verified numerically using several quasisymmetric and non-quasisymmetric stellarator configurations including Wendelstein 7-X.

Abstract Some structural properties as well as a general three-dimensional boundary value problem for normally hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations of first order are studied. A condition is given which enables one to reduce the system under consideration to a first-order system with the spliced principal part. It is shown that the initial problem is correct in a certain class of functions if some conditions are fulfilled.

The goal of this article is to present the minimal time needed for the null controllability and finite-time stabilization of one-dimensional first-order 2×2 linear hyperbolic systems. The main technical point is to show that we cannot obtain a better time. The proof combines the backstepping method with the Titchmarsh convolution theorem.

Abstract Single crystals of synthetic francoanellite K3Al5(HPO4)6(PO4)2-12H2O could be obtained for the first time by topochemical dehydration of taranakite crystals. An X-ray structure determination showed francoanellite to be the mineral with the second longest crystallographic axis described hitherto. Crystal data: space group R3c, a = 869.0(2), c = 8227(1)pm, Z = 6 , Rg = 0.042. Francoanellite is a layer structure mineral having six layers of composition [K3Al5(HPO4)6(PO4)2(H2O)12], connected by hydrogen bonds. The rigid layer is formed by columns of corner sharing hydrogen phosphate tetrahedra and AIO6-octahedra which are inter­ connected by additional six-coordinated Al ions. In trigonal holes of the layer orthophosphate ions are situated. The structure of francoanellite is very similar to the structure of taranakite K3H6Al5(PO4) 8 · 18H2O which has planar water interlayers between the Al-phosphate layers. A neutron scattering experiment with subsequent Rietveld refinement of the powder pattern gave the H-atom positions. Hydrogen bonds in francoanellite are formed within the rigid layers and between them.During the reaction taranakite → francoanellite crystals in an intermediate stage of dehydration could be obtained. From the c-axis of 8858 pm and one-dimensional electron density projections it can be proposed that in these crystals every second water interlayer was lost and a first order staging product of the deintercalation of water from taranakite was formed.

The title compound, also known as intricatinol, C17H14O5, is a homoisoflavanoid that was isolated for the first time from the twigs and stems of Caesalpinia digyna Rottler. The pyran ring is in an envelope form. O—H...O intramolecular hydrogen bonds are observed. Symmetry-related molecules are linked via O—H...O intermolecular interactions to form infinite one-dimensional chains. These chains are interconnected to form a three-dimensional molecular network.
