We consider a thermoelastic theory where the heat conduction is described by the Moore–Gibson–Thompson equation. In fact, this equation can be obtained after the introduction of a relaxation parameter in the Green–Naghdi type III model. We analyse the one- and three-dimensional cases. In three dimensions, we obtain the well-posedness and the stability of solutions. In one dimension, we obtain the exponential decay and the instability of the solutions depending on the conditions over the system of constitutive parameters. We also propose possible extensions for these theories.

Numerical simulations of the evolution of gravity wave spectra of fairly narrow bandwidth have been performed both for two and three dimensions. Simulations using the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation approximately verify the stability criteria of Alber (1978) in the two-dimensional but not in the three-dimensional case. Using a modified NLS equation (Trulsen et al. 2000) the spectra ‘relax’ towards a quasi-stationary state on a timescale (ε2ω0)−1. In this state the low-frequency face is steepened and the spectral peak is downshifted. The three-dimensional simulations show a power-law behaviour ω−4 on the high-frequency side of the (angularly integrated) spectrum.

Abstract The spatial positions of individual aerosol particles, cloud droplets, or raindrops can be modeled as a point processes in three dimensions. Characterization of three-dimensional point processes often involves the calculation or estimation of the radial distribution function (RDF) and/or the pair-correlation function (PCF) for the system. Sampling these three-dimensional systems is often impractical, however, and, consequently, these three-dimensional systems are directly measured by probing the system along a one-dimensional transect through the volume (e.g., an aircraft-mounted cloud probe measuring a thin horizontal “skewer” through a cloud). The measured RDF and PCF of these one-dimensional transects are related to (but not, in general, equal to) the RDF/PCF of the intrinsic three-dimensional systems from which the sample was taken. Previous work examined the formal mathematical relationship between the statistics of the intrinsic three-dimensional system and the one-dimensional transect; this study extends the previous work within the context of realistic sampling variability. Natural sampling variability is found to constrain substantially the usefulness of applying previous theoretical relationships. Implications for future sampling strategies are discussed.

This study was designed to reassess and reconceptualize the multidimensional nature of organizational commitment. The Organizational Commitment Questionnaire of Porter, Steers, Mowday, and Boulian was administered to 259 employees representing five retail banks. Factor analysis (principal factor, promax rotation) yielded the three dimensions proposed by Porter, et al. in 1974. This conceptualization was inadequate because one dimension, i.e., desire to maintain organizational membership, overlaps the withdrawal construct. A similar criticism has been levelled against Meyer and Allen's 1991 model. Consistent with the three-dimensional attitude theory, organizational commitment was reconceptualized in terms of cognitive, emotive, and conative meanings. The proposed dimensions include normative commitment (amount of cognitive consonance with organizational norms), affective commitment (intensity of emotional attachment to the organization), and volitive commitment (extent of conative orientation towards organizational goals).

We prove shock formation results for the compressible Euler equations and related systems of conservation laws in one space dimension, or three dimensions with spherical symmetry. We establish an L∞ bound for C1 solutions of the one-dimensional (1D) Euler equations, and use this to improve recent shock formation results of the authors. We prove analogous shock formation results for 1D magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) with orthogonal magnetic field, and for compressible flow in a variable area duct, which has as a special case spherically symmetric three-dimensional (3D) flow on the exterior of a ball.

In this paper, we provide a partition of the roots of a class of transcendental equation by using τ-D decomposition ,where τ>0,a>0,b<0 and the coefficient b is fixed.According to the partition, one can determine the stability domain of the equilibrium and get a Hopf bifurcation diagram that can provide the Hopf bifurcation curves in the-parameter space, for one dimension delay differential equation .

AbstractThe dynamics of solitary gravity–capillary water waves propagating on the surface of a three-dimensional fluid domain is studied numerically. In order to accurately compute complex time-dependent solutions, we simplify the full potential flow problem by using surface variables and taking a particular cubic truncation possessing a Hamiltonian with desirable properties. This approximation agrees remarkably well with the full equations for the bifurcation curves, wave profiles and the dynamics of solitary waves for a two-dimensional fluid domain, and with higher-order truncations in three dimensions. Fully localized solitary waves are then computed in the three-dimensional problem and the stability and interaction of both line and localized solitary waves are investigated via numerical time integration of the equations. There are many solitary wave branches, indexed by their finite energy as their amplitude tends to zero. The dynamics of the solitary waves is complex, involving nonlinear focusing of wavepackets, quasi-elastic collisions, and the generation of propagating, spatially localized, time-periodic structures akin to breathers.

The SLIP model has shown a way to easily represent the center of mass dynamics of human walking and running. For 2D motions in the sagittal plane, the model shows self-stabilizing effects that can be very useful when designing a humanoid robot. However, this self-stability could not be found in three-dimensional running, but simple control strategies achieved stabilization of running in three dimensions. Yet, 3D walking with SLIP has not been analyzed to the same extent. In this paper we show that three-dimensional humanoid SLIP walking is also unstable, but can be stabilized using the same strategy that has been successful for running. It is shown that this approach leads to the desired periodic solutions. Furthermore, the influence of different parameters on stability and robustness is examined. Using a performance test to simulate the transition from an upright position to periodic walking we show that the stability is robust. With a comparison of common models for humanoid walking and running it is shown that the simple control mechanism is able to achieve stable solutions for all models, providing a very general approach to this problem. The derived results point out preferable parameters to increase robustness promising the possibility of successfully realizing a humanoid walking robot based on 3D SLIP.

In this paper we consider the stability of one-dimensional stationary waves set up by two counter-streaming beams of electrons in a background of stationary ions. The perturbations considered are long-wave in a direction perpendicular to the wave. The presence of a uniform magnetic field in the direction of the wave and the effect of a perpendicular pressure are taken into account. In the long-wavelength limit growth rates are diminished by the nonlinear wave. When the amplitude of this wave tends to its maximum value, the growth rates tend to zero. Thus the wave has a stabilizing effect for long-wave perturbations. Three- dimensional effects lead to additional instabilities which are also quenched by the nonlinear wave, but not as fast as the one-dimensional calculation indicates.

The interpretation of low-strain integrity tests of piles is commonly based on methods developed around the one-dimensional wave propagation theory. In reality, waves resulting from the impact of a hammer on a pile head propagate in three dimensions, and the validity of the plane-front assumption is rather questionable for cases where the size of the hammer is small relative to that of the pile. This paper presents an analytical model of the dynamic response of a pile to an impact load on its head, considering propagation of waves in both vertical and radial directions. The proposed formulation applies to a pile of finite length embedded in multilayered elastic soil, and allows for considering both shape and material pile defects, by reducing locally the radius of the pile cross section or the Young’s modulus of its material. Arithmetic examples are used to depict the effect of high-frequency interferences on the interpretation of pile integrity tests, which can only be accounted for in the three-dimensional formulation of the problem, and lead to practical suggestions for the interpretation of such tests.

The one-dimensional problem of electron scattering by a standing light wave, known as the Kapitza–Dirac effect, is shown to be easily extendable to two and three dimensions, thus showing all characteristics of diffraction of electrons by simple two- and three-dimensional rectangular lattices.
