In general relativity, the values of constant terms in the equations of motions of planets and light have not been seriously discussed. Based on the Schwarzschild metric and the geodesic equations of the Riemann geometry, it is proved in this paper that the constant term in the time-dependent equation of motion of planet in general relativity must be equal to zero. Otherwise, when the correction term of general relativity is ignored, the resulting Newtonian gravity formula would change its basic form. Due to the absence of this constant term, the equation of motion cannot describe the elliptical and the hyperbolic orbital motions of celestial bodies in the solar gravitational field. It can only describe the parabolic orbital motion (with minor corrections). Therefore, it becomes meaningless to use general relativity calculating the precession of Mercury's perihelion. It is also proved that the time-dependent orbital equation of light in general relativity is contradictory to the time-independent equation of light. Using the time-independent orbital equation to do calculation, the deflection angle of light in the solar gravitational field is <mml:math display="inline"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>1.7</mml:mn> <mml:msup> <mml:mn>5</mml:mn> <mml:mo>″</mml:mo> </mml:msup> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> . But using the time-dependent equation to do calculation, the deflection angle of light is only a small correction of the prediction value <mml:math display="inline"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>0.87</mml:mn> <mml:msup> <mml:mn>5</mml:mn> <mml:mo>″</mml:mo> </mml:msup> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> of the Newtonian gravity theory with a magnitude order of <mml:math display="inline"> <mml:mrow> <mml:msup> <mml:mrow> <mml:mn>10</mml:mn> </mml:mrow> <mml:mrow> <mml:mo>−</mml:mo> <mml:mn>5</mml:mn> </mml:mrow> </mml:msup> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> . The reason causing this inconsistency was the Einstein's assumption that the motion of light satisfied the condition <mml:math display="inline"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>d</mml:mi> <mml:mi>s</mml:mi> <mml:mo>=</mml:mo> <mml:mn>0</mml:mn> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> in gravitational field. It leads to the absence of constant term in the time-independent equation of motion of light and destroys the uniqueness of geodesic in curved space-time. Meanwhile, light is subjected to repulsive forces in the gravitational field, rather than attractive forces. The direction of deflection of light is opposite, inconsistent with the predictions of present general relativity and the Newtonian theory of gravity. Observing on the earth surface, the wavelength of light emitted by the sun is violet shifted. This prediction is obviously not true. Practical observation is red shift. Finally, the practical significance of the calculation of the Mercury perihelion's precession and the existing problems of the light's deflection experiments of general relativity are briefly discussed. The conclusion of this paper is that general relativity cannot have consistence with the Newtonian theory of gravity for the descriptions of motions of planets and light in the solar system. The theory itself is not self-consistent too.

This contribution presents the results of a campaign of numerical simulations aimed at better understanding the propagation of longitudinal waves in pantographic beams within the large-deformation regime. Initially, we recall the key features of a Lagrangian discrete spring model, which was introduced in previous works and that was tested extensively as capable of accurately forecasting the mechanical response of structures based on the pantographic motif, both in statics and dynamics. Successively, a stepwise integration scheme used to solve equations of motions is briefly discussed. The key content of the present contribution concerns the thorough presentation of some selected numerical simulations, which focus in particular on the propagation of stretch profiles induced by impulsive loads. The study takes into account different tests, by varying the number of unit cells, i.e., the total length of the system, spring stiffnesses, the shape of the impulse, as well as its properties such as duration and peak amplitude, and boundary conditions. Some conjectures about the form of traveling waves are formulated, to be confirmed by both further numerical simulations and analytical investigations.

In this study, the coupled motion of a mooring system and multifloating cranes were analyzed. For the motion analysis, the combined equations of motions of the mooring line and multifloating cranes were introduced. The multibody equations for floating cranes were derived from the equations of motion. The finite element method (FEM) was used to derive equations to solve the stretchable catenary problem of the mooring line. To verify the function of mooring simulator, calculation results were compared with commercial mooring software. To validate the analysis results, we conducted an experimental test for offshore operation using two floating crane models scaled to 1:40. Two floating crane models and a pile model were established for operation of uprighting flare towers. During the model test, the motion of the floating cranes and tensions of the mooring lines were measured. Through the model test, the accuracy of the mooring analysis program developed in this study was verified. Therefore, if this mooring analysis program is used, it will be possible to perform a mooring analysis simulation at the same time as a maritime work simulation.

Abstract Assemblies of self-rotating particles are gaining interest as a novel realization of active matter with unique collective behaviors such as edge currents and non-trivial dynamic states. Here, we develop a continuum model derived from coarse-grained equations of motions for a system of discrete spinners. We apply the model to explore the mixtures of spinners and same-spin phase separation. We find that the dynamics is strikingly sensitive to fluid inertia: In the inertialess system, after transient turbulent-like motion the spinners segregate and form steady traffic lanes. Contrary, at small but finite Reynolds number, the turbulent-like motion is sustained and the spinner population exhibit a chirality breaking transition: only population with a certain sense of rotation survives. The results shed light on the dynamic behavior of non-equilibrium materials exemplified by active spinners.

Abstract Objective of this work is to study whether some of the known non-gravitational phenomena can be explained as motion on a straight line as gravity is treated within General Relativity. To do that, we explore a metric field on a complexified manifold with holomorphic coordinates. Specifically we look into the behaviour of geodesics on such a smooth complex manifold and the path traced out by its real component. This yields a family of equations of motions in real coordinates which is shown to have deviations from usual geodesic equation and in that way expands the geodesic to capture contributions from additional fields and interactions beyond the mere gravitational ones as a function of the metric field.

This article discusses about vibration analysis of single-/three-layered microsandwich Timoshenko beams with porous core and graphene platelet–reinforced composite face sheets under magnetic field and elastic foundation based on the modified strain gradient theory. It is assumed that the material properties of matrix and reinforcement vary in thickness directions. Hamilton’s principle based on the energy approach is used to obtain the governing equations of motions. The equations of motions are solved using a numerical differential quadrature method for various boundary conditions. The obtained results of this study are compared with other previous research studies, and there is a good agreement between them. Moreover, the effects of different parameters such as length-to-thickness ratio, magnetic field, various distributions of graphene platelets and porous beams, and volume fractions of graphene platelets are studied on the dimensionless natural frequencies. In fact, the main idea of this work is combination of structure reinforcement with magnetic field and graphene platelets on the sandwich porous beams at microscale, and the effects of these parameters are developed on the dimensionless natural frequencies of the microbeam. The results of the present study demonstrate that applying magnetic field and increasing its intensity lead to enhance the natural frequency. Also, it is showed that graphene platelet reinforcement with one percent of weight fraction has an effective effect on the increasing dimensionless natural frequencies of the microporous beam. Thus, it can be predicted that graphene platelets can be used instead of nanotubes because they do not have the problem of nanotube accumulation and they are more economical than nanotubes.

If the potential energy is independent of time, the energy of the system remains constant during the motion of a closed system. A system with one degree of freedom allows for the determination of the law of motion in quadrature. In this chapter, the authors consider motion of the particles in the one-dimensional fields. They discuss also how the law and the period of a particle moving in the potential field change due to adding to the given field a small correction.

A geometrical construction for a global dynamical time for binary point-like particle systems, modeled by relativistic equations of motions, is presented. Thus, we provide a convenient tool for the calculation of the dynamics of recent models for the dynamics of black holes that use individual proper times. The construction is naturally based on the local Lorentzian geometry of the spacetime considered. Although in this presentation we are dealing with the Minkowskian spacetime, the construction is useful for gravitational models that have as a seed Minkowski spacetime. We present the discussion for a binary system, but the construction is obviously generalizable to multiple particle systems. The calculations are organized in terms of the order of the corresponding relativistic forces. In particular, we improve on the Darwin and Landau–Lifshitz approaches, for the case of electromagnetic systems. We discuss the possibility of a Lagrangian treatment of the retarded effects, depending on the nature of the relativistic forces. The higher-order contractions are based on a Runge–Kutta type procedure, which is used to calculate the quantities at the required retarded time, by increasing evaluations of the forces at intermediate times. We emphasize the difference between approximation orders in field equations and approximation orders in retarded effects in the equations of motion. We show this difference by applying our construction to the binary electromagnetic case.

Focus of this study is to explore some aspects of mathematical foundations for using complex manifolds as a model for space-time. More specifically, certain equations of motions have been derived as a Projective geodesic on a real manifold embedded within a complex one. To that goal, first the geodesic on complex manifold has been computed using local complex and conjugate coordinates, and then its projection on the real sub-manifold has been studied. The projective geodesic, thus obtained, is shown to have additional terms beyond the usual Christoffel symbols, and hence expands the geodesic to capture effects beyond the mere gravitational ones.

In this article will be considered many spherical bodies problem with variable masses, varying non-isotropic at different rates as celestial-mechanical model of non-stationary planetary systems. In this article were obtained differential equations of motions of spherical bodies with variable masses to reach purpose exploration of evolution planetary systems. The scientific importance of the work is exploration to the effects of masses’ variability of the dynamic evolution of the planetary system for a long period of time. According to equation of Mescherskiy, we obtained differential equations of motions of planetary systems in the absolute coordinates system and the relative coordinates system. On the basis of obtained differential equations in the relative coordinates system, we derived equations of motions in osculating elements in form of Lagrange's equations and canonically equations in osculating analogs second systems of Poincare's elements on the base aperiodic motion over the quasi-canonical cross- section.
