Analysis of blocking phenomena in bifurcated channels found in mountainous rivers
The paper presents an analysis of blocking phenomena in bifurcated channels found in mountain rivers. A change of channels may be caused by deposition of sediments which blocks the entrance...
Direct Tensile Test: Stability and Bifurcation
Unnotched specimens of quasibrittle materials that exhibit post-peak strain softening do not deform symmetrically in a direct tension test. The phenomenon (which is similar to the recently...
The Initiation of Bifurcations and Localization in Damaging Materials
Criteria for diffuse and discontinuous bifurcations have previously been developed and used to investigate the initiation of necking and localization in elastic-plastic materials. In this...
Bifurcations and Chaos in Structural Control
We study a harmonically forced oscillator with nonlinear soft spring subjected to a linear feedback control with time delay. This system can be written as a three dimensional dynamical...
Flow in a Model Symmetric Bifurcation
Flow through bifurcations is of particular interst to the field of hemodynamics and respiration dynamics. In this paper flow through a model symmetric bifurcation is studied experimentally...
Fluid Dynamics at the Carotid Bifurcation
Arterial wall distensibility is believed to be of secondary importance to the general flowfield of the human carotid artery. However, it has been reported that it may have greater influence...
A Computer Simulation of the Blood Flow at the Aortic Bifurcation with Flexible Walls
To understand the possible role of hemodynamics in the atherogenesis, especially the effect of the flexibility of the arteries, a two-dimensional numerical model for the blood flow at...
Shear Band Initiation and Evolution in Frictional Materials
Bifurcations in Stochastic Systems?A Generalized Hermite Analysis
Ito calculus and Markov theory are powerful tools to investigate nonlinear dynamic systems. Consequently, we need an extended experience to solve Fokker-Planck equations. In a more recent...
Why Bifurcation: A Study of a Reticulated Dome
Numerical results for a hexagonal lattice dome subjected to uniform gravity loading are presented. We demonstrate that a perfect nonlinear bifurcation analysis plays a crucial role in...
