New design of hingeless helicopter rotor improves stability
Cantilever blades are attached directly to rotor hub, thereby substantially reducing cost and complexity and increasing reliability of helicopter rotor. Combination of structural flap-lag coupling and pitch-lag coupling provides damping of 6 to 10%, depending on magnitude of coupling parameters
Slower Speed and Stronger Coupling: Adaptive Mechanisms of Self-Organized Chaos Synchronization
We show that two initially weakly coupled chaotic systems can achieve
self-organized synchronization by adaptively reducing their speed and/or
enhancing the coupling strength. Explicit adaptive algorithms for
speed-reduction and coupling-enhancement are provided. We apply these
algorithms to the self-organized synchronization of two coupled Lorenz systems.
It is found that after a long-time self-organized process, the two coupled
chaotic systems can achieve synchronization with almost minimum required
coupling-speed ratio.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
Measuring the Top Yukawa Coupling at 100 TeV
We propose a measurement of the top Yukawa coupling at a 100 TeV hadron
collider, based on boosted Higgs and top decays. We find that the top Yukawa
coupling can be measured to 1%, with excellent handles for reducing systematic
and theoretical uncertainties, both from side bands and from
ratios.Comment: v2: expanded contents and authorshi
Substructure coupling for dynamic analysis and testing
Fixed interface and free interface methods of substructure coupling for dynamic analysis are discussed. Three methods for reducing the number of coordinates required by fixed interface methods are introduced. Matrix ordinary differential equations are employed to improve accuracy in free interface substructure coupling methods
Reducing nonideal to ideal coupling in random matrix description of chaotic scattering: Application to the time-delay problem
We write explicitly a transformation of the scattering phases reducing the
problem of quantum chaotic scattering for systems with M statistically
equivalent channels at nonideal coupling to that for ideal coupling. Unfolding
the phases by their local density leads to universality of their local
fluctuations for large M. A relation between the partial time delays and
diagonal matrix elements of the Wigner-Smith matrix is revealed for ideal
coupling. This helped us in deriving the joint probability distribution of
partial time delays and the distribution of the Wigner time delay.Comment: 4 pages, revtex, no figures; published versio

Grand Unified Yukawa Matrix Ansatz: The Standard Model Fermion Mass, Quark Mixing and CP Violation Parameters
We propose a new mass matrix ansatz: At the grand unified (GU) scale, the
standard model (SM) Yukawa coupling matrix elements are integer powers of the
square root of the GU gauge coupling constant \varepsilon \equiv
\sqrt{\alpha_{\text{GU}}}, multiplied by order unity random complex numbers. It
relates the hierarchy of the SM ermion masses and quark mixings to the gauge
coupling constants, greatly reducing the SM parameters, and can give good
fitting results of the SM fermion mass, quark mixing and CP violation
parameters. This is a neat but very effective ansatz.Comment: 4 pages (two columns), by REVTeX 4, 2 tables, no figures, version for
