Simulation study of gust alleviation in a tilt rotor aircraft, volume 1
The response to vertical turbulence in cruise of the HTR XV-15 design is studied using simulation techniques. This design is a modified version of the XV-15 with a hingeless fiberglass soft-in-plane rotor system. The parameters of a gust alleviation system are determined and the performance of the system is evaluated over a range of cruise velocities and altitudes

Comparison of optical model results from a microscopic Schr\"odinger approach to nucleon-nucleus elastic scattering with those from a global Dirac phenomenology
Comparisons are made between results of calculations for intermediate energy
nucleon-nucleus scattering for 12C, 16O, 40Ca, 90Zr, and 208Pb, using optical
potentials obtained from global Dirac phenomenology and from a microscopic
Schr\"odinger model. Differential cross sections and spin observables for
scattering from the set of five nuclei at 65 MeV and 200 MeV have been studied
to assess the relative merits of each approach. Total reaction cross sections
from proton-nucleus and total cross sections from neutron-nucleus scattering
have been evaluated and compared with data for those five targets in the energy
range 20 MeV to 800 MeV. The methods of analyses give results that compare well
with experimental data in those energy regimes for which the procedures are
suited.Comment: 22 pages, 12 figure
Determination of the structure of Ne by full-microscopic framework
We perform the first quantitative analysis of the reaction cross sections of
Ne by C at 240 MeV/nucleon, using the double-folding model
(DFM) with the Melbourne -matrix and the deformed projectile density
calculated by the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD). To describe the
tail of the last neutron of Ne, we adopt the resonating group method
(RGM) combined with AMD. The theoretical prediction excellently reproduce the
measured cross sections of Ne with no adjustable parameters. The
ground state properties of Ne, i.e., strong deformation and a halo
structure with spin-parity , are clarified.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, 2 table
Deformation effect on total reaction cross sections for neutron-rich Ne-isotopes
Isotope-dependence of measured reaction cross sections in scattering of
Ne isotopes from C target at 240 MeV/nucleon is analyzed by
the double-folding model with the Melbourne -matrix. The density of
projectile is calculated by the mean-field model with the deformed Wood-Saxon
potential. The deformation is evaluated by the antisymmetrized molecular
dynamics. The deformation of projectile enhances calculated reaction cross
sections to the measured values.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, 2 table

Nucleon-nucleus optical potential in the particle-hole approach
Feshbach's projection formalism in the particle-hole model space leads to a
microscopic description of scattering in terms of the many-body self-energy. To
investigate the feasibility of this approach, an optical potential for O-16 is
constructed starting from two previous calculations of the self-energy for this
nucleus. The results reproduce the background phase shifts for positive parity
waves and the resonances beyond the mean field.
The latter can be computed microscopically for energies of astrophysical
interest using Green's function theory.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures. Submitted to Phys. Rev.
