Transport coefficients of a mesoscopic fluid dynamics model
We investigate the properties of stochastic rotation dynamics
(Malevanets-Kapral method), a mesoscopic model used for simulating fluctuating
hydrodynamics. Analytical results are given for the transport coefficients. We
discuss the most efficient way of measuring the transport properties and obtain
excellent agreement between the theoretical and numerical calculations.Comment: 12 pages, 9 figures, submitted to J. Chem. Phy
Rotor vibration caused by external excitation and rub
For turbomachinery with low natural frequencies, considerations have been recently required for rotor vibrations caused by external forces except unbalance one, such as foundation motion, seismic wave, rub and so forth. Such a forced vibration is investigated analytically and experimentally in the present paper. Vibrations in a rotor-bearing system under a harmonic excitation are analyzed by the modal technique in the case of a linear system including gyroscopic effect. For a nonlinear system a new and powerful quasi-modal technique is developed and applied to the vibration caused by rub

Dynamical Susceptibility in KDP-type Crysals above and below Tc II
The path probability method (PPM) in the tetrahedron-cactus approximation is
applied to the Slater-Takagi model with dipole-dipole interaction for
KH2PO4-type hydrogen-bonded ferroelectric crystals in order to derive a small
dip structure in the real part of dynamical susceptibility observed at the
transition temperature Tc. The dip structure can be ascribed to finite
relaxation times of electric dipole moments responsible for the first order
transition with contrast to the critical slowing down in the second order
transition. The light scattering intensity which is related to the imaginary
part of dynamical susceptibility is also calculated above and below the
transition temperature and the obtained central peak structure is consistent
with polarization fluctuation modes in Raman scattering experiments.Comment: 8 pages, 11 figure
NMR characterization of spin-1/2 alternating antiferromagnetic chains in the high-pressure phase of (VO)2P2O7
Local-susceptibility measurements via the NMR shifts of P and V
nuclei in the high-pressure phase of (VO)PO confirmed the
existence of a unique alternating antiferromagnetic chain with a zero-field
spin gap of 34 K. The P nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate scales with
the uniform spin susceptibility below about 15 K which shows that the
temperature dependence of both the static and dynamical spin susceptibilities
becomes identical at temperatures not far below the spin-gap energy.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures; To be published in J. Phys. Condens. Matte
On Phase Transition of -Type Crystals by Cluster Variation Method
The Cluster Variation Method (CVM) is applied to the Ishibashi model for
ammonium dihydrogen phosphate () of a typical hydrogen
bonded anti-ferroelectric crystal. The staggered and the uniform susceptibility
without hysteresis are calculated at equilibrium. On the other hand, by making
use of the natural iteration method (NIM) for the CVM, hysteresis phenomena of
uniform susceptibility versus temperature observed in experiments is well
explained on the basis of local minimum in Landau type variational free energy.
The polarization curves against the uniform field is also calculated.Comment: 14 pages, 10 figure
A q-analogue of gl_3 hierarchy and q-Painleve VI
A q-analogue of the gl_3 Drinfel'd-Sokolov hierarchy is proposed as a
reduction of the q-KP hierarchy. Applying a similarity reduction and a
q-Laplace transformation to the hierarchy, one can obtain the q-Painleve VI
equation proposed by Jimbo and Sakai.Comment: 14 pages, IOP style, to appear in J. Phys. A Special issue "One

Application of exchange Monte Carlo method to ordering dynamics
We apply the exchange Monte Carlo method to the ordering dynamics of the
three-state Potts model with the conserved order parameter. Even for the deeply
quenched case to low temperatures, we have observed a rapid domain growth; we
have proved the efficiency of the exchange Monte Carlo method for the ordering
process. The late-stage growth law has been found to be for
the case of conserved order parameter of three-component system.Comment: 7 pages including 5 eps figures, to appear in New J. Phys.

Constraints on unparticle long range forces from big bang nucleosynthesis bounds on the variation of the gravitational coupling
We use big bang nucleosynthesis bounds on the variation of the gravitational
coupling to derive constraints on the strength of the deviation from the
gravitational inverse-square law due to tensor and vector unparticle exchange.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, change in the title and other minor changes to
