W-graph ideals
We introduce a concept of a W-graph ideal in a Coxeter group. The main goal
of this paper is to describe how to construct a W-graph from a given W-graph
ideal. The principal application of this idea is in type A, where it provides
an algorithm for the construction of W-graphs for Specht modules.Comment: 25 page
Geometrically nonlinear isogeometric analysis of laminated composite plates based on higher-order shear deformation theory
In this paper, we present an effectively numerical approach based on
isogeometric analysis (IGA) and higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT)
for geometrically nonlinear analysis of laminated composite plates. The HSDT
allows us to approximate displacement field that ensures by itself the
realistic shear strain energy part without shear correction factors. IGA
utilizing basis functions namely B-splines or non-uniform rational B-splines
(NURBS) enables to satisfy easily the stringent continuity requirement of the
HSDT model without any additional variables. The nonlinearity of the plates is
formed in the total Lagrange approach based on the von-Karman strain
assumptions. Numerous numerical validations for the isotropic, orthotropic,
cross-ply and angle-ply laminated plates are provided to demonstrate the
effectiveness of the proposed method
Scalar sextet in the 331 model with right-handed neutrinos
A Higgs sextet is introduced in order to generate Dirac and Majorana neutrino
masses in the 331 model with right-handed neutrinos. As will be seen, the
present sextet introduction leads to a rich neutrino mass structure. The
smallness of neutrino masses can be achieved via, for example, a seesaw limit.
The fact that the masses of the charged leptons are not effected by their new
Yukawa couplings to the sextet is convenient for generating small neutrino
masses.Comment: RevTeX4, 5 pages, no figure. To appear in Phys. Rev. D. Misprints
