v4 for identified particles at RHIC from viscous hydrodynamics
Using ideal and viscous hydrodynamics, the ratio of azimuthal moments
v4/(v2)^2 is calculated for pions, protons, and kaons in sqrt{s}=200 A*GeV
Au+Au collisions. For any value of viscosity here is little dependence on
particle species. Ideal hydrodynamics and data show a flat curve as a function
of pt. Adding viscosity in the standard way destroys this flatness. However, it
can be restored by replacing the standard quadratic ansatz for delta f (the
viscous correction to the distribution function at freeze-out) with a weaker
momentum dependence.Comment: Proceedings of Hot Quarks 2010, 21-26 June 2010 La Londe Les Maures,

Optimal control of the heave motion of marine cable subsea-unit systems
One of the key problems associated with subsea operations involving tethered subsea units is the motions of support vessels on the ocean surface which can be transmitted to the subsea unit through the cable and increase the tension. In this paper, a theoretical approach for heave compensation is developed. After proper modelling of each element of the system, which includes the cable/subsea-unit, the onboard winch, control theory is applied to design an optimal control law. Numerical simulations are carried out, and it is found that the proposed active control scheme appears to be a promising solution to the problem of heave compensation
