A satellite hosted by a given Planet is well protected by the gravitational pertubation of much heavier planets such as Jupiter and Saturn if the natural satellite lies deep inside the respective host Planet Hill sphere. Each planet has a Hill radius a<sub>H</sub> and planet mean radius R<sub>P </sub>and the ratio R<sub>1</sub>=R<sub>P</sub>/a<sub>H</sub>. Under very low R<sub>1 </sub>(less than 0.006) the approximation of CRTBP (centrally restricted three-body problem) to two-body problem is valid and planet has spacious Hill lobe to capture a satellite and retain it. This ensures a high probability of capture of natural satellite by the given planet and Sun’s perturbation on Planet-Satellite binary can be neglected. This is the case with Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus. But Mercury and Venus has R<sub>1</sub>=R<sub>P</sub>/a<sub>H</sub> =0.01 and 5.9862 × 10<sup>-3</sup> respectively hence they have no satellites. There is a limit to the dimension of the captured body. It must be a much smaller body both dimensionally as well masswise. The qantitative limit is a subject of an independent study.展开更多

The constitutive behavior of this kind of materials may involve both inherent anisotropy and plastic deformation induced anisotropy. A description of the cyclic plasticity for this kind of dual-phase materials is proposed by use of a microstructure-based constitutive model for a pearlitic colony, and the Hill's self-consistent scheme incorporating anisotropic Eshelby tensor for ellipsoidal inclusions. The corresponding numerical algorithm is developed. The responses of pearlitic steel BS 11 and single-phase hard-drawn copper subjected to asymmetrically cyclic loading are analyzed. The analytical results agree very well with experimental ones. Compared with the results using isotropic Eshelby tensor, it is shown that the isotropic approximation can provide acceptable overall responses in a much simpler way.展开更多

Forearm and whole arm rotations of three different subjects were performed downwards (elbow and shoulder extension) and upwards (elbow and shoulder flexion) with maximum velocity. These arm rotations were recorded with a special camera system and the theoretically derived model of constant maximum power was fitted to the experimentally measured data. The moment of inertia of the arm sectors was calculated using immersion technique for determining accurate values of friction coefficients of elbow and whole arm rotations. The experiments of the present study verified the conclusions of a previous study in which theoretically derived equation with constant maximum power was in agreement with experimentally measured results. The results of the present study were compared with the mechanics of Hill’s model and a further development of Hill’s force-velocity relationship was derived: Hill’s model was transformed into a constant maximum power model consisting of three different components of power. It was concluded that there are three different states of motion: 1) the state of low speed, maximal acceleration without external load which applies to the hypothesis of constant moment;2) the state of high speed, maximal power without external load which applies to the hypothesis of constant power and 3) the state of maximal power with external load which applies to Hill’s equation. This is a new approach to Hill’s equation.展开更多

We also review briefly some recent advances on localization preservation of operations including nonlinear inversion, matrix factorization and optimization.展开更多

The first comes from the discretization process of a Continuous-time Hill’s equation, we called Discretized Hill’s equation. The Second is a naturally obtained in Discrete-Time and will be called Discrete-time Hill’s equation. The objective of discretization is preserving the continuous-time behavior and we show this property. On the contrary a completely different dynamic property was found for the Discrete-Time Hill’s equation. At the end of the paper is shown that both types share the nonoscillatory behavior of solutions in the 0-th Arnold Tongue.展开更多
