We first make use of the original ADT method to compute the mass of the dilaton squashed black holes in terms of three different reference spacetimes, which are the asymptotic geometry, the flat background and the spacetime of the Kaluza- Klein monopole with boundary matched to the original metric, respectively. Each mass satisfies the first law of black hole thermodynamics, although the mass computed on the basis of the boundary matching the Kaluza- Klein monopole is different from that of the other two reference spacetimes. Then the mass of the black holes is evaluated through the off-shell generalized ADT method.展开更多

The main external interference to a vehicle system in rail-borne transportation comes from the dynamic interaction between the wheel and the rail. To determine the forces exerted on the rail-contacting patches of a railcar is known to be one of the most complicated problems in rail haulage, expecially in its unsaturated state, i.e. before overall sliding occurs. Since the 1960s, many scholars, including K.L. Johnson and J.J.Kalker, have considered it a problem in rolling contact mechanics. However, none of the presented展开更多

We find that the observer dependence of such horizons is a direct consequence of associating a temperature and entropy to a spacetime. The geometrical picture of a horizon acting as a one-way membrane for information flow can be accepted as a natural interpretation of assigning a quantum field theory to a spacetime with boundary, ultimately leading to a close connection with thermodynamics.展开更多

We have presented the formula and studied the particle horizons in some of the cosmological models presented in our earlier papers. It is well known that the Friedman-Robertson-Walker (F-R-W) models, the energy density of the free gravitational field denoted by ε, equivalently denoted by MacCallum parameter ξ, vanishes but the particle horizons exist and thus the former has no bearing on the latter. However, we have shown in our models presented herein that ε is related with particle horizons. Further, it is shown that as ε grows, the segment of the corresponding particle horizon decreases and thus the radius of the corresponding visible universe decreases.展开更多
