It is shown that the main difference between the proposed method and previous ones is thatour meshing process is done completely in the parametric domains with the guarantee of meshquality. To obtain this aim, the Delaunay method is extended to anisotropic context of 2D domains,and a Riemannian metric map is introduced to remedy the mapping distortion from object space toparametric domain. Compared with previous algorithms, the approach is much simpler, more robust andspeedy. The algorithm is implemented and examples for several geometries are presented todemonstrate the efficiency and validity of the method.展开更多

Using the oblate spheroidal coordinate system, a more approximate and realistic description of motion in these bodies can be realized. In this paper, we derive the Riemannian acceleration for motion in oblate spheroidal coordinate system using the golden metric tensor in oblate spheroidal coordinates. The Riemannian acceleration in the oblate spheroidal coordinate system reduces to the pure Newtonian acceleration in the limit of c<sup>0</sup> and contains post-Newtonian correction terms of all orders of c<sup>-2</sup>. The result obtained thereby opens the way for further studies and applications of the motion of particles in oblate spheroidal coordinate system.展开更多

By strict calculation based on the Riemannian geometry, it is proved that the spatial curvature of the R-W metric is K=(κ-R2)/R2 . The result indicates that the R-W metric has no constant curvature when R(t)≠0 and κ is not spatial curvature factor. We can only consider κ as an adjustable parameter with κ≠0 in general situations. The result is completely different from the current understanding which is based on the precondition that the scalar factor R(t) is fixed. Due to this result, many conclusions in the current cosmology such as the densities of dark material and dark energy should be re-estimated. In this way, we may overcome the current puzzling situation of cosmology thoroughly.展开更多
