Coupling metric-affine gravity to a Higgs-like scalar field

General relativity (GR) exists in different formulations. They are equivalent in pure gravity but generically lead to distinct predictions once matter is included. After a brief overview of various versions of GR, we focus on metric-affine gravity, which a ...

Dynamic force coefficients identification on air-lubricated herringbone grooved journal bearing

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Eliott Philippe Guenat

The Narrow Groove Theory (NGT) is commonly used to simulate and design grooved gas bearing. However, measurements of dynamic force coefficients of Herringbone Grooved Journal Bearings (HGJBs) is missing, hence the validation historic NGT has never been per ...

Inflationary perturbations with Lifshitz scaling

Sergey Sibiryakov

Instead of Lorentz invariance, gravitational degrees of freedom may obey Lifshitz scaling at high energies, as it happens in Horava's proposal for quantum gravity. We study consequences of this proposal for the spectra of primordial perturbations generated ...

Experimental results of gravity currents travelling over a fissured bed

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

Gravity currents are geophysical flows having large impact on human life and on the environment. The need to prevent and mitigate their negative consequences justifies the multitude of studies carried out to understand their physics. However little has bee ...

Horava Gravity is Asymptotically Free in 2+1 Dimensions

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Mario Herrero Valea

We compute the beta functions of marginal couplings in projectable Horava gravity in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions. We show that the renormalization group flow has an asymptotically free fixed point in the ultraviolet (UV), establishing the theory as a UV-com ...

Disparity and Optical Flow Partitioning Using Extended Potts Priors

Martin Kurt Storath

This paper addresses the problems of disparity and optical flow partitioning based on the brightness invariance assumption. We investigate new variational approaches to these problems with Potts priors and possibly box constraints. For the optical flow par ...

Completing Lorentz violating massive gravity at high energies

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Theories with massive gravitons are interesting for a variety of physical applications, ranging from cosmological phenomena to holographic modeling of condensed matter systems. To date, they have been formulated as effective field theories with a cutoff pr ...

Performance in Transverse Direction of Fiber‐Reinforced Polymer Bridge Decks

Thomas Keller, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Sonia Yanes Armas

Pultruded glass fiber‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) bridge decks distribute punctual vehicular loads to the underlying superstructure and can also act as the upper chord of hybrid main girders. The deck’s structural performance in both cases is influenced by i ...

Static performance in transverse direction of pultruded GFRP bridge decks

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Sonia Yanes Armas

Pultruded glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bridge decks distribute punctual vehicular loads to the underlying superstructure and can also act as the upper chord of hybrid main girders. The deck’s structural performance in both cases is influenced by i ...

Experienced travel time prediction for congested freeways

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mehmet Yildirimoglu

Travel time is an important performance measure for transportation systems, and dissemination of travel time information can help travelers make reliable travel decisions such as route choice or departure time. Since the traffic data collected in real time ...

Experienced Travel Time Prediction for Freeway Systems

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mehmet Yildirimoglu

Travel time is considered as one of the most important performance measures for roadway systems, and dissemination of travel time information can help travelers to make reliable travel decisions such as route choice or time departure. Since the traffic dat ...

Can a Metal Surface Repel Electric Charges?

Primoz Rebernik Ribic

We show that the interaction between a surface and a charge packet moving parallel to it can become repulsive above a critical relativistic energy. We find that this is true for a lossless dielectric surface and also for a Drude metallic surface-in apparen ...

Models of non-relativistic quantum gravity: the good, the bad and the healthy

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Horava's proposal for non-relativistic quantum gravity introduces a preferred time foliation of space-time which violates the local Lorentz invariance. The foliation is encoded in a dynamical scalar field which we call 'khronon'. The dynamics of the khrono ...

Gravitational radiation in Horava gravity

Hillary Sanctuary, Diego Blas Temino

We study the radiation of gravitational waves by self-gravitating binary systems in the low-energy limit of Horava gravity. We find that the predictions for the energy-loss formula of general relativity are modified already for Newtonian sources: the quadr ...

Horava gravity versus thermodynamics: The black hole case

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Under broad assumptions, breaking of Lorentz invariance in gravitational theories leads to tension with unitarity because it allows for processes that apparently violate the second law of thermodynamics. The crucial ingredient of this argument is the exist ...

Consistent Extension of Horava Gravity

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

We propose a natural extension of Horava's model for quantum gravity, which is free from the notorious pathologies of the original proposal. The new model endows the scalar graviton mode with a regular quadratic action and remains power-counting renormaliz ...

Comment on "Strong coupling in extended Horava-Lifshitz gravity" [Phys. Lett. B 685 (2010) 197]

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

We show that, contrary to the claim made in arXiv:0911.1299, the extended Horava gravity model proposed in arXiv:0909.3525 does not suffer from a strong coupling problem. By studying the observational constraints on the model we determine the bounds on the ...
