Frictional drag between two dilute two-dimensional hole layers.

We report drag measurements on dilute double layer two-dimensional hole systems in the regime of r(s) = 19-39. We observed a strong enhancement of the drag over the simple Boltzmann calculations of Coulomb interaction, and deviations from the T2 dependence which cannot be explained by phonon-mediated, plasmon-enhanced, or disorder-related processes. We suggest that this deviation results from interaction effects in the dilute regime.

Quantitative model of price diffusion and market friction based on trading as a mechanistic random process.

We model trading and price formation in a market under the assumption that order arrival and cancellations are Poisson random processes. This model makes testable predictions for the most basic properties of markets, such as the diffusion rate of prices (which is the standard measure of financial risk) and the spread and price impact functions (which are the main determinants of transaction cost). Guided by dimensional analysis, simulation, and mean-field theory, we find scaling relations in terms of order flow rates. We show that even under completely random order flow the need to store supply and demand to facilitate trading induces anomalous diffusion and temporal structure in prices.

Simulation study of spatiotemporal correlations of earthquakes as a stick-slip frictional instability.

Spatiotemporal correlations of earthquakes are studied numerically on the basis of the one-dimensional spring-block (Burridge-Knopoff) model. As large events approach, the frequency of smaller events gradually increases, while, just before the mainshock, it is dramatically suppressed in a close vicinity of the epicenter of the upcoming mainshock, a phenomenon closely resembling the "Mogi doughnut."

A finite element analysis of the load transfer between an above-knee residual limb and its prosthetic socket--roles of interface friction and distal-end boundary conditions.

A nonlinear finite element model was developed to investigate the manner of the load transfer between the above-knee residual limb and its prosthetic socket. The model was two-dimensional (2-D) with consideration of nonlinear boundary conditions and large deformation. Interface elements were used to simulate the friction/slip conditions between skin and the socket. Different distal-end conditions, including air cushion distal-end loading, were simulated to explore their influences on the load transfer.
