The mathematical modelling of oscillatory transient processes in complex mechanical systems is a difficult task. This is especially relevant to objects, including elements, that are analysed as ...

A ripe apple falling from a tree has inspired Sir Isaac Newton to formulate a theory that describes the motion of objects subject to a force. Newton's equations of motion tell us that a moving body ...

In these ways, many stimuli-responsive polymer and gel systems have been inspired by living systems. However, one of the characteristic and important behaviors in living systems is autonomous ...
