description: If confirmed, the Neptune-size exomoon candidate in the Kepler 1625 system will be the first natural satellite outside our Solar System. Its characteristics are nothing alike we know for a satellite. Kepler 1625b I is expected to be as massive as Neptune and to orbit at 40 planetary radii around a ten Jupiter mass planet. Because of its mass and wide orbit, this satellite was firstly thought to be captured instead of formed in-situ. In this work, we investigated the possibility of an in-situ formation of this exomoon candidate. To do so, we performed N-body simulations to reproduce the late phases of satellite formation and use a massive circum-planetary disc to explain the mass of this satellite. Our setups started soon after the gaseous nebula dissipation, when the satellite embryos are already formed. Also for selected exomoon systems we take into account a post-formation tidal evolution. We found that in-situ formation is viable to explain the origin of Kepler 1625b I, even when different values for the star-planet separation are considered. We show that for different star-planet separations the minimum amount of solids needed in the circum-planetary disc to form such a satellite varies, the wider is this separation more material is needed. In our simulations of satellite formation many satellites were formed close to the planet, this scenario changed after the tidal evolution of the systems. We concluded that if the Kepler1625 b satellite system was formed in-situ, tidal evolution was an important mechanism to sculpt its final architecture.

description: Land property, in the post socialist countries, was rebuilt in the beginning of the 90’s. The process went in different way in Poland and in Hungary. The different initial conditions are resulted in different development in the agricultural economy of these two countries. Now the agriculture had different characteristics. Despite of the fact that there are different elements of ownership structures, the importance of farm land leases is increasing in both evaluated countries. Regarding to the competitiveness of agriculture, Poland showed a developing tendency after the accession, but Hungary suffers from serious problems. The aims and means of agricultural policy have gone through numerous changes throughout the last fifty years in the history of the European Union and its predecessors. Specialties deriving from the characteristics of agricultural production and its structure have come continuously in the foreground when shaping the aims and means of the policy. The sustainable usage of natural resources is of augmented importance, which is basically based on the limitation of land usage and the introduction of various incentives. The (Axis 2) measures serve this objective by enhancing the utilization and protection of arable land. The land use is affected by all the above.

description: The foreign direct investment (FDI) is a form of the capital flow having several century traditions. In the privatization as well as modernization of economies following the economic and political transition of the countries in the Central and Eastern Europe at the 1990s the role of the foreign direct investment was significant. According to the research, besides to the general positive effects of the FDI (production culture, market demand orientated product and technology innovation, supplier nets of SMEs, diffused know-how, quality demands, etc.) also led to economic dependency as well as market structure deformations (see oil industry, sugar industry, retail chains). The point of view of sectors the foreign direct investment has flowed insignificantly into the agriculture (raw material production), while it has been significant into the food industry. The paper discusses the relations as well as causes of them.

description: The climate is changing and global mean temperatures have increased this is expected to have profound effects on food security. Long-term changes in climate will disproportionately affect tropical regions, meaning poor farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa will likely bear the brunt of adverse impacts. Adaptation plays an important role in reducing vulnerability to climate change and is therefore critical and of concern in developing countries, particularly in Africa where vulnerability is high because ability to adapt is low. This study examined farmers’ strategies for adapting to climate change in Ogbomoso agricultural zone of Oyo State of Nigeria. One hundred and fifty farmers were interviewed to obtain information from using a multistage sampling procedure. The results of the study showed that the types of climate change identified in the study area were delayed on-set of rainfall (38.0 percent), higher temperature (20.0 percent) and less rain (17.3 percent). The outcome of climate change were food shortage (41.3percent), decline in livestock yield (30.7 percent), decline in crop yield (28.7 percent) and death of livestock (16.0 percent). The identified actions taken to address climate change are growing a new crop (57.4 percent), adoption of drought tolerant/ resistance crop varieties (50.0 percent), diversification from crops to livestock production (40.7 percent) and using of new land management practices. The long-term improvement investments commonly adapted in the study area were tree planting/agroforestry, mulching/surface cover, improved fallowing and fallowing. The study concluded that household size, extension visits and non-farm income significantly impact on the various strategies used in adaptation to climate change.

description: Functional linear models are one of the most fundamental tools to assess the relation between two random variables of a functional or scalar nature. This contribution proposes a goodness-of-fit test for the functional linear model with functional response that neatly adapts to functional/scalar responses/predictors. In particular, the new goodness-of-fit test extends a previous proposal for scalar response. The test statistic is based on a convenient regularized estimator, is easy to compute, and is calibrated through an efficient bootstrap resampling. A graphical diagnostic tool, useful to visualize the deviations from the model, is introduced and illustrated with a novel data application. The R package goffda implements the proposed methods and allows for the reproducibility of the data application.

description: We present a simple picture that provides the energy and scattering length dependence for all inelastic three-body collision rates in the ultracold regime for three-body systems with short range two-body interactions. In particular, we present the scaling laws for vibrational relaxation, three-body recombination, and collision-induced dissociation for systems that support s-wave two-body collisions. These systems include three identical bosons (BBB), two identical bosons (BBB'), and two identical fermions (FFF'). Our approach reproduces all previous results, predicts several others, and gives the general form of the scaling laws in all cases.

description: Objective: The objective of this study was to compare the brake response time of drivers with paraplegia (who use hand control) with drivers without paraplegia (who use their feet) in a virtual driving simulator brake test. Additionally, we aimed to predict and evaluate the association of virtual brake response time with sociodemographic, motor and cognitive variables. Methods: 40 male adult drivers, with paraplegia (n = 20, mean age 38.1 ± 3.6 years) and without paraplegia (n = 20, mean age 38.0 ± 5.8 years), with valid driver licenses, had their brake response time evaluated in an automatic transmission car simulator. Non-disabled drivers were tested with conventional foot controls, while paraplegic drivers used hand controls. Drivers with paraplegia performed simple, choice and go/no-go reaction time tests as neuropsychological evaluations. Student’s t-test was used to examine the differences of driving simulator brake response time between groups. Pearson coefficient verified the correlation of driving simulator brake response time with years of driving, length of disability, handgrip strength and neuropsychological tests of the paraplegic drivers. A regression model was developed to describe the mean of driving simulator brake response time using the backward elimination method for model adjustment selecting the explanatory variables. Results: Differences of simulator brake response time between groups were not statistically significant (non-paraplegic drivers = 0.90 seconds; paraplegic drivers = 0.92 seconds, p > 0.05). Years of driving significantly correlates with brake response time of paraplegic driver (r= −58, p = 0.009). Linear regression analyses indicated that years of schooling and years of driving (explanatory variables) explained 60.2% of driving simulator brake response time for the drivers with paraplegia. Driving simulator brake response time showed no difference between drivers with and without paraplegia. Years of driving and schooling were the main predictors of braking performance in drivers with paraplegia measured in a driving simulator.

description: The study analyzed the technology based capacity utilization rate in sugar industry in Nigeria in the period 1970 to 2010. Data used in the study were obtained from the sugar firms, publications of the Central Bank of Nigeria and National Bureau of Statistics. Augmented Dicker Fuller unit root test was conducted on the specified data to ascertain their stationarity and order of integration. The result reveals that some variables were stationary at level while some were stationary at first difference. The diagnostic statistics from the multiple log linear regression on the specified variables confirmed the reliability of the model. The empirical result reveals that sugar cane price and sugar industry’s real energy consumption have significant negative relationship with the technology based capacity utilization in the sugar industry in Nigeria. On the other hand, the wage rate of skill workers, industry’s, real research expenditure, human capital and period of import substitution have significant positive influenced on the technology based capacity utilization rate in the industry. Our findings suggest that policy measures aim at expanding the hectares of industrial sugarcane and increase production of refined petroleum fuel in the country will promote capacity utilization in the industry. Also policies targeted on the intensification of research and improved worker’s remuneration in the sub-sector is strongly advocated.

Symmetries and physical functions in general gauge theory

description: The aim of the present article is to describe the symmetry structure of a general gauge (singular) theory, and, in particular, to relate the structure of gauge transformations with the constraint structure of a theory in the Hamiltonian formulation. We demonstrate that the symmetry structure of a theory action can be completely revealed by solving the so-called symmetry equation. We develop a corresponding constructive procedure of solving the symmetry equation with the help of a special orthogonal basis for the constraints. Thus, we succeed in describing all the gauge transformations of a given action. We find the gauge charge as a decomposition in the orthogonal constraint basis. Thus, we establish a relation between the constraint structure of a theory and the structure of its gauge transformations. In particular, we demonstrate that, in the general case, the gauge charge cannot be constructed with the help of some complete set of first-class constraints alone, because the charge decomposition also contains second-class constraints. The above-mentioned procedure of solving the symmetry equation allows us to describe the structure of an arbitrary symmetry for a general singular action. Finally, using the revealed structure of an arbitrary gauge symmetry, we give a rigorous proof of the equivalence of two definitions of physicality condition in gauge theories: one of them states that physical functions are gauge-invariant on the extremals, and the other requires that physical functions commute with FCC (the Dirac conjecture).

description: The study was conducted to access the performance of rural credit markets in the North West Region of Cameroon. Specifically, it identifies the various participants in credit markets, estimate as and analysis the credit demand and supply functions. Data were primarily gathered through a multi-stage sampling technique involving 360 households and 60 credit institutions. Results reveal that interest, income, household size, farm size, education age and sex of respondents were determinants of credit demand while Interest paid, gross income and source of loan determined credit supply. It was recommended that interest should be kept low to encourage proper functioning of credit markets.
Mathematical models of an elastomeric material for non-uniform and multiaxial deformation conditions
Creators: name: Li, Dan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The goal of this research project is to develop mathematical constitutive models to predict the stable mechanical behaviour of elastomeric materials for non-uniform and/or multiaxial deformation conditions at low or medium strain (<100%) and with a low strain rate. This study required a series of characterization tests for elastomers in standard deformations modes. These experimental data were used to fit the standard Mooney- Rivlin strain energy function. A series of characterization tests for a silicone elastomer were completed at UBC and correlated to material characterization data provided by Ballard Power Systems, Inc. The experimental data showed that material response changes with the maximum strain experienced and deformation mode. The material constants in the Mooney-Rivlin strain energy function were fitted by regression analysis according to the results of the characterization tests. For each individual strain level and deformation mode, the resulting material constants are unique. A constitutive model was developed by applying the standard Mooney-Rivlin constitutive model with novel techniques incorporating the maximum strain experienced and the deformation mode. The techniques are a non-uniform strain and a strain partitioning technique. The non-uniform strain technique was expected to give better results for a component experiencing non-uniform strain conditions. The strain partitioning technique eliminates the need of determining the deformation mode before an analysis. Together, these techniques were expected to provide more realistic deformation predictions for elastomeric materials experiencing non-uniform and multiaxial deformation. Two mechanical tests were designed to provide the data necessary to validate the non-uniform strain and strain partitioning techniques. The first test, a tapered dogbone sample, exhibited varying amounts of uniaxial tension deformation within the gauge-length area, when stretched. The second test, a cross sample, exhibited varying multiaxial deformations when loaded in two perpendicular directions with different amounts of displacements. The predictions from the mechanical models incorporating the proposed constitutive models as an input agree with experimental data in these two tests, which validates the applicability of the proposed techniques. These techniques will aid in understanding the stable response of elastomeric materials used for seals in fuel cells. Developing an improved understanding of the deformation response will help in predicting seal integrity and improve the overall reliability of PEM fuel cells.
Groundwater Withdrawals Associated with Oil and Gas Production from Water Supply Aquifers in Texas: Implications for Water Management Practices

description: The demand for water is continuing to increase as population and industry grow. The Natural Resources Defense Council indicated that Texas is at “extreme risk” for implementation of sustainable water management practices especially since groundwater is the supplier of much of the state’s freshwater. This study is designed to assess groundwater conservation practices in association with oil and gas production from the surrounding areas of the Carrizo-Wilcox formation in Texas. The results of this study reveal that the Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC), the governing agency for Texas oil and gas development, permits produced water to be discharged into surface waters if the discharged water quality meets Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (TSWQS) set by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for the specific receiving water body. After careful evaluation of data provided by the Railroad Commission of Texas, it is believed that nearly 5,331,975 m3 (4,321 ac⋅ft) of produced water per year, with an average TDS of 960 mg L-1, is being removed from the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer through discharge permits designated as “agricultural”. The RRC is not legally required to share the discharge information with local Groundwater Conservation Districts. Based on an evaluation of the reported Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) test data, 69 discharges amount to total suspended solid (TDS) levels of less than 1,000 mg L-1, 35 are between 1,000-1,500 mg L-1, and 20 between 1,500 - 4,000 mg L-1. Although 69% of discharges exceed the secondary drinking water standard for TDS (500 mg L-1), the average of all discharges, 960 mg L-1, is in line with the arbitrary upper limit for freshwater based on the suitability for human consumption. In addition, the water quality of surface discharges complies with requirements for several water reuses associated with agricultural and industrial practices. The lack of communication between groundwater users leads to conflicting groundwater practices that have negative impacts such as contribution to aquifer over-exploitation and alteration of hydraulic gradients, in turn negatively impacting existing groundwater conservation efforts.

description: Meloxicam (MLX) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory which is practically insoluble in water, requiring high concentrations to reach therapeutic levels and causing frequently gastrointestinal effects. In this way, the aim of this study was to synthesize two eutectic mixtures of MLX with mandelic acid (MND) and saccharin (SAC) by liquid-assisted grinding resulting in a multicomponent material with enhanced solubility. Mixtures were studied in different stoichiometric and eutectic point was found for each eutectic by Binary phase diagram and Tamman’s triangle, with 0.33 molar fraction of MLX for SAC and MND. Eutectics were characterized by thermoanalytical techniques (TG-DSC, EGA, DSC and DSC-microscopy), infrared spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction. Thermal behaviour was studied and videos of the materials being heated was available. A polymorphic transition was discovered and studied for MLX-MND eutectic. Each new system was evaluated by solubility, dissolution and hygroscopicity tests. Eutectics showed an increase in solubility of 1.7x (MLX-MND1), 3.1x (MLX-MND2) and 1.3x (MLX-SAC) with slower dissolution profile when compared to MLX. All new solid forms showed high hygroscopicity at 98% relative humidity with 27.9% and 58.9% increase in mass at day four for MLX-SAC and MLX-MND, deliquescence occurs at day six. The experiments and analysis in this study help to understand the behaviour of eutectics and evaluate them as an approach to modify properties in drugs.

description: Die in dieser Arbeit getestete voll-automatisierte Software lieferte exakte Ergebnisse für die Volumetrie der Leber. Insbesondere auch dann, wenn nur nativen Serien, unterschiedlichen Schichtdicken oder eine Vielzahl unterschiedliche Pathologien gegeben waren. Unterschiedliche Dichtekoeffizienten wurden für Patienten mit verschieden weit fortgeschrittenen Leberpathologien berechnet, welche mithilfe des Ishak Scores kalkuliert wurden. So konnte gezeigt werden, dass mit steigender Fibrosierung des Leberparenchyms proportional eine erhöhte Dichte einhergeht. Zudem konnten bei Patienten mit einer polyzystischen Lebererkrankung ebenfalls unterschiedliche Dichtekoeffizienten dargestellt werden, welche sich generell als niedriger herausstellten. Durch die unterschiedlichen Dichtekoeffizienten können Fehler in der Gewichtsanpassung zwischen Spender- und Empfängerorganen präoperativ minimiert werden, was zu einer Verringerung der Transplantatabstoßungen und schlussendlich zu einem größeren Transplantationserfolg führen kann. Zusammenfassend konnte eine automatische Software analysiert werden, welche mithilfe der Berechnung verschiedener Dichtekoeffizienten bei diversen Leberpathologien eine exakte CT Volumetrie der Leber im klinischen Alltag ermöglicht.

description: To explore barriers and facilitators to optimal child restraint system (CRS) use for diverse parents of newborn infants and to obtain input from parents on the use of technology-assisted remote car seat checks as tools for promoting optimal CRS use. Parents were recruited using purposive sampling. Interviews were conducted with English- or Spanish-speaking parents with a full term newborn and regular access to a car. Interviews were conducted by phone, and recorded and transcribed verbatim. Interviews were conducted until thematic saturation was reached. Data were organized for analysis using Atlas.ti, and codes grouped by theme using constant comparison. 30 parents were enrolled. Barriers and facilitators to optimal CRS use were classified into three themes, as were thoughts on the pros and cons regarding remote car seat checks. Themes on barriers and facilitators included motor vehicle and CRS features (such as age and size of the motor vehicle and presence of the Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children LATCH system), resources (availability, accessibility, and accuracy of resources), and parental factors (parental emotions and characteristics). Themes related to pros and cons of remote car seat checks included the ability (and challenge) of remote car seat checks to identify and correct errors, the potential use of remote car seat checks in certain situations (such as CRS transitions and periods of growth), and convenience of remote car seat checks (including increased availability and ease of access). Subthemes with further detail were arranged within each theme identified. From a parent perspective, there are several identified barriers and facilitators of optimal CRS use. Although car seat checks were identified as a resource, in-person accessibility was an issue, and there were mixed opinions on technology-assisted remote car seat checks. These results provide a foundation for additional study on targeted interventions, including remote interventions for which there is an increased need due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

description: Variance-based Sobol' sensitivity is one of the most well-known measures in global sensitivity analysis (GSA). However, uncertainties with certain distributions, such as highly skewed distributions or those with a heavy tail, cannot be adequately characterised using the second central moment only. Entropy-based GSA can consider the entire probability density function, but its application has been limited because it is difficult to estimate. Here we present a novel derivative-based upper bound for conditional entropies, to efficiently rank uncertain variables and to work as a proxy for entropy-based total effect indices. To overcome the non-desirable issue of negativity for differential entropies as sensitivity indices, we discuss an exponentiation of the total effect entropy and its proxy. Numerical verifications demonstrate that the upper bound is tight for monotonic functions and it provides the same input variable ranking as the entropy-based indices for about three-quarters of the 1000 random functions tested. We found that the new entropy proxy performs similarly to the variance-based proxies for a river flood physics model with 8 inputs of different distributions, and these two proxies are equivalent in the special case of linear functions with Gaussian inputs. We expect the new entropy proxy to increase the variable screening power of derivative-based GSA and to complement Sobol'-indices proxy for a more diverse type of distributions.

description: We study abelianization of QCD in the maximally abelian (MA) gauge. In the MA gauge, the off-diagonal gluon amplitude is strongly suppressed, and then the off-diagonal gluon phase shows strong randomness, which leads to a large off-diagonal gluon mass. Using lattice QCD, we find a large effective off-diagonal gluon mass in the MA gauge: $M_{\rm off} \simeq 1.2 {\rm GeV}$ in SU(2) QCD, $M_{\rm off} \simeq 1.1 {\rm GeV}$ in SU(3) QCD. Due to the large off-diagonal gluon mass in the MA gauge, infrared QCD is well abelianized like nonabelian Higgs theories. We investigate the inter-monopole potential and the dual gluon field $B_μ$ in the MA gauge, and find longitudinal magnetic screening with $m_B \simeq$ 0.5 GeV in the infrared region, which indicates the dual Higgs mechanism by monopole condensation. We propose a gauge invariant description of the MA projection by introducing the ``gluonic Higgs scalar field''.

description: In a new budgetary framework for years 2014-2020, changes will be made in expenditures of financial means from the EU budget, which will significantly influence incomes of agricultural producers in all member states of the Community. Incomes of agricultural enterprises always represented a very sensitive area of economic-political approaches in the agrarian sector. At the present, the situation is the same. In a theoretical sphere and in practice of institutions, ways to monitor incomes of agricultural farms, to analyze them, and what measures on base of these analyses to realize, are searched. The submitted paper deals in this context with a question of incomes according to their origin – agricultural incomes, incomes from non-agricultural activities, subsidy means. The aim is to draw attention to the fact that the subsidiary policy towards farmers can not be base in the area of incomes only on development and height of incomes, which have their origin in agricultural activities, but that it is necessary to consider the general income situation. A special attention has to be paid than to non-agricultural incomes – which are in the attention center in connection with demanding activity diversification. Knowledge presented in this paper is the result of grant solution MSM 6046070906 “Economics of Czech agriculture resources and their efficient usage within the framework of multifunctional agri-food systems".

description: From a social viewpoint, Czech rural areas are defined by joint, specific interests by which they differ from the urban environment. In relation to this, this article asks the fundamental question whether class polarization is the background factor of voting results, or if political conflict is based on different factors. The aim of this article is, through a case study of Zatec region, to verify the applicability of the social structural model of voting behaviour of citizens of Czech rural areas.

description: Drivers with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) may have an increased crash risk. However, the driving performance deficits that contribute to crashes are not fully understood. Based on the extant literature, adjustment to stimuli errors indicate failing an on-road assessment. This study examines whether adjustment to stimuli errors can detect the occurrence of collisions in a driving simulator in drivers with MS. As part of a quasi-experiment, 38 participants with MS and 21 participants without MS completed visual-cognitive and driving simulator assessments, which also recorded their adjustment to stimuli maneuvers. We quantified participants’ adjustment to stimuli maneuvers via initial pedal reaction time (seconds), time to collision (seconds), mean speed (meters per second), and the occurrence of rear-end collisions (collide vs. did not collide) when a simulated vehicle cut across the lane in front of them. Logistic regression analyses indicated that, compared to drivers without MS, those with MS had a shorter time to collision (OR= .04, p= .001, 95% CI= [.006, .27]) and a faster mean speed (OR= 1.32, p= .04, 95% CI= [1.01, 1.74]) which increased the odds of experiencing a rear-end collision. Receiver operating characteristic curve analyses indicated that, for MS and control groups, time to collision (MS group = AUC= .94, ppp=.005, Control group = AUC = .78, p= .005) differentiated between participants who collided vs. did not collide. For drivers with MS, a time to collision of ≤1.81 seconds (85% sensitivity, 100% specificity, 15% error rate), and a mean speed of ≥7.83 meters per second (77% sensitivity, 76% specificity, 47% error rate) predicted the occurrence of collisions with the lowest error rate. During a driving simulator assessment, adjustment to stimuli errors predicted the occurrence of rear-end collisions in drivers with MS (vs. without MS). Driving assessors may target scenarios that measure participants’ adjustment to stimuli, via time to collision and mean speed, to make decisions about their visual–cognitive deficits and driving performance.

description: Recent years have seen a rise in social media platforms that provide peer-to-peer support to individuals suffering from mental distress. Studies on the impact of these platforms have focused on either short-term scales of single-post threads, or long-term changes over arbitrary period of time (months or years). While important, such arbitrary periods do not necessarily follow users' progressions through acute periods of distress. Using data from Talklife, a mental health platform, we find that user activity follows a distinct pattern of high activity periods with interleaving periods of no activity, and propose a method for identifying such bursts and breaks in activity. We then show how studying activity during bursts can provide a personalized, medium-term analysis for a key question in online mental health communities: What characteristics of user activity lead some users to find support and help, while others fall short? Using two independent outcome metrics, moments of cognitive change and self-reported changes in mood during a burst of activity, we identify two actionable features that can improve outcomes for users: persistence within bursts, and giving complex emotional support to others. Our results demonstrate the value of considering bursts as a natural unit of analysis for psychosocial change in online mental health communities.

description: Surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices are ubiquitously used for signal processing and filtering, as well as mechanical, chemical and biological sensing, and show promise as quantum transducers. However, nowadays most SAWs are excited and driven via electromechanical coupling and interdigital transducers (IDTs), limiting operation bandwidth and flexibility. Novel ways to coherently excite and detect SAWs all-optically interfaced with photonic integrated circuits are yet elusive. Backward Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) provides strong coherent interactions between optical and acoustic waves in chip-scale waveguides, however, demonstrations have been limited to single longitudinal waves in the waveguide core. Here, we numerically model and experimentally demonstrate surface acoustic wave stimulated Brillouin scattering (SAW-SBS) on a photonic chip. We designed and fabricated tailored waveguides made out of GeAsSe glass that show good overlap between SAWs at 3.81 GHz and guided optical modes, without requiring a top cladding. We measure a 225 W$^{-1}$m$^{-1}$ Brillouin gain coefficient of the surface acoustic resonance and linewidth narrowing to 40 MHz. Experimentally accessing this new regime of stimulated Brillouin scattering opens the door for novel on-chip sensing and signal processing applications, strong Brillouin interactions in materials that do not provide sufficient acoustic guidance in the waveguide core as well as excitation of surface acoustic waves in non-piezoelectric materials.
