Laboratory Generation of Solitary Waves:An Inversion Technique to Improve Available Methods

Solitary waves are often used in laboratory experiments to study tsunamis propagation and interaction with coasts. However, the experimental shape of the waves may differ from the theoretical one. In this paper, a correction technique aiming at minimizing the discrepancies between the two profiles is presented. Laboratory experiments reveal their effectiveness in correcting the experimental shape of solitary waves, mainly for low nonlinearities.

Digital Self-Calibration Technique Based on 14-Bit SAR ADC

An error correction technique to achieve a 14-bit successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter(SAR ADC) is proposed. A tunable split capacitor is designed to eliminate the mismatches caused by parasitic capacitors. The linearity error of capacitor array caused by process mismatch is calibrated by a novel calibration capacitor array that can improve the sampling rate. The dual-comparator topology ensures both the speed and precision of the ADC. The simulation results show that the SAR ADC after calibration achieves 83.07 dB SNDR and 13.5 bit ENOB at 500 kilosamples/s.

Bias Correction Technique for Estimating Quantiles of Finite Populations under Simple Random Sampling without Replacement

In this paper, the problem of nonparametric estimation of finite population quantile function using multiplicative bias correction technique is considered. A robust estimator of the finite population quantile function based on multiplicative bias correction is derived with the aid of a super population model. Most studies have concentrated on kernel smoothers in the estimation of regression functions. This technique has also been applied to various methods of non-parametric estimation of the finite population quantile already under review. A major problem with the use of nonparametric kernel-based regression over a finite interval, such as the estimation of finite population quantities, is bias at boundary points. By correcting the boundary problems associated with previous model-based estimators, the multiplicative bias corrected estimator produced better results in estimating the finite population quantile function. Furthermore, the asymptotic behavior of the proposed estimators is presented. It is observed that the estimator is asymptotically unbiased and statistically consistent when certain conditions are satisfied. The simulation results show that the suggested estimator is quite well in terms of relative bias, mean squared error, and relative root mean error. As a result, the multiplicative bias corrected estimator is strongly suggested for survey sampling estimation of the finite population quantile function.

An Example of Multiplane Balancing Techniques in Situ

This paper presents the dynamic motion response by rotor unbalance malfunctions and the restraints available to oppose these applied forces and corrective techniques that can be used to reduce the effects of mass unbalance.The mass unbalance is the most common and frequent anomaly in rotating machines,and therefore,although there are many computer programs that solve many cases,we believe it is important to remember his theory here.About this subject should techniques for correcting unbalance problems described in this document be applied.And,more importantly,a tape is made without disassembling the machine,if the transducers described in this work are installed.

Cu(Ⅱ),Ni(Ⅱ)Complexation with Acid Alizarine Blue B in the Presence of Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide

The coordination reactions of Cu（Ⅱ） and Ni（Ⅱ） with acid alizarine blue B （AABB） in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide （CTAB） micelle were investigated using the microsurface adsorptionspectral correction technique （MSASC）. The aggregation of AABB on CTAB followed the Langmuir isothermal adsorption law. The enrichment of AABB on CTAB sensitized the complexation between Cu（Ⅱ） or Ni（Ⅱ）and AABB. The binding ratio of AABB to CTAB was 1：2.5, and monomeric aggregate, AABB2CTAB5, was formed with an adsorption constant of 5.95×10^5 at 20 ℃ or 2.48×10^5 at 40 ℃. In the ternary complexation, the ratio of AABB：Cu and AABB：Ni were 1：1 and 1：2.5, respectively. Two types of aggregates, Cu2.AABB2·CTAB80 and Ni5.AABB2.CTAB80, were formed.

Novel Approach to Characterization of Rare Earth Complexation with 1, 5-Bis(2-Hydroxy-5-Chlorphenyl)-3-Cyanoformazan in Presence of Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide

The ternary interaction of 1, 5 bis(2 hydroxy 5 chlorphenyl) 3 cyanoformazan (HCPCF) with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and rare earths (RE: Yb, Dy, Er and Eu) was investigated at pH 9.84 by the microsurface adsorption spectral correction technique (MSASC). The aggregation of HCPCF on CTAB obeys the Langmuir isothermal adsorption and the interaction of RE with the HCPCF CTAB aggregate was first found to accord with the monolayer binding. The effects of temperature and ionic strength of solution on the aggregations were made. The binary aggregate and the ternary complex were characterized.

A Regularized Newton Method with Correction for Unconstrained Convex Optimization

In this paper, we present a regularized Newton method (M-RNM) with correction for minimizing a convex function whose Hessian matrices may be singular. At every iteration, not only a RNM step is computed but also two correction steps are computed. We show that if the objective function is LC2, then the method posses globally convergent. Numerical results show that the new algorithm performs very well.

Integrating Krylov Deferred Correction and Generalized Finite Difference Methods for Dynamic Simulations of Wave Propagation Phenomena in Long-Time Intervals

In this paper,a high-accuracy numerical scheme is developed for long-time dynamic simulations of 2D and 3D wave propagation phenomena.In the derivation of the present approach,the second order time derivative of the physical quantity in the wave equation is treated as a substitution variable.Based on the temporal discretization with the Krylov deferred correction(KDC)technique,the original wave problem is then converted into the modified Helmholtz equation.The transformed boundary value problem(BVP)in space is efficiently simulated by using the meshless generalized finite difference method(GFDM)with Taylor series after truncating the second and fourth order approximations.The developed scheme is finally verified by four numerical experiments including cases with complicated domains or the temporally piecewise defined source function.Numerical results match with the analytical solutions and results by the COMSOL software,which demonstrates that the developed KDC-GFDM can allow large time-step sizes for wave propagation problems in longtime intervals.

Numerical simulation of viscous flows with adaptively refined Cartesian grid

Quadtree-based Cartesian grid was automatically generated from specified geometry.Adaptive refinements were performed according to geometric parameters and solution of flow field.An altered CCST(curvature corrected symmetry technique)approach was proposed to apply solid wall boundary conditions. Driven flows in a square cavity and flows around NACA0012airfoil were simulated and compared with the result of published structured grid and stretched Cartesian grid.The results show that solid wall boundary condition are accurately applied by current altered CCST approach,while incompressible/compressible subsonic, transonic and supersonic viscous flows are adequately simulated with adaptively refined Cartesian grid.
