Extraction of the key infrared radiation temperature features concerning stress and crack evolution of loaded rocks

The infrared radiation temperature(IRT)variation concerning stress and crack evolution of rocks is a critical focus in rock mechanics domain and engineering disaster warning.In this paper,a methodology to extract the key IRT features related to stress and crack evolution of loaded rocks is proposed.Specifically,the wavelet denoising and reconstruction in thermal image sequence(WDRTIS)method is employed to eliminate temporal noise in thermal image sequences.Subsequently,the adaptive partition temperature drift correction(APTDC)method is introduced to alleviate temperature drift.On this basis,the spatial noise correction method based on threshold segmentation and adaptive median filtering(OTSU-AMF)is proposed to extract the key IRT features associated with microcracks of loaded rocks.Following temperature drift correction,IRT provides an estimation of the thermoelastic factor in rocks,typically around 5.29×10^(-5) MPa^(-1) for sandstones.Results reveal that the high-temperature concentrated region in cumulative thermal images of crack evolution(TICE)can elucidate the spatiotemporal evolution of localized damage.Additionally,heat dissipation of crack evolution(HDCE)acquired from TICE quantifies the progressive failure process of rocks.The proposed methodology enhances the reliability of IRT monitoring results and provides an innovative approach for conducting research in rock mechanics and monitoring engineering disasters.

Electronic structure and infrared spectrum of a W_n C^(0,±) (n = 1-6) cluster

WnC0＇± （n= 1-6） clusters are investigated by using the density functional theory （DFT） at the B3LYP/LANL2DZ level. We find that the neutral, anionic and cationic ground state structures are similar within the same size, and constituted by substituting a C atom for one W atom in the structures of Wn＋1 clusters. The natural bond orbital （NBO） charge analyses indicate that the direction of electron transfer is from the W atom to the 2p orbital of the C atom. In addition, the calculated infrared spectra of the WnC0＇± （n= 2-6） clusters manifest that the vibrational frequencies of neutral, anionic and cationic clusters are similar in a range of 80 cm-1-864 cm-1. The high frequency, strong peak modes are found to be an almost stretched deformation of the carbide atom. Finally, the polarizabilities of WnC0＇± （n= 1-6） clusters are also discussed.

MODIFICATION OF ABSORPTION SPECTRUM OF GaAs/AlGaAs QUANTUM WELL INFRARED PHOTODETECTOR BY POSTGROWTH ADJUSTMENT

Quantum well intermixing techniques modify the geometric shape of quantum wells to allow postgrowth adjustments.The tuning effect on the optical response property of a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well infrared photodetector(QWIP) induced by the interdifussion of Al atoms was studied theoretically.By assuming an improvement of the heterointerface quality and an enhanced Al interdiffusion caused by postgrowth intermixings,the photoluminescence spectrum shows a blue-shifted,narrower and enhanced photoluminescence peak.The infrared optical absorption spectrum also shows the expected redshift of the response wavelength.However,the variation in the absorption peak intensity depends on the boundary conditions of the photo generated carriers.For high-quality QWIP samples,the mean free path of photocarriers is long so that the photocarriers are largely coherent when they transport across quantum wells.In this case,the enhanced Al interdiffusion can significantly degrade the infrared absorption property of the QWIP.Special effects are therefore needed to maintain and/or improve the optical properties of the QWIP device during postgrowth treatments.

Evaluation of Expression Recognition Function in Autism Spectrum Disorder Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

One of the characteristics of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is social disorder. The specificity of facial and expression recognition for people with ASD is gathering attention as a factor of this social disorder. The study examined the hemodynamic activities in the prefrontal cortex using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) when a person with ASD performed an expression recognition task. The subjects were twenty males (18 - 22 years old) with ASD and without intellectual disabilities. Forty-five healthy males matched for age and sex were included as a control group. In both groups, the degree of autistic tendencies was evaluated using the Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ). Using eight standard emotional expressions of Japanese people, two expression recognition tasks were set. An NIRS was used to measure the prefrontal cortex blood mobilization during the expression-processing process. The AQ was significantly higher in the ASD group, while the rate of overall correct expression response was significantly lower (p &rho;= &minus;0.40 p < 0.001). In the automatic expression-processing task, no activation in the prefrontal cortex was found in either the ASD or the control group. In the conscious expression-processing task, the activation of the left and right lateral prefrontal cortex was weaker in the ASD group compared to the control group. Unlike in the control group, a mild activation of posterior prefrontal cortex was found in the ASD group. The expression-processing process of the ASD group was found to be different from that of the control group. NIRS was effective in detecting a brain function disorder in people with ASD during an expression-processing process.

Identifying Gas-Washing and Water-Washing of Oil Reservoirs by Fluorescence and Infrared Spectra of Single Oil Inclusion

Samples in the two oil fields with reported gas-washing and water-washing were collected for fluid inclusion analysis.Micro-fluorescence and Fourier infrared spectra of single oil inclusions were measured to study the different effects of gas-washing and water-washing on oil compositions.The results show that spectral parameter QF_(535)values of the oils altered by gas-washing were expanded toward decreasing and increasing,respectively.The CH_(2)/CH_(3)distribution range ratio does not expand significantly,but the peak values are averaged.And the distribution of H_(2)O/Alkanes has no change.The QF_(535)values of the oils affected by water-washing increased towards the increase direction,and the distribution ranges of both CH_(2)/CH_(3)and H_(2)O/Alkanes increase significantly.The changes of QF_(535)in light oil reservoirs altered by gas-washing and CH_(2)/CH_(3)in heavy oil reservoirs by water-washing are not obvious.Therefore,two spectral parameter distribution trend charts of light and heavy oil reservoirs are summarized to discriminate the gas-washing and water-washing processes.This study is of great practical significance to utilize fluid inclusion analysis to restructure stages and processes of petroleum accumulation.

Detection of Chlorpyrifos Residues in Akesu Red Fuji Apple based on Near Infrared Spectrum

[Objective] The paper was to explore a method for detecting chlorpyrifos residues in red Fuji apple. [Method] The original spectral data of apple samples sprayed with different volume fractions of chlorpyrifos were collected using near infrared spectrometer at the band of 4 000-10 000 cm^（-1）. The original spectra were pre-treated by a variety of methods, and partial least squares（PLS） model was established for predictive analysis. [Result] Near infrared spectrum showed sensitivity to apple samples sprayed with different volume fractions of chlorpyrifos, but had low precision on pesticide-free samples. Data of blank control group were further eliminated for modeling prediction. The results showed that the results were the best when pre-treated with first derivative（FD）： R=0.987 9; the square error of prediction（SEP） was 0.173 6; the root-mean-square error of cross-validation（RMSECV） was 0.120 5; and the precision was 0.923 4. [Conclusion] Near infrared spectrum can better predict chlorpyrifos residue, providing a new method for detecting chlorpyrifos residues in Akesu red Fuji apple.

After using the "Time-Frequency Relative Power Spectrum"( T-F RPS) method based on the China Geostationary Meteorological Satellite( FY-2 C/FY-2 E) infrared remote sensing brightness temperature data processing,we rapidly and accurately extracted and identified pre-earthquake thermal infrared anomalies for the April 16,2013 MW7. 8 of Khash,Iran Earthquake. Spatial evolution of anomalies showed the distribution and process. The anomalies were mainly distributed in the east of Khash,Iran. The characteristics of process and distribution presented X-Type model of NE and near NS strip which relates to the geological structure of this region. The epicenter was located near the intersection region of the X-Type abnormal migration process. Besides,the results of time series of anomalies showed that,the duration was more than 40 days and the maximum amplitude was about18 times. The earthquake occurred 20 days after the abnormal maximum amplitude which appeared on March 26,2013.

Signature of symmetry of laterally coupled quantum dots in far-infrared spectrum

We study the effect of structure asymmetry on the energy spectrum and the far-infrared spectrum （FIR） of a lateral coupled quantum dot. The calculated spectrum shows that the parity break of coupled quantum dot results in more coherent superpositions in the low-lying states and exhibits unique anti-crossing in the two-electron FIR spectrum modulated by a magnetic field. We also find that the Coulomb correlation effect can make the FIR spectrum of coupled quantum dot without strict parity deviate greatly from Kohn theorem, which is just contrary to the symmetric case. Our results therefore suggest that FIR spectrum may be used to determine the symmetry of coupled quantum dot and to evaluate the degree of Coulomb interaction.

Airborne Shortwave Infrared Spectral Remote Sensing as a Direct Prospecting Method for Oil and Gas Resources

The spectral characters of hydrocarbons in some oil-bearing strata and soil layers over oil and gas reservoirs in the Junggar Basin and northern Tarim Basin in Xinjiang are compared with those of chemically pure hydrocarbons. The hydrocarbons are characterized by the bi-absorption at 2310nm and 2350nm. Hydrocarbon and radioactive anomalies in oil and gas terrains are found much more widespread than carbonate altcrations. Based on the spectra of heavy hydrocarbons related to oil between 2270nm and 2460nm and refined data treatme nt, remote sensing may hold encouraging promise as a directly prospecting technique for oil and gas resources.

Effects of Size and Microstructures on Infrared Spectra of Pyrolusites

Nanofibrous pyrolusite （β-MnO2） was synthesized. The particle shape changes from nanofibers to nanoparticles after grinding, and the phase structure does not change. The local environment around the central manganese ion has a slight change in nanoparticles related to nanofibers. Fourier transform infrared （FTIR） spectra showed that A2u mode frequency shifts from 514 cm-1 to 574 cm-1 to 617 cm-1 gradually while the particle shape and size change from long nanofibers to short fibers and to nanoparticles. The extra vibrational band that is unpredicted by factor group analysis originates from the contribution of A2u mode of the particles with different sizes and shapes in the studied sample. On the basis of Rietveld refinement analysis of XRD profiles and the FTIR spectra, we think that two kinds of MnO6 octahedral geometries, i.e., 4 long＋2 short and 4 short＋2 long, could exist in pyrolusites synthesized by different route. The maximum vibrational frequency in the FTIR spectra of pyrolusites is sensitive to these micro-structures. Assignment of four vibrational bands in the middle and far infrared region has been made.

A New Temperature Channel Selection Method Based on Singular Spectrum Analysis for Retrieving Atmospheric Temperature Profiles from FY-4A/GIIRS

Hyperspectral data have important research and application value in the fields of meteorology and remote sensing.With the goal of improving retrievals of atmospheric temperature profiles,this paper outlines a novel temperature channel selection method based on singular spectrum analysis(SSA)for the Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder(GIIRS),which is the first infrared sounder operating in geostationary orbit.The method possesses not only the simplicity and rapidity of the principal component analysis method,but also the interpretability of the conventional channel selection method.The novel SSA method is used to decompose the GIIRS observed infrared brightness temperature spectrum(700-1130 cm-1),and the reconstructed grouped components can be obtained to reflect the energy variations in the temperature-sensitive waveband of the respective sequence.At 700-780 cm-1,the channels selected using our method perform better than IASI(Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer)and Cr IS(Cross-track Infrared Sounder)temperature channels when used as inputs to the neural network retrieval model.

Crystal microstructure, infrared absorption, and microwave electromagnetic properties of (La_(1-x)Dy_x)_(2/3)Sr_(1/3)MnO_3

The manganite perovskite polycrystal samples of （La1-xDyx）2/3Sr1/3MnO3 （x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.35, and 0.5） doped with Dy were prepared by solid state reaction in atmosphere to measure their X-ray diffraction （XRD） patterns, scanning electric microscope （SEM） images, infrared absorption spectra, and microwave electromagnetic properties. The displacement of the XRD peaks of the samples was found, and the 2θ increases from 0.05o to 0.5o. The grains of undoped La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 not only have the greatest size, but also the most regular shape. The size of the grains decreases as the Dy doping content increases from 0 to 0.5. The infrared absorption spectra of all samples were measured at room temperature. An absorption peak corresponding to the stretching vibration mode of Mn-O bonds appears within the range of 591-629 cm-1. The absorption peak shifts from a higher frequency to a lower one with the decrease of the average ionic radius of A-site. The frequency de- pendence of microwave-absorbing properties, imaginary components of the complex magnetic permeability μ＂ and dielectric permeability ε＂ for all samples was measured at room temperature from 8 to 13 GHz. The results show that the loss of microwave absorption can be attrib- uted to both the magnetic and electric losses. The increase of Dy content not only enhances the microwave absorption but also causes the displacement of the absorption peaks.

Infrared modeling and imaging simulation of midcourse ballistic targets based on strap-down platform

An infrared （IR） imaging simulation framework based on the strap-down platform is proposed for midcourse ballistic targets. It overcomes the shortcoming of the existing algorithms, which cannot simulate IR imaging from the entire midcourse process. The proposed framework includes three steps, target characteristic modeling, motion modeling, and imaging modeling. In imaging modeling, the staring focal plane is taken into account due to its wide employment. In order to obtain IR images of high fidelity, especially that the fluctuation of the target signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） is reasonably similar to the actual one, this paper proposes an improved IR imaging simulation method. The proposed method considers two critical factors of the pixel plane, occupy-empty ratio and defect elements, which affect the imaging of targets markedly but are neglected in previous work. Finally, the IR image sequence of high fidelity is obtained. And the correlative parameters of simulation can be set according to the given scene. Thus the generated images can satisfy the needs of algorithms validation for tracking and recognition.

Inspections of Mobile Phone Microwaves Effects on Proteins Secondary Structure by Means of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy

In this study the effects of microwaves on the secondary structure of three typical proteins have been investigated. A set of samples of lysozyme, bovine serum albumin and myoglobin in D2O solutions were exposed for 8 hours to mobile phone microwaves at 900 MHz at a magnetic field intensity around 16 mA/m. The relative effects on the secondary structure of the proteins were studied by means of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. An increase of the amide I band intensity in the secondary structure of the proteins was observed after the microwaves exposure. Furthermore, a weak shift of the amide I mode of bovine serum albumin and a heavier shift of the amide I of myoglobin occurred after the exposure. In addition, a clear increasing of the β-sheet components with respect to the α-helix content was observed in the spectra of bovine serum albumin and myoglobin after the exposure, suggesting the hypothesis of the formation of aggregates.
