Fracture evolution and localization effect of damage in rock based on wave velocity imaging technology

By utilizing wave velocity imaging technology,the uniaxial multi-stage loading test was conducted on siltstone to attain wave velocity imagings during rock fracture.Based on the time series parameters of acoustic emissions(AE),joint response characteristics of the velocity field and AE during rock fracture were analyzed.Moreover,the localization effect of damage during rock fracture was explored by applying wave velocity imagings.The experimental result showed that the wave velocity imagings enable three-dimensional(3-D)visualization of the extent and spatial position of damage to the rock.A damaged zone has a low wave velocity and a zone where the low wave velocity is concentrated tends to correspond to a severely damaged zone.AE parameters and wave velocity imagings depict the changes in activity of cracks during rock fracture from temporal and spatial perspectives,respectively:the activity of cracks is strengthened,and the rate of AE events increases during rock fracture;correspondingly,the low-velocity zones are gradually aggregated and their area gradually increases.From the wave velocity imagings,the damaged zones in rock were divided into an initially damaged zone,a progressively damaged zone,and a fractured zone.During rock fracture,the progressively damaged zone and the fractured zone both develop around the initially damaged zone,showing a typical localization effect of the damage.By capturing the spatial development trends of the progressively damaged zone and fractured zone in wave velocity imagings,the development of microfractures can be predicted,exerting practical significance for determining the position of the main fracture.

Status Quo and Prospect of Millimeter Wave RoF Communication Technology

The optical communication technology features low cost,wide band,low loss,and anti-electromagnetic interference performance.By combining the optical communication technology with the radio millimeter wave communication system,the Millimeter Wave Radio over Fiber (MM-RoF) system boasts a lot of advantages,including wide band,small size,light weight,low cost,low loss,and resistance of electromagnetic interference as well as high transmission quality.The MM-RoF technology solves the problems faced by traditional microwave transmission system at the millimeter wave band,namely,high loss and inability to resist interference efficiently.Meanwhile,it puts an end to the bottleneck of millimeter wave electronic devices and thus is deemed as with great potentials.The MM-ROF technology that supports multiple formats and services signifies one of the significant trends for future development of the MM-RoF system.

Detection technique of moving target based on passive millimeter wave

To solve the problem of insufficient ability when detecting the high-speed moving target with passive millimeter wave technology, a direct-detection passive millimeter wave detecting system using the monolithic microwave integrated cir- cuit （MMIC） millimeter wave radiometer is built, and the measured data are obtained by experiment under different condi- tions. Based on feature analysis of testing signals, it points out that the peak of the first pulse and interval of two peak pulses are valid features which can reflect the motion characteristic of target. A method to calculate the moving speed of target is put forward. The calculating results indicate that the proposed method has enough accuracy and is feasible to determine the parameters of the moving target using for passive millimeter wave system.

Three-dimensional display technologies in wave and ray optics: a review(Invited Paper)

Multiple three-dimensional （3D） display technologies are reviewed. The display mechanisms discussed in this paper are classified into two categories： holographic display in wave optics and light field display in ray optics, which present the 3D optical wave field in two different ways. Key technical characteristics of the optical systems and the depth cues of human visual system are analyzed. It is to be expected that these 3D display technologies will achieve practical applications with the increase of the optical system bandwidth.
