COMPARISON BETWEEN TWO ANALYTICAL MODELS OF HELICOPTER GROUND RESONANCE

The 2-dimensional equivalent model used in helicopter ground resonance analysis is convenient for its simplicity and clarity. The equivalent body mass, the stiffness and the damping are derived from the modal charaCteristics. In this paper, a 3-dimensional space model is constructed to analyse the ground resonance.There is little difference between the calculated results of the 2-dimensional equivalent model and those of the 3-dimensional space model. Hence, the 2-dimensional model is verified for the practical application. Generally, the linear lead-lag damping of the equivalent rotor blade at the modal frequency is derived from the lead-lag damper characteristics by a procedure of iteration. The transformation of the imaginary part of the complex modulus of the viscoelastic damper into a linear velocity damping is complicated in analysis. A method to use the complex modulus directly in the ground resonance analysis is derived and verified.

Non-Metric CCD Camera Calibration Algorithm in a Digital Photogrammetry System

Camera calibration is a critical process in photogrammetry and a necessary step to acquire 3D information from a 2D image. In this paper, a flexible approach for CCD camera calibration using 2D direct linear transformation （DLT） and bundle adjustment is proposed. The proposed approach assumes that the camera interior orientation elements are known, and addresses a new closed form solution in planar object space based on homogenous coordinate representation and matrix factorization. Homogeneous coordinate representation offers a direct matrix correspondence between the parameters of the 2D DLT and the collinearity equation. The matrix factorization starts by recovering the elements of the rotation matrix and then solving for the camera position with the collinearity equation. Camera calibration with high precision is addressed by bundle adjustment using the initial values of the camera orientation elements. The results show that the calibration precision of principal point and focal length is about 0.2 and 0.3 pixels respectivelv, which can meet the requirements of close-range photogrammetry with high accuracy.

Audio steganalysis based on “negative resonance phenomenon” caused by steganographic tools

Researching on the impact different steganographic software tools have audio statistical features, revealed the phe- nomenon that when messages are embedded in a WAV file by using a certain tool, the variation of statistical features in the WAV file which already contains messages embedded by the same tool is abruptly smaller than those in which messages have not been embedded. We call it “negative resonance phenomenon” temporarily. With the phenomenon above and Support Vector Machines (SVMs), we can detect the existence of hidden messages, and also identify the tools used to hide them. As shown by the experi- mental results, the proposed method can be very effectively used to detect hidden messages embedded by Hide4PGP, Stegowav and S-Tools4.

Effect of Si content on laser welding performance of Al-Mn-Mg alloy

The correlation between Si content （0.1%-0.5%, mass fraction） and pulse laser welding performance of AI-Mn-Mg aluminum alloy sheets was studied. The sheets were fabricated in the laboratory, with gauge of 0.45 mm, H16 temper by pulse laser welding. It was found that no cracking existed in the welding pool as Si content was below 0.34%. However, when the Si content increased to 0.47%, cracking formed in the welding pool. Microstructure observations indicated that residual eutectic phases distributed at the grain boundaries were discontinuous and appeared to be small particles in lower Si content alloys; the residual eutectic phases distributed at the grain boundaries were partially continuous and appeared to be films in higher Si content alloys. These phenomena could explain why Si content adversely affected the laser welding performance.

Teleportation of N-qubit W State without Bell-State Measurement via Selective Resonant Interaction in Cavity QED

We present a scheme in which the N-atom W state is teleported by employing the selective interactionof a cavity field with a driven three-level atom in the A configuration and detecting a single atom in one of the groundstates.The long-lived W state is teleported from atom A to atom B when the atoms B and A are sent through acavity successively and atom A is then detected.The advantage is that the present one does not involve the Bell-statemeasurement and is robust against the atomic spontaneous emission.

Reexamining Security of Improved Multiparty Quantum Secret Splitting and Quantum State Sharing

In a recent letter [H.F. Wang, X. Ji, and S. Zhang, Phys. Lett. A 358 （2006） 11], an improvement of the multiparty quantum secret splitting and quantum state sharing protocol [F.G. Deng, et al., Phys. Lett. A 354 （2006） 190.] was presented. We study the security of the improved protocol and find that two or more dishonest participants may recover the secret from the dealer. Hence we further modify the improved protocol, which make it stand against this kind of attack.

Conformal Invariance and Noether Symmetry, Lie Symmetry of Birkhoffian Systems in Event Space

This paper focuses on studying a conformal invariance and a Noether symmetry, a Lie symmetry for a Birkhoffian system in event space. The definitions of the conformal invariance of the system are given. By investigation on the relations between the conformal invariance and the Noether symmetry, the conformal invariance and the Lie symmetry, the expressions of conformal factors of the system under these circumstances are obtained. The Noether conserved quantities and the Hojman conserved quantities directly derived from the conformal invariance are given. Two examples are given to illustrate the application of the results.

Finally,a three-dimension (3D) local yield map of layered surface is introduced,which is useful to predict the possible contact mechanisms.

Measurement and correlation of physical properties of aqueous solutions of tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, piperazine and their aqueous blends

The density,viscosity and refractive index of aqueous solutions of tetrabutylammonium hydroxide(TBAOH),piperazine(PZ) and their aqueous blends are determined at several temperatures(303.15 to 333.15 K).All these measured physicochemical properties decreases with an increase in temperature.The density data is used to calculate the coefficient of thermal expansion and excess molar volume of all aqueous binary and ternary solutions.The coefficient of thermal expansion increases with increase in temperatures and concentrations.The negativity of excess molar volume for all the aqueous solution decreased with increase in temperature.Each physical property is correlated with temperature by least square method and the corresponding coefficients for each property are presented.The prediction values from correlations for the physical properties are in good agreement with the experimental values.

Study of Nonpolaritons in a Kerr Nonlinear Optical Resonator

We find that in a Kerr nonlinear optical resonator, the photon system possesses a new kind of quasiparticle, the nonpolariton. The existence of nonpolaritons should be testified by observing the energy density dependence of the velocity and squeezing of nonpolaritons. As we have investigated, the transition energy density of a Kerr nonlinear optical resonator is larger than that of a normal state.

Corresponding Factors Influencing Crude Oils Assay Using Low-field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

In this study, the main factors influencing the measurements by means of the off-line low-field 1H NMR in the lab were discussed base on a robust calibration model established by the PLS algorithm using 255 crude oil samples. The preheating temperature had a great influence on the viscosity of oil samples and the resolution of spectral analysis. The repeatability of spectral measurements was impacted by the metal and wax content of the oil samples. For the case of high wax content oils, the wax species began to crystallize in the course of determination that could affect the repeatability of spectral measurements. These factors have evidenced why the preheating devices and filter unit are necessary when low field NMR system is used in the online analysis process. The investigation is very important for the on-line application of the low field NMR.

Agility evaluation in public sector

Agility metrics are difficult to define in general, mainly due to the multidimensionality and vagueness of the concept of agility itself. In this paper, a knowledge-based framework is utilized for the measurement and assessment of public sector＇s agility by A. T. Kearney model. In this research, the authors used Z2 test in SPSS software. So, the authors discovered that the General Office of Standards ＆ Industrial Research of Sistan ＆ Baluchestan Province in Iran is agile. Finally, the authors determine the weakness points of organization by Friedman test.

MRI can reveal metabolic changes in lily bulbs in vivo during dormancy release

The factors influencing dormancy release in lily bulbs strongly affect commercialization success, but the mechanism of dormancy release is still unclear. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can detect changes in morphology and water status in a living plant bulb and aid in investigating release factors. To evaluate whether MRI could be used to detect intra-bulb metabolic changes during the dormant period in Oriental Lilies (Lilium 'Sorbonne'), a series of MRI and sugar concentration measurements were performed weekly on bulbs stored for 11 weeks at 4°C. The image quality of intra-bulb structure obtained using T 1-weighted imaging was superior to that obtained using T 2 -weighted imaging and had a higher signal-to-noise ratio (0.97±0.01). Magnetization transfer ratio values for the bud and basal plate declined during the first eight weeks of cold storage (P>0.05), and were well correlated with concentration of soluble sugar in the bud (R 2 =0.95) and basal plate (R 2 =0.93). Thus, MRI can serve as a valuable tool for observation and analysis of dynamic morphological and metabolic changes in vivo during dormancy release. This information is potentially useful as a guide in the improvement of horticultural product quality.

Optimal four-impulse rendezvous between coplanar elliptical orbits

Rendezvous in circular or near circular orbits has been investigated in great detail, while rendezvous in arbitrary eccentricity elliptical orbits is not sufficiently explored. Among the various optimization methods proposed for fuel optimal orbital rendezvous, Lawden＇s primer vector theory is favored by many researchers with its clear physical concept and simplicity in solu- tion. Prussing has applied the primer vector optimization theory to minimum-fuel, multiple-impulse, time-fixed orbital ren- dezvous in a near circular orbit and achieved great success. Extending Prussing＇s work, this paper will employ the primer vec- tor theory to study trajectory optimization problems of arbitrary eccentricity elliptical orbit rendezvous. Based on linearized equations of relative motion on elliptical reference orbit （referred to as T-H equations）, the primer vector theory is used to deal with time-fixed multiple-impulse optimal rendezvous between two coplanar, coaxial elliptical orbits with arbitrary large ec- centricity. A parameter adjustment method is developed for the prime vector to satisfy the Lawden＇s necessary condition for the optimal solution. Finally, the optimal multiple-impulse rendezvous solution including the time, direction and magnitudes of the impulse is obtained by solving the two-point boundary value problem. The rendezvous error of the linearized equation is also analyzed. The simulation results confirmed the analyzed results that the rendezvous error is small for the small eccentric- ity case and is large for the higher eccentricity. For better rendezvous accuracy of high eccentricity orbits, a combined method of multiplier penalty function with the simplex search method is used for local optimization. The simplex search method is sensitive to the initial values of optimization variables, but the simulation results show that initial values with the primer vector theory, and the local optimization algorithm can improve the rendezvous accuracy effectively with fast convergence, because the optimal results obtained by the primer vector theory are already very close to the actual optimal solution.

Scalar Resonance at 750 GeV as Composite of Heavy Vector-Like Fermions

We study a model of scalars which includes both the SM Higgs and a scalar singlet as composites of heavy vector-like fermions. The vector-like fermions are bounded by the super-strong four-fermion interactions. The scalar singlet decays to SM vector bosons through loop of heavy vector-like fermions. We show that the surprisingly large production cross section of di-photon events at 750 GeV resonance and the odd decay properties can all be explained.This model serves as a good model for both SM Higgs and a scalar resonance at 750 GeV.

Preparation and optical properties of GaSb nanoparticles embedded in SiO_2 composite films

The composite films of GaSb nanoparticles embedded in SiO2 matrices were fabricated by radio-frequency magnetron co-sputtering. Transmission electron microscope and X-ray diffraction pattern indicate that the GaSb nanoparticles were uniformly dispersed in SiO2 matrices. Room temperature transmission spectra exhibit a blue shift of about 2.73 eV. The blue shift increases with decreasing size of GaSb nanoparticles, suggesting the existence of quantum size effects. Room temperature Raman spectra show that there is a larger Raman peak red shift and broadening of the composite films than that of bulk GaSb. This phenomenon is explained by photon confinement effect and tensile stress effect.
