Distributed Measurement of Signal Power Evolution in a Phase Sensitive Parametric Amplifier

Luc Thévenaz, Camille Sophie Brès, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Fatemeh Alishahi, Andrey Denisov

A method to measure the signal power evolution along phase-sensitive parametric amplifiers is proposed using Brillouin optical time-domain analysis. Different evolutions along the fiber are reported by varying input wave phases, including amplification and ...

A further study on seismic response of a set of parallel rock fractures filled with viscoelastic materials

Jian Zhao, Wei Wu, Jianbo Zhu

The purpose of this study is to further investigate the seismic response of a set of parallel rock fractures filled with viscoelastic materials, following the work by Zhu et al. Dry quartz sands are used to represent the viscoelastic materials. The split H ...

Modelling and Optimal Design of a Ring-type Structure for the Generation of a Traveling Wave

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Dan Shi

Traveling wave generation in a ring type stator has been studied. The basic working principle to create traveling wave has been modelled by the superposition of two orthogonal standing waves. Theoretical analysis shows that the length to radius ratio affec ...

Fermi Nesting between Atomic Wires with Strong Spin-Orbit Coupling

Jan Hugo Dil

The mutual interplay between superlattice structures, band filling factors, and spin-orbit coupling results in a highly correlated electronic spin and charge state found for an array of atomic Pb wires grown on Si(557). By means of spin-and angle-resolved ...

Thermocouple Thermal Inertia Effects on Impingement Heat Transfer Experiments Using the Transient Liquid Crystal Technique

Peter Ott, Alexandros Terzis, Bernhard Weigand

The transient liquid crystal technique is widely used for impingement heat transfer experiments. Additionally, due to the difficulty of producing pure temperature steps in the flow, many authors assumed the fluid temperature evolution as a series of step c ...

Biologically inspired kinematic synergies enable linear balance control of a humanoid robot

Auke Ijspeert

Despite many efforts, balance control of humanoid robots in the presence of unforeseen external or internal forces has remained an unsolved problem. The difficulty of this problem is a consequence of the high dimensionality of the action space of a humanoi ...

Nonlinear phononic crystals based on chains of disks alternating with toroidal structures

Alessandro Spadoni

We study experimentally the acoustic response of a load-bearing, phononic crystal composed of alternating steel disks and polytetrafluoroethylene o-rings under precompression. The crystal allows for axial, rocking, and shear-polarized wavemodes when excite ...

Optimized Selection of Image Tiles for Ink Spreading Calibration

Roger Hersch, Thomas Bugnon

The Yule-Nielsen modified spectral Neugebauer model (YNSN) enables predicting reflectance spectra from ink surface coverages of halftones. In order to provide an improved prediction accuracy, this model is enhanced with an ink spreading model accounting fo ...

Effective Forces in Square Well and Square Shoulder Fluids

Giuseppe Foffi, Davide Fiocco

We derive an analytical expression for the effective force between a pair of macrospheres immersed in a sea of microspheres, in the case where the interaction between the two unlike species is assumed to be a square well or a square shoulder of given range ...
