Study of the Fermi surface of ZrB12 using the de Haas-van Alphen effect

The de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) effect in the cluster superconductor ZrB12 was studied by magnetic torque measurements in magnetic fields up to 28 T at temperatures down to 0.07 K. The dHvA oscillations due to orbits from the neck sections and "cubic box" of the Fermi surface were detected. The dHvA frequencies as well as the cyclotron effective masses were calculated using the full-potential linear muffin-tin orbitals method within the generalized gradient approximation. A comparison of the experimental and calculated cyclotron mass shows unusually large electron-phonon interaction on the neck (lambdaep=0.95) and box (lambdaep=1.07) sections of the Fermi surface on the Brillouin zone boundaries.     

模拟尾流泡幕及实际尾流光学性质对比研究

对模拟尾流泡幕及实际尾流光学性质进行了对比研究.结果表明,实验室模拟尾流气泡幕的散射光平均照度均值随着压强变化梯度大，可据此定性区别不同压强的气泡幕.实际尾流随着航速增大，散射光照度减小，但这种减小不是线性的.散射光照度一定周期性的规律，说明随着航速的增大，尾流气泡幕逐渐增强，气泡幕中气泡密度、不同直径气泡分布等均随之变化，这可能预示着气泡幕的增强存在饱和度.实验室模拟尾流气泡幕与实际尾流的散射光信号在轮廓方面是相似的，都随着压强或航速的增加而减小.通过比较实验室模拟气泡幕和实际尾流的差值信号，可以有效地消除杂散光或自然光的影响，利用Haar小波对差值信号的分析也得到相同的结论.

Active/robust moment controllers for seismic response control of a large span building on top of ship lift towers

The feasibility of using a vertical ship lift to provide a rapid transfer of ships over a large dam is being actively investigated in China. One of the problems encountered in the feasibility study is how to reduce excessive seismic response of a large span machinery building on the top of huge ship lift towers due to a whipping effect. This paper thus explores the possibility of using active/robust piezoelectric moment controllers to prevent the machinery building without/with parameter uncertainty from the whipping effect. The use of moment controllers meets the special space requirement for the machinery building. Basic equations for piezoelectric moment controllers interacting with the building are first derived. The active control of seismic response of the building-ship lift tower system with moment controllers is then presented. The robust moment controllers for the building-ship lift tower system with structural uncertainty are finally addressed. By taking an actual large ship lift structure to be built in China as example, the effectiveness of the proposed moment controllers and the behavior of the controlled ship lift structure are examined. The results show that the active moment controllers can effectively prevent the whipping effect and reduce the seismic response of the building. In the presence of structural uncertainty, the robust moment controllers give superior performance to the active moment controllers but require larger control power.     

Analysis on spatial difference of ocean ambient noise spectrum in the northern South China Sea

To study the spatial difference of ocean ambient noise in offshore China and reveal its generation mechanism, the difference between the noise level(NL) of two stations is compared based on long-term observation data collected in the same season. Considering the influence of underwater acoustic channels and the characteristics of noise sources, the transmission loss level(TL) from the port ship noise sources to the measuring station is analyzed and it shows a strong correlation between the transmission loss difference(TLD) and noise level difference(NLD) at the band of 50-500 Hz. At the same time, the analysis of ship noise source level(SL) presents a difference about 20 dB between the two ports, corresponding to the variation of the ship density before and during the fishing moratorium. The results prove that the ambient noise is closely related to ship noise sources at this frequency band, and the noise difference between the two stations results from the transmission loss and the ship noise sources.     

Acoustical measurements of expression devices in pipe organs

In this investigation, three different swell systems known in pipe organs, the swell box, the crescendo wheel, and the historic wind swell were measured and compared to each other. The dynamic range of the crescendo wheel was found to be most effective, and for frequencies near 2 kHz the increase in sound pressure level could be up to 50 dB between the softest and the loudest adjustment. The maximum dynamic range for the wind swell and the swell box were found to be 10-20 dB in the same frequency range. With its step-wise crescendo procedure, the crescendo wheel simulates the type of orchestra crescendo which is reached by successively adding further musical instruments. In contrast, the swell box and the wind swell produce a crescendo effect similar to the crescendo in which individual musical instruments perform a dynamic movement. This type of crescendo requires a continuous level increase but allows a smaller dynamic range. The disappearance of the wind swell is not surprising because it offers no advantage over the swell box, while being restricted to stops with free reeds.

Duration discrimination of steady and gliding tones: a new method for estimating sensitivity to rate of change

Thresholds for the detection of differences in duration were measured in a two-alternative, forced-choice task for four types of signals, all centered at 2000 Hz: (1) sinusoids fixed in frequency and level; (2) sinusoids of fixed frequency whose level was swept up or down by 5 or 10 dB; (3) sinusoids of fixed level whose frequency was swept up or down by 100 Hz; and (4) sinusoids whose level was swept up or down by 10 dB and whose frequency was swept up or down by 100 Hz. For types (2)-(4), the direction of the sweeps was fixed within a run. The duration of the standard was either fixed at 750 ms or was varied randomly from trial to trial by up to +/- 7% about 750 ms. The duration of the comparison signal was initially 100 ms greater than that of the standard and was varied adaptively to determine threshold. The pattern of results was similar for all four subjects tested. Duration-discrimination thresholds for the signals that were swept in level and/or frequency were lower than those for the fixed signal, typically by 15-20 ms. This indicates that subjects were sensitive to the rate of change of frequency and/or level and could use this as a cue for duration discrimination. The Weber fraction for rate of change was estimated to be about 0.05-0.06 and was similar for changes in level and in frequency.

An ensemble source spectra model for merchant ship-radiated noise

This paper presents an evaluation of the classical model for determining an ensemble of the broadband source spectra of the sound generated by individual ships and proposes an alternate model to overcome the deficiencies in the classical model. The classical model, proposed by Ross [Mechanics of Underwater Noise (Pergamon, New York, 1976)] postulates that the source spectrum for an individual ship is proportional to a baseline spectrum with the constant of proportionality determined by a power-law relationship on the ship speed and length. The model evaluation, conducted on an ensemble of 54 source spectra over a 30-1200-Hz to 1200-Hz frequency band, shows that this assumption yields large rms errors in the broadband source level for the individual ships and significantly overestimates the variability in the source level across the ensemble of source spectra. These deficiencies are a consequence of the negligible correlation between the source level and the ship speed and the source level and the ship length. The alternate model proposed here represents the individual ship spectra by a modified rational spectrum where the poles and zeros are restricted to the real axis and the exponents of the terms are not restricted to integer values. An evaluation of this model on the source spectra ensemble indicates that the rms errors are significantly less than those obtained with any model where the frequency dependence is represented by a single baseline spectrum. Furthermore, at high frequencies (400 to 1200 Hz), a single-term rational spectrum model is sufficient to describe the frequency dependence and, at the low frequencies (30 to 400 Hz), there is only a modest reduction in the rms error for a higher order model. Finally, a joint probability density on the two parameters of the single term model based on the measured histograms of these parameters is proposed. This probability density provides a mechanism for generating an ensemble of ship spectra.

核医疗船的概念是在现有微堆(MNSR)技术的基础上提出的,它基于IAEA的癌症关怀项目,开发配备硼中子俘获治疗技术(BNCT)的远洋核医疗船,该项目开辟核科技应用的新领域。核医疗船的反应堆设计参考了已建成的医院中子照射器-1型(IHNI-1)反应堆,该堆采用重混凝土作为主要屏蔽材料,水池为方形,其体积和质量都很大,不能满足船用要求。为了使反应堆能够满足船用要求,使用蒙特卡罗方法对医院中子照射器的反应堆屏蔽系统进行重新设计和优化,通过对多个方案的综合对比,最终确定采用不锈钢、含硼聚乙烯为屏蔽材料,并将水池设计成结构紧凑的圆柱形结构,该屏蔽方案在保证安全的基础上,使屏蔽系统的质量和体积大大降低,满足了船用要求。     

等离子体介质阻挡放电氟化改性环氧树脂的时效性

等离子体对材料的改性效果随放置时间会有所减弱,即表现出一定的时效性,限制了等离子体改性技术的进一步发展。为了探究等离子体介质阻挡放电（DBD）氟化改性环氧树脂的时效性,利用等离子体介质阻挡放电实现了环氧树脂表面氟化改性,并利用扫描电镜（SEM）、表面轮廓仪、X射线光电子能谱分析（XPS）、接触角测试仪、高阻计和闪络电压、表面电位测试系统对改性前和改性后放置在25 ℃老化箱中0～30 d的环氧树脂表面进行了物理形貌和化学组分的表征以及电气性能的测试。测试结果表明,DBD氟化改性实现了氟元素在环氧树脂表面接枝,这使得环氧树脂表面能降低,表面电阻率减小,陷阱能级变浅,从而加快了表面电位衰减速度,进而提升了沿面闪络电压。同时,等离子体DBD氟化改性环氧树脂表现出一定的时效性,放置30 d后,氟元素含量减少,表面能增大,表面电位衰减速度略有减慢,闪络电压也有所下降,但仍高于未处理的试样。     

Adaptive staircase techniques in psychoacoustics: a comparison of human data and a mathematical model

Data from a simple tone-in-noise simultaneous masking task were used to evaluate each of two common adaptive staircase rules (a "1 up 2 down" rule and a "1 up 3 down" rule) and the parameter estimation by sequential testing (PEST) technique in combination with each of two psychophysical procedures [a two-alternative forced-choice (2AFC) and a three-alternative forced-choice (3AFC) procedure]. These human data were compared to predictions generated by a mathematical model based on Markov theory. The model predicts that threshold estimates obtained with the adaptive techniques should be equal to those derived with equivalent "fixed signal level" techniques. However, the human data indicate that the adaptive techniques tend to yield lower thresholds. The model predicts that the standard error of a threshold estimate obtained from an adaptive technique will decrease and approach zero as the number of trials used to compute the estimate increases. The human data show greater variability than predicted and approach a nonzero value as the number of trials increases. The predictions of the model suggest that the commonly used combination of the 2AFC procedure and the 1 up 2 down rule is the least efficient method of estimating a threshold and that the 3AFC procedure in combination with the 1 up 3 down rule is the most efficient method. The human data are less consistent, but generally show the combination of the 2AFC procedure and the 1 up 2 down rule to be one of the least efficient methods. Possible explanations for the differences between the model's predictions and the human data, as well as suggestions for laboratory practice, are discussed.     

Directionality and maneuvering effects on a surface ship underwater acoustic signature

This work examines underwater source spectra of a small (560 tons, 40 m length), single-screw oceanographic vessel, focusing on directionality and effects of maneuvers. The measurements utilized a set of four, self-contained buoys with GPS positioning, each recording two calibrated hydrophones with effective acoustic bandwidth from 150 Hz to 5 kHz. In straight, constant-speed runs at speeds up to 6.2 m s(-1), the ship source spectra showed spectral levels in reasonable agreement with reference spectra. The broadband source level was observed to increase as approximately speed to the fourth power over the range of 2.6-6.1 m s(-1), partially biased at low speeds by nonpropulsion machinery signals. Source directionality patterns were extracted from variations in source spectra while the ship transited past the buoy field. The observed spectral source levels exhibited a broadside maximum, with bow and stern aspect reduced by approximately 12-9 dB, respectively, independent of frequency. An empirical model is proposed assuming that spectral source levels exhibit simultaneous variations in aspect angle, speed, and turn rate. After correction for source directionality and speed during turning maneuvers, an excess of up to 18 dB in one-third octave source levels was observed.
