Experimental assessment of a multicarrier underwater acoustic communication system

This paper presents a multicarrier communication system which transmits information on independent subcarriers to achieve an increased data rate. For this system, a passive-phase conjugation (PPC) based receiver structure is assessed by processing data collected in sea trials. Based on temporal diversity (pulse compression) exploited by PPC processing, an adaptive multichannel decision feedback equalizer is used to remove intersymbol interference, where spatial diversity is exploited by adaptive multichannel combination. The digital phase-locked loop (DPLL) technique is implemented for carrier-phase tracking. In the scenario of low input signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), the receiver structure achieved superior performance using a common DPLL. In a depth-fluctuated environment, two sea experiments were conducted over ranges of 2 km and 4 km, respectively, and this communication system was assessed with a data rate of 4 kbps. In terms of mean square error, output SNR and bit error rate, this receiver structure has demonstrated its performance for the multicarrier communication system.     

Potential solutions to improved sound performance of volume based lightweight multi-storey timber buildings

Lightweight building systems in general suffer from poor sound insulation, especially in the low frequency region. Since no reliable mathematical models that can predict the impact sound pressure level exists, the lightweight building design is to a high extent based upon previous experience and upon measurements. A special difficulty is related to experimental measurements since the variation among identical units must not be neglected. A modern volume based lightweight wooden building concept has here been tested by numerous well controlled measurements, in laboratory as well as in more field like conditions. The volume construction technique offers new possibilities and challenges to improve sound insulation in light weight timber construction. The main purpose was to investigate how different constructional solutions in the floor, like plaster board, mineral wool, elastic glue, dividing board, floating floor etc., affect the sound insulation. Many of the tested modifications resulted in only marginally changed impact sound pressure level but parameters that substantially can improve the sound insulation were found in using elastic glue to mount the floor boards, to install extra board layers and to use floating floors.     

Effects of the piezoelectric field on the modulation of exciton–polaritons by surface acoustic waves

Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) provide a powerful tool for the modulation of polaritons in GaAs-based microcavities. In this contribution, we compare the modulation introduced by SAWs propagating along piezoelectric and non-piezoelectric crystal directions of the sample surface. Strain calculations reveal that the type-I band-gap modulation induced by the strain field is comparable for both SAW types. Piezoelectric SAWs have, however, an intrinsic longitudinal electric field, which can dissociate quantum well (QW) excitons and, thus, degrade the modulation. Images of the polariton far-field photoluminescence reveal this behavior for different excitation conditions.     

全息声压场的加权范数外推方法

全息声压外推是Patch近场声全息技术的关键步骤.本文提出了全息声压的加权范数外推方法,该方法首先通过实测声压数据的功率谱信息构造频域加权范数,然后通过极小化频域加权范数实现全息声压外推.由于外推过程中同时利用了声压信号的波数域带宽和波数谱形状信息,因此其外推结果优于传统带限外推方法.数值仿真结果表明,该方法无论在外推精度还是计算效率上都明显优于经典的全息声压波数域外推方法.刚性箱体上的声激励固支板声压外推实验进一步验证了该方法的有效性和实用性. 关键词： 近场声全息 全息声压外推 加权范数

Measurements of degree of sensitization (DoS) in aluminum alloys using EMAT ultrasound

Sensitization in 5XXX aluminum alloys is an insidious problem characterized by the gradual formation and growth of beta phase (Mg₂Al₃) at grain boundaries, which increases the susceptibility of alloys to intergranular corrosion (IGC) and intergranular stress-corrosion cracking (IGSCC). The degree of sensitization (DoS) is currently quantified by the ASTM G67 Nitric Acid Mass Loss Test, which is destructive and time consuming. A fast, reliable, and non-destructive method for rapid detection and the assessment of the condition of DoS in AA5XXX aluminum alloys in the field is highly desirable. In this paper, we describe a non-destructive method for measurements of DoS in aluminum alloys with an electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT). AA5083 aluminum alloy samples were sensitized at 100 °C with processing times varying from 7 days to 30 days. The DoS of sensitized samples was first quantified with the ASTM 67 test in the laboratory. Both ultrasonic velocity and attenuation in sensitized specimens were then measured using EMAT and the results were correlated with the DoS data. We found that the longitudinal wave velocity was almost a constant, independent of the sensitization, which suggests that the longitudinal wave can be used to determine the sample thickness. The shear wave velocity and especially the shear wave attenuation are sensitive to DoS. Relationships between DoS and the shear velocity, as well as the shear attenuation have been established. Finally, we performed the data mining to evaluate and improve the accuracy in the measurements of DoS in aluminum alloys with EMAT.     

Estimation of anharmonic parameters, molecular radius, Mr and Beyer's non-linearity parameter, B/A in TBnA series

The thermodynamic parameters like Moelwyn-Hughes parameter (C₁), reduced molar volume (V^~), isochoric temperature coefficient of internal pressure (X), Huggin's parameter (F), Gruneisen parameter (Γ_p), isothermal microscopic Gruneisen parameter, Sharma parameter (S_o), fraction free volume (f) and (A^?) a dimensionless thermal parameter, etc and the Beyer's nonlinearity parameter (B/A) were deduced employing the thermal expansion coefficient derived from density data for the homologues series of compounds terephthalyidene-bis-p-n-alkyl anilines, TBnA with n = 5 to 10,12,14,16 and 18. Further, it is found that the variation of molecular radius, M_r increases with the increase of alkyl chain number, with a core radius of 4.78 Å and the increment for methylene unit is 0.086 Å . The results were discussed with the body of the data available.     

Partial molar adiabatic compressibilities of transfer of some amino acids from water to aqueous lactose solutions at different temperatures

Apparent molar adiabatic compressibilities (K_{?, s}) of glycine, L-alanine, L-valine, and L-leucine have been determined in aqueous and mixed aqueous solutions of lactose (2 to 6 mass%) at T = (293.15, 298.15, 303.15, and 308.15) K. From these data partial molar adiabatic compressibilities at infinite dilution (K_{?, s}⁰) have been evaluated to calculate corresponding transfer function. The transfer partial molar adiabatic compressibilities at infinite dilution (ΔK_{?, s}⁰) are found to be positive. The decrease in the magnitude of transfer partial molar adiabatic compressibilities from glycine to L-leucine indicates the dominance of hydrophobic-hydrophobic interactions between the increasing side chains of amino acids. Also, the contributions of NH₃⁺COO⁻ , and CH₂ groups have been calculated by the linear correlation of K_{?, s}⁰ with number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chain of amino acids.     

地铁沿线建筑内噪声多维度感受影响机制

随着城市铁路系统的快速发展,铁路沿线建筑内人群对地铁运行产生噪声的抱怨逐渐增多,为控制室内地铁噪声对人群所产生的负面影响,有必要对地铁噪声产生的多维度负面情绪进行评估。采集了79名受试者对建筑内地铁噪声的多维度负面感受(压抑感,不舒适度和不满意度),基于偏最小二乘法分析了主客观影响因素对多维度负面感受的作用机制,并比较了多维度负面感受在反映地铁噪声影响上的差异。结果表明,多维度负面感受主要取决于主观响度和声学参数,活动干扰度、地铁噪声的敏感度、厌烦度和适应性的影响明显更弱;3个多维度负面感受中,相比于压抑感,不舒适度和不满意度受主观响度的影响轻微更显著,在相同的主观响度感受下,不满意度等级最高。 该文可以为地铁沿线建筑物内噪声负面感受的评价和改善提供参考。
