Nondestructive damage assessment in fiber reinforced composites with the pulsed ultrasonic polar scan

This study investigates the use of both amplitude and time-of-flight based pulsed ultrasonic polar scan (P-UPS) as a sophisticated non-destructive damage sensor for fiber reinforced composites. Focus is put on stiffness related damage phenomena, which are in general difficult to monitor nondestructively, and their associated signature in the P-UPS image. Various composite samples, with different damage states, have been inspected at multiple material spots with the P-UPS technique. The results demonstrate the capability of the P-UPS method to obtain a unique signature of the local material damage characteristics. Several indicators in the acquired P-UPS images have been identified from which the type and level of material degradation can be obtained. The P-UPS extracted characteristics are fully supported by simulations, conventional tests as well as visual inspection.

Approximate expressions and the relationship between pyramidalization (out‐of‐plane deformation) characteristics of trigonal centers

Fairly accurate approximate expressions for commonly used characteristics of non‐planarity of trigonal sp²‐hybridized centers are reported. It is shown that the behavior of all these parameters as a function of bond angles (α, β, γ) is determined primarily by the square‐root of the difference [360° ? (α + β + γ)]. This quantity is proposed as a new versatile measure of pyramidalization. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Loop Groups and Twin Buildings

In these notes we describe some buildings related to complex Kac–Moody groups. First we describe the spherical building of SL_n() (i.e. the projective geometry PG(ⁿ)) and its Veronese representation. Next we recall the construction of the affine building associated to a discrete valuation on the rational function field (z). Then we describe the same building in terms of complex Laurent polynomials, and introduce the Veronese representation, which is an equivariant embedding of the building into an affine Kac–Moody algebra. Next, we introduce topological twin buildings. These buildings can be used for a proof which is a variant of the proof by Quillen and Mitchell, of Bott periodicity which uses only topological geometry. At the end we indicate very briefly that the whole process works also for affine real almost split Kac–Moody groups.Supported by a Heisenberg fellowship by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.     

Atmospheric,hydrological and oceanic comprehensive contributions to seasonal polar wobble of Earth Rotation

The geophysical quantitative excitation on seasonal polar wobble of Earth Rotation has not been well achieved so far. The atmospheric, hydrologic and oceanic angular momentum variations are investigated from monthly values simulated by a coupled ocean-atmosphere general circulation model. The simulated equatorial AAM functions agree well with that from the JMA operational analysis in 90°:E direction, but disagree along Greenwich meridian. As for the annual cycle, not only the hydrologic and oceanic excitations partly match the residuals between geodetic functions of polar wobble and JMA AAM functions, but also the combinations with NCEP and JMA analysis AAM functions are better than those estimated from NCAR-CSM1 climate model.

General radiation via tunneling in Kerr and Kerr-Newman black holes

Hawking radiation can be viewed as a process of quantum tunneling near the black hole horizon. When a particle with angular momentum L ≠ ωa tunnels across the event horizon of Kerr or Kerr-Newman black hole, the angular momentum per unit mass a should be changed. The emission rate of the massless particles under this general case is calculated, and the result is consistent with an underlying unitary theory.
