Measurement of subpicosecond optical waveforms using a resonator-based phase modulator

We propose a method for the measurement of periodic optical waveforms based on the use of an electrooptic phase modulator placed in an optical Fabry-Perot or ring resonator. Significant broadening of the modulation spectrum extends the recently developed method of periodic modulation for pulse characterization into femtosecond scales. We numerically demonstrate the characterization of a 300-fs optical pulse. We also present a technique based on the temporal fractional Talbot effect for restoration of the pulse phase profile. After fast linear processing, subpicosecond pulses will be observed on the screen of a real-time oscilloscope. This complete characterization of optical pulses is entirely linear and therefore highly sensitive and simple in implementation.     

Distributed strain measurement using a tellurite glass fiber with Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry

A tellurite glass fiber with a high Brillouin gain was employed for distributed strain measurement with Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry (BOCDR). First, the spatial resolution of BOCDR was evaluated using the tellurite fiber. With the high Brillouin gain of the fiber, it was confirmed clearly in the experiment that the spatial resolution is limited by the Rayleigh scattering-induced noise. Then, the dependence of the Brillouin frequency shift (BFS) on strain in the tellurite fiber was investigated, showing a negative dependence with a coefficient of −0.023 MHz/με. Using this tellurite fiber, the distribution of the BFS around a 1-cm strain-applied section was successfully measured with BOCDR of a nominal spatial resolution of 6 mm.     

Interpolation algorithm for recovering the missing phase values in 3D measurement

In the three-dimensional (3D) phase measurement, some marks are usually adhered to the object in order to make the 3D registration process faster and easier. As covered with marks, local phase data are missing and have to be interpolated later. Considering the phase distribution nearby the marks, a gradient estimate (GE) interpolation algorithm is provided here. This algorithm recovers one pixel's missing phase value with the average of the estimated values which is calculated by gradients in eight directions nearby. Since this algorithm is a local processing, the missing phase values should be interpolated from the edge of the marks to the center. In the computer simulation and the practical experiment, compared with the same-size neighborhood mean (NM) algorithm and the Gerchberg-Saxton (GS) algorithm, this new algorithm achieves very good fit results with the least time. So it can be used as a practical tool for automatic missing phase interpolation.     

ZnS thin film deposited with chemical bath deposition process directed by different stirring speeds

In this combined film thickness, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction and optical properties study, we explore the effects of different stirring speeds on the growth and optical properties of ZnS film deposited by CBD method. From the disclosed changes of thickness of ZnS film, we conclude that film thickness is independent of the stirring speeds in the heterogeneous process (deposition time less than 40 min), but increases with the stirring speeds and/or deposition time increasing in the homogeneous process. Grazing incident X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) and the study of optical properties disclosed that the ZnS films grown with different stirring speeds show partially crystallized film and exhibit good transmittance (70-88% in the visible region), but the stirring speeds cannot give much effects on the structure and optical properties in the homogeneous process.     

基于路网的电动汽车快速充电站布局决策研究

大力发展和推广纯电动汽车已成为全世界众多国家的共同选择。但电动汽车有限的续航能力及公共快速充电设施的缺乏,制约着人们的使用和长途出行。本研究针对我国公共快速充电网络建设亟待完善的问题,基于我国主干高速公路网络,对服务途中充电需求的快速充电站科学分布问题建立分布决策模型。研究表明,对续航能力低于200公里的电动汽车,应用最优策略分布的快速充电站数量从50座增加到250座时,可将途中充电需求覆盖率从50%左右提高到90%以上,而对续航能力超过250公里的电动汽车,150座按最优策略分布的快速充电站即能覆盖至少96.49%的途中充电需求。通过对不同续航能力和不同充电站数量约束下共30种情形的分析,本研究不仅能为多情形下充电站分布问题提供最优选址和数量组合决策方案,也为我国充电基础设施的完善及电动汽车产业可持续发展提供有力的理论支持和政策建议。     

市场机制和政府监管下新能源汽车产业合作创新演化博弈研究

节能和新能源汽车是解决能源、气候和环境问题的关键措施,越来越受各国政府的重视。本文基于演化博弈理论,从市场机制和政府监管两个方面分析了政产学研新能源汽车合作创新行为,首先通过建立博弈模型观察多个利益相关者的合作创新行为;再根据复制动态方程和演化稳定策略分析影响合作创新活动的动力因素。为验证理论计算的有效性进行了数值仿真,结果表明:在市场机制下政府补贴、违约金和收益分配系数对企业和学研机构开展新能源汽车合作创新的驱动效果明显,但作用机制不同;在政府监管下合理税率、行政处罚有利于促进新能源汽车合作创新的稳定性。此外,在新能源汽车合作过程中获得了额外的社会收益,这将增加政府参与新能源汽车合作创新活动的积极性,研究结果可以指导政产学研未来更好的决策。     

A comparison of nine PLS1 algorithms

Nine PLS1 algorithms were evaluated, primarily in terms of their numerical stability, and secondarily their speed. There were six existing algorithms: (a) NIPALS by Wold; (b) the non‐orthogonalized scores algorithm by Martens; (c) Bidiag2 by Golub and Kahan; (d) SIMPLS by de Jong; (e) improved kernel PLS by Dayal; and (f) PLSF by Manne. Three new algorithms were created: (g) direct‐scores PLS1 based on a new recurrent formula for the calculation of basis vectors yielding scores directly from X and y; (h) Krylov PLS1 with its regression vector defined explicitly, using only the original X and y; (i) PLSPLS1 with its regression vector recursively defined from X and the regression vectors of its previous recursions. Data from IR and NIR spectrometers applied to food, agricultural, and pharmaceutical products were used to demonstrate the numerical stability. It was found that three methods (c, f, h) create regression vectors that do not well resemble the corresponding precise PLS1 regression vectors. Because of this, their loading and score vectors were also concluded to be deviating, and their models of X and the corresponding residuals could be shown to be numerically suboptimal in a least squares sense. Methods (a, b, e, g) were the most stable. Two of them (e, g) were not only numerically stable but also much faster than methods (a, b). The fast method (d) and the moderately fast method (i) showed a tendency to become unstable at high numbers of PLS factors. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

考虑充电设施重入的电动汽车旅行商问题研究

出于减少环境危害和响应相关法规的考虑,物流企业开始逐步将运输车辆转变为电动汽车;而由于电动汽车的续航里程有限,对电动汽车的路径优化也将涉及充电设施。充电设施的“重入”是指电动汽车返回之前已经通过的充电设施进行充能的现象,它的存在需要改变经典旅行商问题模型中的“子回路约束”。本文聚焦于充电设施的“重入”,构建了一个无需预估充电设施重入次数上限的电动汽车旅行商问题模型,并通过引入路径可行性判别方法和增加充电设施选择与重复策略,设计了一种改进蚁群算法对问题进行求解。结果表明:与未考虑重入的模型相比,本文提出的考虑充电设施重入的模型能在电动汽车电池容量较低的情况下求出最优解,同时也能够使充电设施承担多次充电任务,从而在较少充电设施情况下依然能够得到可行的最优路径。     

Traveling wavefronts of a delayed lattice reaction-diffusion model

We investigate a system of delayed lattice differential system which is a model of pioneer-climax species distributed on one dimensional discrete space. We show that there exists a constant $c^*>0$, such that the model has traveling wave solutions connecting a boundary equilibrium to a co-existence equilibrium for $c\geq c^*$. We also argue that $c^*$ is the minimal wave speed and the delay is harmless. The Schauder's fixed point theorem combining with upper-lower solution technique is used for showing the existence of wave solution.
