Sub-pixel dimensional measurement with Logistic edge model

To separate substandard workpieces from products, sub-pixel edge location with Logistic edge model is proposed for dimensional measurement. In the first step, workpiece rotation is corrected with high precision image rotation to reduce the measurement error and simplify the edge model. Secondly, Logistic edge model is utilized for fitting the discrete edge data to locate the sub-pixel workpiece edge and model parameters are estimated through the objective function in terms of the difference between assumed model and real image data. Finally, an edge pixel compensation method is presented with edge pixel compensation value, which weakens the effect of edge transition zone effectively. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is effective for dimensional measurement with the relative error less than 0.05%.     

Detection H2S mixed with natural gas using hollow-core photonic bandgap fiber

An optical fiber gas sensor using hollow-core photonic bandgap fiber as a gas cell is proposed to detect H₂S mixed with natural gas. This sensor is advantageous for eliminating instability of light source, impact of thermal zero drift, and zero shift of photoelectric device. The gas sensing probe of configuration is using two shorter pieces of hollow-core photonic bandgap fiber (HC-PBF) with the same overall length instead of one long piece of HC-PBF to improve the system response. The experimental dates indicate that a minimum detectivity of 10 ppm for the system configuration was estimated.     

Edge-wave-driven durable variations in the thickness of the surfactant film and concentration of surface floats

By employing a simple model for small-scale linear edge waves propagating along a homogeneous sloping beach, we demonstrate that certain combinations of linear wave components may lead to durable changes in the thickness of the surfactant film, equivalently, in the concentration of various substances (debris, litter) floating on the water surface. Such changes are caused by high-amplitude transient elevations that resemble rogue waves and occur during dispersive focusing of wave fields with a continuous spectrum. This process can be treated as an intrinsic mechanism of production of patches in the surface layer of an otherwise homogeneous coastal environment impacted by linear edge waves.     

Edge states at the interface between monolayer and bilayer graphene

The electronic properties for monolayer-bilayer hybrid graphene with zigzag interface are studied by both the Dirac equation and numerical calculation in zero field and in a magnetic field. Basically there are two types of zigzag interface dependent on the way of lattice stacking at the edge. Our study shows they have different locations of the localized edge states. Accordingly, the energy-momentum dispersion and local density of states behave quit differently along the interface near the Fermi energy EF=0.     

Selective depiction of susceptibility transitions using Laplace-filtered phase maps

In this work, we aim to demonstrate the ability of Laplace-filtered three-dimensional (3D) phase maps to selectively depict the susceptibility transitions in an object. To realize this goal, it is first shown that both the Laplace derivative of the z component of the static magnetic field in an object and the Laplacian of the corresponding phase distribution may be expected to be zero in regions of constant or linearly varying susceptibility and to be nonzero when there is an abrupt change in susceptibility, for instance, at a single point, a ridge, an interface, an edge or a boundary. Next, a method is presented by which the Laplace derivative of a 3D phase map can be directly extracted from the complex data, without the need for phase unwrapping or subtraction of a reference image. The validity of this approach and of the theory behind it is subsequently demonstrated by simulations and phantom experiments with exactly known susceptibility distributions. Finally, the potential of the Laplace derivative analysis is illustrated by simulations with a Shepp-Logan digital brain phantom and experiments with a gel phantom containing positive and negative focal susceptibility deviations.

Simulation of Lamb wave reflections at plate edges using the semi-analytical finite element method

In typical Lamb wave simulation practices, effects of plate edge reflections are often not considered in order to simplify the wave signal interpretations. Methods that are based on infinite plates such as the semi-analytical finite element method is effective in simulating Lamb waves as it excludes the effect of plate edges. However, the inclusion of plate edges in a finite plate could render this method inapplicable, especially for transient response simulations. Here, by applying the ratio of Lamb mode reflections at plate edges, and representing the reflection at plate edges using infinite plate solutions, the semi-analytical finite element method can be applied for transient response simulation, even when the plate is no longer infinite.

Theoretical analysis of generalized loadings and image forces in a planar magnetoelectroelastic layered half-plane

The problem of a planar transversely isotropic magnetoelectroelastic layered half-plane subjected to generalized line forces and edge dislocations is analyzed. The complete solutions consist only of the simplest solutions for an infinite magnetoelectroelastic medium with applied loadings. The physical meaning of this solution is the image method. It is shown that the explicit solutions include Green's function for originally applied singularities in an infinite medium and the other image singularities are induced to satisfy free surface and interface continuity conditions. The mathematical method used in this study provides an automatic determination for the locations and magnitudes of all image singularities. The locations and magnitudes of image singularities are dependent on the roots of the characteristic equation which is related to the material constants of the layered half-plane. With the aid of the generalized Peach-Koehler formula, the explicit expressions of image forces acting on dislocations are easily derived from the full-field solutions of the generalized stresses. Numerical results for the full-field distributions of stresses, electric fields, and magnetic fields in the layered half-plane medium are presented based on the analytical solutions. The image forces and equilibrium positions of one dislocation, two dislocations, and an array of dislocations are presented by numerical calculations and are discussed in detail.
