气泡振动的非线性耦合模型

我们推广了Longuet-Higgins关于各向同性气泡的非各向同性模式激发的二阶理论。着重注意“呼吸”模式和“变形”模式之间的相互作用,两个模式之间的能量交换足够强,以致于两个模式有同量级的振幅。文中指出:模式耦合的方程组类似于其他物理领域(如非线性光学、水波)所研究的方程组,并讨论了二种特解,考虑了平衡点及其稳定性。     

Review on underwater sound absorption materials and mechanisms

随着我国加速实施海洋强国战略,对先进水下吸声材料的需求日益迫切.与空气吸声不同,水下的高静水压力和复杂的海洋环境对水下吸声材料提出了更为苛刻的要求.吸声问题的本质是如何将弹性能高效地转化为热能或其他形式能量.本文综述了主要以聚合物分子内摩擦机制及界面耗能机制为基础的传统水下吸声材料.传统水下吸声材料面临的主要是其在低频及高静水压力下吸声性能差的问题.这是因为：一方面受质量密度定律的限制,有限厚度的水下吸声材料无法有效吸收水中传来的低频声波;另一方面,在高静水压力下,弹性材料如高分子聚合物会变“硬”,从而大大降低了声波弹性能的转换效率.随着局域共振理论及超材料概念的提出,发展出了一系列新型水下吸声材料,为解决水下吸声材料遇到的难题提供了新思路.局域共振理论的特点是可以用小尺度结构控制长波声波的传播,从而可以解决低频吸声问题.本文重点综述了局域共振理论,以及由此发展出的声子木堆、声子玻璃等新型水下吸声材料.声子玻璃材料在局域共振理论基础上,通过引入多孔金属骨架结构提高了材料的抗压性能,从而解决了高静水压力下材料吸声性能变差的问题.本文最后对水下吸声材料未来发展方向进行了展望.     

超声搅拌磁流变抛光液的声场仿真分析

为了探究超声搅拌磁流变抛光液的制备及优化工艺,利用多物理场数值计算方法,建立了超声搅拌磁流变抛光液的声场仿真模型,并进行了频域分析。研究了不同液位深度、超声变幅杆探入深度,不同功率下磁流变抛光液的声场分布。通过测量磁流变抛光液的声场强度对声场仿真进行了验证。结果表明：随着距变幅杆距离的增加,声强逐渐减弱,高声强区域主要分布在换能器轴线附近。声强在距变幅杆20mm范围内急剧衰减,变幅杆最佳探入深度为10mm,增大功率有助于空化区域的扩大。声场仿真结果与实验测量结果基本一致,对磁流变抛光液的制备提供了数值计算基础。     

Using transient and steady-state SEA to assess potential errors in the measurement of structure-borne sound power input from machinery on coupled reception plates

Isolated reception plates provide an engineering approach to quantify the structure-borne sound power input from machinery through the measurement of the spatial-average velocity level and structural reverberation times. For applications in building acoustics there are practical and economic reasons to consider using coupled reception plates formed by solid heavyweight walls or floors that are structurally coupled to other building elements. This paper uses transient and steady-state statistical energy analysis to investigate how the errors depend upon the building structure to which the coupled reception plate is connected. It is shown that the problem is twofold. Firstly, in the low- and mid-frequency ranges, the steady-state velocity level on the coupled reception plate is increased by energy returning from other coupled plates. Secondly, the structural decays on the coupled reception plate have significant curvature due to returning energy; hence short evaluation ranges are needed to minimise the error when determining the total loss factor. This leads to a problematic situation where the coupled reception plate appears to give the correct answer due to the error in the energy cancelling out the error in the total loss factor. The latter error can be minimised using short evaluation ranges for the structural reverberation time.     

A combined approach of Kullback–Leibler divergence and background subtraction for moving object detection in thermal video

In this work, a robust method for moving object detection in thermal video frames has been proposed by including Kullback–Leibler divergence (KLD) based threshold and background subtraction (BGS) technique. A trimmed-mean based background model has been developed that is capable enough to reduce noise or dynamic component of the background. This work assumed that each pixel has normally distributed. The KLD has computed between background pixel and a current pixel with the help of Gaussian mixture model. The proposed threshold is useful enough to classify the state of each pixel. The post-processing step uses morphological tool for edge linking, and then the flood-fill algorithm has applied for hole-filling, and finally the silhouette of targeted object has generated. The proposed methods run faster and have validated over various real-time based problematic thermal video sequences. In the experimental results, the average value of F₁-score, area under the curve, the percentage of correct classification, Matthew’s correlation coefficient show higher values whereas total error and percentage of the wrong classification show minimum values. Moreover, the proposed-1 method achieved higher accuracy and execution speed with minimum false alarm rate that has been compared with proposed-2 as well as considered peer methods in the real-time thermal video.     

Preserving the Rothschild–Stiglitz type of increasing risk with background risk

Background risk refers to a risk that is exogenous and is not subject to transformations by a decision-maker. In this paper, we extend the definition of the Rothschild–Stiglitz type of increasing risk to a background risk framework. We theoretically investigate a more general definition of increase in risk in the presence of background risk. The results suggest that an extended concept of expectation dependence plays a vital role.     

Normal Coordinate Analysis of Pyridine-N-Oxide

We have been interested for some time in the study of the hydrogen bonded complexes in the far-infrared region with special attention to the adducts between phenol and pyridine-N-oxides (1). In such systems the intermolecular mode vσ was identified and some intramolecular vibrations related to the N-O group were observed to be remarkably shifted consequent on hydrogen bonding. In this context we wished to obtain a force field for the complex which could fit the observational results. Unfortunately for one of the constituents i. e. pyridine-N-oxide a force field, suitable for our purposes, was not available and therefore preliminarily we determined it. We report here the results of such analysis.
