Raman spectroscopic detection for liquid and solid targets using a spatial heterodyne spectrometer

Spatial heterodyne Raman spectroscopy (SHRS) is a new type of effective method for the analysis of structure and composition of liquid and solid targets with the characteristics of no moving parts, high spectral resolution, high optical throughput and large field of view. The technique is very suitable for detecting the targets from long distances or under the conditions with ambient light, which is essential for the exploration of planetary surface. In order to have a better understanding of the ability of SHRS for the detection of liquid and solid targets, a breadboard was designed, built and calibrated. Signal to noise was estimated at different integration time or laser power for carbon tetrachloride. Pure materials or materials contained in bottles were both tested. The mixture of organic liquids or inorganic solids were tested. In order to test the detection ability for natural targets, some composition‐unknown rocks and pebbles were tested. The results have shown that SHRS can meet the requirements for the detection of weak Raman signal scattered from artificial or natural targets. Standoff detection of sulfur from 5‐m or 10‐m distance without using any telescope or collimation optics was also tried to test the high optical throughput of SHRS. The potential feasibility of standoff detection has been proved. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

GENERALIZED FINITE SPECTRAL METHOD FOR 1D BURGERS AND KDV EQUATIONS

A generalized finite spectral method is proposed. The method is of high-order accuracy. To attain high accuracy in time discretization, the fourth-order Adams-Bashforth-Moulton predictor and corrector scheme was used. To avoid numerical oscillations caused by the dispersion term in the KdV equation, two numerical techniques were introduced to improve the numerical stability. The Legendre, Chebyshev and Her-mite polynomials were used as the basis functions. The proposed numerical scheme is validated by applications to the Burgers equation (nonlinear convection- diffusion problem) and KdV equation (single solitary and 2-solitary wave problems), where analytical solutions are available for comparison. Numerical results agree very well with the corresponding analytical solutions in all cases.     

Deformation and stress from in-pore drying-induced crystallization of salt

The deformation and the fracture of porous solids from internal crystallization of salt is explored in the framework of the thermodynamics of unsaturated brittle poroelasticity. In the first place the usual theory of crystal growth in confined conditions is further developed in order to include both the deformation and the drying of the porous solid. The thermodynamics reveals the existence of a dilation coefficient associated with the crystallization process, and provides a solute-crystal equilibrium condition which involves the relative humidity, the supersaturation, and the salt characteristics. This thermodynamic condition and the mechanical equilibrium of the solution-crystal interface combine to give the current crystallization pore radius. Upscaling this information at the macroscopic scale, and taking into account the salt mass supplied by the invading solution, the approach leads to a quantitative analysis of the role of the pore size distribution on the crystal growth under repeated imbibition-drying cycles. The deformation and the fracture of the porous solid from drying-induced crystallization are then considered in the context of brittle poroelasticity. The current unsaturated macroscopic poroelastic properties are upscaled from the microscopic elastic properties of the solid matrix and from the current liquid, crystal and gas saturations. The adoption of a fracture criterion based on the elastic energy that the solid matrix can ultimately store finally leads to the determination of how long a stone can resist repeated cycles of drying-induced crystallization of salt.     

Modeling of terrain impact caused by tracked vehicles

Analytical models that can predict the terrain impact caused by tracked vehicles on a horizontal plane were developed and tested. The models included a disturbed width model and an impact severity model. Inputs of the terrain impact models included vehicle static properties, vehicle dynamic properties, and terrain properties. The tested vehicles included an M1A1 tank, an M577 Armored Personal Carrier (APC), and an M548 cargo carrier. The models were verified with field tests conducted in Yakima Training Center in Yakima, WA, Fort Riley, KS, and Camp Atterbury, Indiana. The average percentage errors of the disturbed width model for the M1A1, M577, and the M548 were 10.0%, 27.3%, and 8.5%, respectively. The average percentage errors of the impact severity model of the M1A1 and M577 were 25.0% and 21.4%, respectively.     

Asymptotics of Neumann harmonics when a cavity is close to the exterior boundary of the domain

We construct the asymptotics (as ε→0) of solutions to the Neumann problem for the Laplace equation and of the corresponding Dirichlet integral. The problem concerns a three-dimensional domain having two connected components of the boundary at the distance ε>0. To cite this article: G. Cardone et al., C. R. Mecanique 335 (2007).     

Homogeneous turbulence subjected to rotation-dominated plane distortion

A new configuration of distorted homogeneous turbulence is investigated in the domain of rotation-dominated elliptical flows. The experimental results are compared with exact numerical solutions obtained in Fourier space for the linear part of the problem. The inherently periodic character of the flow results in typical oscillatory variations of the anisotropy and the pressure-strain correlations. A new two-point closure approach of the EDQNM type is proposed for the nonlinear problem; it is based on a representation of the spectral tensor by scalar functions expanded in terms of spherical harmonics.     

Towards a new partially integrated transport model for coarse grid and unsteady turbulent flow simulations

A new two-equation model is proposed for large eddy simulations (LESs) using coarse grids. The modeled transport equations are obtained from a direct transposition of well-known statistical models by using multiscale spectrum splitting given by the filtering operation applied to the Navier–Stokes equations. The model formulation is compatible with the two extreme limits that are on one hand a direct numerical simulation and on the other hand a full statistical modeling. The characteristic length scale of subgrid turbulence is no longer given by the spatial discretization step size, but by the use of a dissipation equation. The proposed method is applied to a transposition of the well-known k- statistical model, but the same method can be developed for more advanced closures. This approach is intended to contribute to non-zonal hybrid models that bridge Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) and LES, by using a continuous change rather than matching zones. The main novelty in the model is the derivation of a new equation for LES that is formally consistent with RANS when the filter width is very large. This approach is dedicated to applications to non-equilibrium turbulence and coarse grid simulations. An illustration is made of large eddy simulations of turbulence submitted to periodic forcing. The model is also an alternative approach to hybrid models. PACS 47.27.Eq

Velocity profile measurement by ultrasonic doppler method

The ultrasonic velocity profile measuring method has been developed at PSI for application in fluid mechanics and fluid flow measurement. It uses pulsed ultrasonic echography together with the detection of the instantaneous Doppler shift frequency. This method has the following advantages over the conventional techniques: (1) an efficient flow mapping process, (2) applicability to opaque liquids, and (3) a record of the spatiotemporal velocity field. After a brief introduction of its principle, the characteristics and specifications of the present system are given. Then examples in fluid engineering for oscillating pipe flow, T-branching flow of mercury, and recirculating flow in a square cavity are described that confirm the method's advantages. Several other works under way by other investigators are introduced. A potential for in-depth study of fluid dynamics is demonstrated by several examples from an investigation of modulated wavy flows in a rotating Couette system. The position-averaged power spectrum and the time-averaged energy spectral density were used to study the dynamic characteristics of the flow, and subsequently the velocity field was decomposed into its intrinsic wave structure based on two-dimensional Fourier analysis.
