注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）儿童的空间知觉失认研究

空间知觉是对物体距离、形状、大小、方位等空间特性的知觉.空间知觉失认的患者往往会出现写字左右颠倒、间架结构处理混乱、对数量关系不易理解等缺陷,从而无法准确地感知物体的各种特性,难以形成良好的推理能力.对ADHD儿童空间知觉的研究目前还存在很大的空缺,虽已有学者将视觉本顿图形测试运用于ADHD儿童的空间知觉研究中,证明了ADHD儿童存在空间认知失认,但这是唯一一项应用于该领域的研究,尚缺乏普遍性.本文通过分析现有的视觉空间研究理论和实验方法,指出今后在ADHD儿童空间知觉研究中还需使用更多的实验方法,使对ADHD患儿在空间知觉失认的研究具有普遍性.笔者将研究内容进行了细化,分别从形状知觉、长度-距离知觉、方位知觉、大小知觉等方面进行具体、深入的论证.

Anisotropy of Seismic Attenuation in Fractured Media: Theory and Ultrasonic Experiment

This is a study on anisotropy of seismic attenuation in a transversely isotropic (TI) model, which is a long-wavelength equivalent of an isotropic medium with embedded parallel fractures. The model is based on Schoenberg’s linear-slip theory. Attenuation is introduced by means of a complex-valued stiffness matrix, which includes complex-valued normal and tangential weaknesses. To study the peculiarities of seismic attenuation versus wave-propagation direction in TI media, numerical modeling was performed. The model-input data were the complex-valued weaknesses found from the laboratory ultrasonic experiment made with a Plexiglas plate-stack model, oil-saturated (wet) and air-filled (dry). The laboratory experiment and the numerical modeling have shown that in the vicinity of the symmetry axis, in the wet model, P-wave attenuation is close to S-wave attenuation, while in the dry model, P-wave attenuation is much greater than S-wave attenuation. Moreover, the fluid fill affects the P-wave attenuation pattern. In the dry (air-saturated) model, the attenuation pattern in the vicinity of the symmetry axis exhibits steeper slope and curvature than in the wet (oil-saturated) model. To define the slope or the curvature, a QVO gradient was introduced, which was found to be proportional to the symmetry-axis Q _S/Q _P-ratio, which explains the differences between dry and wet models. Thus, depending on the Q _S/Q _P-ratio, the QVO gradient can serve as an indicator of the type of fluid in fractures, because the QVO gradient is greater in gas-saturated than in liquid-saturated rocks. The analysis of P-wave attenuation anisotropy in seismic reflection and vertical seismic profiling data can be useful in seismic exploration for distinguishing gas from water in fractures.     

Neurodynamics analysis of brain information transmission

This paper proposes a model of neural networks consisting of populations of perceptive neurons, inter-neurons, and motor neurons according to the theory of stochastic phase resetting dynamics. According to this model, the dynamical characteristics of neural networks are studied in three coupling cases, namely, series and parallel coupling, series coupling, and unilateral coupling. The results show that the indentified structure of neural networks enables the basic characteristics of neural information processing to be described in terms of the actions of both the optional motor and the reflected motor. The excitation of local neural networks is caused by the action of the optional motor. In particular, the excitation of the neural population caused by the action of the optional motor in the motor cortex is larger than that caused by the action of the reflected motor. This phenomenon indicates that there are more neurons participating in the neural information processing and the excited synchronization motion under the action of the optional motor.     

Vibration suppression in multi-tool ultrasonic machining to multi-external and parametric excitations

Ultrasonic machining （USM） is of particular interest for the machining of non-conductive, brittle materials such as engineering ceramics. In this paper, a multi-tool technique is used in USM to reduce the vibration in the tool holder and have reasonable amplitude for the tools. This can be done via dynamic absorbers. The coupling of four nonlinear oscillators of the tool holder and tools representing ultrasonic cutting process are investigated. This leads to a four-degree-of-freedom system subjected to multi-external and multi-parametric excitation forces. The aim of this work is to control the tool holder behavior at simultaneous primary, sub-harmonic and internal resonance condition. Multiple scale perturbation method is used to obtain the solution up to the second order approximations. The different resonance cases are reported and studied numerically. The stability of the system is investigated by using both phase-plane and frequency response techniques. The effects of the different parameters of the tools on the system behavior are studied numerically. Comparison with the available published work is reported.

An elastodynamic computational time-reversal method for shape reconstruction of traction-free scatterers

This study proposes an elastodynamic time-reversal imaging method for the shape reconstruction of flaws with the traction-free boundary. The proposed method is a generalization of the synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) implemented with the aid of time-reversal back-propagation computation. The reconstruction formula is derived from the boundary condition applied on the flaw boundary without using a diffraction theory yielding an inherently normalized objective function. No restriction is imposed on the wave source or the material properties as long as the wave medium is linearly elastic and lossless. There are two major advantages with the proposed method. First, it is free from ray tracing. The method can thus work with an arbitrary source and the wave modes including inhomogeneous waves. Second, signal conditioning is not required to focus a scattered field to the correct location in the reconstructed image. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the performance and benefits of the proposed method. In the numerical examples, the shape of cavities and cracks in an elastic layer is reconstructed from synthetic data. The results show that the method works well with the reverberating incident fields in which inhomogeneous and body waves coexist. Also demonstrated is that the curvature of the cavities is resolved well at the scale of the incident wave length. Through the numerical examples, the method is shown to be a versatile imaging method potentially useful for ultrasonic nondestructive characterization of small flaws.     

Invariant submodels and exact solutions of Khokhlov–Zabolotskaya–Kuznetsov model of nonlinear hydroacoustics with dissipation

We study three-dimensional Khokhlov–Zabolotskaya–Kuznetsov (KZK) model of the nonlinear hydroacoustics with dissipation. This model is described by third order quasilinear partial differential equation of the (KZK). We obtained that the (KZK) equation admits an infinite Lie group of the transformations, depending on the three arbitrary functions. This is due to the fact that in the (KZK) model the main direction of the wave’s propagation is singled out. The submodels of the (KZK) model.are described by the invariant solutions of the (KZK) equation. We studied essentially distinct, not linked by means of the point transformations, invariant solutions of rank 0 and 1 of this equation. Also we considered the invariant solutions of rank 2 and 3. The invariant solutions of rank 0 and 1 are found either explicitly, or their search is reduced to the solution of the nonlinear integro-differential equations. For example, we obtained the invariant solutions that we called by “Ultrasonic knife” and “Ultrasonic destroyer”. The submodel “Ultrasonic knife” have the following property: at each fixed moment of the time in the field of the existence of the solution near a some plane the pressure increases indefinitely and becomes infinite on this plane. The submodel “Ultrasonic destroyer” contains a countable number of “Ultrasonic knives”. The presence of the arbitrary constants in the integro-differential equations, that determine invariant solutions of rank 1 provides a new opportunities for analytical and numerical study of the boundary value problems for the received submodels, and, thus, for the original (KZK) model. With a help of these invariant solutions we researched a propagation of the intensive acoustic waves (one-dimensional, axisymmetric and planar) for which the acoustic pressure, speed and acceleration of its change, or the acoustic pressure , speed and acceleration of its change in the radial direction, or the acoustic pressure, speed and acceleration of its change in the direction of one of the axes are specified at the initial moment of the time at a fixed point. Under the certain additional conditions, we established the existence and the uniqueness of the solutions of boundary value problems, describing these wave processes. Mechanical relevance of the obtained solutions is as follows: (1) these solutions describe nonlinear and diffraction effects in ultrasonic fields of a special kind, (2) these solutions can be used as a test solutions in the numerical calculations performed in studies of ultrasonic fields generated by powerful emitters. Application of the obtained formula generating the new solutions for the found solutions gives families of the solutions containing three arbitrary functions.

Detecting and classifying interfacial defects by inverse ultrasound scattering analysis

We formulate and solve a time-harmonic inverse scattering problem to estimate the interfacial stiffness distribution at an interface between two elastic solid half-spaces. We assume prior knowledge of the material properties of both solid half-spaces, as well as the ultrasound incident field. The interfacial stiffness distribution is then estimated from the reflected signal. We use the Quasi-Static-Approximation for the interface, where it is modelled by a set of tangential and normal springs, and allow the interfacial stiffness to depend upon the position along the interface. In addition, we use the Particle Swarm Optimization Technique to solve the formulated inverse problem. We validate our implementation and evaluate the presented method’s performance for noisy input data and different measurement scenarios with the aid of numerical simulations. From the obtained numerical results, we may say that the proposed method is robust to the presence of noise and has the potential to detect and classify interfacial defects.
