Gauge Coupling Constants as Residues of Spacetime Representations

The gauge coupling constants in the electroweak standard model can be written as mass ratios, e.g. the coupling constant for isospin interactions with the mass of the charged weak boson and the mass parameter characterizing the ground state degeneracy. A theory is given which relates the two masses in such a ratio to invariants which characterize the representations of a noncompact nonabelian group with real rank 2. The two noncompact abelian subgroups are operations for time and for a hyperbolic position space in a model for spacetime, homogeneous under dilation and Lorentz group action. The representations of the spacetime model embed the bound state representations of hyperbolic position space as seen in the nonrelativistic hydrogen atom. Interactions like Coulomb or Yukawa interactions are described by Lie algebra representation coefficients. A quantitative determination of the ratio of the invariants for position- and time-related operations, determined by the spacetime representation, gives the right order of magnitude for the gauge coupling constants.     

On the estimation of the regression coefficients of a continuous parameter process with stationary residual

The asymptotic expressions of the covariance matrices for both the least square estimates _L α _T and Markov (best linear) estimates are obtained, based on a sample in a finite interval (0, T) of the regression co-efficients α = (α ₁, …, α _{m 0})′ of a parameter-continuous process with a stationary residual. We assume that the regression variables φ _ν(t), t ⩾ 0, ν = 1, …, m ₀, are continuous in t, and satisfy conditions (3.1)–(3.3). For the residual, we assume that it is a stationary process that possesses a bounded continuous spectral density f(λ). Under these assumptions, it is proven that

Analysis of film strain and stress in a film-substrate cantilever system

The bending problem of a magnetic film-nonmagnetic substrate cantilever system is studied by using the principle of energy minimization. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of geometrical and physical parameter dependence of the neutral plane, internal film stress and strain of the cantilever system, and then the influence of such a parameter on the bending characteristic is presented. The results indicate, owing to the anisotropic expanding feature of the magnetostriction, that the neutral plane is generally anisotropic, and moves downwards rapidly with the increasing thickness ratio. Meanwhile, the bounding rigidity of substrate on the film will decrease with the increasing thickness ratio, and thus release the film stress, i.e., it decreases, but the film strain increases. The effect of Poisson’s ratio of the materials on the film strain, the stress and the neutral plane in the direction transverse to the magnetization is prominent. For the strain and the stress in the magnetization, however, the role of Poisson’s ratio is inconspicuous. This property is due to the initiative elongating (or contracting) feature of the magnetic film along its magnetization.

Behavior of a PZT ring under non-uniform mechanical stress

Ring-shaped lead zirconate titanate (PZT) piezoelectric vibrators were subjected to non-uniform mechanical stress applied by bolt clamping. The effect of mechanical stress on the effective electromechanical coupling factor (k_eff) and mechanical quality factor (Q_m) of the thickness and wall thickness modes was studied by an equivalent electric circuit analysis. The initiation and propagation of cracks under mechanical stress were also discussed based on the resonance method and the indentation technique. k_eff for both the thickness and wall thickness modes decreased with increase in mechanical stress due to de-poling of the PZT. Q_m of the thickness mode dropped sharply with increase in mechanical stress while Q_m of the wall thickness mode remained almost unchange. Existence of microcracks in a PZT vibrator can be detected by the occurrence of spurious vibrations at the wall thickness mode in the electrical impedance vs. frequency spectra.     

Letter: Trace Anomaly and Backreaction of the Dynamical Casimir Effect

The Casimir energy for massless scalar field which satisfies periodic boundary conditions in two-dimensional domain wall background is calculated by making use of general properties of renormalized stress-tensor. The line element of domain wall is time dependent, the trace anomaly which is the nonvanishing T for a conformally invariant field after renormalization, represent the back reaction of the dynamical Casimir effect.     

Propagation of Bleustein-Gulyaev waves in a prestressed layered piezoelectric structure

Based on the theories of nonlinear continuum mechanics, piezoelectricity and elastic waves in solids, theoretical analysis of Bleustein-Gulyaev surface acoustic wave propagation in a prestressed layered piezoelectric structure are described. Numerical calculations are performed for the case that the layer and the substrate are identical LiNbO(3) except that they are polarized in opposite directions. It is found that an almost linear behavior of the relative change in phase velocity versus the initial stress is obtained for both surface electrically free and shorted cases. Potential applications in the design of acoustic wave devices are suggested.     

计算机辅助彩色立体图像生成中的误差分析与处理

柱透镜光栅的计算机辅助立体成像的基本原理是将二维序列图像进行切分和重组,使之以三维模型的形式展现,使合成的图像在柱透镜光栅下观察时具有"纵深感"。该项技术在广告、摄影、电影制作中具有广泛的应用。但是长期以来,在图像切分时并不能保证像素一定被整除,这意味着剩余像素的出现,合成的立体图像必然存在误差。如何处理剩余像素的问题一直是个难题,阻碍了该技术的推广。针对立体图像生成方法中的剩余像素问题,详尽地分析了误差的形成,并提出了强行取整算法和误差分散算法两种误差处理方法。实验表明,这两种算法能较好的处理剩余像素,增强了合成图像的立体效果,这将有助于立体成像技术的进一步推广。
