Supervised learning method and quality capability of process used in an optical transmission inspection of on-line nonwoven basis weight

The supervised learning method and quality capability of process used in an on-line optical transmission inspection system of the basis weight for nonwoven material are investigated. A near-infrared light transmission inspection is applied in the production machine of a nonwoven fabric to detect the basis weight and support the producing quality. Using least squares method, the parameter transfer equations of the piecewise ploynomials functions between the measured voltage and the nonwoven basis weight are found. Supervised learning method is adopted to improve the producing capability. It is shown that the capability index of process Cp and Cpk is testing samples when the supervised learning algorithm is used. Obvious, the supervised learning method is effective to improve the producing capability and support the producing quality.     

The absorptive pion-nucleus optical potential

We calculate s-wave and p-wave absorptive pion-nucleus optical potentials assuming that a pion is absorbed by a pair of nucleons. Employing a model which takes into account both a single nucleon absorption with nucleon-nucleon correlations and rescattering, we obtain simple analytic expressions for Im B₀ sid Im C₀ of the pion-nucleus optical potential. The off-shell effect on the s-wave pion absorption is examined and shown to be strongly modified by short range correlations. The result for the p-wave absorptive part Im C₀ clearly shows the importance of the tensor correlations. The enhanced nn emission after π^? absorption is shown to be related with a large p-wave πN scattering length a₃₃ via the tensor correlations.     

Clustering coefficient and community structure of bipartite networks

Many real-world networks display natural bipartite structure, where the basic cycle is a square. In this paper, with the similar consideration of standard clustering coefficient in binary networks, a definition of the clustering coefficient for bipartite networks based on the fraction of squares is proposed. In order to detect community structures in bipartite networks, two different edge clustering coefficients LC₄ and LC₃ of bipartite networks are defined, which are based on squares and triples respectively. With the algorithm of cutting the edge with the least clustering coefficient, communities in artificial and real world networks are identified. The results reveal that investigating bipartite networks based on the original structure can show the detailed properties that is helpful to get deep understanding about the networks.     

Directed transport of modulated structures in the Frenkel–Kontorova model with a pulsating coupling

We study the directed transport of commensurate and incommensurate modulated phases of the Frenkel–Kontorova model by (parametric driving) periodic pulsed variation of the nearest-neighbor coupling in the dissipative limit of the dynamics. We obtain that a directed current flow appears as the amplitude of the pulsating coupling C increases above a threshold coupling C_th. This threshold coupling depends on the average interspacing ω between the oscillators displaying singularities as the system becomes commensurable with the underlying lattice. By making use of the discommensuration theory of modulated phases we obtain that the dependence of the directed current on ω is a piecewise linear function with integer slope. Numerical results confirm these predictions.

Effect of instrumental particle sizing resolution on the modelling of aerosol radiative parameters

A more realistic estimation of the scattering and hemispheric backscattering coefficients, σ_sp and σ_bsp, and their respective optical cross section, C_sca and C_bk, of aerosol particles is presented on the basis of the exact resolution of the width of the size bins of the particle counter instruments when size distribution measurements are used, and, with the exact optical detector instruments ability. The scattering and hemispheric backscattering cross sections, C_sca and C_bk, of the particles are averaged over the full size bins of the particle counter instrument, while these quantities are usually estimated only on the value of the mean geometric diameter of each size bin. Six instruments, the APS, ASASP-X, DMPS, FSSP-100, ELPI, and SMPS frequently used in particle size distribution measurements are reviewed, for spherical sea-salt particles at a wavelength λ=0.55 μm. The comparison using the conventional geometric mean diameter versus the use of the full size bin leads to large amount of errors for the optical cross section with non-negligible effects on their respective optical coefficients. The maximal accuracy expected for these optical quantities depend on the particle diameter as well as on the channel width of the instruments, and are also function of the angular detector probe used to measure them.     

Numerical approach to laser beam propagation through turbulent atmosphere and evaluation of beam quality factor

In this paper, propagation of a Gaussian laser beam through turbulent atmosphere is evaluated numerically. The beam quality factor for the propagated beam has been estimated for different turbulent conditions that are characterized by parameter C_n. The calculations show that the beam quality can be affected dramatically by atmospheric turbulence and the laser beam size and wavelength have major role in the results. Furthermore, the propagation of laser beam in longer distance results in more spatial perturbation of the beam. The results of these calculations and evaluation of beam quality factor M² can be used for estimating the refractive index structure parameter (or atmosphere turbulent parameter) C_n.     

A simple-minded direct approach to estimating the calibration parameter for proportionate data

In non-destructive assay there exist techniques founded on physics principles and experimental design for which the quantity of interest y_True to be estimated is expected to vary in direct proportion to the true value x_True of the experimentally observed predictor quantity x. In other words, the calibration is a straight line passing through the origin, so that the assay method is fully described by a single parameter, the slope. In principle a single reference item is sufficient to estimate the slope. However, there are good reasons for including more than a single item in the calibration procedure. When multiple items are used questions arise regarding how to make best use of all the available calibration data in estimating the slope. This paper shows that the usual weighted least squares curve fitting approach can be circumvented by using only the familiar notion of a weighted arithmetic mean. In particular we draw attention to the ease with which uncertainties in both x and y can be incorporated using this simple and direct approach. Moreover the uncertainty in the calibration parameter is estimated using familiar techniques and with an appropriate magnitude for subsequent use, for instance, in setting reasonable uncertainties on assay results performed using the calibration. For completeness, weighted least squares accounting for nonzero covariances among the measurements y of y_True together with an errors in predictors approach accounting for errors in x is also presented.

Ethyl pyruvate-2-methyl-4-chloro-phenylhydrazone, C₁₂H₁₅N₂O₂Cl, is an important intermediate for the synthesis of ethyl-5-chloro-7-methyl indole-2-carboxy-late. Crystals are orthorhombic witha=6.99(4),b=23.75(6),c=17.05(6) Å and eight molecules per cell in the space group Cmca.

Specific features of the optical and electrical properties of polycrystalline CdTe films grown by the thermal evaporation method

The results of studying the physical properties of thin CdTe films obtained by the thermal evaporation method have been presented. The optical constants and the band gap of the films under study have been determined (E _g = 1.46 eV). It has been established based on the investigation of optical properties and the Raman spectrum of the films that they possess high structural quality. The activation energy of the electrical conductivity of CdTe films has been determined: E _a = 0.039 eV. The measured spectral dependences of the impedance of CdTe thin films are characteristic of the inhomogeneous medium with two time constants: τ_gb = R _gb C _gb = 1/ω_gb = 1.62 × 10^?3 s and τ_g = R _g C _g = 1/ω_g = 9.1 × 10^?7 s for grain boundaries and grains, respectively.     

Studying the energy dependence of intrinsic conversion efficiency of single crystal scintillators under X-ray excitation

Single crystal scintilators are used in various radiation detectors applications. The efficiency of the crystal can be determined by the Detector Optical Gain (DOG) defined as the ratio of the emitted optical photon flux over the incident radiation photons flux. A parameter affecting DOG is the intrinsic conversion efficiency (n _C ) giving the percentage of the X-ray photon power converted to optical photon power. n _C is considered a constant value for X-ray energies in the order of keV although a non-proportional behavior has been reported. In this work an analytical model, has been utilized to single crystals scintillators GSO:Ce, LSO:Ce and LYSO:Ce to examine whether the intrinsic conversion efficiency shows non proportional behavior under X-ray excitation. DOG was theoretically calculated as a function of the incident X-ray spectrum, the X-ray absorption efficiency, the energy of the produced optical photons and the light transmission efficiency. The theoretical DOG values were compared with experimental data obtained by irradiating the crystals with X-rays at tube voltages from 50 to 140 kV and by measuring the light energy flux emitted from the irradiated screen. An initial value for n _C (calculated from literature data) was assumed for the X-ray tube voltage of 50 kV. For higher X-ray tube voltages the optical photon propagation phenomena was assumed constant and any deviations between experimental and theoretical data were associated with changes in the intrinsic conversion efficiency. The experimental errors were below 7% for each experimental setup. The behavior of n _C values for LSO:Ce and LYSO:Ce were found very similar, i.e., ranging with values from 0.089 at 50 kV to 0.015 at 140 kV, while for GSO:Ce, n _C demonstrated a peak at 80 kV.     

Using room acoustical parameters for evaluating the quality of urban squares for open-air rock concerts

Sound quality research of urban squares used for open-air (rock) concerts is very scarce. In contrast to the study of (classical) concert halls, little is known about useful design parameters. For the design of the amplification system, the sound engineer currently often takes into account the desired sound pressure level only.In this study, the ability of existing room acoustical parameters to characterize urban squares acoustically is investigated. An independent parameter set is identified for specific use on such squares. Besides the distribution of the sound pressure level over the square, different impulse response related parameters such as the clarity, center time, reverberation time and bass ratio were considered. In addition, binaural measures were included to measure qualities related to human spatial hearing.This study is based on a measurement campaign, performed at five squares in Belgium before and during life rock concerts. Special attention was paid to the signal processing methodology, given the significant amount of environmental noise often found at such squares during measurements. The variation of these parameters is investigated in relation to the square geometry, the amplification set-up and the presence of delay-lines. Parameters like C₈₀, T₃₀, IACC_E3/L3 and ΔL_eq,A/C were shown to be very useful when characterizing the sound field at urban squares.

Laser Stark spectroscopy of the ν4 band of CH3C15N: Fermi resonance with 3ν83

Laser Stark spectra for the ν₄ band of CH₃C¹⁵N have been measured by using CO₂ and N₂O lasers. Almost 650 resonances have been assigned to about 140 ro-vibrational transitions with J′ ≤ 34 and K ≤ 11. An anomaly of the rotational structure around K = 7 has been proved to be due to a Fermi interaction by analyzing each K subband separately. Observed data have been fitted to a model which includes ν₄-3ν₈³ Fermi coupling by the method of least squares. The standard deviation of observed from calculated frequencies is 4.6 MHz. Molecular constants derived are also listed.     

Spin-spin and spin-other-orbit effects of optical spectra and the spin-Hamiltonian parameters for Cr ions in MgO crystals

An extended complete diagonalization method/microscopic spin-Hamiltonian (CDM/MSH) program has been developed, which is applicable for d³ ions at sites of tetragonal symmetry type I (C_4v, D_2d, D₄, D_4h) and trigonal symmetry type I (C_3v, D₃, D_3d). The Hamiltonian includes the spin-spin (SS) and spin-other-orbit (SOO) magnetic interactions besides the spin-orbit (SO) magnetic interaction usually taken into account. Utilizing the extended CDM/MSH program, the optical spectra, the spin-Hamiltonian (SH) parameters of the ground state ⁴B₁, and the splitting δ(²E) of the first excited ²E state for Cr³⁺ (3d³) ions at C_4v symmetry sites in MgO crystals have been successfully investigated. It is found that although the SO magnetic interaction is the most important one, the contributions to the SH parameters and the optical spectra from the SS and SOO magnetic interactions for Cr³⁺:MgO crystals are appreciable and should not be omitted, especially reaching 27.8% for the zero field splitting parameter D.     

Determination of the hematocrit of human blood from the spectral values of the coefficients of extinction and small-angle scattering

An easily automated method for the determination of the hematocrit C _V of human blood from the extinction and small-angle scattering coefficients measured at radiation wavelengths of 0.37, 0.76, and 0.98 μm of semiconductor laser sources is proposed. The method does not require the solution of inverse problems and a priori information on the refractive index of erythrocytes. The effects that the measurement errors of the optical characteristics of blood, the dispersion of the refractive index, and the variations in the parameters of the distribution function of erythrocytes have on the determination accuracy of C _V are estimated. The possibility of determining C _V of whole blood is demonstrated.     

New Identification of the Visible Bands of the C2 Swan System

The well known Swan system (d³Π_g-a³Π_u) of C₂ has been observed in absorption in a hollow cathode discharge in a mixture of C₂H₂ and helium. Three bands, (v′, v″)=(5, 7), (6, 8), and (7, 9), of the Swan system have been identified and rotationally analyzed. However, the transition wavenumbers are found not to be quite consistent with the literature values compiled by Phillips and Davis. The (7, 9) band has been observed and identified for the first time. New identifications of the (5, 7) and (6, 8) bands are presented. The observed wavenumbers are fit to the effective Hamiltonian derived by Brown and Merer for ³Π states. The molecular constants for both the upper and lower electronic states have been determined from the least squares fitting.     

Multi-beam method to increase the stability of bridge deflection measurement

The main limitation to the accuracy of the detection of a bridge deflection using laser-based optical solutions is atmospheric turbulence because of the laser beam propagation in ground proximity. The multi-beam method is presented to increase the stability of bridge deflection measurement. It is based on the use of a four-beam optical system and a subpixel resolution algorithm for the measurement of the deflection of a laser beam that propagates through the system. To obtain accurate results, different algorithms for measuring the position of the deflected beam in different optical systems are tested and compared. Based on this comparison, the four-beam method based on the macropixels iteration centroid and four-beam optical system is selected, and an accuracy of 0.16 pixels is obtained by the determination of the beam position in our setup. The proposed method is adopted to detect the bridge deflection and an accuracy of 0.01 mm is gained when the scintillation index C_n² is 3×10⁻⁴ m^−2/3.     

On the spectral frequency distribution of translational vibrations in a face-centered cubic lattice of the C60 fullerite

The spectral frequency distribution g(ω) of translational lattice vibrations in the face-centered cubic phase of the C₆₀ fullerite at T = 300 K is calculated by the superposition method. The contribution from the translational vibrations to the heat capacity C _V of the C₆₀ fullerite and the x-ray characteristic temperature gJ_R entering into the exponent of the Debye-Waller factor are determined using the calculated frequency distribution g(ω). The results of the calculations are in good agreement with experimental data. It is noted that the librational and intramolecular lattice vibrations observed in the C₆₀ fullerite do not contribute significantly to the temperature-induced decrease in the x-ray diffraction intensity at T = 300 K. The Grüneisen parameters γ_mod calculated from the x-ray diffraction data are consistent with the thermodynamic Grüneisen parameters γ_lat at temperatures T ≤ 80 K but substantially exceed those at T ≈ 300 K. New x-ray diffraction experiments are proposed for independently determining the anomalously large negative values of the parameter γ₀, which is actually an orientational analog of the Grüneisen parameter.     

High temperature enthalpy, heat capacity and other thermodynamic functions of solid InN

The heat capacity and the heat content of indium nitride were measured by Calvet calorimetry (305-390 K) and by drop calorimetry (427-774 K). The temperature dependence of the heat capacity in the form C_pm=43.886+8.194×10⁻³T−1.007×10⁶T⁻²+8.353×10⁷T⁻³(J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹) was derived by the least squares method from the experimental data. Furthermore, the standard molar entropy S⁰_m (298 K)=42.51 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹ was assessed taking into account the recently reported phonon density of states, low temperature C_pm and the current data. Thermodynamic functions calculated on the basis of our results and literature data on the heat of formation of InN are given.
