Exact gravitational field of the infinitely long rotating hollow cylinder

The vacuum line element inside an infinitely long rotating hollow cylinder is the usual flat space line element. It is fitted in a most general way to the general cylindrical vacuum field outside at the singular hypersurfaceR ₀=const, representing the infinitely thin hollow cylinder. With the use of the jump conditions atR ₀=const the surface densities , of which the energy-momentum-stress tensor of the shell consists, are calculated. The physical properties of the cylinder, as derived from the eigenvalues and -vectors of , and the generated gravitational field are discussed in full detail.     

Impulse response of an infinitely long thick strip plate

This paper is a study of the dynamic response of an infinitely long thick strip plate subjected to an impulsive load. The plate is simply supported along the edges and resting on an elastic foundation. The problem is studied on the basis of a plate theory in which the effects of rotatory inertias and shear deformations are retained. Governing equations are solved by applying the methods of the Laplace transform with respect to time and the Fourier transform with respect to a longitudinal space variable. Dynamic coefficients (maximum dynamic displacement/static displacement, maximum dynamic bending moment/static bending moment) are calculated numerically for plates subjected to a step line load and shown graphically for various values of the parameters included.     

On the theory of radiation of an infinitely long charged current-carrying thread in a uniaxial transparent crystal

The problem relating to the synchrotron radiation of a charged current-carrying thread in a uniaxial transparent crystal is considered here using the Sitenko-Kolomensky method. The formulas for the intensity of the synchrotron radiation and the limiting values of the formulas giving the intensity of the Cerenkov radiation of a thread moving uniformly and rectilinearly parallel to the optical axis of a crystal have been derived.     

Hydroelastic oscillations of a viscous infinitely long liquid column

The coupled frequencies of hydroelastic systems in zero gravity consisting of an elastic shell and a viscous liquid layer with a free surface have been treated. The system exhibits either an annular liquid layer around an elastic cylindrical center shell or a liquid layer inside an elastic infinitely long container. The first case has been evaluated numerically, where the influence of the liquid surface tension parameter, the elasticity parameter of the shell, its axial deflection wave length l and the thickness of the layer have been determined. In contrast to the hydroelastic system with an ideal liquid, the system with viscous liquid exhibits instability of the liquid surface as well as the shell.     

A perturbation theory study of electron vortices in electromagnetic fields: The case of infinitely long line charge and magnetic dipole

The novel discovery of electron vortices carrying quantized orbital angular momentum motivated intensive research of their basic properties as well as applications, e.g. structural characterization of magnetic materials. In this paper, the fundamental interactions of electron vortices within infinitely long atomic-column-like electromagnetic fields are studied based on the relativistically corrected Pauli–Schrödinger equation and the perturbation theory. The relative strengths of three fundamental interactions, i.e. the electron–electric potential interaction, the electron–magnetic potential/field interaction and the spin–orbit coupling are discussed. The results suggest that the perturbation energies of the last two interactions are in an order of 10³–10⁴ smaller than that of the first one for electron vortices. In addition, it is also found that the strengths of these interactions are strongly dependant on the spatial distributions of the electromagnetic field as well as the electron vortices.     

Critical temperature of infinitely long chains from Wertheim's perturbation theory

Wertheim's theory is used to determine the critical properties of chains formed by m tangent spheres interacting through the pair potential u(r). It is shown that within Wertheim's theory the critical temperature and compressibility factor reach a finite non-zero value for infinitely long chains, whereas the critical density and pressure vanish as m ^-1.5. Analysing the zero density limit of Wertheim's equation or state for chains it is found that the critical temperature of the infinitely long chain can be obtained by solving a simple equation which involves the second virial coefficient of the reference monomer fluid and the second virial coefficient between a monomer and a dimer. According to Wertheim's theory, the critical temperature of an infinitely long chain (i.e. the Θ temperature) corresponds to the temperature where the second virial coefficient of the monomer is equal to 2/3 of the second virial coefficient between a monomer and dimer. This is a simple and useful result. By computing the second virial coefficient of the monomer and that between a monomer and a dimer, we have determined the Θ temperature that follows from Wertheim's theory for several kinds of chains. In particular, we have evaluated Θ for chains made up of monomer units interacting through the Lennard-Jones potential, the square well potential and the Yukawa potential. For the square well potential, the Θ temperature that follows from Wertheim's theory is given by a simple analytical expression. It is found that the ratio of Θ to the Boyle and critical temperatures of the monomer decreases with the range of the potential.     

On the significance of reflection coefficients produced by active surfaces bounding one-dimensional sound fields

Active boundary surfaces intended to control reverberation or other characteristics of enclosed sound fields have often been investigated using plane wave tubes. This paper presents an analysis of actively terminated semi-infinite and finite-length plane wave tubes to provide needed clarification of the effects of these surfaces. By considering relationships between complex pressure-amplitude reflection coefficients and acoustic energy quantities, the investigation reveals that increases in reflection coefficient moduli at terminations do not always produce corresponding increases in total energy or energy flux in adjacent fields. These relationships are shown to depend upon physical properties of the acoustic spaces, sources, and source positions. The investigation also demonstrates how the impact of reflection coefficients with moduli exceeding unity may be easily misinterpreted.     

On the vertical structure of the sound field in a canonical waveguide at long ranges

The geometrical-acoustics approach is used to calculate the vertical structure of the sound field in an oceanic waveguide. The profile of the sound speed is specified to be canonical and range-independent along a 1000-km propagation path. A monochromatic sound source lies on the waveguide axis. It is shown that, at long distances from the source, the sound field formed by the water-path rays is mainly concentrated in the caustics, the number of which is determined by the number of the overlapping ray cycles at a given distance. A method for estimating the amplitude of the sound field produced by individual rays is proposed. The amplitudes obtained are used to calculate the total sound field along the vertical. A possible cause of the chaotic distribution of ray coordinates is considered. This cause may consist in the arbitrary choice of the number of rays and their departure angles without taking into account the discrete character of one of the variables. This mechanism of ray chaos formation furnishes an explanation for the fact that the chaos obtained in calculations is mainly associated with the flat rays.     

The coherence of reverberant sound fields

A new method of measuring spatial correlation functions in reverberant sound fields is presented. It is shown that coherence functions determined with appropriate spectral resolution contain the same information as the corresponding correlation functions, and that measuring such coherence functions is a far more efficient way of obtaining this information. The technique is then used to verify theoretical predictions of the spatial correlation between various components of the particle velocity in a diffuse sound field. Other possible applications of the technique are discussed and illustrated with experimental results obtained in an ordinary room.     

Estimation of the long term average sound level from hourly average sound levels

It is shown how to estimate the long-term average sound level, L_AeqLT (for free flowing road traffic) from measurements of the hourly A-weighted equivalent sound level, L_Aeq1h. To estimate the parameters of the model which describe noise emission and attenuation, concurrent measurements of L_Aeq1h at two distances from the considered road are needed. A semi-empirical formula is derived for L_AeqLT approximation. Also the uncertainty of this approximation is given as a function the distance from the road and receiver height.     

On calculation of sound fields around three dimensional objects by integral equation methods

This paper is concerned with the use of integral equation methods in numerical calculations of exterior sound fields around scattering objects. The objects investigated are a rigid body with edges and vertices, a rigid plate, and an absorbing body. For each case integral equation solutions are developed, derived from Green's formula, and its normal derivative form, and the numerical results are found to agree with measurements. The method of limiting conductance is tested and it is found that the normal derivative form results show better agreement with measurements than those from the ordinary formulation. Other problems which arose in the calculations are also considered: e.g., evaluation of the normal derivatives of the double layer potential, treatment of edges and vertices of three dimensional objects, and the relative merits of the two formulations in practical applications.     

Numerical modeling of the sound fields in urban squares

This paper studies the basic characteristics of sound fields in urban squares surrounded by reflecting building fa?ades and the effectiveness of architectural changes and urban design options. A radiosity model and an image source model are developed, and a parametric study is carried out in hypothetical squares. The results show that the reverberation time (RT) is rather even in a square, whereas the early decay time (EDT) is very low in the near field, and then becomes close to RT after a rapid increase. Compared to diffuse boundaries, with geometrical boundaries the RT and EDT are significantly longer and the sound pressure level (SPL) attenuation with distance is generally smaller unless the height/side ratio is high. With a boundary diffusion coefficient of 0.2, the sound field is already close to that resulting from purely diffusely reflecting boundaries. The SPL in far field is typically 6-9 dB lower if the square side is doubled; 8 dB lower if the height of building fa?ades is decreased from 50 m to 6 m (diffuse boundaries); 5 dB (diffuse boundaries) or 2 dB (geometrical boundaries) lower if the length/width ratio is increased from 1 to 4; and 10-12 dB lower if the boundary absorption coefficient is increased from 0.1 to 0.9.     

Analysis of the radiated information in spinning sound fields

The information content of a spinning sound field is analyzed using a combination of exact and asymptotic results, in order to set limits on how accurately source identification can be carried out. Using a transformation of the circular source to an exactly equivalent set of line source modes, given by Chebyshev polynomials, it is found that the line source modes of order greater than the source wavenumber generate exponentially small fields. Asymptotic analysis shows that the remaining, lower order, modes radiate efficiently only into a region around the source plane, with this region shrinking as the mode order is increased. The results explain the ill-conditioning of source identification methods; the successful use of low order models in active noise control; and the low radiation efficiency of subsonic jets.
