Approximate Conditions and Passage to the Limit in Sobolev Spaces over Thin and Composite Structures

Approximate properties of variable measures compose a base of the two-scale convergence method with respect to a variable measure, which is used in averaging on periodic thin and composite structures. The paper gives a survey of methods for verifying approximate properties. The main focus is on studying composite measures, which have been little studied. __________ Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika i Ee Prilozheniya (Contemporary Mathematics and Its Applications), Vol. 16, Partial Differential Equations, 2004.     

ACTIVE CONTROL OF ENVIRONMENTAL NOISE, VII: PERFORMANCE OF MULTI-FREQUENCY, MULTI-CHANNEL, FREEFIELD SOUND CANCELLING SYSTEMS

The paper considers the performance of multi-frequency, multi-channel, free field sound cancelling systems for the reduction of discrete frequency and periodic noise. The approach uses a method of directional active noise control. Large sound reductions from these systems have been made possible through: (a) synthetically generating the cancelling sound and synchronizing with the primary source; (b) automatic alignment of all stability regions of the control system and; (c) avoiding instability produced by these multi-channel systems.     

pp interactions in P-wave and related topics

The nucleon-antinucleon (NN) annihilation process provides a fertile testing ground for microscopic hadron exchange and/or quark models. TheNN system offers a rich ensemble of annihilation channels, whose relative BRs provide strong constraints on dynamical models. Recent experiments show that values of BRs display a significant dependence onL, S andI. These dynamical selection rules,i.e. the suppression of transitions alloweda priori by conservation of quantum numbers, provide key signatures of the annihilation mechanism, and suggest dynamical content beyond simple statistical or flavour symmetry models.

Nonlinear magneto-optical diffraction by two-dimensional magnetic superstructures

Nonlinear (at the second-harmonic frequency of the incident light) optical reflection by two-dimensional magnetic superstructures is theoretically studied. A square lattice of magnetic dots and a hexagonal lattice of magnetic bubbles (cylindrical magnetic domains) are considered. Because the periods of these structures are comparable with the wavelengths of the fundamental and the second-harmonic radiation, it would be possible to observe diffraction at the second-harmonic frequency. A polarization analysis of nonlinearly diffracted radiation is performed and the numbers of observable diffraction orders for the above structures are estimated.

Minimax estimators of spectral intensities of acoustic sources

We investigate some issues of minimax estimation of spectral intensity of acoustic sources in cases when the noise and the spectral amplitudes satisfy quadratic constraints. Recursive minimax filters are obtained.Translated from Vychislitel'naya i Prikladnaya Matematika, No. 58, pp. 116–119, 1986.
