Analysis of nasal consonants using perceptual linear prediction.

Until recently, speech analysis techniques have been built around the all-pole linear predictive model. This study examines the effectiveness of using the perceptual linear predictive method for analyzing nasal consonants. Six speakers (three men and three women) produced 300 CV syllables with initial nasal consonants /m/ and /n/. A threshold-based boundary detection algorithm was developed to extract nasal segments from the CV contexts. Poles of a fifth-order perceptual linear predictive model were calculated and the frequency of the second pole was used to characterize the place of articulation of nasal consonants. Results indicated that the frequency for the second transformed pole was significantly lower for /m/ than for /n/ and was independent of factors such as a vowel context and gender of the speaker. A nasal identification rate of 86% was obtained based on the frequency of the second pole. The use of the perceptual linear predictive method may thus overcome some difficulties associated with analyzing nasal consonants.     

Injection Molding Shrinkage and Mechanical Properties of Polypropylene Blends

Polypropylene (PP) blends based on isotactic polypropylene (iPP), propylene-ethylene block copolymer (bPP), and propylene–ethylene random copolymer (rPP) were prepared by melt blending and the effects of content of bPP and rPP on the shrinkage during solidification and storage and mechanical properties of the blends were studied. It was found that the addition of polypropylene copolymer could effectively reduce the processing shrinkage of iPP and the lowest shrinkage of the blends was achieved at a loading of 2 wt% bPP or rPP. The flexural modulus and tensile strength of the blends decreased a little while the impact strength and elongation at break were improved greatly compared with those of iPP.

Enhancement of ultrasonically initiated emulsion polymerization rate using aliphatic alcohols as hydroxyl radical scavengers

Ultrasonically initiated emulsion polymerization of styrene was carried out in the presence of aliphatic alcohols, e.g. methanol, ethanol, n-pronanol and n-butanol, as volatile hydroxyl radical scavengers. With the addition of methanol, the polymerization rate of styrene increased, while the molecular weight and the average particle size of the produced polystyrene decreased because more radicals were produced in the presence of methanol. This is true also for the other polymerization system using other aliphatic alcohols, such as ethanol, n-pronanol and n-butanol, suggesting that the alcohols enter into cavitation bubbles and further react with hydroxyl radicals (*OH) from the sonolysis of water to produce hydroxyalkyl radicals, so as to reduce the recombination of *H and *OH radicals, therefore more radicals will be present in the systems for initiating polymerization. Obviously, it is an effective way to enhance ultrasonically initiated emulsion polymerization rate of styrene by adding volatile hydroxyl radical scavenger.     

The preparation of c-axis epitaxial Bi-2212 films on STO(1 0 0) by sol-gel method

Bi₂Sr₂Ca₁Cu₂O_8+δ (Bi-2212) films were grown on (1 0 0) oriented SrTiO₃ (STO) substrate using sol-gel spin-coating method. The effects of heat treatment conditions and coating times on the phase formation and surface morphology were investigated using thermal analysis, optical microscope, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electronic microscopy. Mixed phases were formed from 820 to 840 °C, and Bi-2212 single phase was obtained at 830 °C for 3 h. c-axis epitaxial films with smooth surfaces were obtained by drying at 600 °C and coating for 5 times.     

A piecewise local regularized Richardson-Lucy algorithm for remote sensing image deconvolution

As it is not possible to obtain an accurate point spread function (PSF) in remote sensing imaging, classic deconvolution methods such as Wiener filtering often introduce strong noise and ringing artifacts, which contaminate the restored images. In this paper, we modify the standard Richarson-Lucy (RL) algorithm with a piecewise local regularization term and combine it with residual deconvolution method. Experimental results show that it is effective in suppressing negative effects, and images with rich details and sharp edges are obtained.     

CdSe quantum dots decorated by mercaptosuccinic acid as fluorescence probe for Cu

Water-soluble CdSe quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized using mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) as a stabilizer. The growth process and characterization of CdSe quantum dots were determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Results demonstrated the MSA-capped CdSe QDs were highly crystalline and possessed good optical properties. Further, the resulting products could be used as fluorescent probes to detect Cu²⁺ ions in physiological buffer solution. The response was linearly proportional to the concentration of Cu²⁺ ion in the range 2×10⁻⁸- 3.5×10⁻⁷ mol L⁻¹ with a detection limit of 3.4 nmol L⁻¹.     

Search for the radiative decays B-->rhogamma and B0-->omegagamma

A search of the exclusive radiative decays B-->rho(770)gamma and B0-->omega(782)gamma is performed on a sample of about 84x10(6) BBmacr; events collected by the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- storage ring. No significant signal is seen in any of the channels. We set upper limits on the branching fractions B of B(B0-->rho(0)gamma)<1.2 x 10(-6), B(B+-->rho+gamma)<2.1 x 10(-6), and B(B0-->omegagamma)<1.0 x 10(-6) at 90% confidence level (C.L.). Using the assumption that Gamma(B-->rhogamma)=Gamma(B+-->rho(+)gamma)=2 x Gamma(B0-->rho(0)gamma), we find the combined limit B(B-->rhogamma)<1.9 x 10(-6), corresponding to B(B-->rhogamma)/B(B-->K*gamma)<0.047 at 90% C.L.
