Differential FBG sensor for temperature-compensated high-pressure (or displacement) measurement

A differential fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor with a free active element bulk-modulus for high-pressure (or displacement) measurement is presented. Based on the differential measurement method and an isosceles triangle cantilever structure, problems of cross-sensitivity and chirped signal in FBG sensor are improved both theoretically and experimentally. Preliminary experiments indicate that temperature-compensated measurement results agree well with the theoretical analysis. Displacement measurement sensitivity is 1.75 pm/μm, and the estimated pressure measurement resolution can reach 0.27 MPa in case the wavelength shift measurement resolution is 0.01 nm.     

Problem of the free oscillations of a capillary bridge

The free oscillations of a capillary bridge whose equilibrium shape is determined by the surface tension forces and the static gravity field are investigated. The values of 25 “lower” levels of the spectrum of natural oscillations of the capillary bridge are found for various control parameters in accordance with the experimental conditions.     

On locating low altitude moving targets using a planar acoustic sensor array

It is of engineering importance to locate low altitude moving targets with acoustic methods due to the blindness of the traditional radar detecting. In this paper, an algorithm for locating low altitude moving targets is put forward based on a five-element planar acoustic sensor array. The method is realized through estimations of the sensor-to-sensor time delays of the source signal generated by the low altitude moving target. The angle and range estimation performance of the proposed method are analyzed, respectively, both in theoretical and numerical sense.     

Synthesis of some chiral liquid crystals and study of the effect of intramolecular hydrogen bonding on the phase behaviour

The synthesis of three new series of chiral Schiff's bases containing benzilideneaniline and 2-hydroxybenzilideneaniline moieties as mesogenic cores is presented. Differential scanning calorimetry, optical polarizing microscopy and X-ray diffraction measurements were used to study the phase transition temperatures and behaviour. The results reveal that most of these materials show chiral smectic mesomorphism.     

Temperature anomaly of the Cd hyperfine field in a trivacancy complex in Ni

The temperature dependence of the Cd hyperfine field in a trivacancy complex in Ni between 25 and300 K is reported. It was found that, unlike the Cd substitutional field in Ni which follows the temperature dependence of the magnetization, the Cd hyperfine field in a trivacancy complex is essentially temperature independent. This temperature anomaly is compared with other temperature anomaly of impurity hyperfine fields in ferromagnetic hosts.

First observation of yrast band in odd-odd162Lu

High spin states of the odd-odd¹⁶²Lu nucleus have been studied via¹⁴⁷Sm(¹⁹F,4nγ)¹⁶²Lu reaction at 95 MeV beam energy. Level scheme for yrast band based onπ[h_11/2 v[i_13/2] quasiparticle configuration was established up to I ^π = (23^?) for the first time. This band shows the signature inversion in energy before backbending generally appeared in this mass region. It is stressed that the signature splitting in¹⁶²Lu is larger than that in the¹⁶⁰Tm nucleus.
