Using dynamic data exchange to exchange information between Visual Basic and Matlab : Application to a diode array spectrophotometer

Photodiode array spectrometers are increasingly being coupled to flow analysis and separation techniques. Computer programs are needed to control the data acquisition from each photodiode and to handle the data. The Microsoft Visual Basic programming language is used along with a DLL library and dynamic data exchange (DDE) to allow communication with the MATLAB computational environment.

Signals in chaos: A method for the cancellation of deterministic noise from discrete signals

In this paper we describe a method for separating a combination of a chaotic time series and a discrete-valued signal. The method uses a feedback technique stabilised using knowledge of the chaotic system and the discrete nature of the signal. It is not based on a linearization of the dynamics, and therefore, unlike previously proposed separation methods, does not require that the signal be small. Nor does it make any assumptions about the relative timescales of the signal and the chaotic time series.     

Dynamical symmetries inq-deformed quantum mechanics

The dynamical algebra of theq-deformed harmonic oscillator is constructed. As a result, we find the free deformed Hamiltonian as well as the Hamiltonian of the deformed oscillator as a complicated, momentum dependent interaction Hamiltonian in terms of the usual canonical variables. Furthermore we construct a welldefined algebraSU _q(1,1) with consistent conjugation properties and comultiplication. We obtain non lowest weight representations of this algebra.     

Convective Heat Transfer past Small Cylindrical Bodies

Convective heat transfer from an array of small, cylindrical bodies of arbitrary shape in an unbounded, two-dimensional domain is a singular perturbation problem involving an infinite logarithmic expansion in the small parameter ε, representing the order of magnitude of the size of the bodies. Using the method of matched asymptotic expansions, we formulate a hybrid asymptotic-numerical method to solve for the dimensionless, steady-state temperature. We assume that the velocity field of the fluid surrounding the bodies is arbitrary but known. From our asymptotic solution for an arbitrary velocity field, we present the results for two special cases: a uniform flow field and a simple shear flow field. We demonstrate the asymptotic results of the hybrid method through a number of examples and, in a particular case, we compare these results to an exact analytical solution.     

Enumeration of three-dimensional convex polygons

A self-avoiding polygon (SAP) on a graph is an elementary cycle. Counting SAPs on the hypercubic lattice ℤ ^d withd≥2, is a well-known unsolved problem, which is studied both for its combinatorial and probabilistic interest and its connections with statistical mechanics. Of course, polygons on ℤ ^d are defined up to a translation, and the relevant statistic is their perimeter. A SAP on ℤ ^d is said to beconvex if its perimeter is “minimal”, that is, is exactly twice the sum of the side lengths of the smallest hyper-rectangle containing it. In 1984, Delest and Viennot enumerated convex SAPs on the square lattice [6], but no result was available in a higher dimension. We present an elementar approach to enumerate convex SAPs in any dimension. We first obtain a new proof of Delest and Viennot's result, which explains combinatorially the form of the generating function. We then compute the generating function for convex SAPs on the cubic lattice. In a dimension larger than 3, the details of the calculations become very cumbersome. However, our method suggests that the generating function for convex SAPs on ℤ ^d is always a quotient ofdifferentiably finite power series.     

Preparation and Eh--pH diagrams of Fe(II)--Fe(III) green rust compounds; hyperfine interaction characteristics and stoichiometry of hydroxy-chloride, -sulphate and -carbonate

Fe(II)--Fe(III) hydroxy-chloride, -sulphate and -carbonate were prepared by oxidation of a ferrous hydroxide precipitate in anion-containing aqueous solutions. The compounds are characterized by monitoring the redox potential E_h and the pH of stochiometric suspension vs time with the appropriate concentration ratios. X-ray diffraction allows us to characterize the crystal structure by distinguishing “green rust one” (GR1) from “green rust two” (GR2). Since green rusts (GRs) are of a pyroaurite-sjögrenite-like structure, i.e., consisting of intercalated foreign anions and water molecules in the interlayers between the brucite-like layers of Fe(OH)₂, their chemical formulae can be determined from the Mössbauer spectra. Three quadrupole doublets are observed: D₁ and D₂ correspond to a ferrous state with isomershift IS of about 1.27 mm s^-1 and quadrupole splittings QS of about 2.85 and 2.60 mm s^-1, respectively, whereas D₃ corresponds to a ferric state with IS and QS of about 0.4 mm s^-1. The hyperfine parameters of these doublets are similar from one green rust to another but their intensity ratios vary considerably. Finally, E_h and pH equilibrium diagrams of the Fe species in the presence of chloride, sulphate and carbonate anions contained within the water solution are drawn and the thermodynamic conditions of existence and degrees of oxidation of green rusts are discussed.     

A Deformation-Theoretical Approach to Weyl Quantization on Riemannian Manifolds

By using a sheaf-theoretical language, we introduce a notion of deformation quantization allowing not only for formal deformation parameters but also for real or complex ones as well. As a model for this approach to deformation quantization, we construct a quantization scheme for cotangent bundles of Riemannian manifolds. Here, we essentially use a complete symbol calculus for pseudodifferential operators on a Riemannian manifold. Depending on a scaling parameter, our quantization scheme corresponds to normally ordered, Weyl or antinormally ordered quantization. Finally, it is shown that our quantization scheme induces a family of pairwise isomorphic strongly closed star products on a cotangent bundle.
