Theoretical study on longitudinally pumped Yb3+:Y2O3 lasers

To optimize the performance of longitudinally pumped Yb3+:Y2O3 ceramic lasers, cavity parameters such as material length and output coupler transmission at a certain laser output power are calculated numerically using quasi-three-level laser model. The results show great potential of Yb3+:Y2O3 ceramics for highly efficient diode-pumped solid-state lasers.     

Nonlinear spectrum reshaping and gap-soliton-train trapping in optically induced photonic structures

We report the first theoretical prediction and experimental demonstration of gap soliton trains in a self-defocusing photonic lattice. Without a priori spectral or phase engineering, a stripe beam whose spatial power spectrum lies only in one transverse direction evolves into a gap soliton train with power spectrum growing also in the orthogonal direction due to nonlinear transport and spectrum reshaping. Our results suggest that, in nonlinear k-space evolution, energy can transfer not only between regions of normal and anomalous diffraction, but also from initially excited regions to initially unexcited regions.     

Comparison of Yb-doped fiber laser with one-end and double-end pumping configuration

A high-power Ytterbium-doped fiber laser (YDFL) with homemade double clad fiber (DCF) is introduced in this paper. The output power characteristics of a linear cavity fiber laser have been studied theoretically by solving the rate equations and experimentally tested with single- and double-end-pumping configurations. When both ends of the fiber are pumped by two high-power laser diodes with a launched power of 300 W each, a maximum CW output of 444 W is obtained with a slope efficiency of 75%.

影响无网格方法求解精度的因素分析

基于移动最小二乘法的无网格方法的计算精度除受到节点的分布密度和基底函数的阶次影响外，还受到其它因素的影响，其中权函数的选取、权函数影响域的大小及位移边界条件的引入对计算精度影响较大。本文分析了几种常用权函数在数值计算时的特点，包括计算精度、收敛情况、计算效率等，同时分析了影响域大小及边界条件的引入对计算精度的影响。通过分析给出了确定权函数及其影响域大小的方法。当受约束的自由度较多时，通过配点法引入位移边界条件会引起计算结果的振荡，通过施加稳定项可以消除振荡现象，通过对带孔方板的受力分析证明了其可行性。应用以上结论对J23—10曲柄压力机机身进行了受力分析，应力集中部位的计算结果得到了较高的精度。     

表面裂纹准静态扩展的有限元模拟计算

由于现有断裂准则未能考虑表面裂纹前沿各点实际断裂阻力的变化，所作的表面裂纹准静态扩展模拟计算不能很好地预测几何形貌的真实变化规律。本文提出了一个考虑应力状态不同对实际断裂阻力影响的变阻力断裂准则；并以该准则作为表面裂纹前沿局部断裂扩展的判据，通过三维有限元法进行了表面裂纹准静态扩展的模拟计算；还将模拟预测值与用多试件法测得的实验值进行比较，验证了变阻力断裂准则作为裂纹稳态扩展判据的有效性     

ADAPTIVE MESHLESS METHOD BASED ON LOCAL FIT TECHNOLOGY

An h-adaptive meshless method is proposed in this paper. The error estimation is based on local fit technology, usually confined to Voronoi Cells. The error is achieved by comparison of the computational results with smoothed ones, which are projected with Taylor series. Voronoi Cells are introduced not only for integration of potential energy but also for guidance of refinement.New nodes are placed within those cells with high estimated error. At the end of the paper, two numerical examples with severe stress gradient are analyzed. Through adaptive analysis accurate results are obtained at critical subdomains, which validates the efficiency of the method.

The educational needs and professional roles of Canadian physicians and nurses regarding genetic testing and adult onset hereditary disease

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the knowledge, professional involvement and confidence of Canadian nurses and physicians in providing genetic services for adult onset hereditary disease. METHODS: 1,425 physicians and 1,425 nurses received a mailed questionnaire with reminders. The response rates were 50% (n = 543) and 79% (n = 975), respectively. RESULTS: Forty-eight percent of physicians and 31% of nurses lacked formal education in genetics. Respondents reported being involved in caring for people at risk for adult onset hereditary disease. Their levels of confidence that they could perform tasks, such as counselling about predictive genetic tests, however, were lower than their levels of expectation that it would be important for them to provide these services. CONCLUSIONS: The expected roles and educational needs of Canadian nurses and physicians have broad areas of overlap suggesting the possibility of combined professional education programs and multiple ways of organizing teams to provide genetic services to people at risk for adult onset hereditary disease.
