Field measurement of airborne sound insulation between rooms with non-diffuse sound fields at low frequencies

Procedures for the field measurement of airborne sound insulation between rooms with diffuse fields are described in International Standard ISO 140-4. However, many dwellings contain rooms with volumes less than 50 m³, where low frequency measurements are less reliable; hence there is a need for a measurement procedure to improve the reliability of field measurements in rooms with non-diffuse fields. Procedures are proposed for sound pressure level and reverberation time measurements for the 50, 63 and 80 Hz third octave bands. The sound pressure level measurement combines corner microphone positions with positions in the central region of each room. This provides a good estimate of the room average sound pressure level with significantly improved repeatability.

计算光谱成像技术的成像质量评价

计算光谱成像是一种新型的光谱成像技术,具有高通量、快照式成像等优点,但关于其成像质量评价的研究还很少。工作中探索了一种计算光谱成像系统成像质量的定量评价方法。该方法利用ISO 12233靶标作为目标源,进行成像、图谱信息重构,并通过测量重构图的调制传递函数(MTF)作为计算光谱成像系统的成像质量评价标准。结果表明,对于单帧采样,随着混叠谱段数的增加,重构图MTF迅速下降,当混叠波段的数目达到9个时,重构图MTF与目标场景图像相比已下降50%。该研究有助于理解计算光谱成像技术的优缺点,合理安排混叠谱段的数量,以精确地复原目标信息。     

Four vignettes on interactions with Martin Seah: The impact of his work

Four brief vignettes briefly describe ways that Dr. Martin Seah influenced my career and those of many others. These brief stories highlight aspects of his (i) career-long contributions to the quantification and accuracy of surface analysis, (ii) ability to identify and willingness to fill information gaps and needs, (iii) significant efforts to communicate the nature of the challenges and what was known about best practices in an engaging and often humorous manner, and (iv) many delightful professional and social interactions that also contributed to community impact.     

The degradation and local tissue effects of collagen hydrogel and sponge implants in muscle

Collagen products will degrade and evoke certain local tissue reaction after being implanted. ISO 10993.6 is the international standard to evaluate local tissue reaction for biomaterials. However, even in the present version, it does not define the specific view fields for scoring local tissue reaction in the sections, which may influence the fair evaluation for the degradable polymer, such as collagen. In this study, 4 kinds of collagens and 2 kinds of bio-inert products were implanted into the rabbit muscle for 26 weeks, and two different scoring methods (uniform distribution scoring method and area locating scoring method) were applied to evaluate the local tissue reaction for each implant. The results showed that the tissue reaction on the interface was active, but the various scores in the implant and surrounding areas could help us to understand the differences of the degradation process. An area locating scoring method which selected the fields in the implant, interface and surroundings respectively showed a higher total score and offered more detailed information compared to the uniform distribution scoring method. Since the degradation and tissue reaction degree in the different areas are ever changing for the degradable implants, this area locating scoring method is sensitive, effective and applicable for the semi-quantitative evaluating system of ISO 10993.6.

A Note on the Multivariate Normal Hazard

The ISO* property of noncentrality parameters is derived for the expected value of an ISO* function of independent nonnegative two-parameter compound Poisson random variables and is then applied to unbiasedness of tests and monotonicity of power functions of tests in an order-restricted hypothesis testing problem for the noncentrality parameter. The ISO* property and the Schur convexity are also studied for a class of two-parameter distributions which has the additive property (i.e., is closed under convolution) and contains the one-parameter family with the semigroup property as a special case.
