Solution of the hyperbolic mild‐slope equation using the finite volume method

A finite volume solver for the 2D depth‐integrated harmonic hyperbolic formulation of the mild‐slope equation for wave propagation is presented and discussed. The solver is implemented on unstructured triangular meshes and the solution methodology is based upon a Godunov‐type second‐order finite volume scheme, whereby the numerical fluxes are computed using Roe's flux function. The eigensystem of the mild‐slope equations is derived and used for the construction of Roe's matrix. A formulation that updates the unknown variables in time implicitly is presented, which produces a more accurate and reliable scheme than hitherto available. Boundary conditions for different types of boundaries are also derived. The agreement of the computed results with analytical results for a range of wave propagation/transformation problems is very good, and the model is found to be virtually paraxiality‐free.

Objective acoustic voice-quality parameters in the computer phonetogram

A phonetogram is a plot of the dynamic range of the voice as a function of fundamental frequency. Traditionally, the phonetogram only records the sound-pressure level (SPL) of the threshold of phonation and the upper limit in SPL the voice can reach with sustained phonation as a function of the fundamental frequency (F₀). In this study, the phonetogram is extended by including acoustic voice-quality parameters. Three additional parameters are tested: jitter, shimmer, and crest factor. For each individual voice, the variation in the three parameters is evaluated over the entire phonetogram area. By averaging individual phonetograms, standard or norm phonetograms are obtained revealing general patterns in voice-quality variation. These patterns reflect the complex relations between F₀, SPL, and the acoustic voice-quality parameters just mentioned. Jitter and shimmer distributions over the phonetogram show that large variations in perturbation values can be expected when production conditions are altered. Highest perturbation values are found for the low F₀ and low SPL phonations. For all voices, a gradual decrease of the crest factor is found with increasing F₀, reflecting the degrading of spectral complexity with F₀. The crest-factor parameter can also be used to mark those areas in the phonetogram where the fundamental dominates the waveform and where flow control is the main SPL regulating mechanism in voice production. The strong quality variations within the phonetogram stress the need for accurate control of F₀ and SPL in objective voice-quality measurement.

Bahadur efficiency and robustness of studentized score tests

We derive the exact Bahadur slopes of studentized score tests for a simple null hypothesis in a one-parameter family of distributions. The Student's t-test is included as a special case for which a recent result of Rukhin (1993, Sankhy Ser. A, 55, 159–163) was improved upon. It is shown that locally optimal Bahadur efficiency for one-sample location models with a known or estimated scale parameter is attained within the class of studentized score tests. The studentized test has an asymptotic null distribution free of the scale parameter, and the optimality of likelihood scores does not depend on the existence of a moment generating function. We also consider the influence function and breakdown point of such tests as part of our robustness investigation. The influence of any studentized score test is bounded from above, indicating certain degree of robustness of validity, but a bounded score function is needed to cap the influence from below and to ensure a high power breakdown point. We find that the standard Huber-type score tests are not only locally minimax in Bahadur efficiency, but also very competitive in global efficiency at a variety of location models.     

Ground state solutions for Klein–Gordon–Maxwell system with steep potential well

In this paper, we study the following Klein–Gordon–Maxwell system $\left\{\begin{array}{c}-\Delta u+(\lambda a\left(x\right)+1)u-(2\omega +\varphi )\varphi u=f(x,u),\mathrm{in}{\mathbb{R}}^3,\hfill \\ -\Delta \varphi =-(\omega +\varphi )u^2,\mathrm{in}{\mathbb{R}}^3.\hfill \end{array}\right.$Using variational methods, we obtain the existence of ground state solutions under some appropriate assumptions on $a$ and $f$.

新疆天山北坡典型研究区融雪期地物光谱特征分析

地物的波谱特性乃是整个遥感技术的物理基础,更是遥感技术应用尤其是定量遥感的基石。由于融雪期静态地物与冰-雪-水等动态地物交互存在,地物光谱特征更为复杂。选取了新疆天山北坡乌鲁木齐河流域以及军塘湖流域作为典型研究区,采用美国CID公司生产的CI700便携式野外光谱仪,通过2006年到2009年融雪期大量的野外调查和实地测量,获取了新疆天山北坡典型研究区融雪期典型地物包括各种积雪、冰、水以及土壤的光谱曲线及其变化规律,并对其进行了光谱特征分析。结果表明,融雪期虽然地物类型较为单一,但是因为积雪-冰-水-土壤复杂系统的交互式影响,地物的光谱特性及其变化均较为复杂,给融雪期地表参数的定量遥感研究带来了较大的挑战。对于融雪期复杂地物光谱的系列观测及特征分析无论是对于地物光谱特征基础研究还是定量遥感应用研究均具有重要意义。
