Relative Intensity Noise in Optical Single Side Band Systems with Multiple In-Line Amplifiers: Analysis and Validation

This article analyzes and validates through simulation the influence of fiber nonlinearity, dispersion, and loss on the Relative Noise Intensity (RIN) spectrum at fiber output in externally modulated optical single side band (OSSB) systems. The analysis includes the RIN generated by the laser source, the effect of the OSSB modulator, and noise generated by the in-line optical amplifiers. The analysis takes into account conversion between phase noise and intensity noise introduced by fiber transmission. It is shown that, depending on the operating conditions, the system performance may be predominantly affected either by the laser RIN or by the noise generated by the in-line optical amplifiers. The impact of the OSSB modulator can be relevant when the RIN of the system is dominated by the laser noise and should therefore be considered.     

Magnetic entropy change in GdCo13−xSix intermetallic compounds

The magnetic entropy change in GdCo_13−xSi_x (x=3.8, 4, 4.1, and 4.2) intermetallic compounds has been investigated by means of magnetic measurements in the vicinity of their Curie temperature. It was found that the magnetic ordering temperatures decrease from 60 K at x=3.8 to 28 K for x=4.2. The magnetic entropy change is calculated from isothermal magnetization versus magnetic field at various temperatures using the Maxwell relation. As a result, the maximum magnetic entropy changes of the investigated compounds, at their Curie temperatures, decrease from 11.5 J/kg K for x=4.2 to 6.86 J/kg K for x=3.8 in a field change of 0-3 T, whereas it decreases from 5.13 J/kg K for x=4.2 to 2.60 J/kg K for x=3.8 in a field change of 0-1 T. Moreover, the maximum value of the magnetic entropy change obtained at a higher field for GdCo_13−xSi_x with x=4 (23.75 J/kg K at 5 T) is comparable to that of various types of compounds with a cubic NaZn₁₃-type structure. Finally, the maximum of the magnetic entropy change is found to decrease with increasing Si content.     

The Tunneling Radiation Characteristics of Kerr-Newman de Sitter Black Hole

The strictly thermal spectrum in dragging coordinate system and the tunneling radiation characteristics of stationary axisymmetry Kerr-Newman de Sitter black hole is studied. The result shows that the tunneling rates at the event and cosmological horizon are related to the change of Bekenstein-Hawking entropy and that the factual radiation spectrum is not strictly pure thermal. Thus an exact correction to the Hawking thermal spectrum is present.     

On the derivation of the entropy of ideal quantum gases confined in a three-dimensional harmonic potential

In this work,the entropy functions of ideal quantum gases in a three-dimensional harmonic trap are analytically calculated using temperature as an explicit variable.Afterward,the applicability of the analytical formulas is validated by comparison with the numerical calculation.The results illustrate that the obtained functions could be applied for the whole temperature regime with a maximum relative deviation of less than 7.5%in the vicinity of the critical temperature Tcin the case of Bose gases.Meanwhile,for Fermi gases,although the analytical formula fits well at very low-and high-temperature regimes,it cannot be applied at temperature in the range[0.3-0.5]T_F,where T_F is the Fermi temperature.In addition,the consistency between our formulas and classical ones at significantly high temperatures is also discussed.     

Subshifts on Infinite Alphabets and Their Entropy

We analyze symbolic dynamics to infinite alphabets by endowing the alphabet with the cofinite topology. The topological entropy is shown to be equal to the supremum of the growth rate of the complexity function with respect to finite subalphabets. For the case of topological Markov chains induced by countably infinite graphs, our approach yields the same entropy as the approach of Gurevich We give formulae for the entropy of countable topological Markov chains in terms of the spectral radius in l2.     

Noise Reduction in Spur Gear Systems

This article lists some tips for reducing gear case noise. With this aim, a static analysis was carried out in order to describe how stresses resulting from meshing gears affect the acoustic emissions. Different parameters were taken into account, such as the friction, material, and lubrication, in order to validate ideas from the literature and to make several comparisons. Furthermore, a coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian (CEL) analysis was performed, which was an innovative way of evaluating the sound pressure level of the aforementioned gears. Different parameters were considered again, such as the friction, lubrication, material, and rotational speed, in order to make different research comparisons. The analytical results agreed with those in the literature, both for the static analysis and CEL analysis—for example, it was shown that changing the material from steel to ductile iron improved the gear noise, while increasing the rotational speed or the friction increased the acoustic emissions. Regarding the CEL analysis, air was considered a perfect gas, but its viscosity or another state equation could have also been taken into account. Therefore, the above allowed us to state that research into these scientific fields will bring about reliable results.     

Dynamical Analysis of a New Chaotic Fractional Discrete-Time System and Its Control

This article proposes a new fractional-order discrete-time chaotic system, without equilibria, included two quadratic nonlinearities terms. The dynamics of this system were experimentally investigated via bifurcation diagrams and largest Lyapunov exponent. Besides, some chaotic tests such as the 0–1 test and approximate entropy (ApEn) were included to detect the performance of our numerical results. Furthermore, a valid control method of stabilization is introduced to regulate the proposed system in such a way as to force all its states to adaptively tend toward the equilibrium point at zero. All theoretical findings in this work have been verified numerically using MATLAB software package.     

Nonlinear Measures to Evaluate Upright Postural Stability: A Systematic Review

Conventional biomechanical analyses of human movement have been generally derived from linear mathematics. While these methods can be useful in many situations, they fail to describe the behavior of the human body systems that are predominately nonlinear. For this reason, nonlinear analyses have become more prevalent in recent literature. These analytical techniques are typically investigated using concepts related to variability, stability, complexity, and adaptability. This review aims to investigate the application of nonlinear metrics to assess postural stability. A systematic review was conducted of papers published from 2009 to 2019. Databases searched were PubMed, Google Scholar, Science-Direct and EBSCO. The main inclusion consisted of: Sample entropy, fractal dimension, Lyapunov exponent used as nonlinear measures, and assessment of the variability of the center of pressure during standing using force plate. Following screening, 43 articles out of the initial 1100 were reviewed including 33 articles on sample entropy, 10 articles on fractal dimension, and 4 papers on the Lyapunov exponent. This systematic study shows the reductions in postural regularity related to aging and the disease or injures in the adaptive capabilities of the movement system and how the predictability changes with different task constraints.
