On fast radial propagation of parametrically excited geodesic acoustic mode
The spatial and temporal evolution of parametrically excited geodesic
acoustic mode (GAM) initial pulse is investigated both analytically and
numerically. Our results show that the nonlinearly excited GAM propagates at a
group velocity which is, typically, much larger than that due to finite ion
Larmor radius as predicted by the linear theory. The nonlinear dispersion
relation of GAM driven by a finite amplitude drift wave pump is also derived,
showing a nonlinear frequency increment of GAM. Further implications of these
findings for interpreting experimental observations are also discussed
The Relativistic Rotation
The classical rotation is not self-consistent in the framework of the special
theory of relativity. the Relativistic rotation is obtained, which takes the
relativistic effect into account. It is demonstrated that the angular frequency
of classical rotation is only valid in local approximation. The properties of
the relativistic rotation and the relativistic transverse Doppler shift are
discussed in this work
A VLSI architecture of JPEG2000 encoder
Copyright @ 2004 IEEEThis paper proposes a VLSI architecture of JPEG2000 encoder, which functionally consists of two parts: discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and embedded block coding with optimized truncation (EBCOT). For DWT, a spatial combinative lifting algorithm (SCLA)-based scheme with both 5/3 reversible and 9/7 irreversible filters is adopted to reduce 50% and 42% multiplication computations, respectively, compared with the conventional lifting-based implementation (LBI). For EBCOT, a dynamic memory control (DMC) strategy of Tier-1 encoding is adopted to reduce 60% scale of the on-chip wavelet coefficient storage and a subband parallel-processing method is employed to speed up the EBCOT context formation (CF) process; an architecture of Tier-2 encoding is presented to reduce the scale of on-chip bitstream buffering from full-tile size down to three-code-block size and considerably eliminate the iterations of the rate-distortion (RD) truncation.This work was supported in part by the China National High Technologies Research Program (863) under Grant 2002AA1Z142
Measurement of surface potential decay of corona-charged polymer films using the pulsed electroacoustic method
In this paper, the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) technique that allows the determination of space charge in a dielectric material has been used to monitor the electrical potential decay of corona-charged polyethylene films of different thicknesses. To prevent possible disturbance on the surface charge during the PEA measurements, two thin polyethylene films were placed on both sides of the corona-charged sample. Charge profiles measured at different times were used to calculate the potential across the sample. The obtained potential decay was compared with the potential measured using the conventional method. A good agreement has been obtained. More importantly, the charge profile obtained using the PEA technique indicates that bipolar charge injection has taken place
