    Treballs Finals de Grau de Matemàtiques, Facultat de Matemàtiques, Universitat de Barcelona, Any: 2015, Director: Joan Gispert BrasFuzzy logic is a logic that studies the vague reasoning. In this work we introduce fuzzy logic and we develop it as multivalued logic. We choose to build semantically and syntactically the MTL logic, the most basic of fuzzy logics, and prove the most important completeness theorems

    Analysis of low altitude atmospheric turbulence data measured in flight

    All three components of turbulence were measured simultaneously in flight at each wing tip of a Beech D-18 aircraft. The flights were conducted at low altitude, 30.5 - 61.0 meters (100-200 ft.), over water in the presence of wind driven turbulence. Statistical properties of flight measured turbulence were compared with Gaussian and non-Gaussian turbulence models. Spatial characteristics of the turbulence were analyzed using the data from flight perpendicular and parallel to the wind. The probability density distributions of the vertical gusts show distinctly non-Gaussian characteristics. The distributions of the longitudinal and lateral gusts are generally Gaussian. The power spectra compare in the inertial subrange at some points better with the Dryden spectrum, while at other points the von Karman spectrum is a better approximation. In the low frequency range the data show peaks or dips in the power spectral density. The cross between vertical gusts in the direction of the mean wind were compared with a matched non-Gaussian model. The real component of the cross spectrum is in general close to the non-Gaussian model. The imaginary component, however, indicated a larger phase shift between these two gust components than was found in previous research

    Development and application of a non-Gaussian atmospheric turbulence model for use in flight simulators

    Get PDF
    A method is described for generating time histories which model the frequency content and certain non-Gaussian probability characteristics of atmospheric turbulence including the large gusts and patchy nature of turbulence. Methods for time histories using either analog or digital computation are described. A STOL airplane was programmed into a 6-degree-of-freedom flight simulator, and turbulence time histories from several atmospheric turbulence models were introduced. The pilots' reactions are described

    Nonlinear anisotropic dielectric metasurfaces for ultrafast nanophotonics

    Get PDF
    We report on the broadband transient optical response from anisotropic nanobrick amorphous silicon particles, exhibiting Mie-type resonances. A quantitative model is developed to identify and disentangle the three physical processes that govern the ultrafast changes of the nanobrick optical properties, namely two-photon absorption, free-carrier relaxation, and lattice heating. We reveal a set of operating windows where ultrafast all-optical modulation of transmission is achieved with full return to zero in 20 ps. This is made possible due to the interplay between the competing nonlinear processes and despite the slow (nanosecond) internal lattice dynamics. The observed ultrafast switching behavior can be independently engineered for both or- thogonal polarizations using the large anisotropy of nanobricks thus allowing ultrafast anisotropy control. Our results categorically ascertain the potential of all-dielectric resonant nanophotonics as a platform for ultrafast optical devices, and reveal the pos- sibility for ultrafast polarization-multiplexed displays and polarization rotators
