Description of statistical methods and a routine for determining the parameters of a model in processing experimental results
A computer routine is suggested for selecting the optimum parameters of a theoretical model and determining the errors in them due to errors in physical measurements and for evaluating the conformity of theory with the experiment. The paper describes the specification sequence for the input data and the format of the calculation results. Sample printouts are appended
Spectral transformation in the SOFI complex for processing photographic images on the ES computer, part 1
A description is given of three programs catalogued in the form of object modules in the library of a system for processing photographic images computer. PFT is the subprogram of the multi-dimensional BPF of real-valued information, in the operative computer memory. INRECO is a subprogram-interface between the real and complex formats for representing two-dimensional spectra and images. FFT2 is a subprogram for calculating the correlation functions of the image using the previous subprograms
Programs for high-speed Fourier, Mellin and Fourier-Bessel transforms
Several FORTRAN program modules for performing one-dimensional and two-dimensional discrete Fourier transforms, Mellin, and Fourier-Bessel transforms are described along with programs that realize the algebra of high speed Fourier transforms on a computer. The programs can perform numerical harmonic analysis of functions, synthesize complex optical filters on a computer, and model holographic image processing methods
A description of a system of programs for mathematically processing on unified series (YeS) computers photographic images of the Earth taken from spacecraft
A description of a batch of programs for the YeS-1040 computer combined into an automated system for processing photo (and video) images of the Earth's surface, taken from spacecraft, is presented. Individual programs with the detailed discussion of the algorithmic and programmatic facilities needed by the user are presented. The basic principles for assembling the system, and the control programs are included. The exchange format within whose framework the cataloging of any programs recommended for the system of processing will be activated in the future is displayed
Comparison of Image Restoration Methods for Lunar Epithermal Neutron Emission Mapping
Orbital measurements of neutrons by the Lunar Exploring Neutron Detector (LEND) onboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter are being used to quantify the spatial distribution of near surface hydrogen (H). Inferred H concentration maps have low signal-to-noise (SN) and image restoration (IR) techniques are being studied to enhance results. A single-blind. two-phase study is described in which four teams of researchers independently developed image restoration techniques optimized for LEND data. Synthetic lunar epithermal neutron emission maps were derived from LEND simulations. These data were used as ground truth to determine the relative quantitative performance of the IR methods vs. a default denoising (smoothing) technique. We review and used factors influencing orbital remote sensing of neutrons emitted from the lunar surface to develop a database of synthetic "true" maps for performance evaluation. A prior independent training phase was implemented for each technique to assure methods were optimized before the blind trial. Method performance was determined using several regional root-mean-square error metrics specific to epithermal signals of interest. Results indicate unbiased IR methods realize only small signal gains in most of the tested metrics. This suggests other physically based modeling assumptions are required to produce appreciable signal gains in similar low SN IR applications
Pressure-induced alpha-to-omega transition in titanium metal: A systematic study of the effects of uniaxial stress
We investigated the effects of uniaxial stress on the pressure-induced
alpha-to-omega transition in pure titanium (Ti) by means of angle dispersive
x-ray diffraction in a diamond-anvil cell. Experiments under four different
pressure environments reveal that: (1) the onset of the transition depends on
the pressure medium used, going from 4.9 GPa (no pressure medium) to 10.5 GPa
(argon pressure medium); (2) the a and w phases coexist over a rather large
pressure range, which depends on the pressure medium employed; (3) the
hysteresis and quenchability of the w phase is affected by differences in the
sample pressure environment; and (4) a short term laser-heating of Ti lowers
the alpha-to-omega transition pressure. Possible transition mechanisms are
discussed in the light of the present results, which clearly demonstrated the
influence of uniaxial stress in the alpha-to-omega transition.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figures, 1 tabl
A New Mechanism for the Alpha to Omega Martensitic Transformation in Pure Titanium
We propose a new direct mechanism for the pressure driven alpha to omega
martensitic transformation in pure titanium. A systematic algorithm enumerates
all possible mechanisms whose energy barriers are evaluated. A new, homogeneous
mechanism emerges with a barrier at least four times lower than other
mechanisms. This mechanism remains favorable in a simple nucleation model.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
ФОТОЭЛЕКТРИЧЕСКИЕ ПРЕОБРАЗОВАТЕЛИ В СИСТЕМЕ СО СПЕКТРАЛЬНЫМ РАСЩЕПЛЕНИЕМСОЛНЕЧНОЙ ЭНЕРГИИ
This paper presents results on the simulation of photo converters in a spectral splitting system where solar radiation is separated into three spectral ranges (∆λ1<500 nm, ∆λ2 = 500−725 nm and ∆λ3>725 nm) by means of dichroic filters and then converted to electrical energy by photoconverters based on InGaN/GaN, GaAs/AlGaAs single−junction heterostructures and monocrystalline silicon c−Si. Special attention is paid to the absorption spectrum spreading due to more efficient conversion of the ultraviolet part of the spectrum. The total efficiency of the system varies from 21% to 37% depending on the design of heterostructures.Представлены результаты моделирования фотоэлектрических преобразователей в системе со спектральным расщеплением солнечной энергии, в которой солнечное излучение разделяется с помощью дихроичных фильтров на три спектральных диапазона (∆λ1 < 500 нм, ∆λ2 = 500÷725 нм, ∆λ3 > 725 нм) и затем преобразуется в электроэнергию фотоэлектрическими преобразователями на основе однопереходных гетероструктур InGaN/GaN, GaAs/AlGaAs и монокристаллического кремния c−Si. Особое внимание уделено исследованию расширения спектрального диапазона поглощения системы за счет более эффективного преобразования ультрафиолетовой части спектра. Суммарный КПД системы на всем спектре варьируется от 21 до 37 % в зависимости от дизайна гетероструктур однопереходных фотоэлектрических пре-образователей и вариантов оптических систем
Структурные, электрические и люминесцентные характеристики ультрафиолетовых светодиодов, выращенных методом хлорид–гидридной эпитаксии
Electrical and luminescent properties of near−UV light emitting diode structures (LEDs) prepared by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) were studied. Variations in photoluminescence and electroluminescence efficiency observed for LEDs grown under nominally similar conditions could be attributed to the difference in the structural quality (dislocation density, density of dislocations agglomerates) of the GaN active layers, to the difference in strain relaxation achieved by growth of AlGaN/AlGaN superlattice and to the presence of current leakage channels in current confining AlGaN layers of the double heterostructure.Изучены электрические и люминесцентные характеристики светодиодных структур (СД), излучающих в ближней ультрафиолетовой (УФ) области и выращенных методом хлорид−гидридной эпитаксии. Обнаружены различия в характеристиках УФ СД, выращенных в номинально одинаковых условиях, которые приписывают различиям в структурном совершенстве (плотности дислокаций и дислокационных агломератов) в активных слоях GaN, разнице в степени релаксации напряжений, достигаемой с помощью сверхрешеток AlGaN/AlGaN, а также существованию каналов токовых утечек в слоях AlGaN, ограничивающих заряд в двойной гетероструктуре.
Development of time domain behanioural non-linear models for microwave devices and ICS from vectorial large-signal measurements and simulations
We have developed a procedure to determine a behavioural non-linear model for microwave devices and ICs that is directly based on vectorial large-signal measurements. For the examples of a HEMT and an amplifier IC, we represent the terminal currents in the time domain by a dynamic model that is fitted to the embedded terminal voltages
