The majority of linear-optical nondestructive implementations of universal quantum gates are based on single-photon resolving detectors. We propose two implementations, which are nondestructive (i.e., destroying only ancilla states) and work with conventional detectors (i.e., those which do not resolve number of photons). Moreover, we analyze a recently proposed scheme of Wang et al. [J. Opt. S...

Large numbers of vibration signals of wood-based panels are unsteady and complicated, which means that detection can be difficult. The wavelet transform is an effective method to detect these signals, which are otherwise difficult to detect using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). This paper presents a study on nondestructive detection of bubble defects seen in poplar laminated veneer lumber (LV...

The ultrasonic infrared thermal wave method is a new nondestructive testing technique. It is remarkably sensitive and convenient for detection of small vertical cracks, such as fatigue cracks in metals. Pulses of ultrasonic launched by the ultrasonic emitter as heat source are excited into the sample, if there are some cracks in the material, they will be revealed through their heat generation,...

The influence of temperature on the transport properties cover concrete is crucial for adjusting in situ measurements. This study investigated effects storage room air permeability and water sorptivity Four conditions (5, 20, 30, 35 °C) with constant relative humidity (60%RH) were applied to 11 specimens produced using two types cement, five water-to-cement ratios, four curing periods. Three no...

ultrasonic testing (ut), a nondestructive testing (ndt) method, is under development for quality determination of agricultural products, although it has long been used in the food industry. determination and measurement of product quality are important in modern agricultural research. noninvasive/nondestructive quality determination is a novel aspect of the postharvest process in which paramete...

In this paper, four different nondestructive testing (NDT) methods and static bending tests were done on poplar (Populus ussuriensis Kom.) and birch (Betula platyphylla Suk.) Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL). The effects of compression ratio on the modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) of LVL with vertical load and parallel load were investigated. There were four compression rat...
