Climate change has gained widespread attention, and the rapid growth of the economy in China has generated a considerable amount of carbon emissions. Zhejiang Province was selected as a study area. First, the energy-related carbon emissions from 2000 to 2014 were accounted for, and then the Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) decomposition model was applied to analyse the driving factors unde...

Introduction: Decoupling of multi-element coil is becoming increasingly important due to the parallel transmitting application. The conventional method to decouple coil elements distributed in the azimuthal direction is to use the Butler matrix to form the Eigen modes of the multi-element set-up [1]. Because the Eigen modes of the birdcage coil are orthogonal to each other, the elements after B...

One of the technical challenges in designing a dedicated transceiver radio frequency (RF) array for MR imaging in humans at ultrahigh magnetic fields is how to effectively decouple the resonant elements of the array. In this work, we propose a new approach using tilted microstrip array elements for improving the decoupling performance and potentially parallel imaging capability. To investigate ...

In solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the magic angle spinning technique is often used to remove anisotropic interactions and generate high resolution spectra. However, these interactions contain valuable information about molecular structure and dynamics. In particular, the dipole-dipole coupling strength between two spin-1/2 nuclei is a direct reflection of their interatomic...

The possibility of a heavy supersymmetric spectrum at the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is considered and the decoupling from the low energy electroweak scale is analyzed in detail. The formal proof of decoupling of supersymmetric particles from low energy physics is stated in terms of the effective action for the particles of the Standard Model that results by integrating out all the s...

The decoupled access/execute architecture described a machine that enables the access of memory values to be decoupled from the consumption of those values. Although never widely adopted in its original form, the decoupled design is a compelling way to tolerate memory latency. In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a novel implementation of decoupling, one based on the following two refineme...

In this work we develop a numerical framework to investigate the renormalization of the nonMarkovian dynamics of an open quantum system to which dynamical decoupling is applied. We utilize a non-Markovian master equation which is derived from the non-Markovian quantum trajectories formalism. It contains incoherent Markovian dynamics and coherent Schrödinger dynamics as its limiting cases and is...

How to effectively use the decoupling capacitors to mitigate power/ground noise on high-speed power delivery systems is investigated in this paper. The objective is to determine the minimum number of added decoupling capacitors and their position on the printed circuit boards (PCB). The genetic algorithm (GA) is employed to implement optimizing the accurate choice of the decoupling capacitors a...

In this paper, a systematic procedure is proposed for the generalized design of decoupling multivariable controller, which may result in a complete decoupling, partial decoupling or no decoupling, to achieve a better disturbance rejection response. Before the decoupling, a relative load gain (abbr. RLG) is defined to determine which control loops need to be decoupled and which control loops don...
