The implications of approximate dynamical constants of motion for statistical analysis of highly excited vibrational spectra are investigated. The existence of approximate dynamical constants is related to localized chaos and partial assignability of a "chaotic spectrum." Approximate dynamical constants are discussed in a dynamical symmetry breaking formulation of the transition from periodic t...

First results using the new Sentinel-1 SAR look very promising but the special interferometric wideswath data acquired in the TOPS mode makes InSAR processing challenging. The steep azimuth spectra ramp in each burst results in very stringent co-registration requirements. Combining the data of the individual bursts and sub-swaths into consistent mosaics requires careful “book-keeping” in the ha...

To produce an interpretation of the surface kinetic energy as measured by altimeters, a survey is made of the vertical structure of kinetic energy profiles in a large number of globally distributed long current meter records. Although the data are geographically confined primarily to a latitude band in the North Pacific, to the North Atlantic, and to a few moorings in the South Atlantic, the re...

High-pressure Raman spectroscopic experiments of anglesite, PbSO4, were carried out in a diamond anvil cell up to about 35 GPa at room temperature. Two stages of changes in the pattern of wavenumber-versus-pressure plot were observed in most of the vibrational modes. The first stage of change is the kink in the slope of wavenumber-versus-pressure plot at about 14 GPa, indicating a change in the...

We measure the low lying eigenmodes of an overlap Dirac operator on 2–flavor staggered configurations. By comparing the eigenmode distribution to the predictions of Random Matrix Theory we test to what accuracy staggered configurations describe continuum QCD. The agreement between the numerical data and RMT implies that at our quark mass values the lattice artifacts of the staggered configurati...

In this paper dynamic damping properties of a nominated flexible structural adhesive have been identified using an extended-direct modal based joint identification method. It has been revealed that damping characteristics of adhesive are correlated to both frequency and mode shape. Young’s and shear moduli increase with frequency but damping on the other hand, decrease. The results showed that ...

The paper presents a super-twisting sliding mode (STSM) regulator with neural networks (NN) of direct power command (DPC) for controlling the active/reactive power of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) using a two-level space vector pulse width modulation (2L-SVPWM). Traditional DPC strategy with proportional-integral (PI) controllers (DPC-PI) has significantly more active/reactive power r...

We review recent burst-mode receiver technologies beyond 10Gb/s for broadband access and fast optical-switching networks, focusing on multi-level modulations. The performance of newly developed 25Gb/s 3-level burst-mode receiver using low-cost 10Gb/s APDs is also presented.

it seems that the general applicability of the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (qtaim) oncharacterizing the bonded interactions is still questionable even afier 30 years since its formulation. fordemonstrating the generality of bonding schemes in qta im, ea( isomers were chosen as the modelsystems and the results from molecular charge density analysis and vibrational normal modes werecompa...
