A distinct signature of compact extra dimensions would be a Kaluza-Klein tower gravitational waves. Motivated by this prospect, we compute the corresponding spectrum on warped toroidal background. We evaluate in particular impact warp factor spectrum. To that end, use complete H standard string compactifications, generated D-branes and orientifolds, thus connecting to recent works stringy de Si...

Instabilities of nonlinear waves on unbounded domains manifest themselves in different ways. An absolute instability occurs if the amplitude of localized wave packets grows in time at each fixed point in the domain. In contrast, convective instabilities are characterized by the fact that even though the overall norm of wave packets grows in time, perturbations decay locally at each given point ...

We have added a new Figure 3, where we show two frequency spectra. The first spectrum (Figure 3 a) is in absence of the breaking waves, where the first peak indicates the edge wave frequency and the second peak indicates the surface elevation frequency. The second frequency spectrum (Figure 3 b) is plotted in presence of breaking wave and indicates the suppression of the peak for the edge wave ...

The shifted angular spectrum method allows a reduction of the number of samples required for numerical off-axis propagation of scalar wave fields. In this work, a modification of the shifted angular spectrum method is presented. It allows a further reduction of the spatial sampling rate for certain wave fields. We calculate the benefit of this method for spherical waves. Additionally, a working...

We present a SCUBA submillimetre (450 and 850 μm) survey of the environment of 105 IRAS point sources, selected from the Wood & Churchwell (1989a) and Kurtz et al. (1994) radio ultracompact (UC) Hii region surveys. We detected a total of 155 sub-mm clumps associated with the IRAS point sources and identified three distinct types of object: ultracompact cm-wave sources that are not associated wi...

The new international standard IEEE802.11p (WAVE) defined enhancements to IEEE802.11 (Wi-Fi). A new mobile e-business platform of Wi-Fi and WAVE is described. Based on cognitive radio, the popular wireless network Wi-Fi can collaborate with WAVE in their common unlicensed spectrum band and licensed spectrum band. As a core technology in the cognitive radio field, OFDM is introduced, and a novel...

Laboratory seakeeping test under irregular wave load is essential for studying seakeeping performances of marine and offshore structures. One of the key techniques in such a sort of test is how to assure the quality of wave load. By assuring the quality of wave load, we mean that man-made irregular wave series exerting on a test model should have a given power spectrum. From a view of optimal c...

Cylindrical steel tanks are important components of many industrial plants such as oil refineries and chemical plants. Usually failure of cylindrical tanks leads to serious consequences. During the past earthquakes such as 1964 Alaska and 1999 Turkey seismic performance of cylindrical tanks revealed that tanks are seismically vulnerable. Therefore, evaluation of seismic performance of these str...
