We describe a fast, accurate method for determination of the optical coefficients of 'semi-infinite' and 'infinite' turbid media. For the particular case of time-resolved reflectance from a biological medium, we show that a single Monte Carlo simulation can be used to fit the data and to derive the absorption and reduced scattering coefficients. Tests with independent Monte Carlo simulations sh...

Amethod is presented for calculating the frequencies of non-retarded surface plasmons propagating on a semi-inifinite medium with a surface profile described by a one-dimension quasiperiodic function. The profiles are generated, in analogy with previous work on quasiperiodic superlattices, by repeating unitary cells constructed according to an inflation rule. Dispersion relations are obtained f...

the rapid melting of a semi- infinite body due to the absorption of a cw laser beam radiation has been studied. the enthalpy technique for the solution of phase change problems has been used in an explicit finite difference form to calculate the transient temperature distribution in the semi-infinite body and the growth rate of the melt pool. the technique has been modified so that it is not ne...

The weld quality is highly related to the thermal history of and there have been many trials monitor using an infrared (IR) sensor. To obtain real temperature a surface based on brightness values measured by IR camera, emissivity value must be derived. For accurate assessment emissivity, one aware melting point isotherm. profiles only depend three factors during laser processing, specified as c...

‎Linear semi-infinite programming problem is an important class of optimization problems which deals with infinite constraints‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎to solve this problem‎, ‎we combine a discretization method and a neural network method‎. ‎By a simple discretization of the infinite constraints,we convert the linear semi-infinite programming problem into linear programming problem‎. ‎Then‎, ‎we use...
