The detection algorithm is based on the enhanced amplitude and polarization information provided by the wavelet transform coefficients of the raw seismic data. The algorithm detects phases, determines arrival times and indicates the seismic event direction from three component seismic data that represents the ground displacement in three orthogonal directions. The essential concept is that strong features of the seismic signal are present in the wavelet coefficients across several scales of time and direction. The P-phase is detected by generating a function using polarization information while S-phase is detected by generating a function based on the transverse to radial amplitude ratio. These functions are shown to be very effective metrics in detecting P and S-phases and for determining their arrival times for low signal-to-noise arrivals. Results are compared with arrival times obtained by a human analyst as well as with a standard STA/LTA algorithm from local and regional earthquakes and found to be consistent.展开更多

This approach is based on the concept of sharing-buffer insertion and dynamic programming approach combined with a bottom-up rectilinear Steiner tree construction. The performances include the timing delay and the quality of signal waveform. The experimental results show that our proposed approach is scalable and obtains better performance than SP-tree and graph-RTBW approaches for the test signal nets.展开更多

The analytical solution for the relationship between forcing frequency and amplitude of vibration is obtained by Galerkin's method. Finally, the paper analyses the effect of the transverse shear on the vibration of the plate and gives the ratio of nonlinear period to linear period for nonlinear free vibration of the plate.展开更多

This paper presents an algorithm, called ACO-Steiner, for RSMT construction based on ant colony optimization (ACO). An RSMT is constructed with ants' movements in Hanan grid, and then the constraint of Hanan grid is broken to accelerate ants' movements to improve the performance of the algorithm. This algorithm has been implemented on a Sun workstation with Unix operating system and the results have been compared with the fastest exact RSMT algorithm, GeoSteiner 3.1 and a recent heuristic using batched greedy triple construction (BGTC). Experimental results show that ACO-Steiner can get a short running time and keep the high performance. Furthermore, it is Mso found that the ACO-Steiner can be easily extended to be used to some other problems, such as rectilinear Steiner minimal tree avoiding obstacles, and congestion reduction in global routing.展开更多

The study is motivated by the physical design of VLSI: The rectilinear case corresponds to the currently used M-architecture, which uses either horizontal or vertical routing, while the octilinear case corresponds to a new routing technique, X-architecture, that is based on the pervasive use of diagonal directions. The experimental studies show that the X-architecture demonstrates a length reduction of more than 10-20%. In this paper, we make a theoretical study on the lengths of SMTs in these two planes. Our mathematical analysis confirms that the length reduction is significant as the previous experimental studies claimed, but the reduction for three points is not as significant as for two points. We also obtain the lower and upper bounds on the expected lengths of SMTs in these two planes for arbitrary number of points.展开更多

Any such graph is said tobe k--rectilinear. No matter what k is, an obvious necessary condition for k-rectilinearity is that thedegree of each vertex does not exceed four.Our main result is that every planar graph H satisfying this condition is 3--rectilinear:in fact,it is 2--rectilinear with the only exception of the octahedron. We also outline a polynomial-timealgorithm which actually constructs a plane embedding of H with at most 2 bends (3 bends if H isthe octahedron) on each edge. The resulting embedding has the property that the total number ofbends does not exceed 2n, where n is the number of vertices of H.展开更多
