Simulation results show that plasmon-induced transparency （PIT） occurs in the transmission spectra, and the sharp asymmetric Fano lines increase the sensitivity to 1.4 ×10^3 nm/RIU. We also analyze the properties of the structure with different radii of the nanodisk and the length of the tooth cavity. Moreover, we find that the PIP only happens when the staggered system is around a fixed location with different separate distances, which is not similar to the previous researches. Our model may be important to photonic-integrated circuits and the sensitivity in sensors.展开更多

Two problems were solved: firstly, because the GPS real-time deformation series with a high sampling rate contain coloured noise, the multiple Kalman filter model requires the white noise, and the multiple Kalman filters model is augmented by a shaping filter in order to reduce the colored noise; secondly, the multiple Kalman filters model with shaping filter can detect the deformation epoch in real-time and improve the quality of GPS measurements for the real-time deformation applications. Based on the comparisons of the applications in different GPS time series with different models, the advantages of the proposed model were illustrated. The proposed model can reduce the colored noise, detect the smaller changes, and improve the precision of the detected deformation epoch.展开更多

The former is based on a fractional-order proportional-integral(PI) unit, with a non-integer order integral action, while the latter can be of integer or non-integer type. To satisfy robustness and dynamic performance specifications, the feedback controller is designed by a loop-shaping technique in the frequency domain. In particular, optimality of the feedback system is pursued to achieve input-output tracking. The setpoint pre-filter is designed by a dynamic inversion technique minimizing the difference between the ideal synthesized command signal(i.e., a smooth monotonic response) and the prefilter step response. Experimental tests validate the methodology and compare the performance of the proposed architecture with well-established control schemes that employ the classical PIbased symmetrical optimum method with a smoothing pre-filter.展开更多

The choice of parameters of a CR–RCm digital filter directly affects its performance in terms of energy resolution and pulse count rate in digital nuclear spectrometer systems. A numerical recursive model of a CR differential circuit and RC integration circuit is derived, which shows that the shaping result of CR–RCm is determined by the adjustment parameter (k, it determines the shaping time of the shaper) and the integral number (m). Furthermore, the amplitude– frequency response of CR–RC^m is analyzed, which shows that it is a bandpass filter;the larger the shaping parameters (k and m), the narrower is the frequency band. CR–RC^m digital Gaussian shaping is performed on the actual sampled nuclear pulse signal under different shaping parameters. The energy spectrum of 137Cs is measured based on the LaBr3(Ce) detector under different parameters. The results show that the larger the shaping parameters (m and k), the closer the shaping result is to Gaussian shape, the wider is the shaped pulse, the higher is the energy resolution, and the lower is the pulse count rate. For the same batch of pulse signals, the energy resolution is increased from 3.8 to 3.5%, and the full energy peak area is reduced from 7815 to 6503. Thus, the optimal shaping parameters are m -3 and k -0.95. These research results can provide a design reference for the development of digital nuclear spectrometer measurement systems.展开更多

Differing from existing works that often computed the intrinsic surface property of visibility in imaging space, a novel approach is proposed to approxi- mate the attribute in object space using Gauss map and Ray tracing. With the presented shape descriptor, mesh saliency detection, which refers to reasoning about which regions or points of a surface axe important, is more sensible, especially when 3D models fall into two categories： （1） the models possess significant interior/exterior structures; （2） the models contain regions where the contrast in visibility is high. For the models that are out of the categories, saliencies achieved by our approach are comparable to or even better than those of state-of-the-axt methods.展开更多

The parallel peak filter is introduced to provide high-gain magnitude in the concerned frequency range of open-loop transfer function. Different from almost all the known peak filters that possess second-order structures, we explore in this paper bow high-order peak filters can be designed to improve the loop shaping performance. The main idea is to replace some of the constant coefficients of common second-order peak filter by frequency-related transfer functions, and then differential evolution （DE） algorithm is adopted to perform optimal design. We creatively introduce chromosome coding and fitness function design, which are original and the key steps that lead to the success of DE applications in control system design. In other words, DE is modified to achieve a novel design for hard disk drive control. Owing to the remarkable searching ability of DE, the expected shape of sensitivity function can be achieved by incorporating the resultant high-order peak filter in parallel with baseline feedback controller. As a result, a seventh-order peak filter is designed to compensate for contact-induced vibration in a high-density HDD servo system, where the benefits of high-order filter are clearly demonstrated.展开更多

Shaped like a waistdrum, the VCF is mainly made of TiNi shape memory alloy-wire. It has a subulate wire frame which can intercept the thrombus on each side. Its medial body is made up of straight shape memory alloy-wire . Every pillar is bound by several shape memory alloy springs. This type of inferior vena cava filter has a good resistance to fatigue and is hard to be broken. Through animal experiments its framework has been proved to be lasting. Neither deformation nor fragmentation happened when the VCF had been kept in the body for a long time. The thrombus interception efficiency of our VCF is higher than imported VCFs. The filter is unfavorable for thrombosis. After implantation, the IVC was completely unimpeded and no displacement occurred. Moreover the VCF did little damage to the Wall of vein. Neither IVC perforation nor haematoma occurred after the operation.展开更多
