This study provides a comprehensive review of data analysis methods and signal processing techniques in gravitational wave detection. The research begins by introducing the characteristics of gravitational wave signals and the challenges faced in their detection, such as extremely low signal-to-noise ratios and complex noise backgrounds. It then systematically analyzes the application of time-frequency analysis methods in extracting transient gravitational wave signals, including wavelet transforms and Hilbert-Huang transforms. The study focuses on discussing the crucial role of matched filtering techniques in improving signal detection sensitivity and explores strategies for template bank optimization. Additionally, the research evaluates the potential of machine learning algorithms, especially deep learning networks, in rapidly identifying and classifying gravitational wave events. The study also analyzes the application of Bayesian inference methods in parameter estimation and model selection, as well as their advantages in handling uncertainties. However, the research also points out the challenges faced by current technologies, such as dealing with non-Gaussian noise and improving computational efficiency. To address these issues, the study proposes a hybrid analysis framework combining physical models and data-driven methods. Finally, the research looks ahead to the potential applications of quantum computing in future gravitational wave data analysis. This study provides a comprehensive theoretical foundation for the optimization and innovation of gravitational wave data analysis methods, contributing to the advancement of gravitational wave astronomy.展开更多

A new AI with some additional laser pulses for implementing large momentum transfer was also put forward, in order to reduce the effect of shot noise and laser frequency noise. We use a sensitivity function to analyze all possible configurations of the new AI and to distinguish how many mo- menta are transferred in a specific configuration. By analyzing the new configuration, we further explore a detection scheme for gravitational waves, in particular, that ame- liorates laser frequency noise. We find that the amelioration occurs in such a scheme, but novelly, in some cases, the frequency noise can be canceled completely by using a proper data processing method.展开更多

This new analysis shows that in the GW150914 event, the signals from the collision of two black holes are very similar to the 32.5 Hz noise sources observed in both of LIGO’s detectors. It also points out that these 32.5 Hz noise sources are powered by a 30 Hz sub harmonic, coming from the 60 Hz power system. In the GW1226 event, the same analysis points out that the NR template is very similar to the 120 Hz noise source. Therefore, the signals recorded in these events were probably generated by some small changes with the 60 Hz frequency in the US power grid. This can be caused, for example, by a power variation in the DC link, which can appear in both detectors in the same 10 ms time window. As this kind of power grid occurrence did not change the voltage levels, it may have gone unnoticed by LIGO’s electrical power supply’s monitoring system.展开更多

The propagation of the Lamb waves in plates exhibits many modes and dispersion characteristics, which have great influence on fouling detection. The relative distribution of the in-plane and out-of-plane displacement of the mode across the thickness of the plate will determine the sensitivity of the mode to a particular loading condition. By considering the dispersion and multi-mode characteristics of guided waves, an interdigital polyvi- nylidene fluoride (PVDF) transducer is designed to realize the mode selection of gnided waves, and a single a0 mode is used for guided wave detection. Fouling detection experiments are conducted in the laboratory using epoxy adhesive on a thin plate. Using the interdigital PVDF transducer, three fouled areas are detected. Using one of the time-frequency analysis methods, the waveforms are further processed. This also demonstrates the validity of this method of fouling detection.展开更多

At all frequencies, both phase velocity and group velocity of the lowest torsional mode T(0,1) are constant and equal to shear wave velocity. T(0,1) mode at all frequencies is the fastest torsional mode. In the experiments, T(0,1) mode is excited and received in pipes using 9 thickness shear vibration mode piezoelectric ceramic elements. Furthermore, an artificial longitudinal defect of a 4 m long pipe is detected using T(0,1) mode at 50 kHz. Experimental results show that it is feasible for longitudinal defect detection in pipes using T(0,1) mode of ultrasonic guided waves.展开更多

By utilizing Kennard's shell equations and combining with Helmholtz equations of flow field, the coupling equations of submarine fluid-filled pipeline for n=0 axisymmetrical wave motion are set up. Analytical expressions of wave speed are obtained for both s=1 and s=2 waves, which correspond to a fluid-dominated wave and an axial shell wave, respectively. The numerical results for wave speed and wave attenuation are obtained and discussed subsequently. It shows that the frequency depends on phase velocity, and the attenuation of this mode depends strongly on material parameters of the pipe and the internal and the external fluid fields. The characteristics of PVC pipe are studied for a comparison. The effects of shell thickness/radius ratio and density of the contained fluid on the model are also discussed. The study provides a theoretical basis and helps to accurately predict the situation of submarine pipelines, which also has practical application prospect in the field of pipeline leakage detection.展开更多

LISA would be sensitive to much lower range of frequencies from SMBH mergers. Apart from these cataclysmic burst events, there are innumerable sources of radiation which are continuously emitting gravitational waves of all frequencies. These include a whole mass range of compact binary and isolated compact objects as well as close planetary stellar entities. In this work, quantitative estimates are made of the gravitational wave background produced in typical frequency ranges from such sources emitting over a Hubble time and the fluctuations in the <i>h</i> values measured in the usual devices. Also estimates are made of the high frequency thermal background gravitational radiation from hot stellar interiors and newly formed compact objects.展开更多

Thus, a twistorbased synchronous sliding mode control is investigated in this paper to solve the control problem of relative attitude and position among separated spacecraft modules. The twistor-based control design and the stability proof are implemented using the Modified Rodrigues Parameter(MRP).To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed control method, this paper presents a case study of separated spacecraft flying control considering the mass uncertainty and external disturbances. In addition, a simulation study of the Proportional-Derivative(PD) control is also presented for comparison. The results indicate that the twistor-based sliding mode controller can ensure global asymptotic stability. The states converge fast with ultra-precision and ultra-stability in both the attitude and position. Moreover, the proposed twistor-based sliding mode control system is robust to the mass uncertainty and external disturbances.展开更多

It produces signals based on the cardiac-pulmonary motion of an animal in real-time. The system with the non-invasive gating consists of a digital signal processor (DSP), an electrocardiography (ECG) detection circuit and a thermoeouple circuit. An enhanced R wave detection algorithm based on zero crossing counts is used to adjust the low sample frequency associated with the respiratory rate of an animal. The thermocouple recognizes the respiration phase by sensing the temperature changes of the nasal airflow of an animal. The proposed gating can accurately generate the gating signal for freely breathing mice (weight of around 0.03 kg), and its respiratory signal is too weak to be detected. Apart from non-invasiveness, compared with other existing gating techniques, it occupies minimal space at lower cost. Actually, it can be used in micro-computed tomography (CT) and other systems needed to detect the cardiac-pulmonary motion. Several tests validate that the proposed cardiac-pulmonary gating can generate the gating signal as required. By using the gating technique, the image resolution is improved.展开更多

While the transition brings unprecedented opportunities for exploring massive black hole binaries(MBHBs), it also imposes complex challenges in data analysis, particularly in parameter estimation amidst confusion noise.Addressing this gap, we utilize scalable normalizing flow models to achieve rapid and accurate inference within the Taiji environment. Innovatively, our approach simplifies the data's complexity, employs a transformation mapping to overcome the year-period time-dependent response function, and unveils additional multimodality in the arrival time parameter. Our method estimates MBHBs several orders of magnitude faster than conventional techniques, maintaining high accuracy even in complex backgrounds. These findings significantly enhance the efficiency of GW data analysis, paving the way for rapid detection and alerting systems and enriching our ability to explore the universe through space-based GW observation.展开更多

文摘As an important part of lifeline engineering in the development and utilization of marine resources, the submarine fluid-filled pipeline is a complex coupling system which is subjected to both internal and external flow fields. By utilizing Kennard's shell equations and combining with Helmholtz equations of flow field, the coupling equations of submarine fluid-filled pipeline for n=0 axisymmetrical wave motion are set up. Analytical expressions of wave speed are obtained for both s=1 and s=2 waves, which correspond to a fluid-dominated wave and an axial shell wave, respectively. The numerical results for wave speed and wave attenuation are obtained and discussed subsequently. It shows that the frequency depends on phase velocity, and the attenuation of this mode depends strongly on material parameters of the pipe and the internal and the external fluid fields. The characteristics of PVC pipe are studied for a comparison. The effects of shell thickness/radius ratio and density of the contained fluid on the model are also discussed. The study provides a theoretical basis and helps to accurately predict the situation of submarine pipelines, which also has practical application prospect in the field of pipeline leakage detection.
文摘The breaking of wind-generated waves is an important phenomenon in the ocean, having close relation to many aspects of the ocean, such as air-sea interaction, ocean wave dynamics, oceanic remote sensing and ocean engineering. The first problem encountered in both its theoretical study and practical measurement is how to detect the breaking of waves.
文摘Gravitational waves have been detected in the past few years from several transient events such as merging stellar mass black holes, binary neutron stars, etc. These waves have frequencies in a band ranging from a few hundred hertz to around a kilohertz to which LIGO type instruments are sensitive. LISA would be sensitive to much lower range of frequencies from SMBH mergers. Apart from these cataclysmic burst events, there are innumerable sources of radiation which are continuously emitting gravitational waves of all frequencies. These include a whole mass range of compact binary and isolated compact objects as well as close planetary stellar entities. In this work, quantitative estimates are made of the gravitational wave background produced in typical frequency ranges from such sources emitting over a Hubble time and the fluctuations in the <i>h</i> values measured in the usual devices. Also estimates are made of the high frequency thermal background gravitational radiation from hot stellar interiors and newly formed compact objects.

文摘A synchronous control of relative attitude and position is required in separated ultraquiet spacecraft, such as drag-free, disturbance-free, and distributed spacecraft. Thus, a twistorbased synchronous sliding mode control is investigated in this paper to solve the control problem of relative attitude and position among separated spacecraft modules. The twistor-based control design and the stability proof are implemented using the Modified Rodrigues Parameter(MRP).To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed control method, this paper presents a case study of separated spacecraft flying control considering the mass uncertainty and external disturbances. In addition, a simulation study of the Proportional-Derivative(PD) control is also presented for comparison. The results indicate that the twistor-based sliding mode controller can ensure global asymptotic stability. The states converge fast with ultra-precision and ultra-stability in both the attitude and position. Moreover, the proposed twistor-based sliding mode control system is robust to the mass uncertainty and external disturbances.

文摘Non-invasive cardiac-pulmonary gating is proposed to improve the imaging resolution. It produces signals based on the cardiac-pulmonary motion of an animal in real-time. The system with the non-invasive gating consists of a digital signal processor (DSP), an electrocardiography (ECG) detection circuit and a thermoeouple circuit. An enhanced R wave detection algorithm based on zero crossing counts is used to adjust the low sample frequency associated with the respiratory rate of an animal. The thermocouple recognizes the respiration phase by sensing the temperature changes of the nasal airflow of an animal. The proposed gating can accurately generate the gating signal for freely breathing mice (weight of around 0.03 kg), and its respiratory signal is too weak to be detected. Apart from non-invasiveness, compared with other existing gating techniques, it occupies minimal space at lower cost. Actually, it can be used in micro-computed tomography (CT) and other systems needed to detect the cardiac-pulmonary motion. Several tests validate that the proposed cardiac-pulmonary gating can generate the gating signal as required. By using the gating technique, the image resolution is improved.

文摘Gravitational wave(GW) astronomy is witnessing a transformative shift from terrestrial to space-based detection, with missions like Taiji at the forefront. While the transition brings unprecedented opportunities for exploring massive black hole binaries(MBHBs), it also imposes complex challenges in data analysis, particularly in parameter estimation amidst confusion noise.Addressing this gap, we utilize scalable normalizing flow models to achieve rapid and accurate inference within the Taiji environment. Innovatively, our approach simplifies the data's complexity, employs a transformation mapping to overcome the year-period time-dependent response function, and unveils additional multimodality in the arrival time parameter. Our method estimates MBHBs several orders of magnitude faster than conventional techniques, maintaining high accuracy even in complex backgrounds. These findings significantly enhance the efficiency of GW data analysis, paving the way for rapid detection and alerting systems and enriching our ability to explore the universe through space-based GW observation.
