This paper present a new technique in digital waveform synthesizers based on the use of the first quadrant in order to present the other three quarters. This will reduce the size of the memory locations to the quarter, and increase the number of samples per period four times in comparison with the full wave synthesizer.

When unity reflectance is approached, the Fourier-transform method of calculating the reflectance spectrum of an optical grating modulated by a slowly varying envelope becomes unacceptably inaccurate. The modified Fourier transform method of Bovard [Appl. Opt. 29, 24 (1990)] can achieve complete accuracy for quarter-wave gratings. We report herein the extension of Bovard's method to non-quarter...

A multivariate analysis was performed to provide objective descriptions of visually perceived differences in feeder-cattle frame size and muscle thickness. Three hundred and twenty-four yearling feeder steers were selected to represent USDA classifications for frame size (Large, L; Medium, M; Small, S) and muscle thickness (No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3). The frame-size classification (F) of each stee...

Ta2O5∕SiO2 high reflection (HR) interference coatings for λ ∼ 1 μm offer superior performance at high irradiance conditions. However, these coatings are not good candidates for high peak power conditions in comparison toHfO2∕SiO2 multilayer stacks. Here we show that the modification of the top layers design of a quarter wave Ta2O5∕SiO2 high reflector leads to 4–5 fold increase in the laser dama...

P A P ER Abstract Metamaterials offer exciting opportunities that enable precise control of light propagation, its intensity and phase by designing an artificial medium of choice. Inducing birefringence via engineered metamolecules presents a fascinating mechanism to manipulate the phase of electromagnetic waves and facilitates the design of polarimetric devices. In this paper, a high-efficienc...

A numerical investigation on the dynamic large-signal analysis using a time-domain traveling wave model of quarter wave-shifted distributed feedback semiconductor lasers diode with a Gaussian distribution of the coupling coefficient (GDCC) is presented. It is found that the single-mode behavior and the more hole-burning effect corrections of quarter wave-shifted distributed feedback laser with ...

In this study, the boundary element method is formulated to evaluate hydrodynamic characteristics of bodies including free surface effect. The method is based on two equations, the perturbation potential boundary integral and the pressure Kutta condition, which are solved simultaneously. The method uses isoparametric elements for both quantity and geometric on the boundary. The method is first ...

The meaning of the hypertropy word is the increasing size.Heart hypertropy is symptoms of increase the thickness of the heart muscle that the left ventricular hypertrophy of them is the most common.The causes of hypertrophy heart disease are high blood pressure , aortic valve stenosis and sport activities respectively. Assessment of that by using ECG signal analysis is essential Because the ris...
