We report a dramatic change in the intensity of a Raman mode with applied magnetic field, displaying a gigantic magneto-optical effect. Using the nonmagnetic layered material MoS2 as a prototype system, we demonstrate that the application of a magnetic field perpendicular to the layers produces a dramatic change in intensity for the out-of-plane vibrations of S atoms, but no change for the in-p...

The mechanical behavior of cold rolled sheets is significantly related to residual stresses that arise from bending and unbending processes. Measurement of residual stresses is mostly limited to surface measurement techniques. Experimental determination of stress variation through thickness is difficult and time-consuming. This paper presents a closed form solution for residual stresses, in whi...

This paper presents analysis of extremely simple second-order digital lter. In our analysis we take into account the nonlinearity caused by the overrow eeect. This digital lter corresponds to a nonlinear semidynamical system on the plane depending on two parameters. The symbolic theory for analysing this system is introduced. Several theorems on existence and stability of periodic orbits are gi...

The plane sweep technique is one of the best known paradigms for the design of geometric algorithms [2]. Here an imaginary line sweeps over the plane while computing the property of interest at the moment the sweep line passes the required information needed to compute that property. There are also three-dimensional problems that are solved by space sweep, where a plane sweeps the space. This p...

An elastic analysis is presented for the tensile stretching and bending of a plate containing a surface crack penetrating part-through the thickness, Fig. 1. The treatment is approximate, in that the two-dimensional generalized plane stress and KirchhoffPoisson plate bending theories are employed, with the part-through cracked section represented as a continuous line spring. The spring has both...

We perform a detailed analysis on the scaling properties of the total γ∗p cross section, σγ∗p. We write the cross section as a product of two functions W and V representing, respectively, the dynamical degrees of freedom and the contribution from the valence partons. Analyzing data from HERA and fixed target experiments we find that V is nearly independent of Q and concentrated at large x, whil...

In this paper we were able to achieve tracking of a plane section on any well-textured surface. Our approach achieves stability in tracking and we have optimized the algorithm’s speed enough so that we could run it on an Android device. After tracking a planar section, we were able to place 3D objects on the planar selection. This is demonstrated with a cube projection. By calibrating the camer...
