A method to construct a large transmission matrix (TM) of highly scattering media based on an algorithm is presented. For imaging through media, measuring TM enables image reconstruction with high spatial resolution; however, it difficult operate in practice because the time required for calibration proportional number calibrated input modes. Instead directly achieving using advanced hardware, ...

A novel mixing approach for achieving a good dispersion of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in ethylene- propylene diene monomer (EPDM) matrix has been investigated. In this approach EPDM was modified with vinyltrimethoxysilane (VTMS) during melt mixing. In addition the effect of MWCNT concentration on mechanical and rheological properties of modified EPDM has been studied. The formulated...

A novel composite right/left handed transmission line (CRLH TL) is proposed, for the first time using the Wunderlich-shaped dentiform capacitor and meandered-line short-circuited stub inductor (SSI). The CRLH TL features a larger value of CL and in turn a lower resonance relative to the previous one employing an interdigital capacitor and an SSI. The unique feature of the CRLH TL is applied to ...

Transmission eigenvalues are points in the spectrum of the interior transmission operator, a coupled 2x2 system of elliptic partial differential equations, where one unknown function must satisfy two boundary conditions and the other must satisfy none. We show that the interior transmission eigenvalues are discrete and depend continuously on the contrast by proving that the interior transmissio...

In this study, a polymer-silica nanocomposite using the sol-gel method was synthesized in three steps at room temperature. The nanocomposite material was formed with an organic compound (polyethylene glycol) and inorganic silica nanoparticles. Furthermore, the size and the distribution of nanoparticles in the polymer matrix were characterized by a transmission electron microscope (TEM).  In add...
