In this paper we afford the fault detection and isolation problem in the context of linear discrete-time state-space models whose state equation is affected both by faults and by disturbances. Model as well as measurement errors, described as zero-mean white gaussian noises, are also assumed to additively act both on the state and on the output equations. Upon introducing several deterministic ...

interferometric gravitational wave detectors must be isolated from seismic noise. The VIRGO vibration isolator, called superattenuator, is fully effective at frequencies above 4 Hz. Nevertheless, the residual motion of the mirror at the mechanical resonant frequencies of the system are too large for the interferometer locking system and must be damped. A multidimensional feedback system, using ...

In a three-guide coupler with multimode central waveguide more than two modes of the entire structure participate in the coupling between the outer waveguides. Using a three mode approximation we found simple conditions for complete power transfer between the outer waveguides: the device length has to match certain multiples of the conventionally defined coupling length. The specific form of th...

We observe the phenomenon of the Faraday-like effect, which occurs in periodically poled lithium niobate with odd number of domains (OPPLN) by the transverse electro-optic (EO) effect under the quasi-phase-matching condition. In this case, light rotates in the reverse sense during the forward and the backward path, and OPPLN shows a nonreciprocal process that is similar to the magneto-optical F...

Base isolation has been used as one of the most wildly accepted seismic protection systems that should substantially dissociate a superstructure from its substructure resting on a shaking ground, thereby sustainably preserving entire structures against earthquake forces as well as inside non-structural integrities. Base isolation devices can operate very effectively against near-fault (NF) grou...

This paper proposes a quasi-zero stiffness (QZS) isolator based on an inclined trapezoidal beam to explore its advantages in low-frequency passive vibration isolation. The nonlinear of the due buckling effect is investigated through finite element simulation, and linear positive spring connected parallel form QZS with high-static low-dynamic performance. natural frequency region simulated analy...

The pursuit of high-resolution flow fields is meaningful for the development hypersonic technology. Flow field super-resolution (SR) based on deep learning a novel and effective method to provide HR in scramjet isolator. Single-path multiple-path network models convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been developed augment spatial resolution experimental supersonic field. single-path model us...

We investigate the operation of optical isolators based on magneto-optics waveguide arrays beyond the coupled mode analysis. Semi-vectorial beam propagation simulations demonstrate that evanescent tail coupling and the effects of radiation are responsible for degrading the device's performance. Our analysis suggests that these effects can be mitigated when the array size is scaled up. In additi...

An infrared polarizer consisting of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) gratings is designed with transmittance exceeding 85% and polarization extinction ratio (ER) higher than 70 dB in the wavelength range from 1.5 to 8 μm. Moreover, the polarizer retains excellent performance even when the incident angle increases to as large as 80°. The MIM gratings support magnetic polariton (MP) in the near-infrar...
