In this paper, we propose a new joint transmit and receive spatial/frequency-domain filtering for single-carrier (SC) multipleinput multiple-output (MIMO) eigenmode transmission using iterative interference cancellation (IC). Iterative IC is introduced to a previously proposed joint transmit and receive spatial/frequency-domain filtering based on minimum mean square error criterion (called join...

Standard spring constant calibration methods are compared when applied to higher eigenmodes of cantilevers used in dynamic atomic force microscopy (dAFM). Analysis shows that Sader's original method (Sader et al 1999 Rev. Sci. Instrum. 70 3967-9), which relies on a priori knowledge of the eigenmode shape, is poorly suited for the calibration of higher eigenmodes. On the other hand, the thermal ...

Jet engines need to be certified before going into service, i. e., any dangerous vibration has to be detected. Therefore the eigenmodes, displayed as curves in Campbell diagrams, need to be identified first. At the moment this is done manually by engineers. In this paper we introduce a way of automatically detecting eigenmodes in Campbell diagrams by introducing an extension of Hough transform.

We present numerical simulations of the kinematic induction equation in order to examine the dynamo efficiency of an axisymmetric von Kármán-like flow subject to time-dependent nonaxisymmetric velocity perturbations. The numerical model is based on the setup of the French von Kármán-sodium dynamo (VKS) and on the flow measurements from a water experiment conducted at the University of Navarra i...

The magnetic field measured in the Madison dynamo experiment shows intermittent periods of growth when an axial magnetic field is applied. The geometry of the intermittent field is consistent with the fastest-growing magnetic eigenmode predicted by kinematic dynamo theory using a laminar model of the mean flow. Though the eigenmodes of the mean flow are decaying, it is postulated that turbulent...
